4 1. Unrelenting focus on warehouse reform 3
5 Key principles of the Linked Load-In / Load-Out Rule (As revised following the 2013 Consultation) Target warehouses with queues over 50 calendar days All other warehouses unaffected Grandfather existing metal If no more metal is loaded-in, then loadout rates do not change Link load-out to load-in If more metal is loaded-in, then more metal needs to be loaded-out In the medium-term: Stops queues growing Shrinks queues 4
6 Legal update Legal issue LME legal update Consistent progress being made UK LEGAL SITUATION US LEGAL SITUATION Judicial Review brought by Rusal against introduction of the LILO Rule Complaints brought by direct and indirect purchasers of aluminium and direct purchasers of zinc alleging anti-trust conspiracy Initial finding for Rusal on 27 March 2014 Appeal on July 2014 Awaiting judgment LME immunity arguments in aluminium case granted on 25 August 2014 Aluminium antitrust case dismissed on 30 August 2014 Implementation of LILO delayed until judgment received followed by either introduction or reconsultation Further opportunity for plaintiffs to replead / appeal; LME maintains these complaints are without merit 5
7 Awaiting outcome of the appeal Core appeal scope Delivered / underway A comprehensive reform package Detailed, practical and balanced set of measures Creation of Physical Market Committee plus ongoing six-monthly reviews Further Warehouse data transparency Enhanced LME investigation and action powers for artificial queues Commitments of Traders transparency Separate load-out rate for steel Best-practice information barrier policy Enactment of the Proposal (with 50-day queue threshold) Enactment of warehouse logistical review Enactment of Warehousing Agreement legal review Rules changes to facilitate premium hedging solutions Assess powers to limit rents in queues as a future policy option Structural solution to high charges 6
8 Net load-in (thousand tonnes) Load-in is falling Continued impact of potential LILO introduction Continued pattern of reduced net load-out (or net load-out) since announcement of original Consultation Net load-out activity at Vlissingen (-133,616 tonnes from 2-Jul Aug-14) Warehouse operators apparently proceeding on the basis that LILO will be introduced Accordingly, stock growth capped, but not falling as quickly as would likely occur under LILO Reduced load-in during the Preliminary Calculation Period 1,200 1, (200) (400) (600) Impala Antwerp Pacorini Johor Pacorini Vlissingen Metro Detroit Pacorini New Orleans 2-Jul Aug-13 2-Jul Aug-14 7
9 Cancelled tonnage (thousand tonnes) Cancellation activity Cancellation represents the key driver of queues Cancellation activity materially drives queue development Queue growth at Detroit and Vlissingen continues to be driven by cancellation activity 62% of Vlissingen warrants, and 84% of Detroit warrants, now cancelled Once cancellation activity falls (or all warrants are cancelled), effect of LILO would be to cause queues to fall as well Cancellation analysis (percentages show cancelled warrants as proportion of total stock) 1,400 1,200 56% 62% 69% 84% 1, % % 59% 17% 7% 1% Impala Antwerp Pacorini Johor Pacorini Vlissingen Metro Detroit Pacorini New Orleans 28-Jun Aug-14 8
10 Waiting time (calendar days) Queue development Cancellation represents the key driver of queues Incumbent queues development driven almost exclusively by warrant cancellation, given flat load-in by operators Mar-11 Jul-11 Nov-11 Mar-12 Jul-12 Nov-12 Mar-13 Jul-13 Nov-13 Mar-14 Jul-14 Impala Antwerp Pacorini Johor Pacorini Vlissingen Metro Detroit Pacorini New Orleans Key: Consultation 000 announcement Decision announcement Judgment Aspirant queues now appear to have fallen away Data as of 31-Aug-14 9
11 Longest waiting time (calendar days) Queue lengths by metal Significant reduction in queues across most metals Primary Aluminium Copper, Aluminium Alloy April May June July August NASAAC, Zinc and Lead Molybdenum, Steel, Tin, Nickel and Cobalt Data as of 31-Aug-14 10
12 Special Committee powers to investigate and act Broadened scope to intervene in the case of artificial queues Special Committee Terms of reference 2.2 The Special Committee shall have oversight of, and responsibility for, the imposition of additional load-out requirements on a warehouse pursuant to clause of the Warehouse Agreement. Warehousing Agreement The Exchange shall have the power to compel Warehouses to provide any information in accordance with Clause 9.3.3, including, without limitation, details of all inducements paid to attract the load-in of metal, and details of the provenance of loaded-in metal, including information about metal which may have been held previously in that Warehouse, or in another facility operated by the same Warehouse or member of the Warehouse s group. On the basis of such information, the Directors may, at their discretion, impose additional load-out requirements on a Warehouse which the Directors consider to have intentionally created or caused, or attempted to create or cause, a queue by the use of inducements or any other method. 11

17 Composition of premiums Premium futures contracts will enable market participants to hedge the regional premium of readily available metal PREMIUMS Queue related Non-queue related LME committed to take action Queues will fall over time might go up first, but eventually will go down Queue-based premiums will fall accordingly Outside current scope of LME prices Driven by market supply / demand factors Location Shape, brand, quality FoT charge Premium futures contracts may additionally help to manage queue-based premiums while these continue to exist LME traded Premium contracts Region FoT charge Queue length 16
