###### Securities and Exchange Commission

          - [Release No. 34-92190; File No. SR-ISE-2021-13]

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 June 8, 2021, Nasdaq ISE, LLC (“ISE” or “Exchange”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC” or “Commission”) the proposed rule change as described in Items I, II, and III, below, which Items have been prepared by the Exchange. The Commission is publishing this notice to solicit comments on the proposed rule change from interested persons.

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

The Exchange proposes to amend ISE's Pricing Schedule at Options 7, Section 3, “Regular Order Fees and Rebates” and Section 4, “Complex Order Fees and Rebates.”

The Exchange originally filed the proposed pricing change on June 1, 2021 (SR-ISE-2021-12). On June 8, 2021, the Exchange withdrew that filing and submitted this filing.

The text of the proposed rule change is available on the Exchange's website at *https://listingcenter.nasdaq.com/​rulebook/​ise/​rules,* at the principal office of the Exchange, and at the Commission's Public Reference Room.

## II. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Purpose of, and Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change

In its filing with the Commission, the Exchange included statements concerning the purpose of and basis for the proposed rule change and discussed any comments it received on the proposed rule change. The text of these statements may be examined at the places specified in Item IV below. The Exchange has prepared summaries, set forth in sections A, B, and C below, of the most significant aspects of such statements.

### A. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Purpose of, and Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change

#### 1. Purpose

The Exchange proposes to amend ISE's Pricing Schedule at Options 7, Section 3, “Regular Order Fees and Rebates” and Section 4, “Complex Order Fees and Rebates.” Each change is described below.

#### Options 7, Section 3 Regular Order Fees and Rebates

Today, the Exchange assesses a Maker Fee of $0.18 per contract in Select Symbols [3]            for Market Maker,[4]            Non-Nasdaq ISE Market Maker (FarMM),[5]            Firm Proprietary [6]           /Broker-Dealer,[7]            and Professional Customer [8]            orders. Priority Customer [9]            orders are not assessed a Select Symbol Maker Fee.

Further, today, pursuant to Options 7, Section 3, note 10, a Market Maker is not charged a fee or paid a rebate when trading against non-Priority Customer Complex Orders [10]            that leg into the regular [11]            order book. Also, today, pursuant to Options 7, Section 3, note 11, a Market Maker, FarMM, Firm Proprietary/Broker Dealer, and Professional Customer are assessed a $0.25 per contract fee, instead of the applicable fee or rebate, when trading against Priority Customer Complex Orders that leg into the regular order book. Today, Market Makers that qualify for Market Maker Plus in Select Symbols pay a $0.15 per contract fee in the symbols for which they qualify for Market Maker Plus when trading against Priority Customer Complex Orders of less than 50 contracts in Select Symbols that leg into the regular order book. Further, Market Makers that qualify for Market Maker Plus in Select Symbols do not pay any fee nor receive any rebate in the symbols for which they qualify for Market Maker Plus when trading against Priority Customer Complex Orders of 50 contracts or more in Select Symbols that leg into the regular order book.

The Exchange proposes to remove rule text from Options 7, Section 3, note 11, which provides that Market Makers that qualify for Market Maker Plus in Select Symbols will pay a $0.15 per contract fee in symbols for which they       ( print page 32998)    qualify for Market Maker Plus when trading against Priority Customer Complex Orders of less than 50 contracts in Select Symbols that leg into the regular order book. Additionally, the Exchange proposes to modify the remainder of note 11 to provide, “Market Makers that qualify for Market Maker Plus in Select Symbols will not pay this fee nor receive any rebate in symbols for which they qualify for Market Maker Plus when trading against Priority Customer Complex Orders leg into the regular order book.”

With the proposed amendments to note 11 of Options 7, Section 3, a Market Maker that qualifies for Market Maker Plus when trading against Priority Customer Complex Orders leg into the regular order book would no longer pay a $0.15 per contract fee, rather, the Market Maker would pay no fee, nor receive any rebate similar to the manner in which Market Makers are priced today for orders of 50 contracts or more in Select Symbols, when those Market Makers qualify for Market Maker Plus and trade against Priority Customer Complex Orders leg into the regular order book. This proposal would align pricing for Market Makers that qualify for Market Maker Plus when trading against Priority Customer Complex Orders leg into the regular order book, irrespective of the size of the order. Market Makers that do not qualify for Market Maker Plus would continue to pay a $0.25 per contract fee when trading against Priority Customer Complex Orders that leg into the regular order book similar to other market participants.

The Exchange believes this pricing will continue to incentivize Market Makers to qualify for Market Maker Plus in order to earn the associated rebates for Market Maker Plus and also pay no fees when trading against Priority Customer Complex Orders leg into the regular order book in Select Symbols.

The Exchange also proposes to make a non-substantive amendment to capitalize the term “Complex Order” in current note 10 of Options 7, Section 3.

#### Options 7, Section 4, Complex Order Fees and Rebates

Currently, Options 7, Section 4 provides a fee structure for Complex Orders that provides rebates to Priority Customer Complex Orders in order to encourage Members to bring that order flow to the Exchange. Specifically, Priority Customer Complex Orders are provided rebates in Select Symbols and Non-Select Symbols [12]            (other than NDX, NQX, and MNX as noted within note 4 of Options 7, Section 4) based on Priority Customer average daily volume (“ADV”).[13] 

Today, Options 7, Section 4, note 1 provides, “Rebate provided per contract per leg if the order trades with non-Priority Customer orders in the Complex Order Book. Rebate provided per contract leg in Select Symbols where the largest leg of the Complex Order is under fifty (50) contracts and trades with quotes and orders on the regular order book. No Priority Customer Complex Order rebates will be provided in Select Symbols if any leg of the order that trades with interest on the regular order book is fifty (50) contracts or more. No Priority Customer Complex Order rebates will be provided in Non-Select Symbols if any leg of the order trades with interest on the regular order book, irrespective of order size.”

The Exchange proposes to amend the second sentence in note 1 of Options 7, Section 4 to state, “This rebate will be reduced by $0.15 per contract in Select Symbols where the largest leg of the complex order is under fifty (50) contracts and trades with quotes and orders on the regular order book.” The proposed amendment to the second sentence of note 1 of Options 7, Section 4, would reduce the current rebate paid in Select Symbols, per contract, when the largest leg of the Complex Order is under fifty contracts and trades with quotes and orders on the regular order book. Today, the Exchange pays no Priority Customer Complex Order rebates in Select Symbols if any leg of the order that trades with interest on the regular order book is fifty contracts or more, nor does the Exchange pay a Priority Customer Complex Order rebate in Non-Select Symbols if any leg of the order trades with interest on the regular order book, irrespective of order size. The Exchange has observed in the past that several market participants have entered larger sized Priority Customer Complex Orders with a leg of fifty or more contracts to earn a rebate. When these Complex Orders do not find a counterparty in the Complex Order Book, the orders may leg into the regular order book where they are typically executed by Market Makers on the individual legs who pay a fee to trade with this order flow.[14]            As a result, the Market Maker's ability to provide liquidity on the Exchange is adversely affected as they are charged to trade against these larger complex orders when they leg into the regular market and execute against their quotes. For this reason, the Exchange continues to not pay Priority Customer Complex Order rebates in Select Symbols if any leg of the order that trades with interest on the regular order book is fifty contracts or more, including for Select Symbols which do not pay a Priority Customer Complex Order rebate if any leg of the order trades with interest on the regular order book, irrespective of order size.

The Exchange's proposal to reduce the Select Symbol rebate when the largest leg of the Complex Order is under fifty contracts and trades with quotes and orders on the regular order book, by $0.15 per contract, is intended to continue to incentivize Members to send order flow to the Exchange despite the reduction. Also, the Exchange will continue to pay Priority Customer rebates for Priority Customer Complex Orders of any size which trades with non-Priority Customer orders in the Complex Order Book, based on the Priority Customer Complex Tier achieved, thereby continuing to incentivize Members to bring Complex Order flow to the Exchange to earn the rebate on their Priority Customer Complex Order volume.

Further, the proposal would close the pricing gap as between Members who receive a Priority Customer rebate, which is being reduced by this proposal, in Select Symbols where the largest leg of the Complex Order is under fifty (50) contracts and trades with quotes and orders on the regular order book as compared to both Members that do not receive a Priority Customer rebate in non-Select Symbols if any leg of the order trades with interest on the regular order book, irrespective of order size, and Members that do not receive a Priority Customer rebate in Select Symbols where the largest leg of the Complex Order is fifty contracts or more and trades with quotes and orders on the regular order book.

#### 2. Statutory Basis

The Exchange believes that its proposal is consistent with Section 6(b) of the Act,[15]            in general, and furthers the objectives of Sections 6(b)(4) and 6(b)(5) of the Act,[16]            in particular, in that it       ( print page 32999)    provides for the equitable allocation of reasonable dues, fees, and other charges among members and issuers and other persons using any facility, and is not designed to permit unfair discrimination between customers, issuers, brokers, or dealers.

The proposed changes to the Pricing Schedule are reasonable in several respects. As a threshold matter, the Exchange is subject to significant competitive forces in the market for options securities transaction services that constrain its pricing determinations in that market. The fact that this market is competitive has long been recognized by the courts. In *NetCoalition* v. *Securities and Exchange Commission,* the D.C. Circuit stated as follows: “[n]o one disputes that competition for order flow is `fierce.' . . . As the SEC explained, `[i]n the U.S. national market system, buyers and sellers of securities, and the broker-dealers that act as their order-routing agents, have a wide range of choices of where to route orders for execution'; [and] `no exchange can afford to take its market share percentages for granted' because `no exchange possesses a monopoly, regulatory or otherwise, in the execution of order flow from broker dealers'. . . .” [17] 

The Commission and the courts have repeatedly expressed their preference for competition over regulatory intervention in determining prices, products, and services in the securities markets. In Regulation NMS, while adopting a series of steps to improve the current market model, the Commission highlighted the importance of market forces in determining prices and SRO revenues and, also, recognized that current regulation of the market system “has been remarkably successful in promoting market competition in its broader forms that are most important to investors and listed companies.” [18] 

Numerous indicia demonstrate the competitive nature of this market. For example, clear substitutes to the Exchange exist in the market for options security transaction services. The Exchange is only one of sixteen options exchanges to which market participants may direct their order flow. Within this environment, market participants can freely and often do shift their order flow among the Exchange and competing venues in response to changes in their respective pricing schedules. As such, the proposal represents a reasonable attempt by the Exchange to increase its liquidity and market share relative to its competitors.

#### Options 7, Section 3 Regular Order Fees and Rebates

The Exchange's proposal to remove certain rule text from Options 7, Section 3, note 11, and amend the remaining rule text is reasonable as a Market Maker that qualifies for Market Maker Plus when trading against Priority Customer Complex Orders that leg into the regular order book would no longer pay a $0.15 per contract fee, rather, the Market Maker would pay no fee, nor receive any rebate. This proposal would align the pricing to the manner in which Market Makers are priced today for orders of 50 contracts or more in Select Symbols, when those Market Makers qualify for Market Maker Plus and trade against Priority Customer Complex Orders leg into the regular order book. Specifically, Market Makers that qualify for Market Maker Plus when trading against Priority Customer Complex Orders that leg into the regular order book, would pay no fee, nor receive any rebate, irrespective of the size of the order. The Exchange believes this pricing will continue to incentivize Market Makers to qualify for Market Maker Plus in order to earn the associated rebates for Market Maker Plus and also pay no fees when trading against Priority Customer Complex Orders leg into the regular order book in Select Symbols. Market Makers that do not qualify for Market Maker Plus would continue to pay a $0.25 per contract fee when trading against Priority Customer Complex Orders that leg into the regular order book similar to other market participants.

The Exchange's proposal to remove certain rule text from Options 7, Section 3, note 11, and amend the remaining rule text is equitable and not unfairly discriminatory. Market Makers that qualifies for Market Maker Plus when trading against Priority Customer Complex Orders leg into the regular order book would uniformly pay no fee, nor receive any rebate, irrespective of the size of the order. The Exchange will continue to assess a $0.25 per contract fee to all other non-Priority Customer market participants, including Market Makers that do not qualify for Market Maker Plus, when trading against Priority Customer Complex Orders that leg into the regular order book. The Exchange believes that it is not unfairly discriminatory to not assess Market Makers a fee if they qualify for Market Maker Plus because those Market Makers are paid rebates within the Market Maker Plus Program for adding value for quoting at the NBBO for a significant percentage of time. Further, all Market Makers are subject to the same qualification criteria for Market Maker Plus.

The Exchange's proposal to capitalize the term “Complex Order” in current note 10 of Options 7, Section 3 is non-substantive.

#### Options 7, Section 4, Complex Order Fees and Rebates

The Exchange's proposal to amend the second sentence in note 1 of Options 7, Section 4 to state, “This rebate will be reduced by $0.15 per contract in Select Symbols where the largest leg of the complex order is under fifty (50) contracts and trades with quotes and orders on the regular order book,” is reasonable. The proposed amendment to note 1 of Options 7, Section 4, would reduce the current rebate paid in Select Symbols, per contract, when the largest leg of the Complex Order is under fifty contracts and trades with quotes and orders on the regular order book. Overall, the Exchange believes that the Priority Customer Complex Order rebate program, as modified, is reasonable because the program is optional and all Members can choose to participate or not. The Exchange's proposal to reduce the Select Symbol rebate when the largest leg of the Complex Order is under fifty contracts and trades with quotes and orders on the regular order book, by $0.15 per contract, is intended to continue to incentivize Members to send order flow to the Exchange despite the reduction. Also, the Exchange will continue to pay Priority Customer rebates for Priority Customer Complex Orders of any size which trades with non-Priority Customer orders in the Complex Order Book, based on the Priority Customer Complex Tier achieved, thereby continuing to incentivize Members to bring Complex Order flow to the Exchange to earn the rebate on their Priority Customer Complex Order volume. Further, the proposal would close the pricing gap as between Members who receive a Priority Customer rebate, which is being reduced by this proposal, in Select Symbols where the largest leg of the Complex Order is under fifty (50) contracts and trades with quotes and orders on the regular order book as compared to both Members that do not receive a Priority Customer rebate in non-Select Symbols if any leg of the order trades with interest on the regular order book, irrespective of order size, and Members that do not receive a Priority Customer rebate in Select Symbols where the largest leg of the       ( print page 33000)    Complex Order is fifty contracts or more and trades with quotes and orders on the regular order book. This fee remains competitive with other options markets.[19] 

The Exchange's proposal to amend the second sentence in note 1 of Options 7, Section 4 to state, “This rebate will be reduced by $0.15 per contract in Select Symbols where the largest leg of the complex order is under fifty (50) contracts and trades with quotes and orders on the regular order book,” is equitable and not unfairly discriminatory. The Exchange will continue to uniformly pay rebates to Priority Customer Complex Orders trading with non-Priority Customer orders in the Complex Order Book, regardless of size, based on the Priority Customer Complex Tier achieved. Further, the Exchange would uniformly pay a reduced rebate (reduced by $0.15 per contract) in Select Symbols where the largest leg of the complex order is under fifty contracts and trades with quotes and orders on the regular order book.

### B. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Burden on Competition

The Exchange 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.

#### Inter-Market Competition

The proposal does not impose an undue burden on inter-market competition. The Exchange believes its proposal remains competitive with other options markets and will offer market participants with another choice of where to transact options. 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 that have been exempted from compliance with the statutory standards applicable to 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.

#### Options 7, Section 3 Regular Order Fees and Rebates

The Exchange's proposal to remove certain rule text from Options 7, Section 3, note 11, and amend the remaining rule text does not impose an undue burden on competition. Market Makers that qualifies for Market Maker Plus when trading against Priority Customer Complex Orders leg into the regular order book would uniformly pay no fee, nor receive any rebate, irrespective of the size of the order. The Exchange will continue to assess a $0.25 per contract fee to all other non-Priority Customer market participants, including Market Makers that do not qualify for Market Maker Plus, when trading against Priority Customer Complex Orders that leg into the regular order book. Today, Market Makers that qualify for Market Maker Plus are paid rebates based on their tier qualification for adding value for quoting at the NBBO for a significant percentage of time. All Market Makers are subject to the same qualification criteria for Market Maker Plus.

The Exchange's proposal to capitalize the term “Complex Order” in current note 10 of Options 7, Section 3 is non-substantive.

#### Options 7, Section 4, Complex Order Fees and Rebates

The Exchange's proposal to amend the second sentence in note 1 of Options 7, Section 4 to state, “This rebate will be reduced by $0.15 per contract in Select Symbols where the largest leg of the complex order is under fifty (50) contracts and trades with quotes and orders on the regular order book,” does not impose an undue burden on competition. The Exchange uniformly pay rebates to Priority Customer Complex Orders trading with non-Priority Customer orders in the Complex Order Book, regardless of size, based on the Priority Customer Complex Tier achieved and will continue to pay rebates. Further, the Exchange would uniformly pay a reduced rebate (reduced by $0.15 per contract) in Select Symbols where the largest leg of the complex order is under fifty contracts and trades with quotes and orders on the regular order book.
