Standard Convention Upfront Payment

Assume one enters into the 1YR CDS quoted in Figure 6-10. Suppose this CDS follows the SNAC convention of 100bps. What is the upfront payment? How does the standard 1YR hazard rate differ from the 1YR par hazard rate of Problem 6-1?

In Figure 6-10, par CDS spreads, a continuously compounded interest rate, a recovery rate, and day count conventions are given. Calculate the hazard rates using the inputs in Figure 6-10 and complete the output table for at least the first four maturities.
