The consultation period for this price discontinuation will end one month from the date of this pricing notice on Tuesday February 11, with changes taking place, subject to market feedback, from February 14.

If you are affected by this price discontinuation or to provide feedback please contact pricing@fastmarkets.com. by February 11. Please
