RADL:

Introduction
Overview

The Receiver Authorized Delivery Limit (RADL) function allows you to set individual bilateral limits
against each possible contra-participant so that you can review transactions exceeding a specified
settlement amount. You can add and delete participants, change bilateral limits for selected
participants, and instruct DTC to turn off or turn on bilateral RAD processing.

Note- The minimum bilateral RAD limit that can be set against contra-parties for Deliver Orders
(DOs) is $15 million; for Payment Orders (POs), it is $1 million.

• Bilateral limits of $15 million for DOs and $1 million for POs will require a receiving
participant to review DO deliveries with a settlement value equal to or greater than $15
million and PO deliveries with a settlement value equal to or greater than $1 million.
• For limits other than $15 million for DOs and $1 million for POs, only deliveries with a
settlement value exceeding the specified limits will be subject to the receiver's RAD
approval.

This function has migrated over to Settlement Web and is no longer available on
PTS/PBS.
RANA:

Introduction
Overview

The Risk Analysis (RANA) function provides you with specific information that will assist you in
identifying and prioritizing expiring voluntary actions. RANA provides a list of all eligible voluntary
reorganization CUSIPs expiring on the day of your inquiry or within ten business days.

Each night, a file is generated listing securities that are set to expire within the next ten business
days. Exposure is calculated for each participant with position in a listed security, using the close-of-
business prices listed via the GWIZfunction.

Note- If DTC is unable to price a security, the exposure will be listed as "N/A. "

RANA informs you if an expiring security is

• A component of a unit.
• A Dutch Auction.
• An underlying security of another CUSIP eligible for DTC's conversion program or warrant
program
• Associated with more than one active envelope.
• Associated with an underlying security for which there is an active envelope.

Types of Expirations and Voluntary Actions

RANA displays the following expiration types:

• Offer expiration
• Protect expiration
• Cover of protect expiration
• Underlying record date expiration.

RCNV:

Introduction
Overview

The Reorg Conversion Online Instruction (RCNV) function allows you to enter conversion
instructions via PTS. Once it receives your conversion instructions, DTC deducts the convertible
securities from your account and adds the underlying securities to it, usually on the same day. The
underlying securities are immediately eligible for all of DTC's services, including book-entry delivery
and pledges for collateral loans.

When to Use

Use RCNV to enter, update, or cancel instructions to DTC regarding conversion rights.

For example, if DTC has notified you of an impending expiration of a conversion privilege, you can
use RCNV to instruct DTC to deduct the convertible securities from your general free account and
add the underlying securities to it.

RCNV is available from 8:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. eastern time for submitting and cancelling
conversion instructions.

Note- If you need to submit an instruction, and PTS or the RCNV function is unavailable, see
Submitting a Hard Copy Conversion Instruction.

If you need to submit an instruction, and PTS or the RCNV function is unavailable, Refer to
Submitting a Hard Copy Conversion Instruction.

Associated Products

RCNV is used in association with the Custody Reorganization product.

RCNV is also used in association with the Conversions Conversions product.

List of Procedures:
Cancellation Criteria
To cancel a Conversion Instruction:

• You must receive the original Conversion Instruction ticket before submitting the
cancellation instructions.
• You must enter the exact data as in the original instruction.
• You must enter the exact Serial Number that was assigned to the original instruction. You
can make a note of this number when you enter the original instruction, or you can get the
number from the Conversion Instruction ticket.
• The original instruction cannot be recycled.
• There must be sufficient position in the underlying account.
Note- You can only cancel one underlying security. If you need to cancel more, contact DTC's
Reorganization Conversion Supervisor at (212) 855-5260 or contact DTC's Customer Support Center
at (888) 382-2721.

Warning! You must have the original Conversion Instruction ticket to validate that the instruction
was processed. If you do not have this ticket by 11:30 a.m. eastern time, you must notify DTC's
Reorganization Conversion Supervisor. DTC will not assume responsibility for claims made against
missing tickets.

Introduction
Overview

The Redemptions Foreign Currency (RCUR) function allows you to receive maturity or redemption
payments in foreign currency for certain DTC-eligible foreign currency denominated issues.

The following process occurs for you to receive maturity or redemption proceeds in foreign currency
on all or part of your position:

1. You submit an instruction via RCUR during the election period.


2. DTC forwards these instructions to the Paying Agent.
3. The Paying Agent pays the foreign currency proceeds directly to you or your customer.

Note- If you want to receive maturity or redemption proceeds on your entire position in U. S.
dollars, take no action; DTC will pay you the U. S. dollar proceeds on the payable date. For Money
Market Instruments (MMIs), DTC initiates Maturity Presentment Deliveries Versus Payment
transactions from your account to the Paying Agent's account.

Redemption Foreign Currency instructions are eligible for the Release Reorganization Transactions
Over PTS (RTOP) function. If you are an RTOP Participant, you must enter instructions via RCUR and
release them via RTOP. Instructions will not be processed until they are released via RTOP.

When to Use

For RTOPParticipants, RCUR is available:

• On business days from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. eastern time (Cutoff: RFRTOP).
• On the last day of an election period (Election End Date) from 8:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.
(noon) eastern time for a particular CUSIP (Cutoff: RFVOI).

For non- RTOP Participants, RCUR is available for instructions processing on business days from
7:00 a.m. until 6:00 p.m. eastern time (Cutoff: RFVOI).

Note- Although you can enter instructions via RCUR after 12:00 p.m. (noon) on any day prior to the
last day of the election period, you cannot release them through RTOP until the next day, since
RTOP cuts off for release of Redemption Foreign Currency instructions at 12:00 p.m. (noon) eastern
time.

REOG:

Introduction
Overview

The Reorg Selection Menu (REOG) function groups together various PTS functions that are
frequently used for processing Reorganization transactions, and provides you with a central
selection menu for those functions. REOG allows you to:

• Access and navigate among Reorganization functions via a Reorg Selection Menu and Menu
Bar facility
• Retain the CUSIP number of a security you are working with while moving from one
Reorganization function to another
• View online help for Reorganization functions.

Note- You can still access the individual Reorganization functions by entering their acronyms on the
Enter Function screen; the navigation between functions is still available. REOG was designed as an
alternative method for accessing Reorganization -related functions, allowing you to navigate
between functions without returning to the Enter Function screen, and carry over security
information without reentering the CUSIP in each function.

When to Use

The Reorg Selection Menu (REOG) function groups together various functions used by
Reorganization operations personnel. Use REOG to access Reorganization functions without the need
to remember individual function acronyms, and perform various tasks involving a single security
when those tasks would normally require you to enter and exit several functions.

REOG is available 24 hours a day, including weekends.

List of Procedures:
Carrying Data Between Functions
If you enter a CUSIP on the Reorg Selection Menu, information for the specified security will be
carried over between the functions you access via REOG. For example, if you enter a CUSIP, then
select the RIPS function from the Reorg Selection Menu, the CUSIP field on the Reorg Inquiry For
Participants screen in RIPS is automatically filled with the specified CUSIP, and you can inquire
about that security.

If you do not specify a CUSIP on the Reorg Selection Menu, but subsequently enter or select a
CUSIP within the function you access via REOG, that CUSIP will be carried over from function to
function. If you return to the Reorg Selection Menu, the CUSIP field will now contain the CUSIP you
selected or specified from within the other function.

For example, if you access the CERR function via the Reorg Selection Menu, then select an item on
one of the display screens, the selected CUSIP will carry over when you return to the Reorg
Selection Menu or when you access another Reorganization function, either via the Menu Bar or the
O (Other Functions) command.

Using REOG
Use the following procedure to access Reorganization -related PTS functions via REOG.

1 Type REOG on the Enter Function screen and press ENTER.

Result- The Reorg Selection Menu appears.


2 Optional. To view a help screen for REOG, click below the word Help on the Menu Bar and press
ENTER.

Result- A help screen with a brief overview of REOG appears.

Note- If you do not use a mouse, press HOME, then TAB to the word Help on the Menu Bar and
press ENTER.

Also, to view help for a different Reorganization function, type the desired function acronym in
the Topic field and press ENTER.
3 Type the number that corresponds to the Reorganization function you want to access in the
Enter Option field.

Note- If you are not signed up for a listed function, that line on the Reorg Selection Menu appears
in low intensity and the message'Ineligible' appears to the right of the function name. If you
select that function, the message'You do not have the necessary PTS eligibility to access the
selected function' appears on the top of the screen.

If you are a group user and are not allowed access for the participant data for a listed function,
that line appears in low intensity and the message'Not authorized' appears to the right of the
function name. If you select that function, the message'Group user not authorized for displayed
participant &selected function combo' appears on the top of the screen.
4 Optional. Type the CUSIP number of the security for which you want to perform Reorganization -
related activities in the CUSIP field.
5 Optional, group users only, type the desired participant number in the Participant field.
6 Press ENTER.

Result- The menu or first screen of the selected function appears. For information about using the
selected function, see the chapter in this guide that discusses that function.

List of Screens:
Function Help Screen
For each function available via REOG, you can display a help screen by placing your cursor beneath
the word Help on the Menu Bar at the top of the screen and pressing ENTER. If you do not have a
mouse, press HOME, then TAB until your cursor is properly positioned.

Note- This help facility provides a brief overview of the function you are currently accessing via
REOG. It does not provide help for a specific screen within a function. For detailed information about
a specific screen, see the chapter in this guide that discusses the selected function. Also, if you
access Help on the Menu Bar while already displaying the Function Help screen, a brief help screen
for this help facility appears.

The Reorg Inquiry for Participants (RIPS) function allows you to view information regarding the
processing of securities undergoing redemption, maturity, or reorganization activity, including:

• Mergers (cash and/or stock)


• Tender offers
• Exchanges offers
• Expiring Conversions
• Expiring Warrant exercises
• Put option exercises
• Maturities
• Redemptions
• Other types of reorganization activities.

The RIPS function gives you access to specific information about a reorganization, maturity or
redemption activity occurring on a particular issue. You can also use the RIPS function to identify:

• Those reorganization or redemption activities with "significant events" (for example, an


expiration of a tender offer), occurring on a specified date
• Newly announced reorganization, maturity or redemption activities
• Updated information for reorganization, maturity or redemption activities
• Activities for those securities in which you have position.

Warning! The information provided by means of the RIPS function is based on communications
(whether oral or written) received by DTC from a variety of sources, and DTC does not represent
that such information is accurate or adequate, or fit for any particular purpose. DTC shall not be
liable for (1) any loss resulting directly or indirectly from mistakes, omissions, interruptions, delays,
errors or defects arising from or related to the information provided on the RIPS function, and (2)
any special, consequential, exemplary, incidental, or punitive damages. The information provided in
RIPS with respect to a particular reorganization activity is subject to change at any time without
prior notice.

About the RIPS Expiration Inquiry Feature

The RIPS Expiration Inquiry feature provides you with:

• Important data such as information about underlying security record dates and expiring
activities where the target security is also the subject, or proceeds of another
reorganization activity
• A list of ongoing conversion and warrant exercises where today and tomorrow are the last
days to convert or subscribe through DTC and receive position as of the record date for a
distribution of cash, securities or voting rights on the underlying security.

You can perform these inquiries based on the envelopes due to expire today or the next business
day by Reorganization Activity code.

About the Reorganization Inquiry Feature


The RIPS Reorganization Inquiry feature allows you to perform inquiries about issues undergoing a
reorganization activity. You can view:

• Issues with significant events by entering a "key date"


• Newly announced activities
• Updated announcements
• Issues undergoing a reorganization for which you have position.

About the Broadcast Message Facility

DTC uses the RIPS function to broadcast urgent messages to all Participants. These messages
appear prior to the RIPS Main Menu and usually inform you of the late notification of an expiring
reorg activity. Urgent or important news regarding DTC's Reorganization and Redemptions services
are communicated to you via the Broadcast Message facility. You must read the message and take
appropriate action before proceeding to the RIPS Main Menu.

When to Use
