10 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(4) and (5). 

11 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A)(ii). 

12 17 CFR 240.19b–4(f)(2). 13 17 CFR 200.30–3(a)(12). 

because the opportunity to qualify for 

Liquidity Provision Tiers is open to all 

members on an equal basis. Upon the 

expiration of Liquidity Provision Tier 4 

Criteria (2) for activity on the Exchange 

after October 31, 2023, no Member will 

be able to qualify for Liquidity Provision 

Tier 4 based on Criteria (2). Similarly, 

upon the expiration of Liquidity 

Provision Tier 6 for activity on the 

Exchange after November 30, 2023, no 

Member will be able to qualify for 

Liquidity Provision Tier 6. 

For the reasons discussed above, the 

Exchange submits that the proposal 

satisfies the requirements of Sections 

6(b)(4) and 6(b)(5) of the Act 10 in that 

it provides for the equitable allocation 

of reasonable dues, fees and other 

charges among its Members and other 

persons using its facilities and is not 

designed to unfairly discriminate 

between customers, issuers, brokers, or 

dealers. 

B. Self-Regulatory Organization’s 

Statement on Burden on Competition 

The Exchange does not believe that 

the proposal will result in any burden 

on competition that is not necessary or 

appropriate in furtherance of the 

purposes of the Act. Rather, as 

described above, the proposed change is 

intended to provide clear and easy-tounderstand language in its Fee Schedule 

related to the expiring Tiers, as 

described above. The Exchange believes 

that providing clarifying language 

enables Members to make better 

decisions about where to route their 

orders and would enable the Exchange 

to better compete with other exchanges 

that offer similar pricing structures and 

incentives to market participants. 

The Exchange does not believe the 

proposal would impose any burden on 

intermarket competition that is not 

necessary or appropriate in furtherance 

of the purposes of the Act, as the 

Exchange believes the proposal is not 

concerned with competitive issues, but 

rather relates to clarifying the 

applicability of certain expiring Tiers, as 

described above. Additionally, the 

Exchange believes the proposal would 

not impose any burden on intramarket 

competition that is not necessary or 

appropriate in furtherance of the 

purposes of the Act because, as 

described above, the proposed changes 

will apply to all Members uniformly 

and in the same manner. 

C. Self-Regulatory Organization’s 

Statement on Comments on the 

Proposed Rule Change Received From 

Members, Participants, or Others 

The Exchange neither solicited nor 

received comments on the proposed 

rule change. 

III. Date of Effectiveness of the 

Proposed Rule Change and Timing for 

Commission Action 

The foregoing rule change has become 

effective pursuant to Section 

19(b)(3)(A)(ii) of the Act 11 and Rule 

19b–4(f)(2) 12 thereunder. 

At any time within 60 days of the 

filing of the proposed rule change, the 

Commission summarily may 

temporarily suspend such rule change if 

it appears to the Commission that such 

action is necessary or appropriate in the 

public interest, for the protection of 

investors, or otherwise in furtherance of 

the purposes of the Act. If the 

Commission takes such action, the 

Commission shall institute proceedings 

to determine whether the proposed rule 

change should be approved or 

disapproved. 

IV. Solicitation of Comments 

Interested persons are invited to 

submit written data, views and 

arguments concerning the foregoing, 

including whether the proposed rule 

change is consistent with the Act.
