Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 172 / Wednesday, September 7, 2005 / Notices
in Section 8(b)(iii) of the Linkage Plan
and Phlx Rule 1087.
Section 8(b)(iii) of the Linkage Plan
provides that Eligible Market Makers
should send Principal Orders through
the Linkage on a limited basis and not
as a primary aspect of their business.
The 80/20 Test implements this policy
in the Linkage Plan and Phlx Rule 1087
by prohibiting a specialist or registered
options trader (‘‘ROT’’) from sending
Principal Orders in an eligible option
class if, in the last calendar quarter, the
specialist or ROT’s Principal Order
contract volume is disproportionate to
the specialist or ROT’s contract volume
executed against customer orders in its
own market.
The Exchange believes that applying
the 80/20 Test has resulted in anomalies
for ROTs with limited volume in an
eligible option class. In particular, if a
ROT has very little overall trading
volume in an option, the execution of
one or two Principal Orders during a
calendar quarter could result in the ROT
failing to meet the 80/20 Test. This
would then prohibit the ROT from using
the Linkage to send Principal Orders in
that options class for the following
calendar quarter. The Exchange believes
that it is not the intent of the Linkage
Plan and Exchange rules to prohibit
ROTs with limited volume from sending
Principal Orders through the Linkage in
these circumstances since such trading
clearly is not ‘‘a primary aspect of their
business.’’ Accordingly, the proposed
rule change seeks to establish a de
minimis exception from the 80/20 Test
in Phlx Rule 1087 for specialists and
ROTs that have total contract volume of
less than 1,000 contracts in an option
class for a calendar quarter.
III. Discussion
After careful review, the Commission
finds that the proposed rule change is
consistent with the requirements of the
Act and the rules and regulations
thereunder applicable to a national
securities exchange.6 In particular, the
Commission finds that the proposed
rule change is consistent with the
requirements of Section 6(b)(5) of the
Act 7 which requires, among other
things, that the rules of an exchange be
designed to promote just and equitable
principles of trade, to remove
impediments to and perfect the
mechanism of a free and open market,
and to protect investors and the public
interest. The Commission believes that
the proposed rule change will increase
6 In approving this proposed rule change, the
Commission has considered the proposed rule’s
impact on efficiency, competition, and capital
formation. 15 U.S.C. 78c(f).

the availability of Linkage to members
of the Participants by limiting the
applicability of the 80/20 Test in
situations where market makers have
minimal trading volume in a particular
options class.
The Commission recognizes that the
Exchange does not believe that it is
necessary to bar market makers with
limited volume from sending Principal
Orders through the Linkage, as such
trading does not raise concerns that a
member is sending such orders as ‘‘a
primary aspect of their business.’’ The
Commission believes that the de
minimis exemption from the 80/20 Test
proposed by the Exchange for market
makers that have a total contract volume
of less than 1,000 contracts in an
options class for a calendar quarter
should ensure that specialists and ROTs
with relatively low volume in a
particular options class can send a
reasonable number of Principal Orders
without being barred from using the
Linkage by application of the 80/20 Test
in the following calendar quarter.
IV. Conclusion
For the foregoing reasons, the
Commission finds that the proposed
rule change is consistent with the
requirements of the Act and the rules
and regulations thereunder.
It is therefore ordered, pursuant to
Section 19(b)(2) of the Act,8 that the
proposed rule change (SR-Phlx-2005–
33), as amended, is approved.
For the Commission by the Division of
Market Regulation, pursuant to delegated
authority.9

Secretary.
