Explanation of Responses:

1. Pursuant to an underwriting agreement, dated March 8, 2005 (the "Underwriting Agreement"), and in connection with the initial public offering of shares of International Securities Exchange, Inc. (the "Company") Class A Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Common Stock"), by the Company and certain selling stockholders (the "Selling Stockholders", which include The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. ("GS Group")), pursuant to a registration statement (Registration No. 333-117145) (the "Registration Statement"),which was consummated on March 14, 2005, GS Group sold 869,564 shares of Common Stock.

2. In addition, on March 14, 2005 the sale of shares of the Company's Common Stock by the Company and Selling Stockholders to the Underwriters (as defined in the Underwriting Agreement) pursuant to the exercise by the Underwriters of an option to purchase an additional amount of shares of the Company's Common Stock from the Company and Selling Stockholders was consummated and in connection with such sale GS Group sold 130,435 shares of the Company's Common Stock to the Underwriters. Goldman, Sachs & Co. ("Goldman Sachs") was one of the several Underwriters under the Underwriting Agreement. Goldman Sachs is a direct and indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of GS Group. As of March 14, 2005, GS Group ceased to beneficially own more than 10% of Common Stock reported to be outstanding in the Company's Registration Statement, and is therefore no longer subject to Section 16.

3. Represents net price of $16.74 per share plus $1.26 per share for underwriting discount and commission.
