London Stock Exchange Service Announcement Service Update 8

Date 08/09/2008

The purpose of this Service Announcement is to inform you that the Exchange will be suspending connectivity to Trading for a short period of time from 14:45 BST to ensure a controlled reconnection for customers. During this time customers are required to reset their connection status to ensure legitimate connections can be established once connectivity is re-enabled.

Once connectivity has been re-established, it will be possible to enter or delete orders, though electronic execution remains disabled.

Continuous trading will re-commence at the end of the auction period, which will be at least 15 minutes after notice is given.
