    CME Group intends to implement a number of enhancements in its interest rate products designed to deliver significant value to its customers. Beginning March 3, CME Group plans to reduce the minimum tick size for three of its most actively traded interest rate contracts, the 30-Year U.S. Treasury Bond futures contract and both the 5-Year U.S. Treasury Note futures and options on futures. Pending CFTC approval, CME will implement the following modification to the minimum tick size:


    -- 30-Year U.S. Treasury Bond futures from 1/32nd to 1/2 of 1/32nd (from
    $31.25 to $15.625)
    -- 5-Year U.S. Treasury Note futures from 1/2 of 1/32nd to 1/4 of 1/32nd
    (from $15.625 to $7.8125)
    -- 5-Year U.S. Treasury Note options from 1/64th to 1/2 of 1/64th from
    ($15.625 to $7.8125)
