Stress Scenario Analysis – Downgrade

Potential Impact on MF Global

• Evaluated and developed a “break-the-glass” plan through discussions

with key global business leadership:

- Downgrade to sub-investment grade by at least 2 rating agencies

- Analysis performed on key operating entities (MF Inc and MF UK Limited)

- Scenarios considered significant disruption to funding capabilities

- Operational plans for each functional area, including preparation and immediate reactions,

have been considered and continue to develop

- Dialogue continues, including maintaining/updating these analyses

• Key message:

- We remain solvent – are able to manage liquidity through stress period as we

reposition our business and stabilize our financing lines

Key Takeaways

Based on the review of the business, capital and liquidity position as well as

several stressed risk scenarios, including a downgrade below investment grade,

several conclusions emerged:

• Expectations from the business are an approximate 30

percent decline in revenues+ potential equity impairment

• Balance sheet would be significantly reduced

• Revolver and external liabilities would need to be repaid

Significant P&L and B/S

implications

• Current levels of liquidity provides management a relatively

short amount of time to assess and execute tactical and

strategic business alternatives

Buys time to re-evaluate

Liquidity sufficient

• Credit rating may necessitate a review and reshaping of

current business model and strategic direction Reshaping of the business

• Based on the analysis, we believe there is sufficient

liquidity to manage through one month under a severe

stress event

Impact of a Downgrade – What happens?

Main Stressed Uses of Cash

Main Mitigants of Cash

1. Financing of corporate paper becomes stressed = $1.0 to $1.5 billion

2. Financing haircuts are increased by MF to maintain liquidity on other asset classes = $100 - $150mm

3. Clearing houses increase margin requirements = $200 - $250mm

4. Reduction in un-committed boxes at BONY Mellon = $100mm

5. Excess client balances are withdrawn (mainly institutional clients) = $100mm

1. Revolver draw = $0.9 billion

2. Liquidation of corporate paper / recover higher haircuts from clients where possible = $0.75 - $1.0 billion

3. Liquidation of other hard-to-finance inventory positions while minimizing P&L impact = $100mm

Downgrade Impact By Business

Quick Decisions to be made

If a ratings downgrade is imminent, a number of critical decisions will need to

be made:

• Repos - What are the maturities? Do we extend maturities? Do we start now?

What is the P&L impact?

• RTMs - Biggest draw on cash today – how do we respond and what are our

options? Can we novate? Hedge fully? Tenor of hedge (unwind after the

storm)? Need a clear strategy for this.

Repos / RTM

• How do we optimize liquidity while minimizing impact to P&L? Liquidity

Draw on Revolver

• Reshaping the business model: Who do we want to be? What business

do we want to keep? What can be sold? What do we need to keep the

company solvent?

Business Model

• When to draw? How much? How long? What message are we

sending to the banks? To the investors? Drawing too much, too soon

could pre-signal distress.

Risk Liquidity Stress Analysis

I. Immediate Decision Making Required

• Business Impact (Earnings depletion, Balance Sheet shrinkage due to lower leverage, etc.)

- Once the downgrade is imminent (per communication from the credit agencies, etc.) there are a number of critical decisions to make with

significant implications.

• Drawing on the revolver: When to draw (immediately or after announcement); how much of the revolver should be drawn (all or

partial) – a thoughtful, sophisticated analysis needs to be performed on each of these decisions and a need to consider the message

that goes out to the public, relationships with banks; rumors could have significant impact.

• Liquidity - How do we optimize immediate liquidity with the least amount of P&L Impact; sale/unwinding/liquidate inventory and MF

boxed positions.

• Repos – how to respond – extend maturities? Do we start now or wait until downgrade, what is P&L loss, how much liquidity is being

generated, what is the message to the street if we start to do this?

• RTMs – biggest draw on cash today; loss today less the margins posted; generate liquidity with large P&L loss – decisions: hedge

fully, hedge for a short term (2-3 months and then unwind after the storm), novate? How will LCH respond, how much in excess of

margin will be required, time period, can/will they force us out? Legal restrictions, terms of agreements? Need a clear strategy and

plan for RTM portfolio.

• Communication to the regulators, banks, investors, employees – Who communications, what is the message, etc.

- There are restrictions on the credit quality of assets that institutional investors can invest in (most are restricted from holding “non-

investment grade” or “high yield” securities or taking unsecured credit exposure to such Firms). This has both positive and negative

implications.

• Business Model - It is necessary to determine how much is held by institutional investors and to estimate the potential loss; what is

needed to run the business, which businesses do we potentially want to lose and concentrate on the areas we want/need to save;

who do we want to be after the storm? How quickly do we want to send cash back to clients, what is the message if we do not send

immediately, what is the strategy if we want to keep the customer and wait until the storm passes. Do we revert back to agency-type

business.

• Ultimately, clients might not want to do business with us immediately after a downgrade, but it is how we handle ourselves during the

downgrade that will determine if they want to do business with us in the future.

11

II. Operational Considerations and Responses

• Operational Considerations

- How will the multiple lines of business (BO/MO/FO/Static Data/Account Management/IT) co-exist to handle the vast increase in client requests?

• Expected vast increase in redemptions that will put tremendous pressure on all lines of business to handle the excess.

- Each function should have an “Emergency Plan” that would outline roles and responsibilities in a downgrade situation to help prevent disorder and

chaos.

- Investor relations and corporate communications need plans specifically for a credit downgrade and addressing the media and clients alike

- Front Office and IR should plan together on what should be said and what needs to be said. One trader saying something that a client perceives as

negative could spread very quickly across Wall Street and beyond.

- “Weathering the storm” is critical to the plan if the firm is to survive. Senior Management should be briefed on what a potential downgrade could mean to

their roles (i.e., the middle office should understand that they are going to be buried with all kinds of requests coming from both back and front offices

due to redemptions, people cancelling business, etc) and plan to properly communicate to all of their employees the messaging from corporate

communications;

• Operational Response

- Most normal business operations will cease and the firm should focus on “disaster recovery”

- Investor Relations and Corporate Communications ready to respond and handle the situation with a unified, consistent message that is communicated

throughout the organization and externally to all counterparties; Everything from being respectful when answering questions, to being able to properly

transfer them to the account management department to help close their account. Excess manpower should be provided to this group to handle the

rush of calls.

- Directly contact all regulators and start the communication/address concerns;

- Allocate manpower efficiently to handle all of the excess issues resulting from a downgrade;

- Legal/Compliance/Investor Relations/Executive Management/Front Office proactively fielding questions/calls from clients, exchanges and regulators

- All support functions maintaining „all hands on deck‟ with all relevant team members for the foreseeable future

III. Initial Workstreams by Function

Treasury:

Concerns/Plan - concerns for Treasury are reflected throughout this presentation; response to the plan of action are included below:

- Prepare for Revolver draw

- Monitor secured financing stress

- Monitor inventory positions

- Monitor client funds withdrawals

- Monitor funding requirements from clearing houses and regulators

- Monitor off-balance sheet liquidity events (RTMs, customer financing lines, etc.)

Finance:

- All hands on deck from an accounting and analysis perspective;

- Ensure seg calcs are done daily

- Ensure the completeness and accuracy of daily p&l calculations

- Meet all reporting needs (i.e. internal management reporting/external regulatory reporting)

Compliance:

Concerns:

• Messaging to the street: key business decisions (i.e. terming repos) made on reducing exposures could send the wrong message if not handled

appropriately; rumors could significantly impact our ability to survive;

Plan:

• No specific responsibilities but all hands on deck, on the floor, helping respond to queries and actioning, as well as helping to contact regulators as

requested.

Operations: Concerns are addressed throughout the document; response to the plan of action are included below:

• No specific responsibilities above daily and beyond normal business other than handling the sheer volume of client redemptions in a rational and

orderly manner, ensuring customer accounts are handled appropriately; concentration on transactions with external counterparties, sec

lending/borrowing/tri-party trades; but all hands on deck.

IT: Concerns are addressed throughout the document; response to the plan of action are included below:

• No specific responsibilities above daily and beyond normal business other than increased scruitiny around our trading platforms and ensuring they

are stable as more activity on part of some of our traders, pricing of trades and pricing glitches; need to be have appropriate resources to monitor

security on the systems, turning off access as appropriate and providing access where necessary. All hands on deck

14

III. Initial Workstreams by Function (continued)

Investor Relations:

Concerns:

• Significant pressure on equity creating broader client implications

• Analyst downgrades, earnings and price target revisions

• Prominent and broad based negative media coverage

• Client withdrawals

• Liquidity rumors

Plan:

• Investor Relations, Corporate Communications, and Marketing are responsible for communication and messaging both internally and

externally; teams already have detailed plans in place on how to respond to this situation; need to ensure these plans are known by

executive and senior management and that the messaging both internally and external are consistent and executed appropriately.

Legal:

Plans:

- Reviewed (1) all material (non-customer) contracts, including revolver, long term debt, Series A & B, non-committed bank facilities,

etc. and (2) sample customer and other trading agreements (e.g., electronic trading agreements) for any contractual provisions

implicated in the event of a downgrade, liquidity crisis and/or as a result of other trigger events post downgrade (including demands

for adequate assurances);

- Updating information re all regulators, exchanges and clearinghouses and anyone else we are legally obligated to notify (or

otherwise should notify) in immediate response to downgrade (or other triggers); compiled all triggers for notification and/or other

reasons we would reach out, contact points and best relationship people to make contacts; messaging to be coordinated with IR;

- Updating customer document re security of customer funds and improving detail as necessary or helpful;

- Make sure using right assumptions based on where ratings action effective if only by one rating agency vs majority;

- Consider options to current structure of trading relationships (between US & UK) and the regulatory and accounting implications on

any change to this structure;

- Consider whether any limits to the requirements FSA can impose and develop contingency plan to approach Federal Reserve Bank

(NY and Washington) and possibly Treasury for support if FSA requests might threaten firm.

- Overall – significant impact on business (greater than 50% likely); higher haircut and higher expense

- Ratings Downgrade: Junk Status (50%) estimated change lose of counterparties and their funding;

- (A) $4b in Treasury/Agencies (customer cash providers, lose all in terms of bi-lateral business (6 counterparties); funding can be made up with FICC

counterparties (higher haircut/expense); (B) $3b in Agency/MBS, lose 10-12 counterparts ($275m down to 100m in liquidity); (C) Investment grade

Corporates (lose more than half of the 10 counterparts) & lose funding ($2b down to $1b in funding which is a direct drain, no CCP offset; of the

customers that stay, will mean required higher haircuts, cannot fund but can sell out of portfolio and take a p&l hit; (D) match-book income lost – both

sides of balance sheet ($200m funding) – excess liquidity lost; GCF higher haircuts (another $50m loss)

- Financing: impacted immediately, additional margin support required

- Clearing: negative impact on revenues and volume, clients would have to set up new clearing arrangements

• Increased collateral requirements, revised settlement funding lines, increase clearing/settlement charges

- Given current Fixed Income dynamics globally, the profits on the Fixed Income business are already lagging, but any trigger event could reduce the

profits to “razor-thin” levels.

• Foreign Exchange

- Overall – significant impact on business, especially in the US where currently building the business (40% likely)

- Ratings Downgrade: Junk Status (40%) estimated change

- CLS Bank Settlement Impact: - An additional factor following a significant "trigger event" would be the potential reluctance of our CLS settlement bank

to continue to provide FX settlement services. This is something that MFG has experienced historically, and there are a limited number of banks that

offer these services.- Following a downgrade or "trigger event", liquidity providers would be even less inclined to settle trades bilaterally with MFG

outside of CLS (other than in the instances where MFG had "winning" trades which they may wish to delay settlement on if it appeared that we were in

distress), so this would have significant impacts and would mean that we would not be able to execute business.

• Retail

- Overall – potentially less material impact on business (less than 25% likely)

- Ratings Downgrade: Junk Status (25%) estimated change

- General Brokerage (UK/Welch): $1.6b held, benefits from very strong long-standing customer relationships., which with management of the news

flow and reassurance of the Desk Head should limit the flight of customers, and this was the case historically.

- Electronic Direct / Online Trading: (US/Sachs): $1.0b

- CFD + FO (APAC): $200-250 million, we have a greater exposure to white label F/O than we do to CFDs (which are manufactured by DB).

VI. Business Line Impact continued…

• Commodities

- Overall – significant impact on business (potentially greater than 40% if junk status)

- Ratings Downgrade: Junk Status greater than (40%) estimated change

- Metals: Less significantly impacted than other 2 – from historical figures and customer relationships in UK, believe it would be hit (20-25%)

- Agriculture: Significantly impacted, upwards of 50% decline in revenues;

- Energy: Significantly impacted (already currently impacted due to market cap and stock price); upwards of 50% decline in revenues;

- Regulatory capital for commodities is $300 million; margin requirements $2 to $3 billion, it would cause $800 million in balances to be pulled out (30-

40%).

- Expect Metals (mostly non-seg customers in UK) cash surplus would likely reduce from $200 million to $100 million.

• Equities

• Overall – potentially less material impact to business (approx 10%, maybe 15% if junk status and/or multiple events occurred )

• Ratings Downgrade: not significant impacted due to the nature of the business (85% DVP).

- Cash Equity: makes up 46% of US Equities, mostly DVP and as such, a trigger event will not have a vast impact;

- Equity Derivs: makes up 37%, largely consists of listed derivatives and are largely DVP, a trigger event will not have a vast impact (looking to build up

OTC Equity Derivs, but not applicable at this time);

- Electric Trading: DMA makes up 11% (of which 30% is flat @ EOD) and the rest is 6%, this business is largely DVP, a trigger event will have a

minimum impact;

• Interest Rate Products

- Overall – non-material impact on business between(10%-15%) likely

- Ratings Downgrade: Junk status Lose clearing accounts

- Execution: accounts for close to 85% of the business, given past considerations the phone lines were back up to normal business in a few days.

- Clearing: would not be affected greatly but when the split between execution and clearing trends towards 60/40 in the future the impact will be greater.

• Prime Services

- Overall – non-material impact on business (less than 10% likely)

- Ratings Downgrade: not significantly impacted due to the nature of the business and client relationships;

- Client Solutions: across these lines of business there is $4.6 billion in capitalization in what are considered “Middle Markets”.

- 90% of this is deemed to be safe considering the nature of the client relationships

- The 10% lost will be due to the largest CTA‟s and hedge funds
