Article 1 The Detailed Rules are developed according to the relevant national laws and regulations as well as Regulations on Continuous Spot Trading of Far East Material Trading Center Co., Ltd., in order to provide better services for traders, reflect features of physical delivery, and ensure normal operation of physical delivery undertaken by Far East Material Trading Center Co., Ltd.
Article 2 The payment method of physical delivery undertaken by Far East Material Trading Center Co., Ltd. includes cash payment and combination of cash and bank acceptance. Specifically, the cash payment applies to copper, aluminum and rubber, while the combination method applies to trading varieties other than copper, aluminum and rubber (hereinafter referred to as “other variety”), including cable reel, steel strand, steel belt, PVC sheathing materials, cable shielding materials, crosslinking materials, LDPE sheathing materials, MDPE sheathing materials, flame retardant sheathing materials, and PVC resin powder.
Article 3 Issuance, endorsement transfer, writing, and stamping of the bank acceptance shall meet the relevant requirements of Law of the People's Republic of China on Negotiable Instruments.
Article 4 The trading center implements the system of physical delivery declaration for each trading day. The trader who declares delivery must be a business entity who has registered at a relevant industrial and commercial administrative department, has relevant business qualification for the declared delivery commodity, and takes part in the relevant production, operation and consumption.
Article 5 The declaration time of physical commodity is 16:00-16:45 on each trading day. The trading variety including copper, aluminum and copper will be delivered every day, while the delivery declaration of the other trading varieties will be completed within thirty trading days after the transaction.
Article 6 According to the delivery declaration for the listed trading variety made by the buyer’s trader and the seller’s trader (hereinafter referred to as “the buyer” and “the seller”), the electronic trade system of the trading center will automatically match the commodities based on the principles of “equal distribution” and “maximization of daily delivery”. If a trader’s declared delivery is successfully matched but it fails to fulfill its obligations or fulfill only part of its obligations, it shall assume corresponding responsibilities for breaching the contract.
Article 7 After the delivery declaration is finished, the trading center will use its electronic trade system to send the notice of physical delivery to the trading terminal of corresponding trader for the successful delivery declaration; if the delivery matching of delivery declaration fails, the corresponding trader will obtain the compensatory payment for delayed delivery in accordance with the relevant provisions of the trading center.
Article 8 According to the relevant provisions of the trading center, the buyer and the seller with successful matched delivery declarations can pay 20% of transaction price in the cash payment method as the delivery deposit or transfer their transactional performance bonds as the delivery deposit.
Article 9 The seller shall transport the goods in conformity with quantity and other requirements to the delivery warehouse specified by the trading center and handle relevant store-in procedures before 17:00 in the first working day after delivery.

The amount of the bank acceptance corresponding to each delivery matching shall not be more than 80% of the total delivery amount, and the rest payment can be made by the buyer in cash via its special settlement account in the trading center.
Article 11 If the term to maturity of bank acceptance delivered by the buyer is less than 6 months or if the buyer pays the residual payment in cash, the discount on payment for goods will be calculated as per the coterminous benchmark interest rate of bank loan, and it will be deducted from the delivery payment in cash.
The discount formulas of the payment for goods are as follows:
1. Discount on payment for goods in case of term to maturity of bank acceptance less than 6 months = (180 - term to maturity of delivered acceptance bill) * coterminous benchmark interest rate of bank loan/360 * amount of acceptance bill
2. Discount on payment for goods in case of residual payment made in cash = 180 * coterminous benchmark interest rate of bank loan/360 * cash amount
