Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

Information set forth in this document contains forward-looking statements, which involve a number of risks and uncertainties.  NYSE
Group, Inc. (“NYSE Group”) cautions readers that any forward-looking information is not a guarantee of future performance and that
actual results could differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking information.  Such forward-looking statements include,
but are not limited to, statements about the benefits of the business combination transaction involving NYSE Group and Euronext,
including future financial and operating results, the new company’s plans, objectives, expectations and intentions and other statements
that are not historical facts. Additional risks and factors are identified in NYSE Group’s filings with the U.S. Securities Exchange
Commission (the “SEC”), including its Annual Report on Form 10-k for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2005 which is available on
NYSE Group’s website at http://www.nyse.com and the SEC’s website at SEC's Web site at www.sec.gov. The parties undertake no
obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Cautionary Note Regarding Projections

Although the projections that appear in this document were prepared in good faith by management of NYSE Group and Euronext, no
assurance can be made regarding future events. The estimates and assumptions underlying the projections involve judgments with
respect to, among other things, future economic, competitive, regulatory and financial market conditions and future business decisions
that may not be realized and are inherently subject to significant business, economic, competitive and regulatory uncertainties, all of
which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond the control of NYSE Group and Euronext. Accordingly, there can be no
assurance that the projected results would be realized or that actual results would not differ materially from those presented in the
financial data. Such projections cannot, therefore, be considered a reliable predictor of future operating results, and this information
should not be relied on as such. The projections were not prepared with a view toward complying with the guidelines established by the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants with respect to prospective financial data, published guidelines of the SEC regarding
forward-looking statements, or U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. In the view of NYSE Group management and Euronext
management, the information was prepared on a reasonable basis. However, this information is not fact and should not be relied upon as
being necessarily indicative of future results, and readers of this document are cautioned not to place undue reliance on this information.

Neither NYSE Group nor Euronext intends to update or otherwise revise the prospective financial data to reflect circumstances existing
since its preparation or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events, even in the event that any or all of the underlying assumptions
are shown to be in error. Furthermore, neither NYSE Group nor Euronext intends to update or revise the prospective financial data to
reflect changes in general economic or industry conditions.
