                       Chicago Mercantile Exchange Inc.
                    Notes to Condensed Financial Statements


1.  Basis of Presentation

     The accompanying interim financial statements have been prepared by Chicago
     Mercantile Exchange Inc. ("New CME"), without audit.  Certain notes and
     other information normally included in financial statements prepared in
     accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been
     condensed or omitted.  In the opinion of management, the accompanying
     consolidated financial statements include all adjustments necessary to
     present fairly the financial position of New CME as of June 30, 2000 and
     December 31, 1999, and the results of its operations and cash flows for the
     periods indicated.  The accompanying financial statements should be read in
     connection with the financial statements and notes thereto of the Chicago
     Mercantile Exchange included in New CME's proxy statement and prospectus
     dated April 25, 2000.

2.  Organization

     Chicago Mercantile Exchange Inc. was incorporated in the state of Delaware
     on December 30, 1999.  Its initial capitalization consisted of 100 shares
     of Common Stock, $.01 par value, issued to CME Transitory Co., a Delaware
     nonstock corporation whose sole member is the Chicago Mercantile Exchange
     ("Existing CME"), an Illinois not-for-profit corporation.

     New CME and CME Transitory Co. were formed by Existing CME for the purpose
     of effecting the demutualization transaction described in Note 3.  It has
     no present business operations other than activities associated with
     preparing for the demutualization transaction.  All costs of the
     demutualization will be borne by Existing CME.

3.  Pending Transaction

     On October 27, 1999, the board of directors of Existing CME approved a plan
     to demutualize wherein the existing Illinois membership corporation will be
     converted into a Delaware stock corporation.  Under this plan, membership
     interests in Existing CME will be converted into shares of Class B common
     stock, and in the cases of the CME, IMM and IOM membership interests,
     shares of Class A common stock of New CME.  Class B shares will be issued
     in several series, each of which will contain the traditional features of
     common stock and will confer the trading privileges associated with the
     membership interest that is converted into those shares.  Class A shares
     will have the features of traditional common stock.

     On June 6, 2000, the members of Existing CME approved an agreement and plan
     of merger under which the demutualization will be accomplished.  The merger
     is conditioned on a confirmation from the Internal Revenue Service that the
     demutualization transaction will not cause members to recognize a gain or
     loss upon the conversion of their membership interests into Class A and
     Class B shares.  A ruling request was filed on December 30, 1999, and a
     response had not been received as of August 1, 2000.   Upon receipt of a
     favorable ruling, it is expected that the  demutualization will be
     completed and that membership interests in Existing CME will be converted
     into shares of New CME as previously described.


                                     Page 6
<PAGE>

     The demutualization transaction will be treated for accounting purposes in
     a manner similar to "pooling-of-interests" accounting.  Under this method
     of accounting, no gain or loss will be recognized, and the assets and
     liabilities of Existing CME will appear on the books of New CME at their
     same recorded amounts.

     For additional information regarding the demutualization, see the proxy
     statement/prospectus of New CME contained in its registration statement
     (File No. 333-95561) that was declared effective on April 25, 2000.



Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
         Results of Operations

As discussed in the Notes to Condensed Financial Statements above, New CME was
formed for the purpose of effecting the demutualization of the Chicago
Mercantile Exchange, an Illinois not-for-profit corporation.  That transaction
has not yet been completed and will not be completed until a favorable ruling is
received from the Internal Revenue Service regarding the tax consequences of the
transaction.  New CME has no business operations of its own and is not expected
to have any business operations until the completion of the demutualization.


Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

The Company has not commenced operations and has not entered into any contracts
or commitments that would expose it to market risk.
