Regulatory Circular RG03-03

Date: January 10, 2003

To: All Designated Primary Market-Makers

From: Department of Market Monitoring/Regulatory Services Division

Re: Limit Order Display Requirements

As you were previously advised in various written communications from the Exchange,Phase III of the progressive reduction of the limit order-handling standard (the requirementthat a DPM execute, display or book at least 95% of certain eligible limit orders immedi-ately but not later than 30-seconds under normal market conditions1), is scheduled to takeeffect January 20, 2003. Although CBOE members have shown steady improvement incomplying with the performance standards to date, it still appears that it would be difficultfor most DPMs to meet the requirement to book 95% in 30-seconds or less.

As a result, the Exchange is developing an enhancement to the PAR workstation that willresult in the automatic booking of eligible limit orders residing on PAR after a des-ignated amount of time not to exceed 30 seconds. This project will be completed byApril 2003. In conjunction with this effort, the Exchange also requested from the SEC anextension of time in moving to the 95% in 30-seconds or less standard. The SEC hasgranted this request. As such, the requirement to handle at least 95% of certaineligible limit orders within 60-seconds or less under normal market conditions willremain in effect until April 18, 2003. DPMs will continue to be subject to disciplinaryaction for failure to meet this standard.

1Eligible limit orders were defined by the BCC to include orders routed electronically through the CBOE’sOrder Routing System (“ORS”) that middle the disseminated quote at the time of entry in ORS that arerouted to Live Ammo or the DPM floor broker workstation (PAR terminal). Although all limit orders shouldbe executed or booked promptly, limit orders subject to the standard do not include orders a) in excess of100 contracts, b) that would lock/cross the NBBO if booked, c) received on PAR prior to the opening oftrading and for 5 minutes following the opening of trading (whether at the beginning of a trading day orafter a halt), d) entered during the last 5 minutes of trading or e) for which the DPM enters an order withthe same terms to another exchange for execution. Contingency, broker-dealer and non-electronic or-ders are also excluded, as well as orders entered during unusual market conditions.

Regulatory Circularscontinued

Regulatory Circular RG03-03 continued

The Exchange, in the near future, will begin providing each DPM with updates of their limitorder display performance as measured against the 95% in 30-seconds or less standard.These updates will be provided strictly on an informational basis in an effort to give youadvance notice of whether it appears the DPM will meet the reduced standard and toenable you to take the necessary steps to ensure that the DPM is in compliance with thereduced standard upon its effective date of April 21, 2003.

Should you have any questions concerning this memorandum or wish to discuss yourDPMs performance with respect to limit order display requirements, please contact KarenCharleston at 786-7724.

Regulatory Circular RG03-05

To: Members

From: Stock Selection Committee

Date: January 14, 2003

Re: Adding New Series of Option Contracts

Due to questions from members as to when CBOE may add additional series of optioncontracts on equity option classes, the Stock Selection Committee thought it would behelpful to describe some of the criteria under CBOE Rule 5.4 for adding new series ofoption contracts.

Maintenance Criteria. Pursuant to Rule 5.4, Interpretation .01, CBOE cannot add newseries of option contracts on an equity option class whenever any of the following occur1:

• Price. The market price per share of the underlying security closed below $3 inthe primary market in which it is traded on the previous trading day.

• Float. There are fewer than 6.3 million shares of the underlying security held bypersons other than those required to report their security holdings under Section16(a) of the Exchange Act.

• Holders. There are fewer than 1,600 holders of the underlying security.• Volume. The trading volume (in all markets in which the underlying security is

traded) was less than 1.8 million shares in the preceding 12 months.

$3 Price Requirement. Provided none of the limitations listed above occur, and no otherrestrictions under CBOE Rules prevent the listing of new series (see footnotes), CBOEcan add additional series on an intra-day or next-day basis, or following expiration, whenthe market price per share of the underlying security is at or above $3 as follows:

• For Intra-day Series Additions, to add new series the underlying security mustclose at or above $3 on the previous trading day in the primary market in whichthe security is traded, and the last reported trade in the primary market must be ator above $3 at the time CBOE determined to add these additional series.

• For Next-Day and Expiration Series Additions, to add new series the underly-ing security must close at or above $3 in the primary market in which the under-lying security is traded on the last trading day before the series are added.

1Two other limitations in Rule 5.4 not listed below for adding new option series are that the issuer hasfailed to make timely reports as required by the Exchange Act, and that the issue has been delisted or isno longer designated an NMS security.
