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 

September 14, 2010, the Chicago Board 

Options Exchange, Incorporated (the 

‘‘Exchange’’ or ‘‘CBOE’’) filed with the 

Securities and Exchange Commission 

(the ‘‘Commission’’) the proposed rule 

change as described in Items I, II, and

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 modify the 

Fees Schedule for its CBOE Stock 

Exchange (‘‘CBSX’’). The text of the 

proposed rule change is available on the 

Exchange’s Web site (http:// 

www.cboe.org/legal), at the Exchange’s 

principal office, 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 

self-regulatory organization 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 those 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 parts of such 

statements. 

A. Self-Regulatory Organization’s 

Statement of the Purpose of, and the 

Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule 

Change 

1. Purpose 

CBSX proposes to adopt the Trading 

Permit Holder Application Fees that 

apply to CBOE. The purpose of the 

proposed rule change is to offset some 

of the expenses incurred by the 

Exchange in connection with CBSX 

Trading Permit Holder applicants and 

existing CBSX Trading Permit Holders. 

A description of the application fees is 

provided below. 

The Individual Applicant Fee 

(Trading Permit Holder) is payable by a 

new individual applicant for Trading 

Permit Holder status on the Exchange. 

The applicant’s Fingerprint Processing 

Fee is included as part of this fee. The 

New Trading Permit Holder Orientation 

& Exam Fee is payable by each applicant 

seeking Trading Permit Holder status, 

which requires a trading function. 

The TPH Organization Application 

Fee (Corporation/Partnership/LLC) is 

payable by an applicant that desires to 

be a TPH organization on the Exchange. 

This fee encompasses the TPH 

Organization Application and related 

documentation, one Responsible 

Person’s Orientation & Exam Fee and 

Fingerprint Fee associated with the TPH 

Organization Application, and 

Associated Person(s) Fees that are part 

of this TPH Organization Application. 

The TPH Organization Renewal Fee 

(Corporation/Partnership/LLC) is 

payable by a former trading firm 

member or TPH organization that 

reapplies for Trading Permit Holder 

status within nine months of its Trading 

Permit Status termination date and 

becomes an effective TPH organization 

within one year of its Trading Permit 

Status termination date. This fee 

encompasses the TPH Organization 

Application and related documentation 

and one Responsible Person who is a 

former Responsible Person who 

reapplies within nine months of his 

termination date and becomes an 

effective Responsible Person within one 

year of his termination date. 

The Associated Person Fee is payable 

for the addition of certain individuals 

on a TPH organization’s Form BD. This 

fee includes the related Fingerprint 

Processing Fee. This fee is payable by 

each executive officer, general partner, 

or LLC Manager. Additionally, this fee 

is payable by each principal shareholder 

that has 5% or more direct ownership 

of a class of a voting security of a TPH 

organization corporation, limited 

partner who has the right to receive 

upon dissolution, or has contributed, 

5% or more of the partnership’s capital, 

and LLC member who has the right to 

receive upon dissolution, or has 

contributed, 5% or more of the LLC’s 

capital. This fee is also payable by any 

person classified as a ‘‘Control Person’’ 

of the TPH organization. 

The Fingerprint Processing Fee will 

be assessed for employees of Trading 

Permit Holders and any other individual 

requesting the Exchange to process a 

fingerprint, electronically or otherwise, 

excluding fingerprint requirements for 

Individual Applicants, individuals 

applying for Renewal/Change of Status, 

and Associated Persons. 

The Renewal/Change of Status Fee is 

payable by a former individual Trading 

Permit Holder who reapplies for 

Trading Permit Holder status within 

nine months of his Trading Permit 

Holder status termination date and 

becomes an effective Trading Permit 

Holder within one year of his Trading 

Permit Holder status termination date. A 

former individual Trading Permit 

Holder or former individual member 

who reapplies for Trading Permit 

Holder status within nine months of 

termination from Trading Permit Holder 

status will be assessed the Renewal/ 

Change of Status fee at the time of 

submission of the application. If that 

person becomes an effective Trading 

Permit Holder more than one year after 

his Trading Permit Holder status 

termination date, the person will then 

be charged an additional fee equal to the

difference between the Individual

Change of Status fee. This Fee includes 

the related Fingerprint Processing Fee, if 

applicable.

a new joint account. The Non-Trading 

Permit Holder Customer Business Fee is 

payable by applicant TPH organizations 

that plan to conduct a public customer 

business. 

The Applicant/Trading Permit 

Holder/Associated Person Subject to 

Statutory Disqualification Fee is payable 

whenever a person or entity is subject 

to a statutory disqualification under the 

Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and: (i) 

Is an applicant for Trading Permit 

Holder status, (ii) is seeking to be an 

associated person of a Trading Permit 

Holder (except where the Exchange is 

merely asked to concur in an SEC Rule 

19h–1 filing by another self regulatory 

organization), or (iii) is an existing 

Trading Permit Holder or associated 

person who makes an application in 

accordance with Rule 3.18(b) or with 

respect to whom a proceeding is 

initiated pursuant to Rule 3.18. This fee 

is in addition to any other Trading 

Permit-related fees that might be 

applicable. 

The Fee for Change in Status that, if 

Approved, Would Require Amended or 

Additional SEC Rule 19h–1(c) Filing is 

payable whenever a person or entity, on 

whose behalf the Exchange has filed a 

Rule 19h–1(c) filing that has been 

approved by the SEC, applies for a 

change in status that requires the 

Exchange to file an amended or 

additional Rule 19h–1(c) filing, if the 

Exchange approves the requested 

change in status. This fee is in addition 

to any other Trading Permit-related fees 

that might be applicable. 

2. Statutory Basis 

The proposed rule change is 

consistent with Section 6(b) of the 

Securities Exchange Act of 1934 

(‘‘Act’’),3 in general, and furthers the 

objectives of Section 6(b)(4) 4 of the Act 

in particular, in that it is designed to 

provide for the equitable allocation of 

reasonable dues, fees, and other charges 

among CBOE and CBSX Trading Permit 

Holders and other persons using CBOE, 

CBSX and their facilities. 

B. Self-Regulatory Organization’s 

Statement on Burden on Competition 

CBOE 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. 

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 proposed rule change is 

designated by the Exchange as 

establishing or changing a due, fee, or 

other charge, thereby qualifying for 

effectiveness on filing pursuant to 

Section 19(b)(3)(A)(ii) 5 of the Act and 

subparagraph (f)(2) of Rule 19b–4 6

thereunder. 

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.
