Date 29/01/2010

1. Contracts to Be Delisted
C-COM is to delist the following five commodity futures contracts in the four markets;
Shell Eggs in Livestock Market
RSS3 and TSR20 in Rubber Markets
Aluminum in Aluminum Market
Natural Rubber Index in Natural Rubber Index Market
2. Date(s) of Delisting
The contracts are to be delisted shortly after both of the following two conditions are met.
The Two Conditions for Delisting
(1) Delisting is officially resolved in an Extraordinary Members Meeting scheduled to be held in March 2010, and
(2) The trading of the contract is suspended.
3. Procedures of Delisting
A Shell Eggs, RSS 3 and Natural Rubber Index (the Contracts Which Are Currently Traded)
(1) (1) No new Contract Months in and after October 2010 are to be started respectively in and after April (for RSS3 and Natural Rubber Index).and in and after May (for Shell Eggs) 2010. In other words, September 2010 Contract Month is to be the last Contract Month for those contracts.
(2) (2) The contracts are to be normally traded in all through September Contract Month. The trading is to be suspended from the business day immediately following the day when no open interests are outstanding at the close of business in any of the outstanding Contract Months (Trading Suspension Day).
(3) (3) The contract is to be delisted at an appropriate date, but shortly after the Trading Suspension Day.

Note: The trading of RSS3 is, however, to continue even after no open interests are outstanding, as far as the Natural Rubber Index Market has outstanding open interests, because C-COM RSS3 is a component of Natural Rubber Index.

B TSR20 and Aluminum (the Contracts Trading of Which Is Currently Suspended)

(1) Trading of those contracts continues to be suspended.
(2) The contract is to be delisted at an appropriate date in consideration of the timing of delisting of other contracts.
