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 parts of such statements. A.

Such LMP Securities will include all Batslisted ETPs and certain non-Bats-listed ETPs for which the Exchange wants to incentivize Members to provide enhanced market quality. 2 17 Self-Regulatory Organizations; Bats BZX Exchange, Inc.; Notice of Filing and Immediate Effectiveness of a Proposed Rule Change to Rules 15.1(a) and (c) in Order To Implement a Tape B Quoting Tier VerDate Sep<11>2014 The Exchange filed a proposal to amend the fee schedule applicable to Members 3 and non-members of the Exchange pursuant to BZX Rules 15.1(a) and (c) in order to implement a Tape B Quoting Tier. The text of the proposed rule change is available at the Exchange’s Web site at www.batstrading.com, at the principal office of the Exchange, and at the Commission’s Public Reference Room. The Exchange proposes to amend its Fee Schedule to adopt a new Tape B Quoting Tier in order to strengthen market quality in LMP Securities 4 and SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the I. Self-Regulatory Organization’s Statement of the Terms of Substance of the Proposed Rule Change 1. Purpose BILLING CODE 7590–01–P May 17, 2016. ‘‘Act’’),1 and Rule 19b–4 thereunder,2 notice is hereby given that on May 11, 2016, Bats BZX Exchange, Inc. (the ‘‘Exchange’’ or ‘‘BZX’’) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (‘‘Commission’’) the proposed rule change as described in Items I and II 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. PO 00000 Frm 00083 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 ETPs 5 more broadly, by providing an enhanced rebate in Tape B 6 securities to Members that meet certain minimum quoting standards in at least 50 LMP Securities. In particular, the Exchange proposes to adopt the new Tape B Quoting Tier under which all Members would be eligible to receive an additional $0.0001 for each share of added displayed liquidity in all Tape B securities if the Member is enrolled in at least 50 LMP Securities for which: 7 (i) The Member’s NBBO Time 8 is at least 15% or NBBO Size Time 9 is at least 25%; and (ii) the Member’s Displayed Size Time 10 is at least 90%. 5 For purposes of this filing, ETP means any security type defined in Exchange Rule 14.11. 6 Tape B securities includes all securities listed on the Exchange, NYSE Arca, Inc., and NYSE MKT LLC. 7 As proposed, a Member must be enrolled in at least 50 LMP Securities for which the Member meets proposed requirements (i) and (ii), as measured on a security by security basis, in order to qualify for the Tape B Quoting Tier. Where a Member is enrolled in 50 or more LMP Securities, but only meets proposed requirements (i) and (ii) in 49 or fewer of those LMP Securities, the Member will not qualify for the Tape B Quoting Tier. 8 As proposed, NBBO Time means the average of the percentage of time during regular trading hours during which the Member maintains at least 100 shares at each of the NBB and NBO. As an example, where the Member maintains at least 100 shares at the NBB for 20% of the time during regular trading hours and at least 100 shares at the NBO for 10% of the time during regular trading hours, the Member’s NBBO Time would be 15% ((.20 + .10)/ 2). 9 As proposed, NBBO Size Time means the percentage of time during regular trading hours during which there are size-setting quotes at the NBBO on the Exchange. Stated another way, where the Exchange has size-setting quotes at the each of the NBB and NBO for any amount of time equal to or greater than 25% of regular trading hours, the proposed NBBO Size Time threshold will be met. A quote is a size-setting quote where it is the largest quote at the NBB or NBO and remains a size-setting quote until and unless another quote is at a more aggressive price or at the same price with greater size. The Exchange notes that, unlike NBBO Time, which applies to a particular Member’s quoting activity, NBBO Size Time is calculated based on all quoting activity on the Exchange. As an example, where the NBB is 10.00 as quoted by a single exchange with 500 shares and the Exchange then quotes 600 shares at 10.00, such quote is a sizesetting quote until another exchange quotes 700 shares at 10.00 or quotes at a more aggressive price. 10 As proposed, Displayed Size Time means the percentage of time during regular trading hours during which the Member maintains at least 2,500 displayed shares on the bid and separately maintains at least 2,500 displayed shares on the offer that are priced no more than 2% away from the NBB and NBO, respectively. Stated another way, where the Member maintains at least 2,500 displayed shares at or within 2% of the NBB and NBO on each of the bid and the offer, respectively, for any amount of time equal to or greater than 90% of regular trading hours, the Member will meet the proposed threshold. The Exchange notes that any displayed shares priced at or within 2% of the NBB or NBO (e.g. at multiple price levels) will be counted toward the 2,500 share requirement. As an example, where the NBBO is $10.00 by $10.01 all bid shares with a limit equal to or greater than $9.80 will be counted and any offer shares with a limit E:\FR\FM\23MYN1.SGM 23MYN1
