Under certain circumstances the specifications of outstanding contracts (including the exercise price of an option) may be modified by the Exchange or Clearing House to reflect changes in the underlying interest. 8.2 Suspension or Restriction of Trading and Pricing Relationships (a) Market conditions (e.g. illiquidity) and / or the operation of the rules of certain markets (e.g. the suspension of trading in any contract or contract month because of price limits or ‘circuit breakers’) may increase the risk of loss by making it difficult or impossible to effect transactions or liquidate / offset positions. If you have sold options, this may increase the risk of loss. (b) Further, normal pricing relationships between the underlying interest and the futures, and the underlying interest and the option may not exist. This can occur when, for example, the futures contract underlying the option is subject to price limits while the option is not. The absence of an underlying reference price may make it difficult to judge ‘fair’ value.
