SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-102106; File No. SR-PEARL-2024-63]

Self-Regulatory Organizations; MIAX PEARL, LLC; Notice of Filing 
and Immediate Effectiveness of a Proposed Rule Change To Make Non-
Substantive, Clarifying Changes to the MIAX Pearl Options Fee Schedule

January 3, 2025.
    Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 
(``Act''),\1\ and Rule 19b-4 thereunder,\2\ notice is hereby given that 
on December 23, 2025, MIAX PEARL, LLC (``Exchange'') filed with the 
Securities and Exchange Commission (``Commission'') the proposed rule 
change as described in Item I below, which Item has been substantially 
prepared by the Exchange. The Commission is publishing this notice to 
solicit comments on the proposed rule change from interested persons.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(1).
    \2\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

I. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Terms of Substance 
of the Proposed Rule Change

    The Exchange proposes to amend the MIAX Pearl Options Exchange Fee 
Schedule (the ``Fee Schedule'') to update the Exchange's email domain 
and delete the reference to mini-options.
    The proposed rule change, including the Exchange's statement of the 
purpose of, and statutory basis for, the proposed rule change, is 
available on the Exchange's website at https://www.miaxglobal.com/markets/us-equities/pearl-equities/rule-filings and on the Commission's 
website at https://www.sec.gov/rules-regulations/self-regulatory-organization-rulemaking/national-securities-exchanges?file_number=SR-PEARL-2024-63.

II. Date of Effectiveness of the Proposed Rule Change and Timing for 
Commission Action

    The Exchange has filed the proposed rule change pursuant to Section 
19(b)(3)(A) of the Act \3\ and Rule 19b-4(f)(6) \4\ thereunder. Because 
the foregoing proposed rule change does not: (i) significantly affect 
the protection of investors or the public interest; (ii) impose any 
significant burden on competition; or (iii) become operative for 30 
days from the date on which it was filed, or such shorter time as the 
Commission may designate, it has become effective pursuant to Section 
19(b)(3)(A) of the Act \5\ and Rule 19b-4(f)(6) \6\ thereunder.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ 15 U.S.C. 78(b)(3)(A).
    \4\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6).
    \5\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A).
    \6\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6). In addition, Rule 19b-4(f)(6)(iii) 
requires the Exchange to give the Commission written notice of its 
intent to file the proposed rule change, along with a brief 
description and text of the proposed rule change, at least five 
business days prior to the date of filing of the proposed rule 
change, or such shorter time as designated by the Commission. The 
Exchange has satisfied this requirement.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    A proposed rule change filed under Rule 19b-4(f)(6) \7\ normally 
does not become operative prior to 30 days after the date of the 
filing. However, pursuant to Rule 19b-4(f)(6)(iii),\8\ the Commission 
may designate a shorter time if such action is consistent with 
protection of investors and the public interest. The Exchange has asked 
the Commission to waive the 30-day operative delay so that the proposed 
rule change may become operative immediately upon filing. The 
Commission believes that waving the 30-day operative delay is 
consistent with the protection of investors and the public interest 
because it will allow the Exchange to delete an outdated reference to 
mini-options that are no longer offered by the Exchange and update a 
reference to the Exchange's old email domain, thereby alleviating 
potential confusion and adding clarity to its rules, and does not 
introduce any novel regulatory issues. Accordingly, the Commission 
designates the proposed rule change to be operative upon filing.\9\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6).
    \8\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6)(iii).
    \9\ For purposes only of waiving the 30-day operative delay, the 
Commission also has considered the proposed rule's impact on 
efficiency, competition, and capital formation. See 15 U.S.C. 
78c(f).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    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 will institute proceedings to 
determine whether the proposed rule change should be approved or 
disapproved.

III. Solicitation of Comments

arguments concerning the foregoing, including whether the proposed rule
