Such an emergency exists in particular as soon as a Trading Participant is inhibited to ensure orderly trading conditions from its notified and approved trading locations, e. g. prevention measures, extraordinary sickness rate or sovereign measures (e.g. quarantine, access limitations issued by authorities).

- description of the individual emergency of the Trading Participant
- concrete designation of the emergency location from which trading is conducted including detailed contact data (phone number and e-mail address)
- expected duration of the measure
The Trading Participant must ensure that orderly exchange trading is at no time jeopardised by participation in exchange trading at Eurex Deutschland from outside its notified and approved trading location(s). Trading Participants must always comply with the applicable exchange regulations, in particular those of the Exchange Rules of Eurex Deutschland and the Conditions for Trading at Eurex Deutschland.
It is expressly pointed out that the Management Board is entitled to make additional orders in specific individual cases to ensure orderly exchange trading conditions (§ 15 paragraph 4 German Stock Exchange Act).
