Dutch best execution and trading venue TOM to offer trading in cash equities
and derivatives operated by NASDAQ OMX 

Stockholm, June 23, 2009 - The NASDAQ OMX Group, Inc. (NASDAQ:NDAQ) today       
announces that it will provide trading and clearing operations to a new Dutch   
equities search engine TOM (The Order Machine). TOM yesterday received an AMF   
(Dutch FSA) license to start up a best execution service for equities, giving   
private investors access to professional markets and execution prices. Later    
this year, TOM aims to launch a best execution service for derivatives in       
addition to shares.                                                             

Henk Wim van Arem with TOM's management said, “We are excited to be able to     
offer a unique best execution service using NASDAQ OMX technology and operation 
services. One of the key deciding factors for selecting NASDAQ OMX is the       
possibility to transition to their Next Generation Genium platform, which will  
give us unique speed and capacity advantages on both cash and derivatives       
trading.”                                                                       

Henrik Paulsson, Head of European Derivatives at NASDAQ OMX said, “TOM's offer  
is perfectly aligned with what European investors are looking for today, and we 
look forward to working with them to ensure efficient market operations. The    
proven Nordic trading and clearing platform used by TOM will appeal to liquidity
providers and ultimately help end-investors find best-execution prices.”        

About TOM                                                                       
TOM, The Order Machine, combines the best possible execution of stock exchange  
orders with an advantageous and transparent in-house trading platform. For      
clients of connected banks, TOM seeks out the best price at which an order can  
be executed on a variety of trading platforms. As a result of this, TOM is      
promoting the competition required by MiFID between stock exchanges and         
alternative trading platforms. Ultimately, the intended result is better prices 
for private end-investors. TOM is a 50/50 joint venture between BinckBank and   
Optiver. TOM has the ambition to expand to become a Multilateral Trading        
Facility (MTF).
