Market-Making in options: Change in quote obligations

1. Due to the re-composition of the EURO STOXX®50 index as of 23 September 2013, the related Advanced Market-Making (AMM) package (ESX50) will be changed, effective 1 October 2013. Accordingly, options on Deutsche Post (DPW) will replace options on Arcelor Mittal (ISPA).

2. As a consequence of the takeover of D.E MASTER BLENDERS 1753 by Oak Leaf B.V., options on D.E MASTER BLENDERS 1753 (DEM) will be discontinued and will, therefore, no longer be available for Market-Making. The number of exceptions in the Dutch AMM package will remain unchanged. This change will be effective on 1 October 2013.

As of 1 October 2013, the adjusted Market Maker Obligations will be published on the Eurex website www.eurexchange.com under the following link:
