The following language is inserted immediately fol- lowing the last paragraph on page 22 of the Booklet. The following is a description of certain special fea- tures of binary stock options: As in the case of other stock options, the exercise price of a binary stock option is ordinarily slated as a price per share of the underlying security. Premium val- ues may be stated in an amount that must be multiplied by a multiplier to obtain the premium price per option contract. The listing exchange specifies the method for deter- mining the exercise settlement value of the underlying stock for a binary stock option. This method may be based on a volume weighted average price for a speci- fied time period preceding expiration, such as the last trading day before expiration. The exercise settlement value for a stock underlying a binary option is the value of the stock as reported by the reporting authority desig- nated by the listing options market for that purpose.

Adjustments in the terms of binary stock options will ordinarily be made for stock dividends, stock distribu- tions and stock splits. subject to the exception stated above where an adjustment panel determines to treat a stock distribution as ordinary. If an adjustment panel determines to make an adjustment to binary stock options to reflect a stock divi- dend. stock distribution, or stock split, the exercise price of the option will ordinarily be proportionately reduced — regardless of whether a whole number of shares, or other 131 CONFIDENTIAL - PURSUANT TOEFEESCIMOIMS8616 P. 6(e) CONFIDENTIAL SDNY_GM_00244800 EFTA01393169
