The Management Boards of the Eurex Exchanges and the Executive Board of Eurex Clearing AG decided to introduce 51 new single stock dividend futures (SSDFs) on the current EURO STOXX 50® index components and the new index constituent BMW AG, effective October 1, 2010. The new contracts will be based on dividends of 1000 underlying shares and the minimum price movement will be 0.001 EUR. The existing SSDFs contracts with a multiplier of 100 will be gradually set on “HALT” for trading and clearing if there is no open interest. Therefore, the existing SSDFs will remain available for trading and clearing in parallel to the new products for a certain period of time.
In addition, new transaction fees will be applied for the new contracts as of the same date.

The following information is included in this circular:
A. Product information including the new transactions fees
