24 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A). 

25 17 CFR 240.19b–4(f)(2). 26 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(2)(B). 27 17 CFR 200.30–3(a)(12). 

changes, taken together with existing 

discounts, will continue to encourage 

trading activity on the Exchange. 

In terms of inter-market competition, 

the Exchange notes that it operates in a 

highly competitive market in which 

market participants can readily favor 

competing venues if they deem fee 

levels at a particular venue to be 

excessive, or rebate opportunities 

available at other venues to be more 

favorable. In such an environment, the 

Exchange must continually adjust its 

fees to remain competitive with other 

exchanges. Because competitors are free 

to modify their own fees in response, 

and because market participants may 

readily adjust their order routing 

practices, the Exchange believes that the 

degree to which fee changes in this 

market may impose any burden on 

competition is extremely limited. As 

noted herein, the proposed fee change is 

competitive as it is within the range of 

fees charged by competing option 

exchanges.23 If the changes proposed 

herein are unattractive to market 

participants, it is likely that the 

Exchange will lose market share as a 

result. Accordingly, the Exchange does 

not believe that the proposed changes 

will impair the ability of members or 

competing order execution venues to 

maintain their competitive standing in 

the financial markets. 

C. Self-Regulatory Organization’s 

Statement on Comments on the 

Proposed Rule Change Received From 

Members, Participants, or Others 

No written comments were solicited 

or received with respect to the proposed 

rule change. 

III. Date of Effectiveness of the 

Proposed Rule Change and Timing for 

Commission Action 

The foregoing rule change is effective 

upon filing pursuant to Section 

19(b)(3)(A) 24 of the Act and 

subparagraph (f)(2) of Rule 19b–4 25

thereunder, because it establishes a due, 

fee, or other charge imposed by the 

Exchange. 

At any time within 60 days of the 

filing of such 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 

under Section 19(b)(2)(B) 26 of the Act to 

determine whether the proposed rule 

change should be approved or 

disapproved. 

IV. Solicitation of Comments

including whether the proposed rule 

change is consistent with the Act.

plans to submit this existing collection

performance of the functions of the

of the burden imposed by the collection 

of information; (c) ways to enhance the
