In-the-money option positions will be determined using this cash settlement value. • In-the-money option positions will be automatically exercised during the 7:00 p.m. final reconciliation beginning on September 21, 2001. Unmatched option trades can be resolved anytime prior to September 28, 2001, with in-the-money option trades for the September contract automatically exercising during the final reconciliation on the day that they clear. Between Friday, September 21, 2001 and Friday, September 28, 2001, out-of-the-money option trades will expire during the final reconciliation on the day that they clear. • Cleared futures positions will be cash settled beginning with the final reconciliation on Friday evening, September 21, 2001.
