Re: Rule Certification. Notification of an Approved Amendment to Supplements No.
5, “Approved Brands Acceptable on the London Platinum and Palladium
Market” of both the Platinum and Palladium Futures Contracts.

NYMEX Submission 06-110
Dear CFTC Commissioners:

The New York Mercantile Exchange, Inc. ("NYMEX" or the "Exchange") is notifying the
Commodity Futures Trading Commission (“CFTC” or “Commission”) of an approved amendment to
Supplements No. 5, “Approved Brands Acceptable on the London Platinum and Palladium Market”
of both the Platinum and Palladium Futures Contracts to be implemented effective Monday, October
9, 2006 to include new brand markings for a previously approved brand. Tanaka Kikinzoku Kogyo
K.K. produces brands for delivery on the NYMEX Platinum and Palladium contracts. The brand
markings for new production have been changed from “Tanaka Tokyo” to “Tanaka Tokyo Melters”
(copy of drawings which illustrate the change are attached). The company has confirmed that the
process technology and analytic procedures for quality control of the platinum and palladium ingots
remain unchanged. Furthermore, they forward typical analytic results to demonstrate that their
ingots continue to meet contract quality specifications.

The Board of Directors, at its October 4, 2006 meeting unanimously voted to approve amending
Supplements No. 5 to both Chapter 90 Platinum Futures Contract and to Chapter 100 Palladium
Futures Contract to include these new brand markings. These revised Supplements are attached.

These brands, with both the new and old markings are approved for good delivery on both the
London Platinum and Palladium Market (“LPPM”) and the TOCOM. In correspondence dated June
27, 2006, the London Platinum and Palladium Market (“LPPM”) informed the Exchange that the
platinum and palladium produced by Tanaka Kikinzoku Kogyo K.K. with the new brand markings
have been accepted as good delivery in accordance with the rules of the LPPM. Please refer to
Exchange Submission No. 00-140 dated November 3, 2000 and approved by the Commission on
November 21, 2000 for background information.
