Component Change Made To Dow Jones Transportation Average - United Continental Holding, Inc. To Replace Continental Airlines, Inc.

Dow Jones Indexes, a leading global index provider, today announced a component change in the Dow Jones Transportation Average.

Continental Airlines, Inc. Class B (NYSE: CAL) will be deleted from the Dow Jones Transportation Average at the open of trading on Friday, October 1, 2010. Continental is being removed due to the airline’s merger with UAL Corporation. Concurrent with the merger, UAL Corp. will change its name to United Continental Holding, Inc. and its exchange listing to the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE: UAL) from NASDAQ.

UAL Corp. was in the Dow Jones Transportation Average from January 2, 1970, until December 6, 2002, when it was removed from the index because the company filed for bankruptcy protection and trading of its stock was suspended on the New York Stock Exchange. (UAL Corp. was renamed Allegis from early 1987 until June 1988, when the original name was readopted).

The Dow Jones Transportation Average tracks 20 U.S. transportation stocks. Other members of the Dow Jones Averages family are the Dow Jones Industrial Average, the Dow Jones Utility Average, the Dow Jones Composite Average and The Global Dow.
