Newedge Net Capital Requirements

Newedge is subject to the SEC's Uniform Net Capital Rule (Rule 15c3-1). The Company has elected to use the alternative method permitted by the rule, which requires that the Company maintain minimum "net capital" equal to the greater of $250,000 or two percent of "aggregate debit items," as these terms are defined. The Company is also subject to the Commodity Futures Trading Commission Net Capital Requirements (Regulation 1.17) and is required to maintain "adjusted net capital," as defined, equal to the greater of $250,000, or the sum of eight and four percent of the total risk margin requirements for all positions carried by the Company in customer and non-customer accounts, respectively. Net capital, aggregate debit items, and maintenance margin levels change from day to day, but at June 30, 2006, the Company had net capital and net capital requirements of approximately $28,828,525 and $1,360,515, respectively. The net capital rule may effectively restrict the payment of cash dividends.
