        2. Resubmit in FIRDS the phase 4 emission allowance with the ISIN for phase 4 (i.e. EU000A2QMW50 or EU000A2QMW68) displayed by the European Commission.            
      3. Trading venues and SIs that previously submitted futures on phase 4 emission allowances with a different underlying ISIN (i.e. not the EU ISIN for phase 4) as underlying should:
        1. Terminate the future in FIRDS, and
        2. Resubmit in FIRDS the future on phase 4 emission allowance with the ISIN of the phase 4 emission allowances as underlying (i.e. EU000A2QMW50 or EU000A2QMW68) displayed by the European Commission.
