 All payments hereunder shall be made in pounds sterling; provided that the CBOT may
pay in U.S. dollars any Charges based on such costs incurred by LIFFE hereunder, which costs were denominated in U.S. dollars. 
  
 11.2    Fixed Charges. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, in the event LIFFE performs any Services (a)
specified to be charged on a fixed fee basis, and (b) occasioned by (i) the failure of the CBOT to fulfill, or delay by the CBOT in fulfilling, any of its obligations under this Agreement or (ii) the failure or malfunction of technology not owned,
controlled, or provided by or on behalf of LIFFE hereunder, the CBOT shall pay to LIFFE (x) fees for the time expended by LIFFE in connection with such Services, on a time and materials basis, calculated in accordance with the Charge Rates; and (y)
all associated Out of Pocket Expenses. 
  
 11.3    Taxes. The Charges shall be exclusive of all international, national or state taxes (including withholding taxes), levies, duties, or similar charges, however designated, that may be assessed by any
jurisdiction under current law or as a result of any change in the law following the date thereof (collectively, “Taxes”), and the CBOT shall pay or reimburse LIFFE for all such Taxes that may be levied or imposed in relation to
this Agreement or any of the rights and licenses granted hereunder, excluding (a) any VAT that is recovered by LIFFE and (b) taxes based on the net income of LIFFE. LIFFE will use good faith efforts to recover VAT applicable to any Charges.
Prior to receiving from the CBOT any payment which may be subject to United States withholding taxes, LIFFE shall deliver to the CBOT two original copies of (i) Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) Form “W-8BEN” (or any
successor forms), accurately completed and duly executed by LIFFE certifying, in Line 9a thereof (or the corresponding line of any successor forms), that the applicable treaty is the United States-United Kingdom Income Tax Convention, and further
certifying the matters set forth in Line 9b and 9c of Form “W-8BEN” (or the corresponding lines of any successor forms) or (ii) IRS Form “W-8ECI” (or any successor form); provided that, unless required by U.S. law, LIFFE
shall not be required to deliver to the CBOT any such Forms if LIFFE assigns, pursuant to Section 25, this Agreement and/or its rights and obligations under this Agreement to an Affiliate of LIFFE which is a United States corporation. LIFFE
hereby agrees, from time to time after the initial delivery by LIFFE of such forms whenever a lapse in time or change of circumstances renders such forms obsolete or inaccurate in any material respect, to deliver to the CBOT two new original copies
of IRS Form “W-8BEN” or IRS Form “W-8ECI” (or any successor forms), accurately completed and duly executed by LIFFE. Notwithstanding this Section 11.3, the relevant Charges shall be paid net of any U.S. federal income
withholding tax caused by the failure of LIFFE to provide the CBOT with such forms, unless a change in applicable law of the United States, enacted or promulgated after the date hereof, makes it impossible for LIFFE to continue to make the
certifications described above. 
  
 11.4    Invoices. LIFFE shall invoice the CBOT as set forth in Schedule M, in pounds sterling; provided, however, that LIFFE will invoice in U.S. dollars any Charges based on costs incurred by LIFFE
hereunder, which costs were denominated in U.S. dollars. For the avoidance of doubt, any amounts paid by LIFFE in pounds sterling will be invoiced to the CBOT in pounds sterling. Each invoice for Program Services Charges or other Services charged on
a time and materials basis hereunder will set forth the name of each of the LIFFE Project Personnel who performed such Program Services, the categories of work performed by such individual, the grade of each such individual, and the Charge Rate for
such individual. Payment of each invoice shall be made by the CBOT within thirty (30) days of the date of receipt of such invoice by the CBOT (the “Payment Date”), unless the CBOT makes a good faith objection to the terms of the
invoice, in which case (a) the CBOT shall pay the undisputed amount of the invoice, and (b) the Parties shall promptly undertake to resolve the disputed portion of the invoice.

 11.5    Suspension. If the CBOT fails to pay any
undisputed Charges due under this Agreement by the Payment Date, then, without prejudice to any other remedy available to LIFFE, LIFFE may, upon fourteen (14) days prior written notice to the CBOT’s Project Manager and placement of a telephone
call to the CBOT’s Relationship Manager, suspend the Services; provided that the CBOT has not made payment within such period of time. In the event of reinstatement of the Services, the CBOT shall be required to install any such Upgrades
and/or Replacements to the version(s) of the Licensed Technology or Equipment last utilized by the CBOT, as LIFFE may specify. 
  
 11.6    Late Payment. If the CBOT fails to pay any undisputed Charges due under this Agreement by the Payment Date, then
interest shall be charged thereon from the date of issuance of the applicable invoice until the date payment is made, at the rate of the lesser of one and one half percent (1.5%) per month, or the maximum amount allowed under applicable law.

A “RENEWAL TERM”); provided that the Parties have agreed to the New Terms and amended this Agreement accordingly by an instrument in writing signed by a duly authorized representative of each Party. If the New Terms have not
been agreed by a date one (1) year prior to the end of the Initial Term or the then current Renewal Term (as applicable), then CBOT may provide written notice to LIFFE that the CBOT does not intend to renew the Agreement, and the Agreement will
expire at the end of the Initial Term or the then current Renewal Term (as applicable). For the avoidance of doubt, the expiration of the Agreement at the end of the Initial Term or a Renewal Term shall not constitute a termination of the Agreement
pursuant to Section 13, and the CBOT shall not be liable for Termination Costs.

 19.2    General Limitation. EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN THIS AGREEMENT, NEITHER PARTY SHALL HAVE LIABILITY TO THE OTHER FOR
ANY LOSS, DAMAGE OR INJURY, DIRECT OR INDIRECT, WHETHER OR NOT CAUSED BY THE NEGLIGENCE OF SUCH PARTY, ITS AFFILIATES, OR THE OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS OR REPRESENTATIVES OF SUCH PARTY OR OF ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES, EXCEPT THAT EACH PARTY

question between the Parties arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the breach hereof (excluding any third party claims against LIFFE or the CBOT subject to indemnification pursuant to Section 18, but including any
disagreements as to indemnification rights hereunder). Any Dispute between the Parties that (a) relates to Program Services or (b) relates to Managed Services and has not been resolved by the Governance Committee in accordance with Schedule

 Dispute. If the Dispute is not resolved by such second representatives within five (5)
Business Days, the Dispute will be referred to the Parties’ Chief Executive Officers who must discuss and, if appropriate, meet within five (5) Business Days to attempt to resolve the Dispute. If any representative of either Party referred to
in this Section 20.1 is not available for any reason, the affected Party shall be entitled to appoint an appropriate substitute. 
  
 20.2    Mediation. If the Parties cannot resolve any Dispute in accordance with Section 20.1 within thirty (30) Business
Days, they may refer the Dispute to mediation, to be conducted by a single mediator in (i) Chicago, Illinois, if LIFFE has initiated the Dispute, or (ii) London, England, if the CBOT has initiated the Dispute. The Parties shall use good faith
efforts to agree upon a mediator. If the Parties are unable to agree upon a mediator within thirty (30) Business Days, the Parties may seek judicial resolution and remedy of the Dispute without first proceeding with mediation. The Parties shall use
good faith efforts to hold the mediation within thirty (30) Business Days following the selection of a mediator. Unless otherwise agreed by the Parties, no decision resulting from the mediation proceedings will be binding upon the Parties. Unless
expressly provided herein, each Party will bear its own costs (including attorneys fees) relating to the mediation, but the Parties will share equally the fees and expenses charged by the mediator. 
  
 20.3    Arbitration. If a Dispute is not resolved
in accordance with Section 20.2, then either Party may provide written notice to the other Party of an intention to refer the Dispute to arbitration. Any such arbitration shall be: (a) binding; (b) administered by the International Centre for
Dispute Resolution (“ICDR”) of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”); (c) conducted in accordance with the International Arbitration Rules of the AAA (the “AAA Rules”), as such AAA Rules may
be amended from time to time, except to the extent this Section 20.3 provides otherwise; (d) held in Chicago, Illinois, if the Dispute is initiated by LIFFE and in London, England if the Dispute is initiated by the CBOT; and (e) conducted
using the English language. Upon filing a claim, the filing Party will simultaneously provide written notice of such claim to the other Party and to the relevant administrator at the ICDR. 
  

	 	20.3.1	Selection of Arbitrators. Within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of the ICDR initiation letter, each Party shall select one neutral individual to act as arbitrator. In
addition, the Parties shall submit a written request to AAA to use its normal procedures pursuant to the AAA Rules to appoint the third arbitrator within five (5) Business Days of AAA’s receipt of such request. The arbitrator appointed by AAA
shall serve as the chairperson of the arbitration panel. The Parties agree that the selection of arbitrators must be completed within twenty-five (25) Business Days of receipt by both Parties of the ICDR initiation letter. 


 

	 	20.3.2	Cooperation. The Parties shall cooperate with each other in causing the arbitration to be held in as efficient and expeditious a manner as practicable, and in this respect to
furnish such documents and make available such personnel as the arbitrators may request. 

  

	 	20.3.3	Reduction of Losses. The Parties have selected arbitration to expedite the resolution of Disputes and to reduce the costs and burdens associated with litigation. The Parties
agree that the arbitrators should take these concerns into account when determining whether to authorize discovery and, if discovery is authorized, the scope of permissible discovery and other hearing and pre-hearing procedures. The arbitrators
shall render an award, including a written decision, within ninety (90) calendar days after the arbitration notice is provided, unless

	 	    	the Parties otherwise agree or the arbitrators make a finding that a Party has carried the burden of showing good cause for a longer time period. 

  

	 	20.3.4	Binding Decision. The decision or award of the arbitrators will be final and binding, and may be used as a basis for judgment thereon in any jurisdiction. The award shall be
in writing, shall be signed by a majority of the arbitrators, and shall include a written decision setting out the reasons for the disposition of any claim. 

  

	 	20.3.5	Punitive Damages. Without limiting any other remedies that may be available under applicable law, the arbitrators shall have no authority to award punitive damages.


  

	 	20.3.6	Confidentiality. All proceedings and decisions of the arbitrators shall be maintained in confidence to the extent legally permissible, and shall not be made public by any
Party or any arbitrator without the prior written consent of the Parties, except as may be required by applicable laws. 

  

	 	20.3.7	Losses. Each Party shall bear its own costs and attorneys fees, and the Parties shall equally bear the fees, costs, and expenses of the arbitrators and the arbitration
proceedings charged by the arbitrators (“Arbitration Fees”); provided, however, that (a) the filing Party shall pay any filing fees charged by the AAA; and (b) the arbitrators may exercise discretion to award costs, but not
attorneys fees or Arbitration Fees, to the prevailing Party. 

  

	 	20.3.8	Obligations. The commencement and pendency of an arbitration under this Section 20.3 shall not relieve either of the Parties of their respective obligations under this
Agreement. 

  

	 	20.3.9	Limitations. A demand for arbitration shall not be made after the date when institution of legal or equitable proceedings based upon such dispute would be barred by the
applicable statute of limitations or laches under the laws of the State of Illinois, and the Parties expressly waive any causes of action relating to any Dispute not brought within the period set forth therein.  

  
 20.4    Limitations. Notwithstanding Sections
20.2 and 20.3, nothing herein restricts the rights of either Party to seek judicial resolution and remedy of (i) any Disputes, following compliance with Sections 20.2 and 20.3, or (ii) any claims, disputes, controversies, or
other matters in question between the Parties arising out of either Party’s breach of its obligations pursuant to Section 16 or Section 17. 
  

	21.	Entire Agreement 

  
 This Agreement, together with the Software License Agreement and the Development Services Agreement entered into by the Parties, constitutes the entire

 EXECUTION 
  
 SCHEDULE D 
  
 CHANGE CONTROL PROCEDURES 
  

	1.	OVERVIEW 

  
 The change control procedures set forth herein and diagrammed in chart form in Appendix 1 to this Schedule D, shall be used whenever the CBOT or LIFFE has a requirement to change any component of the Services.

  
 The individual designated by LIFFE to handle the day-to-day management of
Change Requests and/or Summary Statements of Work on behalf of LIFFE (“LIFFE’s Project Manager”) will be the principal contact at LIFFE regarding the change control procedures and will serve as the administrator of the Change Control
Procedures. The representative of the Party requesting the change will be referred to herein as the “Change Requester.” 
  

	2.	PROCEDURES 

  

	2.1	SUBMIT CHANGE REQUEST 

  

	 	(a)	To initiate the change control process, the Change Requester must set forth on a Change Request Form, a copy of which is attached as Appendix 2 to this Schedule D: (i) the name of
the Party requesting the change, (ii) the Change Requester’s name, (iii) the date of the request, (iv) a description of the desired change, (v) the designated priority of such change (i.e., high, normal or low) and (vi) the reason(s) for
requesting the change. 

  

	 	(b)	The Change Requester must then send the Change Request Form to LIFFE’s Project Manager. 

  

	 	(c)	LIFFE’s Project Manager will, within twenty-four (24) hours of receipt of the Change Request Form, acknowledge such receipt by (i) issuing a number to correspond with the
Change Request Form; (ii) noting on the Change Request Form the date of receipt of the Change Request Form, the name of LIFFE’s Project Manager, the Change Request Form number issued, and the date of issuance of such number; and (iii) signing
and dating the appropriate portion of the Form. LIFFE’s Project Manager will then (x) send to the Change Requester and, if the Party requesting the change is LIFFE, to the CBOT’s Project Manager, a copy of the acknowledged Change Request
Form and (y) record on the Change Request Form the date such acknowledged Change Request Form was sent. 

  

	2.2	PRELIMINARY REVIEW OF CHANGE REQUEST 

  
 Following acknowledgment of receipt of the Change Request Form, LIFFE’s Project Manager will undertake a preliminary review of the Change Request
Form to ensure that the Change Requester has provided the requisite details. If LIFFE’s Project Manager, in his or her reasonable judgment, determines that the information provided is insufficient, LIFFE’s Project Manager will contact the
Change Requester to request additional information. This cycle will continue until (i) the requested information is provided or (ii) the Parties agree to file the Change Request Form and close the matter accordingly. LIFFE’s 
  
 CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION REDACTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES

 AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION. OMITTED PORTIONS INDICATED BY [**]. 
  

 D-1 








 Confidential Treatment Requested by CBOT Holdings, Inc. 
  
 Project Manager will not proceed with further assessment of the change request until and
unless such additional information is obtained. If LIFFE’s Project Manager disagrees with the priority of the requested change designated on the Change Request Form, LIFFE’s Project Manager and CBOT’s Project Manager shall review and
discuss the nature of the requested change and agree upon the priority for such change. 
  

	2.3	DETERMINATION OF WHETHER AN INITIAL ASSESSMENT IS TO BE CONDUCTED 

  

	 	(a)	Once LIFFE’s Project Manager determines a Change Request Form provides sufficient information and the portions of the Change Request Form noted above have been completed,
LIFFE’s Project Manager will, within (i) ten (10) Business Days, for a low priority change, (ii) four (4) Business Days, for a normal priority change, or (iii) two (2) Business Days, for a high priority change, thereafter contact the Change
Requester and/or, if the Party requesting the change is LIFFE, the CBOT’s Project Manager, to discuss (i) whether an initial assessment of the change request is to be undertaken and (ii) the date by which any initial assessment should be
completed. 

  

	 	(b)	If LIFFE’s Project Manager and the Change Requester and/or, if the Party requesting the change is LIFFE, the CBOT’s Project Manager, agree that no initial assessment of
the change request is to be undertaken, LIFFE’s Project Manager will file the Change Request Form and close the matter accordingly. 

  

	 	(c)	In the circumstance where more than one initial assessment has been undertaken for a particular change request, the Parties may agree to halt the process of assessing the change
request, in which case LIFFE’s Project Manager will file the Change Request Form and close the matter accordingly. 

  

	 	(d)	[**] 

  

	 	(e)	[**] 

  

	2.4	INITIAL ASSESSMENT 

  

	 	(a)	If LIFFE’s Project Manager and the Change Requester and/or, if the Party requesting the change is LIFFE, the CBOT’s Project Manager, agree that an initial assessment is to
be undertaken, LIFFE’s Project Manager will, unless otherwise agreed, commence such initial assessment within (i) ten (10) Business Days, for a low priority change, (ii) four (4) Business Days, for a normal priority change, or (iii) two (2)
Business Days, for a high priority change, thereafter and shall use reasonable efforts to complete the initial assessment by the agreed upon completion date. 

  

	 	(b)	As applicable to the particular change request, [**]: 

  
 [**] 
  

	 	(c)	The Party requesting the change shall use reasonable efforts to ensure that the Change Requester and other appropriate personnel are available to provide to LIFFE’s Project
Manager information or other input or assistance relating to the initial assessment.

 Confidential Treatment Requested by CBOT Holdings, Inc. 
  

	 	(a)	Once an initial assessment has been completed, LIFFE’s Project Manager will attach to the relevant Change Request Form a copy of any written results of the initial assessment
and provide to the Change Requester and, if the Party requesting the change is LIFFE, the CBOT’s Project Manager a copy of such results. LIFFE’s Project Manager and the Change Requester and/or, if the Party requesting the change is LIFFE,
the CBOT’s Project Manager, will then discuss the results of the assessment and determine (i) whether to accept or reject the initial assessment and (ii) if the initial assessment is rejected, whether to file the Change Request Form and close
the matter or to continue performing the initial assessment. 

  

	 	(b)	If the initial assessment is rejected and no further work on the initial assessment is to be undertaken, LIFFE’s Project Manager will file the Change Request Form and close the
matter accordingly. 

  

	 	(c)	If the initial assessment is rejected and it is agreed that additional work on the initial assessment is to be conducted, LIFFE’s Project Manager and Change Requester and/or,
if the Party requesting the change is LIFFE, the CBOT’s Project Manager, will agree upon a revised date of completion of the initial assessment and LIFFE’s Project Manager will carry out such further work and repeat the applicable
procedures set out in Paragraphs 2.4(b) and 2.5(a). This cycle will continue until LIFFE’s Project Manager and the Change Requester and/or, if the Party requesting the change is LIFFE, the CBOT’s Project Manager, either (i) agree to the
initial assessment and senior representatives of each Party have executed the appropriate section of the Change Request Form, or (ii) agree to file the Change Request Form and close the matter accordingly. 

  

	2.6	DETAILED PLAN 

  

	 	(a)	If LIFFE’s Project Manager and the Change Requester and/or, if the Party requesting the change is LIFFE, the CBOT’s Project Manager, agree to the initial assessment, then
senior representatives of each Party will indicate such acceptance on the Change Request Form by signing the appropriate section of the Change Request Form. 

  

	 	(b)	LIFFE’s Project Manager will then coordinate the production of a “detailed plan” for the requested change and shall use reasonable efforts to complete the
“detailed plan” by the agreed upon completion date. Each such “detailed plan” will include (i) an estimated schedule for implementation of the change requested, and (ii) the Charges which would be associated with implementation
of the requested change. 

  

	 	(c)	The Parties shall use reasonable efforts to ensure that appropriate personnel are available to provide to LIFFE’s Project Manager information or other input or assistance
relating to creation of the detailed plan. 

  

	2.7	ACCEPTANCE OF DETAILED PLAN 

  

	 	(a)	Once the detailed plan has been completed, LIFFE’s Project Manager will attach to the relevant Change Request Form a copy of the detailed plan and provide to the Change
Requester and, if the Party requesting the change is LIFFE, the CBOT’s Project Manager a copy of such detailed plan. Thereafter, LIFFE’s Project Manager and the Change Requester and/or, if the Party requesting the change is LIFFE, the
CBOT’s Project

 Manager, will review the completed detailed plan and determine (i) whether
to accept or reject the detailed plan and (ii) if the detailed plan is rejected, whether to file the Change Request Form and close the matter or to continue working on the detailed plan. 
  

	 	(b)	If the detailed plan is rejected and no further work on the detailed plan is to be undertaken, LIFFE’s Project Manager will file the Change Request Form and close the matter
accordingly. 

  

	 	(c)	If the detailed plan is rejected and it is agreed that additional work on the detailed plan is to be conducted, LIFFE’s Project Manager will carry out such further work and
repeat the applicable procedures set forth in Paragraphs 2.6(b) and 2.7(a). This cycle will continue until LIFFE’s Project Manager and the Change Requester and/or, if the Party requesting the change is LIFFE, the CBOT’s Project Manager,
accept the detailed plan or agree to file the Change Request Form and close the matter accordingly. 

  

	2.8	IMPLEMENT SOLUTION 

  

	 	(a)	If LIFFE’s Project Manager and Change Requester and/or, if the Party requesting the change is LIFFE, the CBOT’s Project Manager, agree to accept the detailed plan, then
senior representatives of each Party (i) will indicate acceptance of the change requested and the detailed plan by signing the appropriate section of the Change Request Form and (ii) LIFFE’s Project Manager will coordinate the implementation of
the change requested as per the detailed plan. 

  

	 	(b)	The Parties shall use reasonable efforts to ensure that appropriate personnel are available to provide assistance with implementing the change requested as per the detailed plan.


  

	 	(c)	LIFFE’s Project Manager will periodically provide to the Parties a report of the current status of the implementation of the change requested. 

  

	2.9	COMPLETE CHANGE REQUEST 

  

	 	(a)	Once implementation has been completed, senior representatives of the Parties will each so indicate by signing the appropriate section of the Change Request Form.


  

	 	(b)	LIFFE’s Project Manager will thereafter (i) arrange for an invoice to be sent to the CBOT for any Charges associated with the build, test, and/or implementation as appropriate
of the requested change and (ii) file the completed, and fully executed, Change Request Form.

 Harassment Policy 
  
 Sexual harassment is an infringement of an employee’s, applicant’s or consultant’s right to work in an environment free from unlawful sexual pressure. The
CBOT® is strongly committed to a workplace free of
sexual harassment. In keeping with this policy, the CBOT will not tolerate sexual harassment of employees, applicants, or consultants by other employees or non-employees in the workplace. 
  
 Sexual harassment consists of unlawful verbal or physical conduct directed at a person when that conduct is based on that person’s sex
and has a substantial adverse effect on him or her in the workplace. Such conduct may include, but is not limited to, the following: 
  

	1.	requests for sexual favors that may or may not be accompanied by threats or promises of preferential treatment with respect to an individual’s employment status;


  

	2.	verbal, written or graphic communications of a sexual nature, including lewd or sexually suggestive comments, off-color jokes of a sexual nature or displays of sexually explicit
pictures, photos, posters, cartoons, books, magazines or other items; or 

  

	3.	patting, pinching, hitting or any other unnecessary contact with another person’s body or threats to take such action. 

  
 Any employee, applicant or consultant who believes that he or she has been sexually harassed
in the workplace should report the harassment as soon as possible after it occurs to their supervisor. Any complaint regarding harassment by a CBOT employee should be presented to the complaining individual’s supervisor or the CBOT Human
Resources Department. Any supervisor who receives such a complaint must notify the Human Resources Department of the complaint as soon as possible. Complaints pertaining to harassment by members or member firm employees should be directed to the
head of Investigations in the Office of Investigations and Audits. Complaints pertaining to harassment by other non-employees should be directed to the Human Resources Department. The CBOT will thoroughly investigate all complaints and will keep
