Based on the Subscriber's qualifications, Subscribers may be charged reduced Fees for Information. To qualify

Non-Professional shall mean and include either (i) an individual, natural person Subscriber(s) who, or (ii) certain

The Non-Professional Subscriber's Use of Information must:
- be solely for the Subscriber's personal or private use;
- be limited to managing the Subscriber's own assets, and not be used in connection with the
management of any assets of any third party(ies) in any capacity
The Non-Professional Subscriber's Access to Information must only
- be via a maximum of two trading terminals per Distributor, permissioned for Real-Time
Information and capable of routing orders to the CME Globex Platform (an "Order Routing

Any Subscriber who does not meet the qualifications of a Non-Professional Subscriber will be considered a
Professional Subscriber.
Notwithstanding anything herein, CME reserves the right in all cases to make a final determination as to whether a
Subscriber is a Non-Professional or a Professional. CME reserves the right to amend this policy or terminate
reduced fees for Non-Professionals at any time.
