#: B0846-11
Date: August 5, 2011
To: All Participants
Category: Settlement
From: Settlement Department
Attention: Settlement Manager/Managing Director/Cashier
Subject: Clean up of Aged Fails in Select Globally Locked CUSIPs
DTC will support a program to facilitate the industry's clean up of aged fails in select globally
locked securities. This notice details the information necessary for firms to participate in this
program, which is scheduled to occur during the period August 15, 2011 through August 19,
2011.
Background
DTC may impose certain restrictions on a security in situations where DTC may become aware of
certain potentially illegal or otherwise questionable features of a security, its issuer or other principal
parties. In addition, DTC may place restrictions when it has been informed by the issuer or its agent,
regulators or law enforcement, or has other compliance concerns that its Cede & Co certificate
inventory has been compromised due to unauthorized, altered, fraudulent or counterfeit share issuance.
If DTC reasonably suspects that all or a portion of its street name holdings of a security, may not be
fungible and freely transferable as required for DTC services, it may decide, with respect to that
security, to chill one or more of its services or place a global lock on all services, as it deems
appropriate.
Impact of a Global Lock and Trade Fails
A global lock on a security prevents the security from being transferred on the books of DTC and
otherwise restricts any DTC activity with respect to the security. For so long as the global lock is in
effect, Participants are unable to settle any further trades in that security, as their inventory is frozen
and settlement of pending trades will fail. If counterparties nevertheless continue to trade in a security
which is globally locked and those trades are submitted to DTC for settlement, those trades will also
fail and be rejected in DTC’s system.
In connection with certain designated CUSIPs (see Exhibit A attached), although DTC issued an
Important Notice to its Participants to advise that the global lock was implemented, many Participants
Non-Confidential 2
did not immediately stop trading in these securities and additional trades occurred, so that firms
experienced a growing number of trade fails.
DTC has been working proactively with the industry to increase awareness of our global lock process,
to eliminate these difficulties in future. DTC also enhanced its procedures to expedite the release of
any Important Notice reflecting a global lock, so firms can promptly halt trading in affected securities.
Additionally, DTC implemented on June 10, 2011 a global lock reason [code] on its security master
file and related outputs (ELIS and DWIZ files - see important notice B-0811-11 dated May 24, 2011 -
http://www.dtcc.com/downloads/legal/imp_notices/2011/dtc/ope/0811-11.pdf) to allow Participants to receive
an automated notification in the event a global lock occurs. This enhancement provides Participants
the ability to update their systems to automatically block future trading of affected securities, as well as
alerting Compliance areas of the Participants so that they may investigate activity related to these
securities.
Despite these improvements, Participants and DTC have a legacy issue of accumulated trade fails that
occurred prior to these enhancements.
Proposed Solution
Working with the Participants, DTC identified a number of options and determined that the preferred
solution is to lift the global lock on designated CUSIPs for a limited period of time, to allow
Participants to take appropriate steps (including any appropriate segregation updates) to make
deliveries that will resolve outstanding fails in the designated CUSIPs. DTC will report all such deliver
orders during the specified period to the Securities and Exchange Commission.
DTC cautions participants that, if a participant were to make or receive deliveries to or from a
party other than the original counterparty or the NSCC assigned counterparty, which resulted in
the fails in the designated CUSIP, change of such counterparty to the transaction likely would be
deemed to be effecting a new transaction.
Securities subject to a trading halt by the Commission will be excluded from this program. The
attached list will be re-verified during the Amnesty period and if any securities are subsequently found
to be subject to a trading halt, they will be excluded at that time and Participants will be informed via a
subsequent important notice.
As to these designated CUSIPs, however, DTC will not lift the related deposit chill. If there are failed
deliveries in these CUSIPs that are dependent upon physical securities held outside of DTC, settlement
of those trades must be effected by physical delivery outside of DTC.
As outlined below, DTC will offer Participants the opportunity to make the necessary updates and
deliveries to complete their failed transactions during a specified limited time period, as follows:
DTC will lift the global lock and the SEG chill on Friday night, August 12, 2011 until
approximately 5:00 PM Friday night August 19, 2011. DTC will maintain chills on other
services including deposits and withdrawals to prevent any unintended transactions from
occurring. This update will permit participants the ability to send in their memo seg
instructions and permit them to segregate or release positions in these securities for several days
in advance of the delivery time period outlined below,
Non-Confidential 3
The Eligible Securities (ELIS) files will systematically reflect the global lock and SEG chill
removals and are typically available to participants between 7:30 PM and 8:00 PM EST each
day.
The Data Delivery Service (DWIZ) change files will also reflect the global lock and SEG chill
removals and are typically available to participants between 9:00 PM and 10:00 PM EST each
day.
In addition, on the evening of August 17, 2011, DTC will also remove the DO chill on all
CUSIPs identified below. This change will also be reflected in the ELIS and DWIZ files
created on the night of August 17, 2011. This will allow all participants to submit deliver
orders to DTC for processing on the next 2 business days, August 18 and August 19, 2011.
Obligation Warehouse (OW) users should include the OW control number on all DOs to ensure
that the settlement status associated with these obligations is updated in the OW.
These CUSIPs will maintain this “unlocked” status until the night of August 19. This will
permit participants to have two business days to process instructions against an ELIS and
DWIZ files that contains the changes to the affected CUSIPs.
DTC will continue to accept MSEG, SEG and Deliver Order and reclaim instructions for all
CUSIPs identified below until the applicable valued cutoffs occur or approximately 5:00 PM on
August 19, 2011.
Prior to the night cycle beginning on August 19, 2011, DTC will restore all CUSIPs to their
original status by reinstating the SEG and DO chills as well as the applicable global locks. Any
future dated transactions or additional input after the status is reinstated, e.g., memo seg, Night
Deliver Orders will reject.
If you have any questions regarding this notice, please contact your Relationship Manager.
