Pursuant to my voicemail, below is the email from the Chairman. He wants to know why the<br />

below securities weren't threshold on Sept. 17, but were threshold on Sept. 26. We were<br />

wondering if you could pull the fails data, see who's failing in the securities, and also<br />

let us know if these are optionable securities.<br />

Erik is meeting with the Chairman at 3pm today. So, any info by then would be fantastic.<br />

Thanks!!<br />

From the Chairman. It must be the case the market makers are failing here? But OMM is<br />

now gone, and we're at T+3. What is your guess as to the source and mechanism.<br />

Chairman Cox:<br />

The following companies, included in the <strong>SEC</strong>'s Sept. 19 emergency order prohibiting "short<br />

selling any publicly traded securities of any Included Financial Firm" are on the NYSE SHO<br />

Threshold list for Sept 26 and NOT for Sept 17:<br />

BAC (pr j), DSL, FIG, KEY (pr g), RGA(.a), USB (PR L), WHI and WM.<br />

This has been my point all along. Why short sell when you can simply fail to deliver? You<br />

achieve the same purpose and save the time and cost of borrowing.<br />

Please, enforce finality of settlement.<br />

Sincerely,<br />
