9 15 U.S.C. 78(f)(b)(5). 

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

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

12 17 CFR 240.19b–4(f)(2). 

13For purposes of calculating the 60-day period 

within which the Commission may summarily 

abrogate the proposed rule change the Commission 

considers the period to commence on December 20, 

2006, the date on which the Exchange filed 

Amendment No. 1. See 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(C). 14 17 CFR 200.30–3(a)(12). 

pursuant to Exchange Rule 960.9 and 

By-Law Article XI, Section 11–3, and an 

appeal from a decision of the 

Nominating, Elections and Governance 

Committee, pursuant to By-Law Article 

XI, Section 11–1, will not be subject to 

the Appeal Fee. The Appeal Fee, which 

will be paid by appellant at the time of 

filing an appeal, will be refunded to the 

appellant in the event the Board of 

Governors overturns the decision of the 

Standing Committee. 

2. Statutory Basis 

The Exchange believes that its 

proposal to amend its schedule of fees 

is consistent with Section 6(b) of the 

Act 8 in general, and furthers the 

objectives of Section 6(b)(5) 9 in 

particular in that it is designed to 

prevent fraudulent and manipulative 

acts and practices, to promote just and 

equitable principals of trade, to foster 

cooperation and coordination with 

persons engaged in facilitating 

transactions in securities, and to remove 

the impediments to and perfect the 

mechanism of a free and open market 

and a national market system. Finally, 

the proposed rule change furthers the 

objectives of Section 6(b)(4) of the Act 10

in particular, in that it is an equitable 

allocation of reasonable fees and other 

charges among Exchange members. 

B. Self-Regulatory Organization’s 

Statement on Burden on Competition 

The Phlx does not believe that the 

proposed rule change will impose any 

burden on competition not necessary or 

appropriate in furtherance of the 

purposes of the Act. 

C. Self-Regulatory Organization’s 

Statement on Comments on the 

Proposed Rule Change Received From 

Members, Participants, or Others 

No written comments were either 

solicited or received. 

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 

subparagraph (f)(2) of Rule 19b–4 

thereunder 12 because it establishes or 

changes a due, fee, or other charge. At 

any time within 60 days of the filing of 

the proposed rule change, the 

Commission may summarily abrogate 

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.13

IV. Solicitation of Comments

submit written data, views, and

including whether the proposed rule 

change, as amended, is consistent with
