Eurex
In its session on October 5, 2009, the extraordinary general meeting of the company Hypo Real Estate Holding AG decided, amongst others, to transfer the shares of the minority shareholders onto the majority shareholder, the Financial Market Stabilization Fund (FMS) against payment of a cash compensation of EUR 1.30 per share. The squeeze-out of minority shareholders was registered in the commercial register at the Local Court of Munich on October 13, 2009. Consequently, exchange listing of the Hypo Real Estate Holding AG shares was discontinued at the end of trading on October 13, 2009. Therefore, October 13, 2009 was also, as already announced on that day via the Market Supervision Messages window, last trading
day of Eurex options and the Eurex stock futures contract on shares of Hypo Real Estate Holding AG (HRX / HRXF). Exercises can still be made up to and including October 20, 2009 and will be cash-settled.
Please note:
Automatic exercise parameters will not be applied so that exercise of positions must be made manually by each participant.
As communicated before, the relevant share price for cash compensation will be EUR 1.30. For further information please see Eurex circular 166/09. Open positions after October 21, 2009 will be closed out in batch processing on October 21, 2009 with effect from October 22, 2009. All open orders will be deleted with immediate effect.
