Self-Regulatory Organizations; Philadelphia Stock Exchange, Inc.; Notice of Filing and Immediate Effectiveness of Proposed Rule Change Relating to Exchange Rule 715, 6305-6307 [E6-1613]

Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 71, No. 25 / Tuesday, February 7, 2006 / Notices In connection with these revisions to Exchange Rule 11.3, the Exchange is also removing the language in Exchange Rule 11.3 relating to minimum price variations in bonds. The Exchange does not trade bonds and has not traded bonds for several years. 2. Statutory Basis The Exchange believes that the proposed rule change is consistent with the provisions of Section 6(b) of the Act,10 in general, and Section 6(b)(5) of the Act,11 in particular, in that it is designed to promote just and equitable principles of trade and to remove impediments to, and perfect the mechanism of, a free and open market and a national market system and, generally, in that it protects investors and the public interest. The Exchange also believes that the proposal is consistent with the quoting restrictions of Rule 612 of Regulation NMS. B. Self-Regulatory Organization’s Statement on Burden on Competition The Exchange does not believe that the proposed rule change will impose any inappropriate burden on competition. C. Self-Regulatory Organization’s Statement on Comments on the Proposed Rule Change Received From Members, Participants, or Others The Exchange has neither solicited nor received written comments on the proposed rule change. III. Date of Effectiveness of the Proposed Rule Change and Timing for Commission Action Because the proposed rule change: (i) Does not significantly affect the protection of investors or the public interest; (ii) does not impose any significant burden on competition; and (iii) does not become operative for 30 days after the date of the filing, or such shorter time as the Commission may designate if consistent with the protection of investors and the public interest, the proposed rule change has become effective pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A) of the Act 12 and Rule 19b– 4(f)(6) thereunder.13 The Exchange has asked the Commission to waive the 3010 15 U.S.C. 78f(b). U.S.C. 78f(b)(5). 12 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A). 13 17 CFR 240.19b–4(f)(6). Pursuant to Rule 19b– 4(f)(6)(iii) under the Act, the Exchange is required to give the Commission written notice of its intent to file the proposed rule change, along with a brief description and text of the proposed rule change, at least five business days prior to the date of filing of the proposed rule change, or such shorter time as designated by the Commission. The Commission has determined to waive this requirement. erjones on PROD1PC68 with NOTICES 11 15 VerDate Aug<31>2005 15:23 Feb 06, 2006 Jkt 208001 day operative delay and allow the proposed rule change to become operative on January 31, 2006, the compliance date for Rule 612. The Commission hereby grants that request.14 The Commission believes that waiving the operative delay is consistent with the protection of investors and the public interest. The Commission previously has considered whether, for NMS stocks, quoting below $1.00 in sub-penny increments should be permitted. The Commission determined that it should and codified that view in Rule 612(b) of Regulation NMS.15 The Exchange’s proposal to permit its members to make bids or offers—in NMS stocks that are listed on Nasdaq—priced below $1.00 in increments as small as $0.0001 is consistent with Rule 612(b) and raises no new regulatory issues. At any time within 60 days of the filing of the 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.

Exchange Rule 715 is set forth below, with new text italicized: Rule 715 Monthly Payment and Reporting (a) Each member and member organization shall submit to the Exchange’s Controller, in such form as the Exchange may prescribe, a monthly report of net commissions on transactions, other than equity transactions, effected on the Floor of the Exchange during the preceding month together with a check payable to the Exchange for the appropriate fee. Said reports and fees must be received by the Exchange on or before the 28th calendar day following the month covered by the report, unless the Exchange is not open for business on such day, in which event the report is to be filed and the fees are to be paid on the next business day.

The Phlx has prepared summaries, set forth in Sections A, B, and C below, of the most significant aspects of such statements. 3 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A). 4 17 CFR 240.19b–4(f)(1). VerDate Aug<31>2005 15:23 Feb 06, 2006 Jkt 208001 A. Self-Regulatory Organization’s Statement of the Purpose of, and Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change 1. Purpose The purpose of amending Exchange Rule 715 is to update this rule to reflect that monthly reports of net commissions are no longer required to be submitted in connection with equity transactions. This clarification should help avoid any member confusion as it relates to the floor brokerage assessment. No fee changes are being made pursuant to this proposal. Previously, the Exchange adopted a monthly fee of $250 for each member who derives his/her primary income from floor brokerage business conducted on the equity floor of the Exchange and eliminated the equity floor brokerage assessment fee of five percent of net floor brokerage income.5 The Exchange waived the equity floor brokerage assessment and implemented the flat monthly fee of $250 to encourage floor brokers to send additional order flow to the Exchange and to simplify Phlx accounting procedures and billing. Thus, because the equity floor brokerage assessment is no longer based on net commissions, equity floor members do not need to submit monthly reports of net commissions, as required by Exchange Rule 715. Equity option and index option members and foreign currency participants, however, are still required to submit monthly reports because their floor brokerage assessment continues to be imposed based on monthly net floor brokerage income. 2. Statutory Basis The Exchange believes that its proposal is consistent with Section 6(b) of the Act 6 in general, and furthers the objectives of Section 6(b)(5) of the Act 7 in particular, in that it should help to foster cooperation and coordination with persons engaged in the regulating, clearing, settling, processing information with respect to and facilitating transactions in securities by clarifying that a floor brokerage assessment form is not required to be completed in connection with the assessment of the flat monthly fee of $250. B. Self-Regulatory Organization’s Statement on Burden on Competition The Phlx believes that the proposed rule change will not impose any burden 5 See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 49057 (January 12, 2004), 69 FR 2808 (January 20, 2004) (SR–Phlx–2003–83). 6 15 U.S.C. 78f(b). 7 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5).

Self-Regulatory Organization’s Statement on Comments on the Proposed Rule Change Received From Members, Participants, or Others The Phlx has neither solicited nor received comments on the proposed rule change. III. Date of Effectiveness of the Proposed Rule Change and Timing for Commission Action The foregoing rule change has become effective upon filing pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A) of the Act 8 and Rule 19b– 4(f)(1) thereunder 9 because it constitutes a stated policy, practice or interpretation with respect to the meaning, administration, or enforcement of an existing rule. At any time within 60 days of the filing of the 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.10 IV.

If you want the FAA to acknowledge receipt of your comments on this proposal, include with your comments a pre-addressed, stamped postcard on which the docket number appears. We will stamp the date on the postcard and mail it to you. The Proposal On January 13, 2005, Mr. John W. Hazlet, Jr., Vice President of Flight, Ameriflight, Inc. (Ameriflight) petitioned the FAA for relief from § 119.3 of Title 14, Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) to allow Ameriflight to operate certain EMBRAER Brasilia EMB–120 (EMB– 120) airplanes with a maximum payload capacity greater than 7,500 pounds in all-cargo service under part 135 rather than part 121. This petition was denied on February 4, 2005, because Ameriflight sought to comply with certain sections of part 121 instead of complying with all the applicable sections of 121. In addition, Ameriflight did not show how its situation was different from the general class of regulated entities. On March 22, and April 5, 2005, Ameriflight petitioned the FAA for a reconsideration of Denial of Exemption No. 8480. The FAA has reconsidered its position and is considering granting Ameriflight’s petition. The FAA is publishing the text of this proposed grant for comment because the increase in the payload capacity for all-cargo operations is a change to the basic applicability standards contained in part 119 and could potentially have broader applicability to other all-cargo operations. Further, the part 125/135 Aviation Rulemaking Committee (ARC) has submitted a recommendation on this subject. That recommendation has broader applicability and higher payload capacity limits than proposed by Ameriflight. The ARC recommendation is currently under consideration by the FAA for general rulemaking action. Although elements of the ARC’s recommendation were considered in the FAA’s analysis of this petition, the FAA’s decision to grant this exemption is based solely on the merits of Ameriflight’s petition. The entire content of the proposed grant of exemption, including the FAA’s analysis and conditions and limitations of the grant follows: E:\FR\FM\07FEN1.SGM 07FEN1

report, unless the Exchange is not open for business on such day, in 
which event the report is to be filed and the fees are to be paid on 
the next business day.

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 Phlx included statements 
concerning the purpose of, and basis for, the proposed rule change and 
discussed any comments it received on the proposal. The text of these 
statements may be examined at the places specified in Item IV below. 
The Phlx 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 purpose of amending Exchange Rule 715 is to update this rule to 
reflect that monthly reports of net commissions are no longer required 
to be submitted in connection with equity transactions. This 
clarification should help avoid any member confusion as it relates to 
the floor brokerage assessment. No fee changes are being made pursuant 
to this proposal.
    Previously, the Exchange adopted a monthly fee of $250 for each 
member who derives his/her primary income from floor brokerage business 
conducted on the equity floor of the Exchange and eliminated the equity 
floor brokerage assessment fee of five percent of net floor brokerage 
income.\5\ The Exchange waived the equity floor brokerage assessment 
and implemented the flat monthly fee of $250 to encourage floor brokers 
to send additional order flow to the Exchange and to simplify Phlx 
accounting procedures and billing. Thus, because the equity floor 
brokerage assessment is no longer based on net commissions, equity 
floor members do not need to submit monthly reports of net commissions, 
as required by Exchange Rule 715. Equity option and index option 
members and foreign currency participants, however, are still required 
to submit monthly reports because their floor brokerage assessment 
continues to be imposed based on monthly net floor brokerage income.

2004), 69 FR 2808 (January 20, 2004) (SR-Phlx-2003-83).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

2. Statutory Basis
    The Exchange believes that its proposal is consistent with Section 
6(b) of the Act \6\ in general, and furthers the objectives of Section 
6(b)(5) of the Act \7\ in particular, in that it should help to foster 
cooperation and coordination with persons engaged in the regulating, 
clearing, settling, processing information with respect to and 
facilitating transactions in securities by clarifying that a floor 
brokerage assessment form is not required to be completed in connection 
with the assessment of the flat monthly fee of $250.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

B. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Burden on Competition

    The Phlx believes that the proposed rule change will not impose any 
burden on competition that is not necessary or appropriate in 
furtherance of the purposes of the Act, as amended.

C. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Comments on the Proposed 
Rule Change Received From Members, Participants, or Others

    The Phlx has neither solicited nor received comments on the 
proposed rule change.

III. Date of Effectiveness of the Proposed Rule Change and Timing for 
Commission Action

    The foregoing rule change has become effective upon filing pursuant 
to Section 19(b)(3)(A) of the Act \8\ and Rule 19b-4(f)(1) thereunder 
\9\ because it constitutes a stated policy, practice or interpretation 
with respect to the meaning, administration, or enforcement of an 
existing rule. At any time within 60 days of the filing of the 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.\10\
