## Effects PRIA read

- Strict Listing Eligibility Thresholds: cost, medium. To be eligible as an underlying, a security must meet strict thresholds including estimated deliverable supply over 20 million shares, a minimum market capitalization of at least $100 billion for initial listing, and a minimum average daily value of transactions (ADVT) of at least $450 million over…
- Position Limits Set at 200,000 Contracts: cost, medium. Each Contract will be subject to position limits set at 200,000 contracts in the context of 100-share contracts (or the equivalent for other contract sizes), and because the Contracts have no fixed expiration, those limits apply at all times. The Exchange will review limits at least semi-annually a…
- Nearly Continuous Trading Hours: benefit, low. Contracts will trade from Sunday at 20:00 Eastern Time through Friday at 17:00 Eastern Time, except during holidays, maintenance windows, or other periods specified by the Exchange. The Exchange may further modify trading hours by rule or notice.
- Funding Payments and Funding Rate Rules: mixed, medium. Open positions in Contracts are subject to Funding Payments determined by a Funding Rate methodology set in each Contract's Product Appendix; Funding Payments may be processed through the Clearing House as cash adjustments separate from variation margin. The Exchange may suspend, defer, modify, or…
- Who May Solicit or Accept Orders: cost, low. Only futures commission merchants, introducing brokers, commodity trading advisors, commodity pool operators, or associated persons subject to suitability rules comparable to a national securities association registered under Section 15A(a) of the Exchange Act may solicit, accept any order for, or…
- Corporate Action Adjustment Rules: benefit, low. The Exchange will publish Corporate Action Circulars describing treatment of corporate events. Ordinary cash dividends will have no adjustment; stock splits and similar events adjust open position quantity and reference price to preserve economic exposure; special cash dividends, rights offerings,…
- Planned Wind-Down Notice Requirement: benefit, low. For planned wind-downs, terminations, or delistings of a Contract, the Exchange will provide no less than 10 Business Days' notice except where shorter notice is necessary to protect investors or maintain fair and orderly markets. The Exchange will use the last trading day's Daily Settlement Price…
- Clearing Will Be Through Nodal Clear: cost, medium. All Contracts shall be cleared by the Clearing House (Nodal Clear, LLC, or any successor designated by the Exchange) and the Exchange will maintain linked clearing arrangements and risk-management procedures; the Clearing House retains authority under its own rules over margin collection, settlemen…
