Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 138 / Wednesday, July 20, 2005 / Notices
A. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement of the Purpose of, and
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule
Change
1. Purpose
and other persons using its facilities for
trading option contracts.
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 that is not
necessary or appropriate in furtherance
of the purposes of the Act.
The Exchange proposes to amend the
Schedule in order to modify the
Exchange’s marketing fee program.
Currently, except for transactions
involving options on the NASDAQ–100
Tracking Stock (‘‘QQQQ’’) and Standard
and Poor’s Depository Receipts (‘‘SPY’’),
the Exchange collects $0.60 per contract
for all transactions that are made
between a Lead Market Maker (‘‘LMM’’)
or a Market Maker against customer
orders from payment accepting firms in
the Exchange program.
The Exchange proposes to modify its
current program by reducing the
marketing fee from $0.60 per contract
for trades made with customer orders
from payment accepting firms in the
Exchange program to $0.45 per contract
for all public customer orders. The
proposed change does not affect the
Exchange’s marketing fee program for
trades involving options on the QQQQ
and SPY. The marketing fee for options
on the QQQQ and SPY is not being
amended. Currently, the Exchange also
caps marketing charges at $200 for all
trades not involving options on the
QQQQ or SPY. In addition to the rate
change, the Exchange is proposing to
eliminate the $200 per trade cap.
The Exchange states that the purpose
of the change in the marketing fee is to
help the Exchange’s marketing fee
program remain competitive with the
programs currently in place at other
exchanges. Specifically, a number of
other exchanges assess marketing
charges across a broader spectrum of
customer orders instead of limiting the
charges to transactions where the PCX
Market Maker trades against a payment
receiving firm. While the proposed rate
change will provide LMM’s with
competitive amounts of capital to attract
order flow, it is also believed that a
universally applied rate will help
market makers better understand the
total cost of the trade.

Number SR–PCX–2005–82 on the
subject line.
2. Statutory Basis
Paper Comments
The Exchange believes that its
proposal to amend its schedule of dues,
fees, and charges is consistent with
Section 6(b) of the Act 5 in general, and
Section 6(b)(4) of the Act 6 in particular,
in that it provides for the equitable
allocation of reasonable dues, fees, and
other charges among its OTP Holders
• Send paper comments in triplicate
to Jonathan G. Katz, Secretary,
Securities and Exchange Commission,
100 F Street, NE., Washington, DC

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
Because the foregoing proposed rule
change establishes or changes a due, fee,
or other charge imposed by the
Exchange, it has become effective
pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A)(ii) of the
Act 7 and Rule 19b–4(f)(2) 8 thereunder.
Accordingly, the proposal will take
effect upon filing with the Commission.
At any time within 60 days of the filing
of such proposed rule change, the
Commission may summarily abrogate
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.
IV. Solicitation of Comments
Interested persons are invited to
submit written data, views, and
arguments concerning the foregoing,
including whether the proposed rule
change is consistent with the Act.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: Disclosure of Change-of-Gauge
Services.
OMB Control Number: 2105–0538.
Expiration Date: September 30, 2005.
Type of Request: Extension of a
previously approved collection.
Abstract: Change-of-gauge service is
scheduled passenger air transportation
for which the operating carrier uses one
single flight number even though
passengers do not travel in the same
aircraft from origin to destination but
must change planes at an intermediate
stop. In addition to one-flight-to-oneflight change-of-gauge services, changeof-gauge services can also involve
aircraft changes between multiple
flights on one side of the change point
and one single flight on the other side.
As with one-for-one-change-of-gauge
services, the carrier assigns a single
flight number for the passenger’s entire
itinerary even though the passenger
changes planes, but in addition, the
single flight to or from the exchange
point itself has multiple numbers, one
for each segment with which it connects
and one for the local market in which
it operates. The Department recognizes
various public benefits that can flow
from change-of-gauge services, such as a
lowered likelihood of missed
connections. However, although changeof-gauge flights can offer valuable
consumer benefits, they can be
confusing and misleading unless
consumers are given reasonable and
timely notice that they will be required
to change planes during their journey.
Section 41712 of Title 49 of the U.S.
code authorizes the Department to
decide if a U.S. air carrier or foreign air
carrier or ticket agent (including travel
agents) has engaged in unfair or
