      <![CDATA[The New York Stock Exchange will implement changes to accept limit and stop orders priced less than $1 entered in sub-pennies for all securities listed on both the NYSE and NYSE Amex <strong><em>without rounding </em></strong>such prices to the nearest whole penny.  Orders priced equal to or greater than $1 entered in sub-pennies will continue to be rejected, as is done today.  Pursuant to Regulation NMS Rule 162, limit orders priced under $1 in increments smaller than .0001 will be rejected.  Please refer to the attached link for additional technical details. ]]>
      <![CDATA[The Exchange's migration plan to allow sub-penny priced orders for securities trading under $1 without rounding will be a phased approach on a stock-by-stock basis beginning later this year in a limited number of stocks.  The exact date of the initial migration will be announced in the near future and as stocks are targeted for migration, they will be added to a sub-penny priced stock list that will be made available via NYSE Trader.

      As previously announced in the September 8, 2009 NYSE Trader update, the NYSE Amex plans to trade NASDAQ listed equities and select ETFs on an Unlisted Trading Privilege (UTP) basis as an additional trading venue, supplementing NYSE Arca. In support of that effort, by mid November, 2009 the NYSE plans to support member firm testing in the User Acceptance Test (UAT) environment during normal business hours. 
      <![CDATA[Firms wishing to test in UAT should contact the NYSE service desk at 866.873.7422 or email firmtesting@nyx.com.  Additionally, the NYSE will provide for the following Saturday production testing opportunities (see the linked notice for details):  
<ul>
<li>November 21, 2009
<li>December 12, 2009
<li>January 9, 2010</ul>

Based upon results from these industry tests and member firm readiness, the NYSE will announce a live date for trading early in the first quarter of 2010. Please contact your Relationship Manager or one of the below contacts should you have any questions, comments or concerns: <br>

(“NYSE Regulation”) announced today that it determined that the common stock of CIT Group Inc. (the “Company”) – ticker symbol CIT – as well as the 3 related listed securities below, should be suspended prior to the market opening on Tuesday, November 3, 2009.

This decision was reached in view of the Company’s November 1, 2009 announcement that its Board of Directors has voted to proceed with voluntary filings for CIT Group Inc. and CIT Group Funding Company of Delaware LLC with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York, pursuant to the Company’s prepackaged plan of reorganization that received the requisite levels of support from the Company’s debtholders.  The Company proceeded with these voluntary filings on November 1, 2009.  Separately, conditions for consummating the Company’s alternative exchange offers were not met. Accordingly, under the proposed prepackaged plan of reorganization, all existing common and preferred stock will be cancelled upon emergence.  As a result, NYSE Regulation has determined that the Company is no longer suitable for listing.<br><br>The Company has a right to a review of this determination by a Committee of the Board of Directors of NYSE Regulation. Applications to the Securities and Exchange Commission to delist the issues are pending the completion of applicable procedures, including any appeal by the Company of the NYSE Regulation staff’s decision.  The NYSE noted that it may, at any time, suspend a security if it believes that continued dealings in the security on the NYSE are not advisable.<br><br>Company contact:

]]>
      Subsequently, the NYSE has successfully listed four character root symbols for trading on both the NYSE and NYSE Amex exchanges, and at some point in the later half of 4Q2009 may list a five-character root symbol.  

Firms should ensure that their systems are capable of handling all combinations of four- and five-character root symbols with various suffix combinations.  Firms wishing to test their systems with various symbol combinations in the UAT environment should contact the Member Firm Testing group by sending an email to firmtesting@nyx.com.

      NYSE Amex plans to trade NASDAQ listed equities and select ETFs on an Unlisted Trading Privilege (UTP) basis as an additional trading venue, supplementing NYSE Arca.  NYSE Amex UTP will be powered by the NYSE parity-based market model.  This initiative underscores NYSE Euronext&apos;s commitment to offer customers the broadest array of compelling choices for trading U.S. equities as well as other financial products.


      <![CDATA[Prior to its integration with the NYSE, the Amex traded a limited number of NASDAQ issues on a UTP basis, accepting order flow through their trading system and publishing quotes and trades to Tape C with a Market Center Participant ID of 'A'.   In the same way as the NYSE systems accept order flow for NYSE Amex stocks, the NYSE systems will accept orders for NASDAQ symbols, regardless of the destination market center identified on the order ('N' or 'A'), and will route the order to the appropriate NYSE Amex matching engine and DMM.  Quotes and trades will be disseminated to Tape C with a Market Center Participant ID of 'A' and order Acks, UROUTs and reports with be sent back to customers with a market center of 'A'.  See the information memo linked below for technical details.
<br><br>
In October of 2009 the NYSE plans to support member firm testing in the User Acceptance Test (UAT) environment during normal business hours.  Additionally, the NYSE will provide multiple Saturday production testing opportunities later in the 4th quarter.  Based upon these tests and member firm readiness, the NYSE will announce a live date for trading early in the first quarter of 2010.  A separate notice will be distributed in the near future providing further details on UAT availability as well as dates that will be available, the functionality that can be tested, and outputs that will be provided for the Saturday production tests.

      In response to member firm&apos;s requests, and as part of the NYSE’s deployment of the Super Display Book (SDBK), an expanded Account Field was implemented with plans to pass that tag back to firms on all CCG responses. As previously announced in the August 7, 2009 Trader Update, the NYSE will activate functionality to pass the Account Field back to firms on Monday, September 14, 2009.


      <![CDATA[The Account Field is an optional 32-byte tag that firms can choose to populate with their own order or customer identification information. Once the NYSE activates the aforementioned functionality, any information entered in the Account Field will be passed back to firms on all responses via CCG. (Note: the information in the Account Field will not be passed back on orders routed to the BBSS and e-Broker systems.) Firms wishing to test their systems can do so in the User Acceptance Test (UAT) environment between the hours of 9:00 AM and 10:00 PM (with product support available between 9:00 AM and 5:00 PM) by contacting our Service Desk at 1-866-873-7422 or by sending an email to firmtesting@nyx.com.
