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). 

Intra-Market Competition 

The Exchange believes the proposal to 

pass through the cost of any materials 

that are necessary for the Exchange’s onsite engineers to complete the requested 

technical support will not result in any 

burden on intra-market competition that 

is not necessary or appropriate in 

furtherance of the purposes of the Act 

because the Exchange will only passthrough the actual costs it is charged by 

third-party external vendors for such 

materials. At least one competing 

options exchange group similarly passes 

along charges assessed to those 

exchanges by third-party external 

vendors supplying materials on behalf 

of that exchange group’s customers.10

Additionally, the pass through of 

costs for materials will be assessed 

equally to all Members and nonMembers who request technical support 

that requires the Exchange to purchase 

materials to complete the requested 

support. The Exchange notes that 

Members and non-Members are not 

required to use the service. The 

Exchange offers this service as a 

convenience to all Members and nonMembers. The Exchange believes the 

proposal will not impose any burden on 

intra-market competition because it will 

permit both Members and non-Members 

to request the use of the Exchange’s onsite data center personnel as technical 

support and as a convenience in order 

to test or otherwise assess the user’s 

connectivity to the Exchange via its data 

centers. 

Inter-Market Competition 

The Exchange believes that the 

proposed changes will not result in any 

burden on inter-market competition that 

is not necessary or appropriate in 

furtherance of the purposes of the Act. 

As discussed above, market participants 

are not forced to connect to and trade 

on all exchanges. The Exchange believes 

that the proposed pass-through of costs 

for materials for technical support will 

not cause any burden on inter-market 

competition because none of these 

changes impact other exchanges’ ability 

to compete. 

Accordingly, the Exchange does not 

believe its proposed fee changes impose 

any burden on competition that is not 

necessary or appropriate in furtherance 

of the purposes of the Act.

Statement on Comments on the 

Proposed Rule Change Received From 

Members, Participants, or Others

to determine whether the proposed rule 

change should be approved or
