on August 7, 2008, the American Stock

3Following a withdrawal of listing, an issuer may 

then list on any national securities exchange if it 

meets the listing standards of that exchange or may 

remain unlisted. 

4Some of these issuers are not required, by their 

constitutive documents or the laws of their 

jurisdictions of incorporation, to get board approval 

for withdrawal of listing and therefore only Rule 18 

would require separate board action. For other 

issuers, the proposed option of providing a letter 

would allow them to make the listing change on a 

more timely and economical basis, while still 

having to comply with the requirements of their 

constitutive documents and the laws of their 

jurisdictions of incorporation. 

5The basis for the officer’s authority may be, for 

example, relevant provisions in the issuer’s 

constitutive documents or board resolutions setting 

out the delegation of authority to the executive 

officer. 

6Notwithstanding this proposal, issuers will have 

to comply with Rule 12d2–2(c) and any other 

applicable provisions under the Act to withdraw 

their securities from listing on the Exchange.

Secretary, the Amex 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 

Amex 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 III below. The Amex 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 the 

voluntary delisting procedures set forth 

in Exchange Rule 18 for issuers of 

securities listed pursuant to Sections 

104 (Bonds and Debentures), 106 

(Currency and Index Warrants) or 107 

(Other Securities) of the Amex Company 

Guide and Exchange Rules 1000-AEMI 

and 1001 et seq. (Portfolio Depositary 

Receipts), 1000A-AEMI and 1001A et 

seq. (Index Fund Shares), 1000B et seq. 

(Managed Fund Shares), 1200-AEMI and 

1201 et seq. (Trading of Trust Issued 

Receipts), 1200A-AEMI and 1201A et 

seq. (Commodity-Based Trust Shares), 

1400 et seq. (Trading of Paired Trust 

Shares), 1500-AEMI and 1501 et seq. 

(Trading of Partnership Units), or 1600 

et seq. (Trading of Trust Units). 

Exchange Rule 18 requires companies 

voluntarily withdrawing securities from 

listing to provide to the Exchange a 

certified copy of the resolution of the 

board of directors of the issuer 

authorizing such action. The Exchange 

proposes to amend Rule 18 to provide 

that, in the case of a voluntary delisting 

where the listing of the securities is 

being transferred to another national 

securities exchange, the issuer will be 

required to provide, in lieu of a certified 

copy of a board resolution, a letter 

signed by an authorized executive 

officer setting forth the reasons for the 

proposed listing withdrawal and the 

basis for the officer’s authority to take 

such action. 

Pursuant to a merger agreement dated 

January 17, 2008 among the Exchange, 

the Amex Membership Corporation, 

NYSE Euronext and certain other 

entities, a successor to the Exchange 

will become an indirect, wholly-owned 

subsidiary of NYSE Euronext (the 

‘‘Acquisition’’). As part of its strategic 

business planning for the post-merger 

group, NYSE Euronext intends to cease 

listing and trading exchange-traded 

funds and structured products 

(including, for example, index-linked 

securities such as index-linked notes) 

on the Amex shortly after the 

completion of the acquisition and plans 

to encourage issuers to move the listing 

of those securities from the Amex to its 

subsidiary, NYSE Arca, Inc. (‘‘NYSE 

Arca’’) and the New York Stock 

Exchange LLC (specifically, the NYSE 

Bonds platform). 

As the change of listing venue 

contemplated by this business plan will 

require the delisting of the securities 

from the Exchange, and there is no basis 

under Exchange rules for a delisting 

initiated by the Exchange itself under 

these circumstances, the issuers will 

have to withdraw their securities from 

listing voluntarily pursuant to Exchange 

Rule 18 and SEC Rule 12d2–2.3 Because 

the change of listing venue will be 

effectuated at the request of NYSE 

Euronext as owner of the Exchange, and 

obtaining a certified copy of the board 

resolutions as required by Rule 18 may 

be burdensome for the issuers involved, 

the Exchange believes that it is 

appropriate to provide an alternative to 

this requirement for the securities that, 

pursuant to the NYSE Euronext business 

plan, will no longer be listed on the 

Amex (or the Amex’s successor).4

In lieu of the board resolution, the 

issuer will be required to provide a 

letter signed by an authorized executive 

officer setting forth the reasons for the 

proposed withdrawal and the basis for 

the officer’s authority to take such 

action. Requiring a letter from an 

authorized executive officer that 

includes the reasons for the proposed 

withdrawal and the basis for the 

officer’s authority to take such action 

will ensure that the issuer properly 

made the delisting decision and 

complied with its constitutive 

documents and applicable laws in effect 

in its jurisdiction, consistent with 

investor protection and the public 

interest.5 The proposed rule specifies 

that the letter will only be accepted for 

purposes of withdrawal of listing where 

the listing of the securities is being 

transferred to another national securities 

exchange. 

The Exchange believes that changing 

the rule to allow this exception to the 

requirements of Exchange Rule 18 for 

these classes of securities is appropriate 

for a number of reasons. First, only 

issuers that are planning to transfer their 

listing to another national securities 

exchange will be able to provide the 

letter from an authorized executive 

officer; in the event an issuer decides no 

longer to be listed on an exchange, Rule 

18 will still require board resolutions to 

effect the delisting. Secondly, separate 

board approval of a change of listing 

venue is not required of many of the 

issuers covered by the proposed rule. To 

the extent board approval is otherwise 

required by, for example, the governing 

documents of an eligible listed issuer or 

the law of the jurisdiction in which the 

issuer is incorporated, the proposed rule 

change would change only the form in 

which the Exchange must be notified of 

the decision to delist, not the legal 

requirements for approval that apply to 

the particular issuer.6

Finally, the Exchange believes the 

proposed change is justified because the 

withdrawal from listing of the 

applicable types of issuers would be 

occurring at the Exchange’s request to 

further a business objective of the 

Exchange’s parent company. Following 

the effectuation of this business plan, 

these types of securities will no longer 

be listed on the Amex, and it is 

therefore appropriate for Exchange to 

facilitate the withdrawal process, with 

the conditions proposed. 

The Exchange also proposes to make 

other minor clarifying changes to 

Section 1010, and to delete from Section 

1010 the re-statement of Exchange Rule 

18 and Rule 12d2–2 under the Act.

Implementation 

This rule filing is being made to 

implement a NYSE Euronext business 

plan for the Amex after the completion 

of the Acquisition and the rule text will 

specify that the rule will become 

operative as of the date of the closing of 

the Acquisition and that in the event 

that the Acquisition has not been 

effected on or before December 31, 2008, 

the rule will not take effect. In the event 

that the rule change does not take effect, 

the Exchange will rescind the approved 

rule text by a separate filing with the 

Commission. 

2. Statutory Basis 

The Exchange believes that the 

proposed rule change is consistent with 

Section 6 of the Act in general and 

furthers the objectives of Section 

6(b)(5) 7 in particular in that it is 

designed to promote just and equitable 

principles of trade, to foster cooperation 

and coordination with persons engaged 

in regulating, clearing, settling, 

processing information with respect to, 

and facilitating transactions in 

securities, and to remove impediments 

to and perfect the mechanism of a free 

and open market and a national market 

system and, in general, to protect 

investors and the public interest. 

The Exchange notes that requiring a 

letter from an authorized executive 

officer instead of a certified copy of the 

resolutions adopted by the issuer’s 

board of directors is consistent with the 

requirements of Rule 12d2–2 8 under the 

Act and notes that the proposal is 

similar to the voluntary withdrawal 

procedures for dually-listed issuers on 

NYSE Arca, Inc.9 and index-linked 

notes on NYSE.10 Replacing the board 

certification requirement with a letter 

from an authorized executive officer 

may ease the burden on issuers of 

securities who wish to transfer the 

listing to another national securities 

exchange. Further, the Exchange notes 

that the requirement of a letter from an 

authorized executive officer would 

ensure the issuer properly made the 

delisting decision and complied with 

applicable laws in effect in its 

jurisdiction, consistent with investor 

protection and the public interest, and 

would not supersede the requirements 

of the issuer’s governing documents or 

its jurisdiction of incorporation. 

The Exchange notes that the proposed 

alternative procedure for withdrawal of 

listing would apply only to securities 

that would be listed and traded on 

another national securities exchange 

following the withdrawal of listing. 

Since the securities would list and trade 

on another national securities exchange, 

transparent last sale information will 

continue to be disseminated on the 

securities on an uninterrupted basis. It 

would also ensure that the other 

protections for trading a security on a 

national securities exchange remain, 

such as the periodic reporting 

obligations under the Act. 

Finally, the Exchange believes that 

the restatements of Rule 18 in Company 

Guide Section 1010 and of Rule 12d2–

2 under the Act are no longer necessary 

and deletion of these restatements is 

consistent with the requirements of the 

Act. When the Company Guide was 

published separately from the rest of the 

Amex Rules, the restatements of 

provisions not found in the Company 

Guide was helpful to readers. Now that 

all of the Amex and Commission rules 

are equally available, and immediately 

updated when changed, on the Internet, 

these restatements are not only not 

necessary, but may create confusion in 

the event that such rules are changed. 

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. 

C. Self-Regulatory Organization’s 

Statement on Comments on the 

Proposed Rule Change Received From 

Members, Participants or Others 

The Exchange did not receive any 

written comments on the proposed rule 

change. 

III. Date of Effectiveness of the 

Proposed Rule Change and Timing for 

Commission Action 

Within 35 days of the date of 

publication of this notice in the Federal 

Register or within such longer period (i) 

as the Commission may designate up to 

90 days of such date if it finds such 

longer period to be appropriate and 

publishes its reasons for so finding, or 

(ii) as to which Amex consents, the 

Commission will: 

(A) by order approve such proposed 

rule change; or 

(B) institute proceedings to determine 

whether the proposed rule change 

should be disapproved. 

IV. Solicitation of Comments

submit written data, views, and 

arguments concerning the foregoing, 

including whether the proposed rule 

change is consistent with the Act.

the following methods:

Self-Regulatory Organizations; 

Chicago Stock Exchange, Inc.; Notice 

of Filing and Immediate Effectiveness 

of a Proposed Rule Change Relating to 

Participant Fees and Credits 

August 14, 2008. 

Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the 

Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the 

‘‘Act’’),1 and Rule 19b–4 thereunder,2

notice is hereby given that on August 

13, 2008, the Chicago Stock Exchange, 

Inc. (the ‘‘CHX’’ or the ‘‘Exchange’’) 

filed with the Securities and Exchange 

Commission (‘‘Commission’’) the 

proposed rule change as described in 

Items I, II, and III below, which items 

have been prepared by the CHX. 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 CHX proposes to amend its 

Schedule of Participant Fees and 

Assessments (the ‘‘Fee Schedule’’) to 

provide for trade processing fee credits 

to CHX–registered Institutional Brokers. 

The text of this proposed rule change is 

available on the Exchange’s Web site at 

http://www.chx.com/rules/ 

proposed_rules.htm and in the 

Commission’s Public Reference Room, 

100 F Street, NE., Washington, DC 

20549. 

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 

CHX included statements concerning 

the purpose of and basis for the 

proposed rule changes and discussed 

any comments it received regarding the 

proposal. The text of these statements 

may be examined at the places specified 

in Item IV below. The CHX 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 

Through this filing, the Exchange 

would amend its Fee Schedule to 

provide for a credit to institutional 

brokers relating to trade processing fees 

charged by the Exchange to its 

participants. Trade processing fees are 

fees charged by the Exchange for 

transactions that are executed and 

reported to the tape (but not reported to 

clearing) by an institutional broker in an 

away market (i.e., not the Exchange), but 

which are reported to clearing by the 

Exchange’s systems. The use of the 

Exchange’s systems to report trades to 

clearing, instead of the facility on which 

the trade was executed, is done at the 

request of the institutional broker’s 

customer to simplify the customer’s 

ability to access clearing data from a 

unified source. All clearing transactions 

reported in this manner appear in the 

Exchange’s Regional Trade Interface 

Operations (‘‘RIO’’) file along with the 

customer’s trades executed on the CHX. 

The Exchange proposes to provide to 

the originating broker a trade processing 

fee credit equal to 3% per side of the 

trade processing fees received by the 

Exchange. The Exchange further 

proposes to provide to the broker of 

credit a trade processing fee credit equal 

to 6% of the trade processing fees 

received by the Exchange for the 

portion(s) of the transaction handled by 

the broker of credit. An ‘‘originating 

broker’’ is defined as the institutional 

broker that executes a trade on an away 

market. A ‘‘broker of credit’’ is defined 

as the institutional broker that acts as 

the broker for the ultimate Exchange 

clearing participant. Prior to this filing, 

trade processing fee credits were not 

paid by the Exchange. This proposed fee 

schedule change would take effect upon 

filing. 

2. Statutory Basis 

The Exchange believes that the rule 

changes proposed in this submission are 

consistent with the requirements of the 

Act and the rules and regulations 

thereunder that are applicable to a 

national securities exchange, and, in 

particular, with the requirements of 

Section 6(b). The proposed rule change 

is consistent with Section 6(b)(4) of the 

Act in that it provides for the equitable 

allocation of reasonable dues, fees and 

other charges among its members. 

Moreover, the proposed trade 

processing fee credits will allow the 

Exchange to share trade processing fees 

with institutional brokers, similar to the 

way it currently shares transaction fees 

for CHX executions with institutional 

brokers. Prior to this filing, trade 

processing fees were not shared with 

institutional brokers. 

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. 

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 establishes
