3 1. Introduction 1.1. Background The ASX Clear (Futures) clearing system (SECUR) was deployed at SFE in 2001 and integrated into ASX as part of the 2006 merger. Pursuant to ASX 24 Notice 123/13, ASX will be upgrading the clearing system from SECUR to Genium Clearing on May 19th, The upgrade is mandatory for all market participants on ASX24, and is being driven by both regulatory and technological requirements. In order to comply with the RBA s Financial Stability Standards (29 th March 2013), and the requirement for the central counterparty to offer segregated client accounts and portability arrangements (Standard 13), ASX Clear (Futures) has designed and developed the Futures Client Clearing (FCC) service. Central to the FCC service has been the introduction of Individual Client Accounts (ICAs) at exchange level, and it is this new ICA account structure which has highlighted limitations in the incumbent clearing system SECUR. The upgrade to Genium Clearing will overcome these limitations. In addition to the flexible account structures that support the Futures Client Clearing service, Genium Clearing also provides a world class platform with scalable transactional capacity, broader configuration capabilities to facilitate increased ASX 24 product listing opportunities and the ability for Customers to reinstate position wholly within the system. The upgrade contains key changes to the API in addition to a replacement of the Back Office PC (BOPC) with the new Clearing Workstation (CW) with minimal functional changes Genium Clearing Upgrade Timeline February 2014 Following is a summarised timeline for Genium Clearing from February 2014 through until Go-Live on Monday May 19 th, Copyright 2013 ASX Limited ABN All rights reserved

4 2. IWT Overview Objective The objective of the Genium Clearing IWT is for Customers to demonstrate and attest to performing a series of functions within Genium Clearing that confirms their readiness for the system upgrade. Summary IWT is separated into 2 phases; however it is mandatory for each Customer to participate in IWT Phase I. IWT Phase II will be used for those Customers who fail IWT Phase I as a result of technical or operational issues. IWT Phase I is broken down into three, 1 week periods or windows. Each Customer will be allocated a 1 week window to complete their testing and attestation. During each 1 week window, 7 Test Sets will be facilitated by ASX which are detailed within this document. Attestations need to be completed and returned to ASX within 2 business days of the completion of the allocated IWT window. Customers who successfully complete their testing and have submitted their attestation to ASX can conclude their involvement in IWT. Customers who fail IWT Phase I will be allocated either a subsequent testing window during Phase I or a window during Phase II. In the event that all Customers successfully complete testing during IWT Phase I, IWT Phase II will not be run. Supported testing during standard support hours (08:00 18:00) will continue to be provided until go-live. Requirements It is a requirement that all Customers participate in IWT Phase I (Feb 17 th Mar 7 th ). Customers who fail IWT Phase I will be provided with a subsequent 1 week window either during the remainder of IWT Phase I or in IWT Phase II (Mar 31 st Apr 17 th ). During this 3 week period, each Customer will be allocated a 1 week test window. Completed attestations (or advice of failure) must be provided to ASX within 2 business days of the end of the Customers allocated testing window. Customers can choose to continue additional testing activities throughout both IWT Phases and up to go-live. Customer Prerequisites for Starting IWT The Genium Clearing IWT will be conducted on the ASX 24 External Test Environment (ASX 24 ETE). In order to commence IWT Phase I, Customers must ensure they are connected to this environment no later than Feb 14 th. Customers need to ensure their own internal systems are ready to commence industry-wide testing including the receipt of software releases from their vendors or internal development teams. Customers will receive confirmation of their 1 week test window during IWT Phase I from ASX and will need to complete appropriate internal scheduling activities. ASX requires Customers to complete and submit a pre-attestation for IWT to confirm what functional/operational areas they will be covering during IWT that meet the overall readiness requirements to continue their Clearing Operations post go-live.
