Changes to Fee Schedule

The CBOT® is announcing today changes to the fee schedule. The first change is effective on December 4, 2006, for the launch of the two Over-The-Counter Ethanol Calendar Swap contracts. For OTC Ethanol Calendar Swap contracts, a $1.75 surcharge per side and $0.06 clearing fee per side will apply to these transactions. No exchange transaction fees will be assessed.

Beginning on January 1, 2007, the CBOT will assess exchange transaction fees and surcharges for both fungibility and directed fungibility transactions. Regular exchange transaction fees by account type for each product will apply for fungibility and directed fungibility transactions per the existing CBOT fee schedule. Additionally, an exchange surcharge of $0.50 per contract for fungibility transactions for the Dow complex (mini-sized Dowsm futures, $10 DJIAsm futures, and $25 Dowsm futures) and $0.75 for directed fungibility transactions for the metals futures complex (mini-sized Gold futures, mini-sized Silver futures, 100 oz. Gold futures, 5,000 oz. Silver futures) and agricultural futures complex (mini-sized Corn futures, mini-sized Wheat futures, and mini-sized Soybean futures).
