Transocean Ltd.: Settlement Modalities for Stock Options

Eurex Clearing AG hereby informs on the temporary special settlement modalities for stock options on Transocean Ltd. (CH0048265513) for deliveries out of exercises of Eurex options transactions. This modification only concerns Clearing Members with a settlement account at Clearstream Banking Frankfurt AG (CBF).

Deliveries in Transocean shares out of SIX SIS AG require manual matching via account 7121 of the respective Clearing Member at CBF. In doing so, only unit booking will take place. Cash booking will be made via the 6-series account (in Swiss franc, CHF) at CBF (I).

However, offset payments in Swiss franc will be made via the CHF SIC account (SNB).
The procedure of manual matching is obligatory until implementation of an automatic solution which is scheduled for the second quarter of 2011.
