<p style="margin: 6pt 10.7pt 0.0001pt 38.7pt; text-align: justify; line-height: 102%;">1.1 A Nations Cup may only be organised on the occasion of a CSIO. In principle, the European CSIO season is reserved for outdoor Events only, unless otherwise agreed by the Chair of the Jumping Committee together with the FEI Secretary General, in exceptional circumstances.</p>
<p style="margin: 5.95pt 0cm 0.0001pt 38.7pt;">1.2. At least three NFs must take part in this Competition for it to be recognised as a Nations Cup.</p>
<p style="margin: 6.35pt 0cm 0.0001pt 38.7pt;">1.3. If, for any reason, this Competition is organised under another name, the words "Nations Cup" must be added as a subtitle.</p>
<p style="margin: 6.2pt 10.75pt 0.0001pt 38.7pt; line-height: 102%;">1.4. It is the only Competition in which official teams represent NFs and to preserve its special character, there must be no individual placing.</p>
<p style="margin: 6.1pt 10.7pt 0.0001pt 38.7pt; text-align: justify; line-height: 102%;">1.5. The total prize money must be at least equal to 50% of the amount provided for the Grand Prix Competition or for the Competition with the highest prize money unless the FEI Secretary General gives his approval for a modification to this formula.</p>
<p style="margin: 6.1pt 10.75pt 0.0001pt 38.7pt; text-indent: 0cm;">Prize money must be awarded to all teams participating in the second round.</p>
<p style="margin-left: 38.7pt;">1.6. The Competition takes place over two rounds, over the same course during the course of the same day.</p>
<p style="margin-left: 38.7pt;">1.7. The Nations Cup is judged under Table A not against the clock with a time allowed in both rounds.</p>
<p style="margin: 6.35pt 0cm 0.0001pt 38.7pt;">2. Different categories of Nations Cup Competitions</p>
<p style="margin: 6.25pt 10.75pt 0.0001pt 38.7pt; text-indent: 0cm;">According to the total amount of prize money for the Event, a 5*, 4*, 3*, 2* or 1* CSIO can be held.</p>
<p style="margin-left: 38.7pt;">3. Obstacles and other technical requirements</p>
<p style="margin: 6.35pt 0cm 0.0001pt 38.7pt;">3.1 The number and dimensions of the obstacles and the length of the course must be within the following limits:</p>

<p style="margin: 5.95pt 5.55pt 0.0001pt 33.7pt; text-align: justify; line-height: 102%;">5.5. In the event of an accident or illness to an Athlete and/or Horse, between the submission of the declaration and one hour before the start of the Competition, the Athlete and/or Horse may on production of a certificate from an officially recognised medical doctor and/or with the permission of the Veterinary Commission and after approval by the Ground Jury be replaced by another Athlete and/or Horse entered with the definite entries for the official team (see JRs Art. 253).

<p style="margin-right: 6pt; text-align: justify; line-height: 103%;">6.1. The starting order of the teams in the first round is determined by a draw in the presence of the Ground Jury and the Chefs d'Equipe. The draw will take place at a time fixed by the OC in agreement with the Ground Jury.</p>

<p style="margin: 6.05pt 5.9pt 0.0001pt 33.7pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0cm; line-height: 102%;">Those teams equal on Penalties for sixth, seventh or eighth place (depending on the number of teams to take part in the second round) will be separated by the total times of the three best Athletes of each team in the first round.</p>
<p style="margin: 6pt 5.6pt 0.0001pt 33.7pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0cm; line-height: 102%;">The OC must decide during the draw for the Nations Cup whether the home team will return for the second round as an extra team, if it is not qualified among the six to eight teams eligible to take part. The home team will only be permitted to return for the second round, if there is a difference of not more than eight Penalties between the home team and the last qualified team for the second round.</p>

<p style="margin: 6pt 5.75pt 0.0001pt 33.7pt; text-align: justify; line-height: 103%;">8.2. If one Athlete of a team, participating with three Athletes in the first or second round, is eliminated or retires, the whole team is eliminated.</p>
<p style="margin: 5.85pt 5.8pt 0.0001pt 33.7pt; text-align: justify; line-height: 102%;">8.3. If a team is qualified to take part in the second round, an Athlete eliminated in the first round may start in the second round.</p>

<p style="margin: 6.35pt 5.6pt 0.0001pt 33.7pt; text-align: justify; line-height: 102%;">9.1 Classification of the teams not taking part in the second round is based on the total Penalties of the three best Athletes of each team in the first round. Teams with equality of Penalties are placed equal.</p>
<p style="margin-top: 6pt;">9.2. Placing of teams after the second round is decided as follows:</p>
<p style="margin: 6.35pt 5.6pt 0.0001pt 33.7pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0cm; line-height: 102%;">The total Penalties of the best three Athletes per team in the first round are added to the total Penalties of the best three Athletes per team in the second round.</p>
<p style="margin: 6pt 5.55pt 0.0001pt 33.7pt; text-align: justify; line-height: 102%;">9.2.1. In case of equality of Penalties for the first place, there will be a jump-off in which one Athlete per team will participate. The Chef d’Equipe determines which member of his team will participate in the jump-off. Any one of the four team members may take part in the jump-off.</p>
<p style="margin-top: 5.9pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0cm;">The jump-off takes place against the clock over a minimum of six obstacles.</p>
<p style="margin: 6.35pt 2cm 0.0001pt 33.7pt; text-indent: 0cm; line-height: 164%;">In case of equality of Penalties and time after the jump-off, the teams concerned will be placed equal first. Teams with equality of total Penalties for other places are placed equal.</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0cm;">10. Nations Cup at other Events</p>
<p style="margin: 6.35pt 5.55pt 0.0001pt 33.7pt; text-align: justify; line-height: 102%;">10.1. If a Nations Cup is organised at other Events, such as CSIOY, CSIOJ, CSIOCh or CSIOP, the provisions mentioned under paragraph 7 above apply.</p>
<p style="margin-top: 6pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0cm;">For the measurements of the obstacles and the course those given in the relevant FEI Rules and Regulations are applicable.</p>
<p style="margin: 6.35pt 5.7pt 0.0001pt 33.7pt; text-align: justify; line-height: 102%;">10.2. However, in case of equality of Penalties for the first place, there will be a jump-off in which all team Athletes may take part. The jump-off takes place against the clock over a minimum of six obstacles.</p>
<p style="margin: 6pt 5.8pt 0.0001pt 33.7pt; text-align: justify; line-height: 102%;">10.3. The Score in this jump-off is obtained by adding the Penalties incurred by the three best Athletes in each team, but in the event of further equality of Penalties, the times of these three Athletes in the jump-off added together will decide the winning team.</p>
<p style="margin-top: 5.9pt;">10.4. Teams with equality of total Penalties for other places are placed equal.</p>
