e-miNY(sm) Trading Permit Renewal/Termination
At the February 4, 2004 meeting of the NYMEX Board of Directors, it was decided that a termination date would be set for the crude and natural gas e-miNYsm Floor Trading Permits originally issued to the NYMEX Members on June 17, 2002.

Thirty (30) days from the date of this notice, any e-miNYsm Trading Permit holder that does not intend to resume participation in the program, will forfeit their e-miNYsm Trading Permit and their designated e-miNYsm booth space.

All e-miNYsm Trading Permit holders that intend to remain on the NYMEX floor in their designated booths must reregister with the Exchange within this thirty (30) day time period.

After the date of termination, the remaining e-miNYsm Floor Trading Permit holders will be allowed to continue in the e-miNYsm Floor Trading Permit Program. NYMEX Members may submit new applications for e-miNYsm Trading Permits until such time that e-miNYsm natural gas futures and e-miNYsm crude futures reach an average daily volume of 3,000 contracts each for a period of 22 business days. Once this threshold has been reached, no more e-miNYsm Trading Permits will be issued.

Any new applications for the e-miNY Trading Permit Program are subject to the terms and conditions set forth by the Exchange.

To register for renewal of the e-miNYsm Trading Permits and further information on the e-miNYsm Trading Permit program, please contact Jim Quinn at 212-299-2352 or email jquinn@nymex.com.
