ICE CDS RISK MANAGEMENT FRAMEWORK WATERFALL APPROACH FOR MANAGING SYSTEMIC RISK Layers of Protection Membership Criteria Ensure Clearing Member has operational capabilities, risk management experience and financial resources Mark-To-Market Margin Daily MTM based on EOD settlement prices Initial Margin Daily margin call based on dynamic stress-based regime Intra-day Risk Monitoring Special Margin Call Execution Additional margin can be called due to unusual market fluctuations Guaranty Fund Additional collateral to mutualize losses under extreme market scenarios Additional Assessment Rights Oblige Clearing Members to contribute additional default funding 7

RISK: INITIAL MARGIN REQUIREMENTS DYNAMIC STRESS-BASED REGIME Component Spread Response Recovery Rate Sensitivity Jump-To-Default Basis Risk Liquidity Interest Rate Sensitivity Concentration Initial Margin Risk Captured Instrument spread level variability and changes in credit spread term structure ( curve ) shape Fluctuations of Recovery Rate (RR) assumptions Unexpected credit event losses not accounted for in the market valuation of Single Name (SN) instruments Differences in trading behavior of indexderived and outright SN positions Transaction (bid-offer) costs associated with unwinding CDS instruments in the event of a Clearing Participant default Fluctuations in interest rates Costs associated with large position liquidation Approach Consider six scenarios Widening / contracting credit spread scenarios 3 curve shapes per credit spread scenario Consider min. and max. reference entity specific RR to determine additional losses Include Loss-Given-Default for sold protection Consider liability associated with 1 credit event using an assumed SN-specific minimum RR Account for liquidity differences (market views are priced into more liquid index instruments sooner than SNs), and expected cash flow differences Capture the proper liquidation cost for directional as well as well-hedged portfolios Estimate costs based on bid-offer width, derived from the end of day price discovery process Assess sensitivity of portfolio Net Asset Value to default-free discount interest rate changes Reflect market depth and liquidity Apply to positions that exceed pre-specified thresholds Increase requirements exponentially 8

RISK: PORTFOLIO MARGINING - QUANTIFYING THE BENEFITS INDEX DECOMPOSITION MARGIN METHODOLOGY Portfolio Margining Example ICE has formulated an index decomposition margin methodology which provides benefits to long/short index and single name positions Capital efficiencies are achieved by allowing a portfolio margining approach across European index and single name CDS while maintaining strong risk management protections 125 SN Positions (Bought Protection on 125 names of $1MM each 5Y tenor) Index Position IG Series 18 5 Y (Sold Protection) Margin Portfolio Size 1.89% $125MM (bought protection) 2.53% $125MM (Sold Protection) Total $2.37MM $3.16MM Single Name and Index positions separately Margined $5.53MM Margin s Single Name & Index Comingled and Cross- Margined $1.25MM 9

OMNIBUS CLIENT SEGREGATION Clearing Member is principal to the trade; Customer positions and assets are segregated from those of the firm (i.e. House); Customer positions are identified by customer legal entity via the Desk set up process; Margin is determined on a Customer-by-Customer basis and margin collected from the Clearing Member on a Gross basis; Margin is computed at End of Day and CM meets any increase day over day; where one customer requirement goes up this may be netted against another customer s requirements reducing; Customers share fellow customer risk : At Clearing House, collateral/assets not legally attributed to Customer in terms of asset or value; Margin provided in respect of one customer can offset that on another s positions and gains or losses; one customer margin decrease may offset another s increase; Margin of customer account is potentially subject to mutualisation; Initial Margin (IM) calls, Variation Margin (VM) calls/pays are netted to a single call or pay per currency - Net VM payable to the CM can be used to cover increased margin requirements; Clearing Member can maintain excess buffer at Clearing House to anticipate changes in margin etc., but this is not attributable to individual clients. 11

INDIVIDUALLY SEGREGATED MARGIN FLOW CO-MINGLED ACCOUNT ( ISOC ) ICE Clear Europe has developed an Individually Segregated Margin-flow Comingled Account model - known as ISOC. In this model, the Clearing Member continues to act as principal to the positions but the Clearing House keeps a separate record of positions and assets at individual customer level. The ISOC model introduces new workflows to identify each Client s positions and assets and effects a daily cover call for each Client. At EOD, any changes in initial margin or variation margin requirements for each Customer Account are then aggregated into a single margin call from the Clearing Member. The Clearing Member may then seek to re-allocate assets with its individual clients and must report on such allocations to ICE. Under the model, margin is attributed to each Client s account. Asset Management (Deposits/Withdrawals) is initiated at the Client Account level (i.e. aggregated across all ISOC accounts) and flows through the external settlement process tagged by Customer. ISOC accounts may also be used as private omnibus accounts for groups of Customers that are for example related companies of funds under common management. ISOC accounts utilised prior to ICEU s EMIR authorisation will not be individually segregated accounts. These will prior to EMIR authorisation form part of the customer omnibus account in the event of Clearing Member default. 12

LEGAL FRAMEWORK AND DOCUMENTATION Sponsored Principal Accounts: The SP and Sponsor are each joint and severally liable with one another in relation to contracts cleared at the Clearing House. Legal agreements governing cleared SP positions consist of: ICE Clear Europe Clearing Rules, Standard Terms Annex, Procedures, Sponsor/SP Clearing agreement and any other underlying legal agreement (e.g. ISDA/FOA Client Clearing Addendum, German Client Clearing Framework Agreement) SP/Sponsor Agreements with the Clearing House could be either of: Separate Bilateral Agreements The Sponsor executes a Sponsor Agreement ( https://www.theice.com/publicdocs/clear_europe/sponsor_agreement.pdf), then notifies new SPs as and when, `Each SP executes a separate agreement ( https://www.theice.com/publicdocs/clear_europe/sponsored_principal_clearing_agreement.pdf) OR, Tripartite Agreement The Sponsor and Sponsored Principal execute an agreement together (https://www.theice.com/publicdocs/clear_europe/tripartite_sponsored_principal_agreement.pdf) Omnibus and ISOC Accounts: The legal documentation set has been designed to allow maximum flexibility such that clearing members and their clients can establish arrangements using documentation similar to that used in either the OTC or futures markets today. The Clearing Member to Client relationship is typically be governed by a base document (e.g. an ISDA Master Agreement and ISDA/FOA Clearing Addendum). The Clearing House is agnostic to the type of document used specifies one requirement for these documents: that the Clearing Member and Client agree that the Standard Terms apply and prevail in a way that is legally enforceable. This may be achieved by both parties agreeing the Clearing House rules apply.

Nevertheless, the Clearing House has had sight of various industry standard forms of customer documentation. In this context, CMs and Customers should review the table below: ISDA/FOA Client Cleared OTC Derivatives Addendum (11 June 2013) FOA Clearing Module (11 October 2013) Association of German Banks Clearing-Framework Agreement (8 May 2013) ISDA/FBF Annex to the Client Cleared OTC Derivatives Addendum (1 August 2014) This form of documentation complies with the requirements of Rule 202 (b).
