That is correct and you get cash, the intrinsic 
value of the option. Usually only deep in the money options are exercised 
early.  They settle at cash value of the index so you would lose the time 
premium in the option if you exercised an option that had time premium.

  The oex is an American style 
    option.It can be exercised any time prior to 
  expiration.So, in theory, if I wanted to exercise a 
  put option, I would write (?) to the CBOE and they would have to sell one 
  contract to me at the strike price?Thanks,KateTo
