to delete Rule 2.11 and renumbering
Rule 2.12); (ii) use the Exchange’s
original approach of NSX Securities as
an outbound router and discontinue the
approach provided for in Rule 2.12 (by
filing a proposed rule change to delete
Rule 2.12); or (iii) file a proposed rule
change to allow ETP Holders to use
either NSX Securities or the approach
provided for in proposed Rule 2.12 for
outbound routing.
2. Statutory Basis
NSX believes the proposed rule
change is consistent with Section 6(b) of
the Act,10 in general, and furthers the
objectives of Section 6(b)(5) of the Act,11
in particular, 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 a national market system, and, in
general, to protect investors and the
public interest.
B. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement on Burden on Competition
4(f)(6)(iii) 15 permits the Commission to
designate a shorter time if such action
is consistent with the protection of
investors and the public interest. The
Exchange has requested that the
Commission waive the 30-day operative
delay. The Commission believes that
waiving the 30-day operative delay is
consistent with the protection of
investors and the public interest
because such waiver would permit the
Exchange to immediately update the
effective dates for NSX Rules 2.11 and
2.12. For this reason, the Commission
designates the proposed rule change to
be operative upon filing with the
Commission.16
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
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
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.
Comments may be submitted by any of
the following methods:
Electronic Comments
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 rule change
does not: (1) Significantly affect the
protection of investors or the public
interest; (2) impose any significant
burden on competition; and (3) become
operative for 30 days after the date of
this filing, or such shorter time as the
Commission may designate, it has
become effective pursuant to Section
19(b)(3)(A) of the Act 12 and Rule 19b–
4(f)(6) thereunder.13
A proposed rule change filed under
19b–4(f)(6) normally may not become
operative prior to 30 days after the date
of filing.14 However, Rule 19b–

2007, the New York Stock Exchange
LLC (‘‘NYSE’’ or ‘‘Exchange’’) filed with
the Securities and Exchange
Commission (‘‘Commission’’) the
proposed rule change as described in
Items I, II, and III below, which Items

proposal as one establishing or changing
a due, fee, or other charge imposed by
the NYSE under Section 19(b)(3)(A)(ii)
of the Act,3 and Rule 19b–4(f)(2)
thereunder,4 which renders the proposal
effective upon filing with the
Commission. The Commission is
publishing this notice to solicit
comments on the proposed rule change
from interested persons.
I. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement of the Terms of Substance of
the Proposed Rule Change
The NYSE proposes to charge its
member organizations a fee of $0.0025
per share in equity transactions and
$0.0030 per share in transactions in
exchange traded fund (‘‘ETF’’) securities
where those orders are executed in
another market on the Exchange’s behalf
by Archipelago Securities LLC (‘‘Arca
Securities’’) as a routing broker. The text
of the proposed rule change is available
on the NYSE’s Web site (https://
www.nyse.com), at the principal office
of the NYSE, and at 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
NYSE included statements concerning
the purpose of, and basis for, the
proposed rule change and discussed any
comments it received on the proposed
rule change. The text of these statements
may be examined at the places specified
in Item IV below. The NYSE has
prepared summaries, set forth in
Sections A, B, and C below, of the most
significant aspects of such statements.
cprice-sewell on PROD1PC66 with NOTICES
A. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement of the Purpose of, and
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule
Change
1. Purpose
The Exchange proposes to charge its
member organizations a fee of $0.0025
per share in equity transactions (the
‘‘Equity Routing Fee’’) and $0.0030 per
share in ETF transactions (the ‘‘ETF
Routing Fee,’’ and, together with the
Equity Routing Fee, the ‘‘Routing Fees’’)
where those orders are executed in
another market on the Exchange’s behalf
by Arca Securities as a routing broker.
The Exchange proposes to set the
Routing Fees at the same level as
linkage order fees (‘‘Linkage Order
Fees’’) that the Exchange has been
charging for transactions routed away to
other markets pursuant to the ‘‘Plan for
3 15
4 17
the Purpose of Creating and Operating
an Intermarket Communications
Linkage’’ (the ‘‘Linkage Plan’’). The
Linkage Plan expired by its terms on
June 30, 2007, and the Exchange will
now route all orders it is required to
send to other markets by utilizing Arca
Securities as a routing broker. This
filing clarifies that, once the Linkage
Plan is no longer in effect, Entering
Firms will continue to be charged a
Routing Fee in the same amount as the
predecessor Linkage Order Fee for
orders routed to other markets. Arca
Securities will be billed by the
destination markets for orders entered
on the Exchange by Entering Firms but
routed to other markets for execution.
The Exchange will assume
responsibility for fees paid by Arca
Securities to other markets in its
capacity as the Exchange’s Routing
Broker. The Exchange proposes to bill
each Entering Firm the applicable
Routing Fee in order to recover these
expenses.
2. Statutory Basis
The Exchange believes that the
proposed rule change is consistent with
the objectives of Section 6 5 of the Act 6
in general and furthers the objectives of
Section 6(b)(4) 7 in particular, in that it
is designed to provide for the equitable
allocation of reasonable dues, fees and
other charges among its members and
other persons using its facilities. The fee
is intended to permit the Exchange to
recover fees billed to Arca Securities by
other markets for orders executed in
other markets.
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 purpose of the Act.
C. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement on Comments on the
Proposed Rule Change Received From
Members, Participants or Others
Written comments were neither
solicited nor received.
III. Date of Effectiveness of the
Proposed Rule Change and Timing for
Commission Action
The foregoing rule change has become
effective pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A)
of the Act 8 and Rule 19b–4(f)(2) 9
thereunder because it involves a
U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A)(ii).

A. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement of the Purpose of, and
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule
Change
1. Purpose
On July 12, 2005, the Commission
approved the Pilot Program,5 which
allows NYSE Arca to list and trade One
Week Option Series. Under the terms of
the Pilot Program, the Exchange can
select up to five options classes on
which One Week Option Series may be
opened on any One Week Option
Opening Date. The Exchange is also
allowed to list One Week Option Series
on any option class that is selected by
other securities exchanges that employ
a similar Pilot Program under their
respective rules.
The Pilot Program currently expires
on July 12, 2007.6 The purpose of this
proposal is to extend the Pilot Program
for one year, through July 12, 2008. The
Exchange believes that the Pilot
Program provides investors with a
flexible and valuable tool to manage risk
exposure, minimize capital outlays, and
be more responsive to the timing of
events affecting the securities that
underlie option contracts. While NYSE
Arca has not listed any One Week
Option Series during the Pilot Program,
there has been investor interest in
trading short-term options at the
Chicago Board Options Exchange. In
order to have the ability to respond to
customer interest if warranted, the
Exchange proposes the continuation of
the Pilot Program at NYSE Arca.
In the original proposal to establish
the Pilot Program, the Exchange stated
that if it were to propose an extension
or an expansion of the program, the
Exchange would submit, along with any
filing proposing such amendments to

Statement of the Purpose of, and

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. 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.

the program, a Pilot Program report
(‘‘Report’’). The Report would provide
an analysis of the Pilot Program
covering the entire period during which
the Pilot Program was in effect. Since
the Exchange did not have any One
Week Option Series listed during the
preceding year of the Pilot Program,
there is no data available to compile
such a report at this time. Therefore,
there is no Report associated with the
program included with this proposal to
extend the pilot Program.
The Exchange represents that it has
the necessary system capacity needed to
support any additional option series
listed under the Pilot Program.
2. Statutory Basis
The Exchange believes that the One
Week Option Series can stimulate
customer interest in options and
provide a flexible and valuable tool to
manage risk exposure, minimize capital
outlays, and be more responsive to the
timing of events affecting the securities
that underlie option contracts. For these
reasons, the Exchange believes the
proposed rule change is consistent with
the requirements of Section 6(b) of the
Act 7 in general, and furthers the
objectives of Section 6(b)(5) of the Act 8
in particular, in that it is designed to
promote just and equitable principles of
trade, to prevent fraudulent and
manipulative acts, to remove
impediments to and perfect the
mechanism for a free and open market
and a national market system, and, in
general, to protect investors and the
public interest.

I. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Terms of Substance
of the Proposed Rule Change
The NYSE proposes to charge its member organizations a fee of
$0.0025 per share in equity transactions and $0.0030 per share in
transactions in exchange traded fund (``ETF'') securities where those
orders are executed in another market on the Exchange's behalf by
Archipelago Securities LLC (``Arca Securities'') as a routing broker.
The text of the proposed rule change is available on the NYSE's Web
site (https://www.nyse.com), at the principal office of the NYSE, and at
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 NYSE included statements
concerning the purpose of, and basis for, the proposed rule change and
discussed any comments it received on the proposed rule change. The
text of these statements may be examined at the places specified in
Item IV below. The NYSE 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 charge its member organizations a fee of
$0.0025 per share in equity transactions (the ``Equity Routing Fee'')
and $0.0030 per share in ETF transactions (the ``ETF Routing Fee,''
and, together with the Equity Routing Fee, the ``Routing Fees'') where
those orders are executed in another market on the Exchange's behalf by
Arca Securities as a routing broker.
The Exchange proposes to set the Routing Fees at the same level as
linkage order fees (``Linkage Order Fees'') that the Exchange has been
charging for transactions routed away to other markets pursuant to the
``Plan for the Purpose of Creating and Operating an Intermarket
Communications Linkage'' (the ``Linkage Plan''). The Linkage Plan
expired by its terms on June 30, 2007, and the Exchange will now route
all orders it is required to send to other markets by utilizing Arca
Securities as a routing broker. This filing clarifies that, once the
Linkage Plan is no longer in effect, Entering Firms will continue to be
charged a Routing Fee in the same amount as the predecessor Linkage
Order Fee for orders routed to other markets. Arca Securities will be
billed by the destination markets for orders entered on the Exchange by
Entering Firms but routed to other markets for execution. The Exchange
will assume responsibility for fees paid by Arca Securities to other
markets in its capacity as the Exchange's Routing Broker. The Exchange
proposes to bill each Entering Firm the applicable Routing Fee in order
to recover these expenses.
2. Statutory Basis
The Exchange believes that the proposed rule change is consistent
with the objectives of Section 6 \5\ of the Act \6\ in general and
furthers the objectives of Section 6(b)(4) \7\ in particular, in that
it is designed to provide for the equitable allocation of reasonable
dues, fees and other charges among its members and other persons using
its facilities. The fee is intended to permit the Exchange to recover
fees billed to Arca Securities by other markets for orders executed in
other markets.

B. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Burden on Competition
The Exchange does not believe that the proposed rule change will

in furtherance of the purpose of the Act.
C. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Comments on the Proposed
Rule Change Received From Members, Participants or Others
Written comments were neither solicited nor received.
III. Date of Effectiveness of the Proposed Rule Change and Timing for
Commission Action
The foregoing rule change has become effective pursuant to Section
19(b)(3)(A) of the Act \8\ and Rule 19b-4(f)(2) \9\ thereunder because
it involves a member fee imposed by the Exchange. 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
