Common use of Launch Dates for NYMEX Globex Contracts Clause in Contracts

Launch Dates for NYMEX Globex Contracts. Within 30 days after the Effective Date, CME and NYMEX shall mutually agree upon (i) target dates for the Launch Dates, (ii) the list of NYMEX Products that will be listed as NYMEX Globex Contracts on Launch Date 1 and Launch Date 2, in accordance with the requirements of Section 3.2 and considering the impact that the inclusion of additional products may have upon the target launch dates, if any, and (ii) develop the initial Project Plan or plans for the Launch Dates, as further described in Section 8.1.1. Launch Date 1 shall include only futures products and not futures options products; Launch Date 2 may include futures options products if NYMEX so desires. Nothing in this Section 4.1 is intended to limit NYMEX’s ability to request listing of additional NYMEX Globex Contracts between Launch Date 1 and Launch Date 2 pursuant to Section 3.2.1, except that NYMEX may not require the listing of futures options products sooner than may be agreed upon between the parties in the Project Plan or plans for the Launch Dates.
