liquidity to the Book in securities for
which the Market Makers are registered
as Market Makers. The Exchange
proposes this language so that the
application of this credit is consistent
with the application of the credit for
Market Makers and other ETP Holders
executing round-lot transactions in
NYSE-listed securities.
The Fee Schedule currently does not
specifically set forth a fee for Market
Maker round-lot transactions in NYSElisted securities, other listed securities
or Nasdaq securities that take liquidity
from the Book. The Exchange proposes
to amend the Fee Schedule to set forth
a $.003 per share fee for all such orders.
The Exchange proposes this change so
that it is clear that Market Makers are
subject to the same $.003 per share fee
that is charged to all ETP Holders
executing round-lot transactions in
NYSE-listed securities, other listed
securities, and Nasdaq securities that
take liquidity from the Book.
Market Maker Transaction Fees and
Credits—Odd Lots. The Fee Schedule
currently provides that Market Makers
are entitled to a $0.02 per share credit
for transactions in Nasdaq securities
that execute against odd-lot orders in
the Odd Lot Tracking Order Process, as
defined in NYSE Arca Equities Rule
7.31(g). The Exchange proposes to
eliminate this credit because the
Exchange no longer wishes to provide
the additional financial incentive to
Market Makers for providing liquidity in
Nasdaq odd-lot transactions.
Lead Market Maker Transaction Fees
and Credits—Odd Lots. The Fee
Schedule currently provides that Lead
Market Makers 7 executing odd-lot
transactions in NYSE Arca Marketplace
primary listed securities are entitled to
a $0.02 per share credit for such
transactions. The Exchange proposes to
amend the Fee Schedule to clarify that
such credit applies to orders that
provide liquidity to the Book in
securities for which the Lead Market
Maker is registered as the Lead Market
Maker. The Exchange proposes this
change in order to make the application
of this credit consistent with the
application of the transaction credits to
Market Makers and ETP Holders
generally.
2. Statutory Basis
The Exchange believes that the
proposed rule change is consistent

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

B. Self-Regulatory Organization’s

any burden on competition that is not
necessary or appropriate in furtherance
of the purposes of the Act.

in Items I, II and III below, which Items
have been prepared by the Exchange.
On October 26, 2006, the Exchange filed
Amendment No. 1. The Exchange has
designated this proposed rule change as
one establishing or changing a member
due, fee, or other charge imposed by the
Exchange under Section 19(b)(3)(A)(ii)
of the Act 3 and Rule 19b–4(f)(2)
thereunder,4 which renders the
proposed rule change effective upon
filing with the Commission. The
Commission is publishing this notice to
solicit comments on the proposed rule
change, as amended, from interested
persons.
I. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement of the Terms of Substance of
the Proposed Rule Change
The Exchange proposes to amend the
section of its Schedule of Fees and
Charges for Exchange Services (‘‘Fee
Schedule’’) that applies to certain ETP
Holder 5 transaction credits and market
data revenue sharing credits. While
changes to the Fee Schedule pursuant to
this proposed rule change are effective
upon filing with the Commission, the
new rates will become operative on
October 9, 2006. The text of the
proposed rule change is available on the
Exchange’s Web site at https://
www.nysearca.com, at the Exchange’s
Office of the Secretary, and in 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
Exchange included statements
concerning the purpose of and basis for
the proposed rule change and discussed
any comments it received on the
proposed rule change, as amended. 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
aspects of such statements.
type, the Passive Liquidity Order,6 into
the Fee Schedule in the same manner as
Tracking Orders. While changes to the
Fee Schedule pursuant to this proposed
rule change are effective upon filing
with the Commission, the new rates will
become operative on October 9, 2006.
The Fee Schedule currently provides
in footnote 5 that Tracking Orders will
not be eligible for ETP Holder
transaction credits. The Exchange
proposes to amend footnote 5 to the Fee
Schedule to provide that Passive
Liquidity Orders also will not be eligible
for ETP Holder transaction credits.
The Fee Schedule currently provides
in footnote 6 that an ETP Holder that
submits a Tracking Order instruction
that subsequently matches against an
inbound marketable order will not be
entitled to receive the Liquidity
Provider Credit. The Exchange proposes
to amend footnote 6 to the Fee Schedule
to provide that an ETP Holder
submitting a Passive Liquidity Order
instruction also will not be entitled to
receive the Liquidity Provider Credit.
The Exchange is not providing credits
to ETP Holders entering Passive
Liquidity Orders because it has no
reason at this time to create incentives
for the entry of such orders.7
2. Statutory Basis
The Exchange believes that the
proposed rule change is consistent with
Section 6(b) of the Act,8 in general, and
furthers the objectives of Section 6(b)(4)
of the Act,9 in particular, in that it
provides for the equitable allocation of
reasonable dues, fees and other charges
among its members and other persons
using its facilities.
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.

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 Exchange included statements
concerning the purpose of and basis for the proposed rule change and
discussed any comments it received on the proposed rule change, as
amended. 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 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 Exchange proposes to amend the section of the Fee Schedule that
applies to certain ETP Holder transaction credits and market data
revenue sharing credits in order to incorporate the Exchange's recently
approved new order type, the Passive Liquidity Order,\6\ into the Fee
Schedule in the same manner as Tracking Orders. While changes to the
Fee Schedule pursuant to this proposed rule change are effective upon
filing with the Commission, the new rates will become operative on
October 9, 2006.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\6\ The Commission recently approved the use of Passive
Liquidity Orders on the NYSE Arca Marketplace. See Securities
Exchange Act Release No. 54511 (September 26, 2006), 71 FR 58460
(October 3, 2006)(SR-PCX-2005-53).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Fee Schedule currently provides in footnote 5 that Tracking
Orders will not be eligible for ETP Holder transaction credits. The
Exchange proposes to amend footnote 5 to the Fee Schedule to provide
that Passive Liquidity Orders also will not be eligible for ETP Holder
transaction credits.
The Fee Schedule currently provides in footnote 6 that an ETP
Holder that submits a Tracking Order instruction that subsequently
matches against an inbound marketable order will not be entitled to
receive the Liquidity Provider Credit. The Exchange proposes to amend
footnote 6 to the Fee Schedule to provide that an ETP Holder submitting
a Passive Liquidity Order instruction also will not be entitled to
receive the Liquidity Provider Credit.
The Exchange is not providing credits to ETP Holders entering
Passive Liquidity Orders because it has no reason at this time to
create incentives for the entry of such orders.\7\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\7\ Amendment No. 1.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
2. Statutory Basis
The Exchange believes that the proposed rule change is consistent
with Section 6(b) of the Act,\8\ in general, and furthers the
objectives of Section 6(b)(4) of the Act,\9\ in particular, in that it
provides for the equitable allocation of reasonable dues, fees and
other charges among its members and other persons using its facilities.

\8\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b).
\9\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(4).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
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.
C. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Comments on the Proposed
Rule Change Received From Members, Participants, or Others
Written comments on the proposed rule change were neither solicited
nor received.
III. Date of Effectiveness of the Proposed Rule Change and Timing for
Commission Action
The foregoing proposed rule change has become effective pursuant to
section Section 19(b)(3)(A)(ii) of the Act \10\ and subparagraph (f)(2)
of Rule 19b-4 thereunder \11\ because it establishes or changes a
member due, fee, or other charge imposed by the self-regulatory
organization. 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.\12\
