On June 4, 2014, in connection with the planned initial public offering of Euronext, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Intercontinental Exchange, Inc.

Mr. Hessels resignation is contingent on the Company holding less than 30% of the issued share capital of Euronext after completion of the initial public offering. Similarly, the draft prospectus disclosed that Jeffrey Sprecher, Scott Hill and Jean-Marc Forneri will resign from the Euronext Supervisory Board if the Company holds less than 30% of the issued share capital of Euronext after completion of the initial public offering. 

 

There have been no disagreements between Mr. Hessels and the Company on any matters related to the Company’s operations, policies or practices. Mr. Hessels is not a member of any committees of the Board of Directors of the Company.
