| NON-PERIODIC CHANGES ON CONSTITUENT STOCKS |
Under such circumstances which require changes on constituent stocks of the indices based on the public disclosures of the companies, the company should have delivered the statement to the PDP until 16:30 (or 12:00 if a half day) on the business day that precedes the realization date. Otherwise, the relevant change will be made so that it will be effective on the second business day that succeeds the delivery of the statement to PDP.
