Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration
The Reporting Person acquired shares of Class A Common Stock as a result of the following
transactions:
On February 26, 2008, Bolsa de Mercadorias & Futuros BM&F S.A., a predecessor company of
BVMF (BM&F), acquired 1,189,066 shares of Class A Common Stock, pursuant to a Master Agreement,
dated as of January 22, 2008, with the Issuer in exchange for 101,078,580 common registered shares,
no par value, of BM&F.
On June 22, 2010, BVMF entered into a Share Purchase and Investor Rights Agreement (the Share
Purchase Agreement) with the Issuer providing for, among other provisions, BVMFs increase in its
ownership interest in the Issuer as part of the expansion of their existing strategic partnership.
On July 16, 2010, pursuant to the Share Purchase Agreement, BVMF acquired 2,206,478 shares of Class
A Common Stock for $275.12 per share and an aggregate purchase price of $607,046,227.36. BVMF
obtained the funds for the acquisition of these securities from the issuance of $612 million of
10-year notes issued in a transaction pursuant to Rule 144A and Regulation S under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction
BVMF acquired shares of Class A Common Stock as an investment. The Issuer and BVMF entered
into the Share Purchase Agreement as part of a series of transactions to further the existing
strategic partnership between BVMF and the Issuer. Pursuant to the Share Purchase Agreement, BVMF
is entitled to designate one board member to the Issuers board of directors as long BVMF continues
to own at least (a) 2,037,327 shares of Class A Common
Stock or (b) 2% of the outstanding shares of Class A
Page 3 of 8
Common Stock, provided certain other conditions are satisfied.
In connection with BVMFs director designation rights, the Issuer agreed to use its best
efforts to increase the size of its board of directors. The foregoing summary of the Share Purchase
Agreement in this Item is qualified in its entirety by reference to the actual agreement, which is
filed as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and incorporated by reference into this Item.
BVMF will continuously evaluate its ownership of the Class A Common Sock, and the Issuers
business and industry. Depending upon ongoing evaluations of prevailing market conditions and other
investment opportunities or considerations BVMF deems material to its investment decision, BVMF may
from time to time acquire or dispose of the Issuers securities in the open market or privately
negotiated transactions, in accordance with and subject to the terms of the Share Purchase
Agreement, including the applicable transfer restrictions on the Class A Common Stock (as described
in Item 6 below).
Except as described herein, neither the Reporting Person, and to the best of its knowledge,
none of the persons listed on Schedule I hereto, has present plans or proposals that relate to or
would result in any of the actions described in Item 4(a) through (j), inclusive, of Item 4 of
Schedule 13D under Rule 13d-1(a).
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer
(a) The responses of the Reporting Person with respect to Rows 11, 12 and 13 of the cover page
of this Schedule 13D that relate to the aggregate number and percentage of Class A Common Stock
beneficially owned are incorporated herein by reference. Mr. Craig S. Donohue, the Chief Executive
Officer of the Issuer and a board member of BVMF, beneficially owns 101,677 shares of Class A
Common Stock, which includes a total of 74,943 options that will vest within 60 days from the date
hereof. The shares beneficially owned by Mr. Donohue represent 0.1% of the total outstanding shares
of Class A Common Stock. With respect to all other persons referenced in Item 2 above, no such
person beneficially owns shares of Class A Common Stock.
The calculation of the foregoing percentages is based on the number of shares of Class A
Common Stock as represented to by the Issuer in the Share Purchase Agreement, and adding the
issuance of shares of Class A Common Stock pursuant to the Share Purchase Agreement.
(b) The responses of the Reporting Person with respect to Rows 7, 8, 9 and 10 of the cover
pages of this Schedule 13D that relate to the number of shares which BVMF has sole power to vote or
to direct the vote, shared power to vote or to direct the vote and sole or shared power to dispose
or to direct the disposition are incorporated herein by reference. To the best of BVMFs knowledge,
Mr. Donohue has the sole power to vote or to direct the vote and to dispose of all of the shares of
Class A Common Stock beneficially owned by him.
(c) Except for the transactions described in this Schedule 13D, during the past 60 days there
have been no other transactions in the securities of the Issuer effected by BVMF or, to the best of
BVMFs knowledge, the persons or entities referenced in Item 2 above.
(d) Not applicable.
(e) Not applicable.
Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer
Share Purchase Agreement
On June 22, 2010, the Issuer and BVMF entered into the Share Purchase Agreement filed as
Exhibit 99.1 hereto and incorporated by reference into this Item. Pursuant to the Share Purchase
Agreement, the Issuer issued and sold to BVMF 2,206,478 shares of Class A Common Stock for a
purchase price of $275.12 per share.
Transfer Restrictions
Under the terms of the Share Purchase Agreement, BVMF is restricted from transferring any of
the shares of Class A Common Stock prior to February 27, 2012, subject to certain exceptions for
transfers to, among others, its affiliates and the Issuer under certain circumstances. The
transfer restrictions would terminate upon the occurrence of certain change of control transactions
with respect to the Issuer.
Page 4 of 8
Registration Rights
The Issuer agreed that, prior to the expiration of the transfer restrictions described above,
upon a request by BVMF, it will file a registration statement on Form S-3 for the public offering
of the shares of Class A Common Stock held by BVMF. The registration rights granted in the Share
Purchase Agreement are subject to customary restrictions such as suspension and blackout periods.
Board Representation
As long BVMF continues to own at least (a) 2,037,327 shares of Class A Common Stock or (b) 2%
of the outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock, and provided certain other conditions are
satisfied, BVMF will be entitled to nominate one director for election to the Issuers board of
directors.
Standstill
As long as BVMF maintains its director designation rights, it will not make or participate in
any solicitation of proxies or make any public announcements with respect to (i) any form of
merger, tender or exchange offer, consolidation, business combination, or change of control or
other similar transaction with respect to the Issuer, (ii) any request to amend, waive or terminate
the standstill provisions under the Share Purchase Agreement or (iii) other proposal or statement
inconsistent with the standstill provisions under the Share Purchase Agreement. The sole remedy
for a breach by BVMF of these restrictions would be a termination by the Issuer of BVMFs director
designation rights and a termination by the Issuer of the Global Strategic Partnership Agreement,
dated as of July 16, 2010, between BVMF and the Issuer.
Rescission
The Issuer can rescind the sale of the shares of Class A Common Stock to BVMF under the Share
Purchase Agreement if the Technology Agreement, dated as of June 22, 2010, between BVMF and the
Chicago Mercantile Exchange Inc., is terminated under certain circumstances.
Other Terms
The Share Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, covenants and
indemnities made by the parties to each other.
All references to, and summaries of, the Share Purchase Agreement in this Statement are
qualified in their entirety by reference to such agreement, the full text of which is filed as
Exhibit 99.1 hereto and which is incorporated herein by reference.
