3. 
   Exercise
   The use of the right to purchase the underlying instrument by the holder of a call, or to sell the underlying instrument by the holder of a put. Upon exercise of an option on a futures contract, an option seller will be assigned (at the exercise price) a futures position opposite to the position acquired by the option buyer. Upon exercise of an option on equity shares, an option seller will be required to deliver shares at the exercise price (in the case of a call option) or purchase shares at the exercise price (in the case of a put option). Exercise of an option on an equity-index contract, either a call or a put, results in a cash settlement based on the difference between the exercise price and the index at the time of exercise.
