Futures Cotract Ticker Symbol or Code TE28 NV15 TE28 DC15 TE28 EN16 TE28 NV17 Uderlyig Asset Code Maturity Moth Maturity Year NV = November DC = December EN = Jauary NV = November 07 = 2015 07 = 2015 08 = 2016 09 = 2017 2. Quotatio Uit Tradig of 28-Day Futures Cotracts i MexDer will use as quotatio uit the Future Rate of the aualized yield, expressed i percetage poits, with two decimal places. 3. Miimum Future Rate Fluctuatio (Tick) Submittal of quotes for 28-Day Futures Cotracts executio will have as the miimum Future Rate fluctuatio, a value of oe basis poit (0.01) of the aualized percetile rate of yield metioed i poit (II.1) above. 4.

P 2 y P 1 are the prices correspodig to rates with a iterval of oe basis poit. Prices are calculated by meas of the followig formula: P 1 VN r FT Where, VN = Face Value of the 28-Day Futures Cotract MX$100,000.00. r = aual rate of yield egotiated i MexDer, i percetile otatio with 2 decimal places. FT = Time Factor obtaied with 28/36000, to express the rate i percetile terms, trucated to eight decimal places = 0.00077777. The result of r x FT is trucated to eight decimal places. P = Price of the 28-Day Future Cotract, rouded to 2 decimal places. 5.

Computatio of the Daily Settlemet Rate At the ed of a tradig sessio, MexDer will calculate Daily Settlemet Rates for each Series i accordace with the followig order of priority ad methodology: a) The Daily Settlemet Rate, the first istace will be the weighed average of the rates agreed upo i Futures Cotracts trades executed i the last five miutes of the tradig sessio by Series ad adjusted to the earest tick, i accordace with the followig formula: Where: PL t i 1 i 1 PiVi Vi PL t = Settlemet Rate for 28-day Futures Cotracts o day t, rouded to the earest tick. = umber of trades executed i the last five miutes of auctioig. Pi = Rate egotiated for the i th trade. Vi = Volume traded i the i th trade. b) If o trades were executed durig the period established i poit (3.a) above, the Daily Settlemet Rate for each period will be the volume weighted average of the Firm Bids or Offers at the ed of the tradig sessio, applyig the followig formula: Where: PL t PcVv Vc PvVc Vv PL t = Settlemet Rate for 28-day Futures Cotracts o day t, rouded to the earest tick. P C = Rate of the lowest firm bid quote(s) at closig. P V = Rate of the highest firm offer quote(s) at closig. V C = Volume of the lowest firm bid quote(s) at closig. V V = Volume of the highest firm offer quote(s) at closig. c) If, at the close of the sessio, there is ot at least oe bid quote ad oe offer quote for a Futures Cotract with the same Maturity Date, the Daily Settlemet Rate will be the Future Rate agreed upo i the last trade executed durig the auctio sessio. d) If, durig the auctio sessio, o trades were executed for a give Futures Cotract Maturity Date, ad there is ope iterest for this particular Series or Egrapado (Stapled trade), the Daily Settlemet Rate will be that resultig from the auctio summoed by MexDer i the terms of its Iteral Regulatios. e) If, i the auctio metioed i poit (3.d) above, the lowest bid quote is higher tha the highest offer quote, the Daily Settlemet Rate will be the volume weighted average of the Firm Bids or Offers at the ed of the tradig sessio, applyig the formula show i poit (3.b) above. 4
If o firm bid ad offer quotes were received for the auctio metioed i poit (3.d) above, the Daily Settlemet Rate will be the rate derived from the methodology published by MexDer i its Bulleti. MexDer will make use of the previous poits (3.a), (3.b), (3.c) ad (3.d) takig ito cosideratio oly stapled trasactios for those Series i which trasactios are made frequetly through that form to arrage operatios. MexDer shall otify at least five days before the metioed procedure take effect, the Series from which the Daily Settlemet Rate will be set takig ito cosideratio stapled trasactios oly ad the methodology to be used to determie the grade of the curve resultig from the fulfillmet of poits (3.a), (3.b), (3.c) ad (3.d).

Settlemet Rate at Maturity The Settlemet Rate at Maturity for the 28-Day Futures Cotract will be calculated i the followig order ad methodology: a) The Settlemet Rate at Maturity will be equal to the 28-Day Iterbak Equilibrium Iterest Rate issued by Baco de México as a result of the auctio held o the Cotract s last tradig day. b) If Baxico fails to publish the 28-Day Iterbak Equilibrium Iterest Rate for the Maturity Date, MexDer will calculate the Settlemet Rate at Maturity i accordace with the methodology used to calculate the Daily Settlemet Rate established i poits (3.a), (3.b), (3.c) ad (3.d), followig the aforemetioed order of priority.
