Forward-Looking Statements Certain statements in this Form 8-K may contain forward-looking
information regarding IntercontinentalExchange, Inc., the New York Board of Trade, and the combined
company after the completion of the merger that are intended to be covered by the safe harbor for
forward-looking statements provided by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
These statements include, but are not limited to, the benefits of the merger transaction involving
ICE and NYBOT, including future strategic and financial benefits, the plans, objective,
expectations and intentions of ICE following the completion of the merger, and other statements
that are not historical facts. Such statements are based upon the current beliefs and expectations
of ICEs management and are subject to significant risks and uncertainties. Actual results may
differ from those set forth in the forward-looking statements.
The following factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ from those as set forth
in the forward-looking statements: the ability to obtain governmental approvals and rulings on or
regarding the transaction on the proposed terms and schedule; the failure of NYBOT members to
approve the merger; the risk that the businesses will not be integrated successfully; the risk that
the revenue opportunities, cost savings and other anticipated synergies from the merger may not be
fully realized or may take longer to realize than expected; disruption from the merger making it
difficult to maintain relationships with customers, employees or suppliers; competition and its
effect on pricing, spending and third-party relationships and revenues; social and political
conditions such as war, political unrest or terrorism; general economic conditions and normal
business uncertainty. Additional risks and factors are identified in ICEs filings with the
Securities and Exchange Commission, including ICEs Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter
ended June 30, 2006 and ICEs Registration Statement on Form S-4 (Reg. No. 333-138312) as filed on
October 31, 2006.
You should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date
of this press release. Except for any obligations to disclosure material information under the
Federal securities laws, ICE undertakes no obligation to release publicly any revisions to any
forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this press release.
Important Merger Information

connection with the proposed merger, ICE has filed a Registration
Statement on Form S-4 and intends to file additional relevant
materials with the SEC in the future. INVESTORS ARE URGED TO READ THE PROSPECTUS/PROXY STATEMENT REGARDING THE TRANSACTION WHEN IT
BECOMES AVAILABLE BECAUSE IT WILL CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION. Investors will be able to obtain

NYBOT without charge, at the SECs website (http: // www.sec.gov) once such documents are filed
with the SEC. Copies of the prospectus/proxy statement will also be available, without charge, once they are filed
