Latest adjustment Paris, 18 August 2011 The AMF adjusts its position regarding the rolling forward of net short positions taken before the publication of its Decision of 11 August 2011 Given the existing practical difficulties and time constraints, the AMF has adjusted the position it had established before todayâs press release with regard to the implementation of the ban on the taking of net short positions in relation to pre-existing positions built through expiring derivatives. As a result thereof, the AMF admits that investors holding a net short position in relation to one of the securities concerned through expiring derivatives are allowed to roll forward their position, even if such a rolling results in the creation of a net short position with a further expiry date, provided that the net short position so created does not exceed the one held previously. Point 3 of the Frequently Asked Questions as published on the AMF website was adjusted accordingly. http://www.amf-france.org/documents/general/10117_1.pdf FAQ http://www.amf-france.org/documents/general/10111_1.pdf
