NASDAQ OMX intends to implement the basket method for adjustment of stock options, forwards and futures. The basket method will be used in cases where a company, which shares serve as underlying for derivatives, distributes shares in another company. The method is applicable when the distributed shares will be listed on the Exchange in connection to the distribution. The method implies that no adjustment is made to the original strikes but the underlying will be a basket consisting of both the original contract base and the distributed share in accordance with the terms and conditions of the offer. As such, in cases where the distributed share will be listed, NASDAQ OMX would not be dependent on valuations from analytics or the ratio between VWAP on the Ex-day and VWAP on the day preceding the Ex-day to determine the adjustment factor. NASDAQ OMX intends to replace the conversion method (4.5.2.2 Rules and Regulations of NASDAQ OMX Derivatives markets) with the basket method with effect from June 15, 2010.
