New York Portfolio Clearing Overview

1. New York Portfolio ClearingOverview Walter L. Lukken Chief Executive Officer

2. What isNew York Portfolio Clearing LLC (NYPC) 2 50% / 50% joint venture created by NYSE Euronext and DTCC Create a single “one-pot” VaR risk methodology to aggregate risk of the combined portfolio across fixed income product classes of derivatives and cash transactions, thus generating margin efficiencies for hedged portfolios ranging from 15 to 30 percent Will provide increased transparency for regulators, market participants and the clearinghouse to identify and moderate systemic market risks “Open Access” structure—NYPC will launch with products listed on NYSE Liffe U.S., but will expand to other futures exchanges and clearinghouses once operational Margin savings initially focused on proprietary “House” positions but intended to expand to customer positions pending appropriate regulatory changes Regulatory approvals needed by CFTC as a derivatives clearing organization as well as the SEC and NY Fed. CFTC out for comment; SEC about to be Anticipated go live: Q1 2011, pending regulatory approval

5. Benefits of NYPC over Existing Futures Clearing Model • Transformational • Capital Efficiencies: NYPC is the first clearing solution to “bridge” the securities and futures worlds by calculating one margin call for fixed income securities held at DTCC’s Fixed Income Clearing Corporation (FICC) and U.S Treasury and Eurodollar futures held at NYPC, thus recognizing the offsetting risks of these positions and significantly improving the capital efficiency to firms • Operational Advancements: Deliveries on NYPC’s futures contracts will be seamlessly integrated with the cash securities held at FICC through a “locked-in” delivery process, thus eliminating the “boxing up” inefficiencies and costs inherent in the current bond futures delivery system

6. Benefits of NYPC over Existing Futures Clearing Model II • Transparency • Sunshine is the Best Antiseptic: NYPC will provide the first single view of risk across cash and derivatives for regulators, market participants and the clearinghouse. Aggregating information about an individual participant’s total risk in cash and derivatives will provide early opportunities to identify systemic risks • Ahead of its Time: As envisioned by Congress in the recently-passed “Dodd-Frank” Regulatory Reform Bill, NYPC will provide an “open access” clearinghouse that brings the risk-reducing benefits of central counterparty clearing to derivatives and the resulting transparency to the regulators and market

7. Benefits of NYPC over Existing Futures Clearing Model III • Competition and Choice • “The growth of U.S. futures business, which has greatly influenced global growth, has come from competition and innovation.  This challenge from [NYPC] offers both.”--John Lothian Newsletter • This “open access” clearinghouse will spur competition among futures trading platforms by allowing other futures exchanges and clearinghouses to integrate into the “one-pot” margining system, thus challenging the current interest rate product dominant exchange and reducing costs to the marketplace • NYPC provides fair access to other futures exchanges by allowing them to join NYPC under non-discriminatory terms once it is operational • Other derivatives clearinghouses (DCOs) may also have access to the “one-pot” by joining NYPC as a limited purpose participant (LLP), similar to other clearing linkages in existence • This LPP concept preserves the uniform risk methodology and default management process that was at the core of DTCC’s decision to partner with NYSE to build NYPC and minimizes the complexity and cost of replicating the integration process for all new entrants

8. NYPC—Day One Products to be Cleared • NYPC will clear interest rate futures from NYSE Liffe US at launch but will be open to other products from other exchanges once NYPC is operational • At NYPC’s launch, NYSE Liffe U.S. will list Eurodollar futures as well as 2-year, 5-year, 10-year, 30-year US Treasury bond and Ultra-bond futures • Options on these futures as well as interest rate swaps are expected to be listed and cleared after go-live of NYPC

9. Risk Overview

10. Original Margin NYPC will use the VaR method to measure the risk associated with a given portfolio based on the following considerations: • VaR is commonly used in the fixed income securities industry and naturally incorporates the offsetting effects across diverse instruments such as cash, futures, options, etc. • Explicitly specified confidence level of 99 percent is applied to the final requirement and is verifiable • Customer positions will also be subject to the VaR methodology but not be eligible for “single-pot” treatment at launch until the SEC and CFTC reconcile their authorities

11. Variation Margin NYPC will calculate and pay/collect Variation Margin twice per day • The offsetting profits and losses based on a mark-to-market calculation for all futures and cash positions within the portfolio • End of Day Calculation – FICC & NYPC will calculate their respective funds settlement obligations • Intraday Calculation – both entities will have an intraday calculation 11

12. Guaranty Fund A Guaranty Fund will be designed to provide an additional layer of protection in the event of the default of a Clearing Member (CM) Total day-one amount of the Guaranty Fund is expected to be $100 million with approximately $50 million from clearing members and $50 million financial guaranty from NYSE Euronext Each NYPC Member and Common (FICC and NYPC) Member will contribute a minimum amount to the Guaranty Fund • Calculated daily, will be based on projected loss on liquidation of 1.5X “largest exposure” under “extreme but plausible” conditions • Target Guaranty Fund measured monthly and adjusted quarterly based on members’ open interest and volume Contributions (cash & eligible securities) will be held by NYPC in an account separate from original margin
