Eurex
The Management Boards of the Eurex Exchanges decided to change the standard contract size of individual equity options.
The conversion will be done by means of a pseudo capital adjustment with an R-factor of 1. Existing positions will be converted to series with version number 1 (maintaining the old contract size) and new series with version number 0 (new standard contract size) will be generated. In the products Geberit (GEBN) and
SAP (SAP), series with version number 1 already exist. Therefore, these series will be converted to series with version number 2.
The conversion will take place in three blocks, effective on Thursdays, February 24, March 3 and March 10, 2011.
Please note that all open orders and quotes will be deleted on the day before the conversion becomes effective after close of trading.
