TOPIX Futures Daily Settlement Procedure

...

Tier 3:   If a two-sided market is not available on Globex during the closing period, then the cash index will be used in the following Carry calculation to derive a settlement price. 

Index price + [(Days to expiration/ 365) x Interest rate x Index price)] 

Second Month

When the lead month is the expiry month, then the second month is defined as the calendar month immediately following the lead month. When the lead month is not the expiry month, then the second month is defined as the first expiring non-lead month.

...

Tier 2:   If there are no spread trades on Globex between 14:59:30 and 15:00:00 CT, then the last spread trade price is applied to the lead month settle to derive the second month settle.
If the last spread trade is outside of the spread’s Bid/ Ask, then the bid or ask price that is closer to the last spread trade is applied to the lead month settle to derive the second month settle. 

Tier 3:   If there is no spread market information available on Globex, then the cash index will be used in the following Carry calculation to derive a settlement price price 

Index price + [(Days to expiration/ 365) x Interest rate x Index price)] 

 Back Months

To derive settlements for all remaining months, the following Carry calculation will be used to derive a settlement prices provided that this value does not violate the bid or ask between 14:59:30 and 15:00:00 CT for the respective outrights.

Index price + [(Days to expiration/ 365) x Interest rate x Index price)] 

Note

The Index Price used in the Carry calculation in this methodology, for futures that settle at a different time than their underlying Cash Equity Index, will be a ‘Synthetic’ Index price.  This ‘Synthetic’ price will be derived by taking the Lead month futures contract minus the Cash Index at the cash close to calculate a Basis.  At the futures settlement time, the Lead Month settlement minus the Basis will equal the ‘Synthetic’ Index price.  The Interest Rate component used in the Carry calculation in this methodology is derived by subtracting expected dividends from a normalized interest rate curve.
