8. Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) In December 2008, an unrealized loss of $81.7 million, net of tax, resulting from changes in foreign currency exchange rates, was recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) upon recognizing impairment on the company's investment in BM&FBOVESPA. Prior to February 2011, this investment was recorded at cost due to restrictions on the sale of the stock. The company began marking-to-market its investment in BM&FBOVESPA in February 2011 because these restrictions will lapse in February 2012, with changes in fair value recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). During the first nine months of 2011, the company recognized an unrealized gain on the investment in BM&FBOVESPA of $117.5 million, net of tax, and reversed the unrealized loss of $81.7 million, net of tax, attributable to foreign currency translation adjustments that were initially recorded in December 2008.

7. Stock-Based Payments Total expense for stock-based payments, including shares issued to the board of directors, was $39.0 million and $29.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The total income tax benefit recognized in the consolidated statements of income for stock-based payment arrangements was $15.3 million and $11.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. In the first nine months of 2011, the company granted employees stock options totaling 270,188 shares under the CME Group Omnibus Stock Plan. The options have a ten-year term with exercise prices ranging from $271 to $286 per share, the closing market price on the dates of grant. The fair value of these options totaled $25.1 million, measured at the grant dates using the Black-Scholes valuation model, which is recognized as compensation expense on an accelerated basis over the vesting period of four years. The Black-Scholes fair values of the option grants were calculated using the following assumptions: dividend yields ranging from 2.0% to 2.1%; expected volatility ranging from 41% to 42%; risk-free interest rates ranging from 1.3% to 2.4% and an expected life ranging from 5.6 to 6.2 years. The grant date weighted average fair value of options granted during the first nine months of 2011 was $93 per share. In the first nine months of 2011, the company granted 133,662 shares of restricted Class A common stock and 472 restricted stock units which generally have a vesting period of two to four years. The fair value of these grants was $36.6 million, which is recognized as compensation expense on an accelerated basis over the vesting period. In the first nine months of 2011, the company granted 5,542 performance shares. The vesting of these shares is contingent on meeting stated goals over a performance period. The expense for these shares is recognized on an accelerated basis over a performance period of three to four years.

10. Earnings Per Share Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income attributable to CME Group by the weighted average number of shares of all classes of common stock outstanding for each reporting period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the increase in shares using the treasury stock method to reflect the impact of an equivalent number of shares of common stock if stock options were exercised and restricted stock awards were converted into common stock. Outstanding stock options of approximately 1,084,000 and 941,000 were anti-dilutive for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2011, respectively. Outstanding stock options and restricted stock awards of approximately 984,000 and 865,000 were anti-dilutive for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2010, respectively. There were no anti-dilutive restricted stock awards for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2011. <div>   <table style="border-collapse: collapse;" border="0" cellspacing="0"

<div> 9. Fair Value Measurements The company uses a three-level classification hierarchy of fair value measurements for disclosure purposes.   <table style="border-collapse: collapse;" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="100%"> <tr><td width="5%"> </td> <td valign="top" width="2%" align="left"></td> <td valign="top" width="1%"> </td> <td valign="top" align="left"> Level 1 inputs, which are considered the most reliable evidence of fair value, consist of quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. </td></tr></table>   <table style="border-collapse: collapse;" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="100%"> <tr><td width="5%"> </td> <td valign="top" width="2%" align="left"></td> <td valign="top" width="1%"> </td> <td valign="top" align="left"> Level 2 inputs consist of observable market data, other than level 1 inputs, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs other than quoted prices that are directly observable. </td></tr></table>   <table style="border-collapse: collapse;" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="100%"> <tr><td width="5%"> </td> <td valign="top" width="2%" align="left"></td> <td valign="top" width="1%"> </td> <td valign="top" align="left"> Level 3 inputs consist of unobservable inputs which are derived and cannot be corroborated by market data or other entity-specific inputs. </td></tr></table> In general, the company uses quoted prices in active markets for identical assets to determine the fair value of marketable securities and equity investments. Level 1 assets generally include U.S. Treasury securities, exchange-traded mutual funds and publicly-traded equity securities. If quoted prices are not available to determine fair value, the company uses other inputs that are observable either directly or indirectly. Assets included in level 2 generally consist of U.S. Government agency securities, municipal bonds, asset-backed securities and certain corporate bonds. The level 2 marketable securities were measured at fair value based on matrix pricing using prices of similar securities with similar inputs such as maturity dates, interest rates and credit ratings. There were no level 3 assets that were valued on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2011. In addition, there were no liabilities valued at fair value on a recurring basis.   Financial assets recorded in the consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2011 were classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that was significant to each asset's fair value measurement.

investment in BM&FBOVESPA, which has been recorded at fair value using its quoted market price. The fair value of our investment in BM&FBOVESPA was $485.5 million at September 30, 2011. Until February 2011, this investment was recorded at cost due to restrictions on sale of the stock that exceeded a one year time period. Equity investments are included in other assets in the consolidated balance sheets. There were no transfers of assets between level 1 and level 2 during the first nine months of 2011. Additionally, there were no assets or liabilities valued at fair value on a recurring or non-recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs during the first nine months of 2011. </div>

indefinite-lived intangible assets at least annually. In the third quarter of 2011, the company adopted the accounting guidance on goodwill impairment testing that was issued in September 2011. The guidance allows companies to perform a qualitative assessment of goodwill that may allow them to omit the annual two-step impairment test. During the second quarter of 2010, the company recorded a $19.8 million impairment charge to reduce the carrying amount of Credit Market Analysis, Ltd. (CMA) goodwill to its estimated fair value.

4. Income Taxes The company's effective tax rate decreased to 31.9% in the first nine months of 2011 from 41.6% in the first nine months of 2010. The effective tax rate decreased by 7.5% due to a tax benefit of $118.1 million resulting from a change in state tax apportionment in the first quarter of 2011. This change resulted in a reduction in the income tax provision primarily due to a revaluation of existing deferred tax liabilities. The effective tax rate also decreased by 3.1% due to a $48.8 million reduction in valuation allowances on unrealized capital losses previously reserved. The company began marking-to-market its investment in BM&FBOVESPA S.A. (BM&FBOVESPA) in the first quarter of 2011. As a result of this change, the company determined that it is now more likely than not that the deferred tax assets associated with losses on other investments will be recognized. In addition to the valuation allowance reductions that decreased the company's effective tax rate, the company also reversed a valuation allowance of $64.3 million related to its investment in BM&FBOVESPA, which increased accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in the first quarter of 2011. The valuation allowance was reversed because the company began marking-to-market its investment in BM&FBOVEPA in the first quarter of 2011.

6. Guarantees CME Clearing Contract Settlement. CME marks-to-market open positions for most products at least twice a day, and requires payment from clearing firms whose positions have lost value and makes payments to clearing firms whose positions have gained value. For select cleared-only markets, positions are marked-to-market once daily, with the capability to mark-to-market more frequently as market conditions warrant. Under the extremely unlikely scenario of simultaneous default by every clearing firm who has open positions with unrealized losses, the maximum exposure related to CME's guarantee would be one half day of changes in fair value of all open positions, before considering CME's ability to access defaulting clearing firms' performance bond and guaranty fund balances as well as other available resources. During the first nine months of 2011, CME transferred an average of approximately $3.0 billion a day through its clearing system for settlement from clearing firms whose positions had lost value to clearing firms whose positions had gained value. CME reduces its guarantee exposure through initial and maintenance performance bond requirements and mandatory guaranty fund contributions. The company believes that its guarantee liability is immaterial and therefore has not recorded any liability at September 30, 2011. Mutual Offset Agreement. CME and Singapore Exchange Limited (SGX) have a mutual offset agreement with a current term through October 2012. The term of the agreement will automatically renew for a one-year period unless either party provides advance notice of their intent to terminate. CME can maintain collateral in the form of U.S. Treasury securities or irrevocable letters of credit. At September 30, 2011, CME was contingently liable to SGX on irrevocable letters of credit totaling $161.0 million. Regardless of the collateral, CME guarantees all cleared transactions submitted through SGX and would initiate procedures designed to satisfy these financial obligations in the event of a default, such as the use of performance bonds and guaranty fund contributions of the defaulting clearing firm. Cross-Margin Agreements. CME and The Options Clearing Corporation (OCC) have a cross-margin arrangement, whereby a common clearing firm may maintain a cross-margin account in which the clearing firm's positions in certain CME futures and options on futures contracts are combined with certain positions cleared by OCC for purposes of calculating performance bond requirements. The performance bond deposits are held jointly by CME and OCC. If a participating firm defaults, the gain or loss on the liquidation of the firm's open position and the proceeds from the liquidation of the cross-margin account would be allocated 50% each to CME and OCC. Cross-margin agreements exist with CME and Fixed Income Clearing Corp (FICC) whereby the clearing firms' offsetting positions with CME are subject to reduced margin requirements. Clearing firms maintain separate performance bond deposits with each clearing house, but depending on the net offsetting positions between CME and FICC, each clearing house may reduce the firm's performance bond requirement. In the event of a firm default, the total liquidation net gain or loss on the firm's offsetting open positions and the proceeds from the liquidation of the performance bond collateral held by each clearing house's supporting offsetting positions would be divided evenly between CME and FICC. Additionally, if, after liquidation of all the positions and collateral of the defaulting firm at each respective clearing organization, and taking into account any cross-margining loss sharing payments, any of the participating clearing organizations has a remaining liquidating surplus, and any other participating clearing organization has a remaining liquidating deficit, any additional surplus from the liquidation would be shared with the other clearing house to the extent that it has a remaining liquidating deficit. Any remaining surplus funds would be passed to the bankruptcy trustee.

5. Contingencies Legal Matters. In 2008, Fifth Market filed a complaint against CME Group and CME seeking a permanent injunction against CME's Globex system and unquantified enhanced damages for what the plaintiff alleges is willful infringement of two U.S. patents, in addition to costs, expenses and attorneys' fees. The matter has been stayed pending the outcome of a reexamination of one of the patents at issue by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO). Based on its investigation to date and advice from legal counsel, the company believes this suit is without merit and intends to defend itself vigorously against these charges. In 2009, CME and CBOT filed a complaint against Howard Garber seeking a declaratory judgment that neither CME nor CBOT infringed Mr. Garber's patent and that his patent is invalid and unenforceable. In 2009, Technology Research Group LLC, the current owner of the patent at issue, filed counterclaims alleging that CME and CBOT willingly infringe or induce or contribute to the infringement of its patent. Technology Research is seeking damages in the amount no less than a reasonable royalty. The matter has been dismissed without prejudice with right to reinstate pending reexamination of the patent at issue by the USPTO and all settlement possibilities are evaluated. Based on its investigation to date and advice from legal counsel, the company believes this suit is without merit and intends to defend itself vigorously against these charges. In 2009, Realtime Data LLC filed a complaint against CME Group and other exchanges alleging willful infringement of four patents which was later amended to add CBOT and NYMEX as defendants. Subsequently, two additional lawsuits have been filed each adding a claim for the infringement of an additional patent. Both of these lawsuits have been consolidated with the original action. Realtime Data is seeking a permanent injunction, unquantified enhanced damages, attorneys' fees and costs. Discovery in this matter is in the early stages. The Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit has ordered that the case be transferred to the Southern District of New York. Realtime's request for reconsideration of the transfer has been denied and the case has been transferred to New York. Based on its investigation to date and advice from legal counsel, the company believes this suit is without merit and intends to defend itself vigorously against these charges. The foregoing legal matters involve alleged infringements of intellectual property, which due to their nature involve potential liability that is uncertain, difficult to quantify and involve a wide range of potential outcomes. The company believes that the matters are without merit and intends to defend itself vigorously against the claims. We expect the reexaminations by the USPTO in the Fifth Market and Garber matters to result in a determination of the validity of the patents at issue which we expect will have an impact on the merits of the matters. Given the uncertainty of the potential outcome of the reexaminations, at this time the company is unable to estimate the reasonably possible loss or range of reasonably possible loss in the unlikely event it were found to be liable at trial in these matters. In the Realtime matter, no estimate of our reasonably possible loss or range of reasonably possible loss may be made at this time because the damages sought in the proceeding have not been quantified or substantiated and the discovery phase of the matter is in the early stages. In addition, the company is a defendant in, and has potential for, various other legal proceedings arising from its regular business activities. While the ultimate results of such proceedings against the company cannot be predicted with certainty, the company believes that the resolution of any of these matters on an individual basis or in the aggregate will not have a material impact on its consolidated financial position or results of operations.   Regulatory Matters. In the normal course of business, the company discusses matters with its regulators raised during regulatory examinations or otherwise subject to their inquiry and oversight. These matters could result in censures, fines, penalties or other sanctions. Management believes the outcome of any resulting actions will not have a material impact on its consolidated financial position or results of operations. However, the company is unable to predict the outcome or the timing of the ultimate resolution of these matters, or the potential fines, penalties or injunctive or other equitable relief, if any, that may result from these matters. Intellectual Property Indemnifications. Certain agreements with customers and other third parties related to accessing the CME Globex platform, the CME ClearPort platform, and/or the Clearing 21 platform; utilizing market data services; licensing CME SPAN software; and calculating indexes as a service provider and licensing indexes as the basis of financial products may contain indemnifications from intellectual property claims that may be made against them as a result of their use of the applicable products and/or services. The potential future claims relating to these indemnifications cannot be estimated and, therefore, no liability has been recorded.

11. Subsequent Events <div> The company has evaluated subsequent events through the date the financial statements were issued and has determined that there are no subsequent events that require disclosure except for the following: On November 4, 2011, CME Group, Index Services and The McGraw-Hill Companies Inc. (McGraw-Hill) announced that they had entered into an agreement to establish a new index business venture. Under the terms of the agreement, CME Group will contribute certain assets of Index Services, its index business venture with Dow Jones, in which it currently owns a 90% interest. Subsequent to closing, CME Group will own a 24.4% interest in the new index business venture. As part of the agreement, CME Group will also sell CMA to McGraw-Hill. The transaction is expected to close by June 2012, subject to regulatory approval and customary closing conditions. As part of the agreement, Standard & Poor's Financial Services LLC (S&P), a subsidiary of McGraw-Hill, and CME will enter into a new license agreement, which will replace the existing license agreement between them. The term of the license will continue until the later of December 31, 2017 or one year after the date that CME Group ceases to own at least five percent of the outstanding index business venture interests. Based on the agreement, the term may be extended up to an additional ten years under certain circumstances. Under the new license agreement, the index business venture will provide CME Group a license to use certain S&P stock indexes as the basis for futures, options, swaps and other derivative contracts. CME Group will have an exclusive license for certain S&P stock indexes for futures and options. In exchange for the license, CME Group will pay a quarterly fee based on a percentage of CME Group's overall equity index complex profits. </div>

At September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, other amortizable intangible assets consisted of service and market maker agreements and a definite-lived trade name. In the second quarter of 2011, the company sold its rights in certain Index Services customer relationships for $18.0 million. The net book value of these assets at the time of the sale was $8.2 million. Other activity includes adjustments to restructuring costs and tax contingencies, the recognition of excess tax benefits upon exercise of stock options and foreign currency translation adjustments. Trading products represent futures and options products acquired in our business combinations with CBOT Holdings and NYMEX Holdings. Clearing and transaction fees revenues are generated through the trading of these products. These trading products, most of which have traded for decades, require authorization from the Commodity and Futures Trading Commission (CFTC). Product authorizations from the CFTC have no term limits. In September 2008, the company entered into an interest rate swap agreement that modified the variable interest obligation associated with this facility so that the interest payable effectively became fixed at a rate of 4.72% beginning with the interest accrued after October 22, 2008. This interest rate swap agreement was terminated in January 2011 when the term loan was repaid. In February 2010, the company entered into a forward-starting interest rate swap agreement that modified the interest obligation associated with these notes so that the interest payable effectively became fixed at a rate of 4.46% at issuance on March 18, 2010.
