Market-Making: Adjustment of the Dow Jones EURO STOXX 50® AMM Package

In the course of the regular yearly index verification, STOXX Ltd. announced that effective September 21, 2009, Anheuser-Busch Inbev N.V. as well as CRH Plc. will be included in the Dow Jones EURO STOXX 50® Index. At the same time, Fortis N.V. and Renault S.A. will leave the named index.

Accordingly, Eurex will adjust the Dow Jones EURO STOXX 50® (ESX50) AMM package as follows: Stock options on Fortis (FO4) and Renault (RNL) will remain in the ESX50 AMM package until the end of the month and will be replaced by Anheuser-Busch Inbev (ITK) as of October 1, 2009. The number of exceptions will be reduced from 10 to 9. The number of instruments to be quoted within the ESX50 AMM package remains unchanged at 40, because an options contract on CRH Plc. is currently not listed at Eurex.
