Declaring the FTSE Eurotop 100® Options Contract Dormant
At the request of the COMEX Governors Committee, the NYMEX Board of Directors has voted to declare the FTSE Eurotop 100® Options Contract dormant. There has been no trading in this contract for more than one year; and there is no expectation that there will be interest in it in the future. The FTSE Eurotop 100® Options Contract Terms and Conditions affect a "Special Matter" under the terms of the COMEX By-Laws. Accordingly, COMEX Division Members have ten (10) days to submit a petition signed by owners of at least 155 COMEX Division Memberships requesting a vote for the COMEX Division Members to disapprove the amendments, pursuant to the procedures set forth under COMEX By-Law 205(D). Following this 10-day period, if a petition is not received, or if the amendment is not disapproved, the Proposed Contract Terms and Conditions and the Rule Amendments will be submitted to the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC).
