 +An Effective Period is distinct from an [[public:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:e:effective_date|Effective Date]] and an [[public:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:e:execution_date|Execution Date]]. 
 + 
 +An Effective Date identifies the date on which the subject begins to apply or have effect. When an Effective Period has a defined start boundary, the Effective Date ordinarily identifies that boundary. 
 + 
 +An Execution Date identifies the date on which an Agreement or other instrument was executed. Execution does not necessarily cause the Agreement or all of its terms to become effective immediately. 
 + 
 +An Effective Period is also distinct from the time at which information is recorded, received, processed, or stored. The Effective Period identifies when the subject applies. A processing timestamp identifies when a system performed an activity involving the information.
