* A holiday trading session includes extended trading hours on the calendar day
of the holiday and any extended trading hours for the holiday on the previous calendar
day. Holiday trading sessions are not separate Business Days and are part of the
next Business Day. Trading in VX futures is suspended between sessions of extended
trading hours on the calendar day of a holiday. Since these suspension periods are a regular
feature for certain holiday trading sessions in VX futures, they shall not be considered
the declaration of a trading halt by the Exchange. Trades in VX futures made during
a holiday trading session will be submitted for clearing for the next Business Day.
