Explanatory Note

This Amendment No. 1 (this “Amendment 1”) amends and supplements the Schedule 13D originally filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission on July 26, 2010 and is being filed by BM&FBOVESPA S.A. — Bolsa de Valores, Mercadorias e Futuros (the “Reporting Person” or “BVMF”). This Amendment 1 relates to the Class A Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Class A Common Stock”), of CME Group Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”).

Item 2. Identity and Background

Item 2 is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

(a) - (c) This Statement is being filed by BVMF pursuant to Rule 13d-1 under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

BVMF, a Brazilian sociedade por ações (i.e., corporation), is a publicly held securities, commodities and futures exchange. BVMF’s principal place of business and principal office is located at Praça Antonio Prado, 48 — Centro, São Paulo, SP, Brazil 01010-901.

To the best of BVMF’s knowledge as of the date hereof, set forth in Schedule I to this Schedule 13D and incorporated herein by reference is the following information with respect to each director and executive officer of BVMF:

 

  (1) name;

 

  (2) business address; and

 

  (3) present principal occupation or employment and the name, principal business and address of any corporation or other organization in which such employment is conducted.

(d) During the last five years, BVMF has not, and to the best of its knowledge, none of the persons listed on Schedule I hereto has been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors).

(e) During the last five years, BVMF has not, and to the best of its knowledge, none of the persons listed on Schedule I hereto has been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws, with the following exceptions in relation to Mr. André Santos Esteves:

(i) Consob Proceeding 18165: Investigation within the civil sphere by the Commissione Nazionale per le Societá e La Borsa – CONSOB, in Europe, regarding improper secondary use of inside information when trading securities of Cremonini S.p.A, which at the time was in negotiations about a partnership with JBS S.A., by Mr. Esteves in November 2007. CONSOB ruled, at the lower level, for a fine of €350,000.00, suspension from all activities as an administrator of companies regulated by the CONSOB and the freezing of the profit supposedly obtained from the trade. Given its administrative nature, the decision carries no consequences in the criminal sphere. Although he continues to believe that the allegations of CONSOB are groundless, Mr. Esteves decided to refrain from appealing, since he was of the opinion that such an appeal would delay even further the conclusion of the proceeding. It should also be clarified that his decision not to pursue this in no way represents a confession or acknowledgement of any of the alleged facts; and

(ii) Administrative Proceeding Pt.0601357636 filed by the Central Bank of Brazil for the purpose of alleged losses arising from day-trade transactions on the futures markets for U.S. Dollar futures, exchange rate coupon FRAs –DDI and 1-day DI interest rate futures on the BM&F, in the period from October 2002 to February 2004, supposedly carried out to benefit a non-resident investor. A decision was issued on April 19, 2013, stipulating a monetary fine of one hundred thousand Reais (R$100,000.00), which was paid in full and the case closed.


(f) Each natural person identified in Schedule I hereto is a citizen of Brazil, except for Mr. Charles P. Carey, who is a citizen of the United States of America.

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

Item 3 is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following:

On May 24, 2012, the Issuer announced that its Board of Directors had declared a five-for-one stock split of its Class A Common Stock, to be effected through a stock dividend. On July 20, 2012, the Issuer distributed a 400% stock dividend to shareholders of record on July 10, 2012. As a result, immediately following the dividend, BVMF held 16,977,720 shares of Class A Common Stock.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction

Item 4 is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following:

On September 14, 2015, BVMF sold 3,395,544 shares of Class A Common Stock in an the over-the-counter market at a price per share of $92.09. As a result of such transaction, BVMF has reduced its percentage ownership in the Issuer below 5% of its Class A Common Stock and will no longer file Schedule 13Ds with respect to the Issuer.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer

Item 5 is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

(a) The responses of the Reporting Person with respect to Rows 11, 12 and 13 of the cover page of this Schedule 13D that relate to the aggregate number and percentage of Class A Common Stock beneficially owned are incorporated herein by reference. Mr. Charles P. Carey, a Director of the Issuer and of BVMF, beneficially owns 29,327.15 shares of Class A Common Stock. The shares beneficially owned by Mr. Carey represent 0.01% of the total outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock. With respect to all other persons referenced in Item 2 above, no such person beneficially owns shares of Class A Common Stock.

The calculation of the foregoing percentages is based on 337,756,060 shares outstanding as of July 15, 2015, as reported on the Issuer’s Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2015.

(b) The responses of the Reporting Person with respect to Rows 7, 8, 9 and 10 of the cover pages of this Schedule 13D that relate to the number of shares which BVMF has sole power to vote or to direct the vote, shared power to vote or to direct the vote and sole or shared power to dispose or to direct the disposition are incorporated herein by reference. To the best of BVMF’s knowledge, Mr. Carey has the sole power to vote or to direct the vote and to dispose of all of the shares of Class A Common Stock beneficially owned by him.

(c) Except for the transactions described in this Schedule 13D, during the past 60 days there have been no other transactions in the securities of the Issuer effected by BVMF or, to the best of BVMF’s knowledge, the persons or entities referenced in Item 2 above.

(d) Not applicable.

(e) BVMF ceased to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of the Issuer’s Class A Common Stock on September14, 2015.
