calculated or available; or (3) such other
event occurs or condition exists that in
the opinion of the Exchange makes
further dealing on the Exchange
inadvisable. Additionally, the Fund
Shares shall not be deemed to meet the
requirements for continued approval,
and the Exchange shall not open for
trading any additional series of option
contracts of the class covering such
Multiple Fund Shares or Inverse Fund
Shares, if the Shares are halted from
trading on their primary market or if the
Shares are delisted in accordance with
the terms of Amex Rule 916 or the value
of the index or portfolio on which the
Shares are based is no longer calculated
or available.
The expansion of the types of
investments that may be held by
Multiple Fund Shares or Inverse Fund
Shares under Commentary .06 to Amex
Rule 915 will not have any effect on the
rules pertaining to position and exercise
limits 6 or margin.7
This proposal is necessary to enable
the Exchange to list and trade options
on the shares of the Ultra Fund, Short
Fund and UltraShort Fund of the
ProShares Trust.8 We believe the ability
to trade options on Multiple and Inverse
Fund Shares will provide investors with
greater risk management tools. The
proposed amendment to the Exchange’s
listing criteria for options on Exchange
Traded Fund Shares is necessary to
ensure that the Exchange will be able to
list options on the Funds of the
ProShares Trust as well as other
Multiple Fund Shares or Inverse Fund
Shares that may be introduced in the
future.
The Exchange in this proposal also
seeks to add ‘‘reverse repurchase
agreements’’ within the rule text of
Amex Rule 1000A–AEMI(b)(2)(ii) in
order to correct the definition of
Financial Instruments.
The Exchange represents that its
existing surveillance procedures
applicable to trading in options are
adequate to properly monitor the
trading in Multiple Fund Shares options
and Inverse Fund Shares options.
2. Statutory Basis
The proposed rule change is
consistent with Section 6(b) of the Act,9
in general, and furthers the objectives of
Section 6(b)(5) of the Act,10 in
particular, in that it is designed to
prevent fraudulent and manipulative
acts and practices, to promote just and

substantially prepared by the CBOE.
The CBOE has filed the proposed rule
change as one establishing or changing
a 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
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 CBOE proposes to amend its
Order Routing System (‘‘ORS’’) order
cancellation fee. The text of the
proposed rule change is available at
CBOE, the Commission’s Public
Reference Room, and https://
www.cboe.org/legal.
II. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement of the Purpose of, and

In its filing with the Commission, the
CBOE 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 CBOE 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
mstockstill on PROD1PC66 with NOTICES
The CBOE currently assesses an
executing clearing member $1 for each
cancelled ORS order in excess of the
number of orders that the executing
clearing member executes in a month
for a customer or for itself. The purpose
of the fee is to ease order backlogs on
ORS. The fee is not charged if less than
500 ORS orders are cancelled in the
month. The following ORS cancellation
activity is exempt from the fee: (i)
Cancelled ORS orders that improve the
Exchange’s prevailing bid-offer (BBO)
market when received; and (ii) fill and

2. Statutory Basis
The proposed rule change is
consistent with Section 6(b) of the Act 5,
in general, and furthers the objectives of
Section 6(b)(4) 6 of the Act in particular,
in that it is designed to provide for the
equitable allocation of reasonable dues,
fees, and other charges among CBOE
members and other persons using its
facilities.
B. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement on Burden on Competition
1. Purpose
3 15
The Exchange proposes three changes
to the fee. First, the Exchange proposes
to calculate the fee by counting only
public customer (non-broker-dealer)
orders. The Exchange believes this
change is appropriate since public
customer orders in many products
traded on the Exchange are not assessed
transaction fees while all non-customer
orders pay transaction fees, which helps
offset cancellation costs.
Second, the Exchange proposes to
aggregate and count as one executed
order for purposes of the fee, all public
customer options orders from the same
executing clearing member for itself or
for a correspondent firm that are
executed in the same series on the same
side of the market at the same price
within a 30 second period. This
proposed change is intended to
discourage firms from entering and
executing multiple small orders to offset
the cancellation of larger orders for
purposes of avoiding the fee.
Third, the Exchange proposes to
increase the fee from $1.25 to $1.50 per
cancelled ORS order.
The proposed ORS order cancellation
fee is similar to the cancellation fee of
the International Securities Exchange.
The Exchange intends to implement the
proposed fee change on August 1, 2007.
CBOE does not believe that the
proposed rule change will impose any
burden on competition that is not
necessary or appropriate in furtherance
of purposes of the Act.
C. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement on Comments on the
Proposed Rule Change Received From
Members, Participants or Others
No written comments were solicited
or received with respect to the proposed
rule change.
III. Date of Effectiveness of the
Proposed Rule Change and Timing for
Commission Action

change establishes or changes a due, fee,

pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A) of the
Act 7 and Rule 19b–4(f)(2) 8 thereunder.
At any time within 60 days of the filing
of the proposed rule change the
Commission may summarily abrogate
such proposed rule change if it appears
to the Commission that such action is
necessary or appropriate in the public
interest, for the protection of investors,

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.
1. Purpose
The Exchange proposes to amend
Section 703.22(B)(II)(1)(b) and Section
703.22(B)(III)(1)(b) of the Manual to
permit the listing and trading of
Commodity-Linked Securities and
Currency-Linked Securities,
respectively, where the underlying
Commodity Reference Asset 3 or
Currency Reference Asset,4 as the case
may be, may include components
representing not more than 10% of the
dollar weight of such Commodity
Reference Asset or Currency Reference
Asset, for which the pricing information
is derived from markets which do not
meet the general requirements of the
respective rule, as described below. In
addition, the Exchange proposes that no
single component of a Commodity
Reference Asset or Currency Reference
Asset, as the case may be, subject to the
foregoing proposed exception may
exceed 7% of the dollar weight of such
Commodity Reference Asset or Currency
Reference Asset.
Under Section 703.22(B)(II)(1) of the
Manual, an issuance of CommodityLinked Securities currently cannot be
listed unless either:
• The Commodity Reference Asset to
which the security is linked shall have
been reviewed and approved for the
trading of Commodity Trust Shares or
options or other derivatives by the
Commission under Section 19(b)(2) 5 of
3 Commodity Reference Asset is defined as one or
more physical commodities or commodity futures,
options or other commodity derivatives or
Commodity Trust Shares (as defined in NYSE Rule
1300B) or a basket or index of any of the foregoing.
See Section 703.22 of the Manual.
4 Currency Reference Asset is defined as one or
more currencies, options or currency futures or
other currency derivatives or Currency Trust Shares
(as defined in NYSE Rule 1300A) or a basket or
index of any of the foregoing. See id.
5 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(2).

the Act and rules thereunder and the
conditions set forth in the Commission’s
approval order, including with respect
to comprehensive surveillance sharing
agreements (‘‘CSSAs’’), continue to be
satisfied; or
• The pricing information for each
component of a Commodity Reference
Asset is derived from a market which is
an Intermarket Surveillance Group
(‘‘ISG’’) member or affiliate or with
which the Exchange has a CSSA.
Notwithstanding the previous sentence,
pricing information for gold and silver
may be derived from the London
Bullion Market Association.
Similarly, under Section
703.22(B)(III)(1) of the Manual, an
issuance of Currency-Linked Securities
currently cannot be listed unless either:
• The Currency Reference Asset to
which the security is linked shall have
been reviewed and approved for the
trading of Currency Trust Shares or
options or other derivatives by the
Commission under Section 19(b)(2) of
the Act and rules thereunder and the
conditions set forth in the Commission’s
approval order, including with respect
to CSSAs, continue to be satisfied; or
• The pricing information for each
component of a Currency Reference
Asset must be (1) the generally accepted
spot price for the currency exchange
rate in question or (2) derived from a
market which is (a) an ISG member or
affiliate or with which the Exchange has
a CSSA and (b) the pricing source for
components of a Currency Reference
Asset that has previously been approved
by the Commission.
The Exchange proposes to amend the
requirements as to the source of pricing
information for components of
Commodity-Linked Securities and
Currency-Linked Securities so as to
permit the listing of such securities
where a maximum of 10% of the dollar
weight of the Commodity Reference
Asset or Currency Reference Asset, as
the case may be, is made up of
components that do not meet the
respective general pricing information
requirements. In addition, the Exchange
proposes that no single component
subject to the proposed exception may
exceed 7% of the dollar weight of the
Commodity Reference Asset or Currency
Reference Asset, as the case may be.
The Exchange states that many
commodity and currency markets are
not members or affiliates of ISG, and the
Exchange frequently experiences
difficulty entering into CSSAs with such
markets. The Exchange believes that its
surveillance procedures are not
materially hampered as long as it has
access to trading information of
underlying components that constitute

cancellation fee. The text of the proposed rule change is available at
CBOE, the Commission's Public Reference Room, and https://www.cboe.org/

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 CBOE 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 CBOE 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 CBOE currently assesses an executing clearing member $1 for
each cancelled ORS order in excess of the number of orders that the
executing clearing member executes in a month for a customer or for
itself. The purpose of the fee is to ease order backlogs on ORS. The
fee is not charged if less than 500 ORS orders are cancelled in the
month. The following ORS cancellation activity is exempt from the fee:
(i) Cancelled ORS orders that improve the Exchange's prevailing bid-
offer (BBO) market when received; and (ii) fill and cancellation
activity occurring within the first one minute of trading following the
opening of each option class.
The Exchange proposes three changes to the fee. First, the Exchange
proposes to calculate the fee by counting only public customer (non-
broker-dealer) orders. The Exchange believes this change is appropriate
since public customer orders in many products traded on the Exchange
are not assessed transaction fees while all non-customer orders pay
transaction fees, which helps offset cancellation costs.
Second, the Exchange proposes to aggregate and count as one
executed order for purposes of the fee, all public customer options
orders from the same executing clearing member for itself or for a
correspondent firm that are executed in the same series on the same
side of the market at the same price within a 30 second period. This
proposed change is intended to discourage firms from entering and
executing multiple small orders to offset the cancellation of larger
orders for purposes of avoiding the fee.
Third, the Exchange proposes to increase the fee from $1.25 to
$1.50 per cancelled ORS order.
The proposed ORS order cancellation fee is similar to the
cancellation fee of the International Securities Exchange. The Exchange
intends to implement the proposed fee change on August 1, 2007.
2. Statutory Basis
The proposed rule change is consistent with Section 6(b) of the Act
\5\, in general, and furthers the objectives of Section 6(b)(4) \6\ of
the Act in particular, in that it is designed to provide for the
equitable allocation of reasonable dues, fees, and other charges among
CBOE members and other persons using its facilities.

B. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Burden on Competition
CBOE does not believe that the proposed rule change will impose any
burden on competition that is not necessary or appropriate in
furtherance of purposes of the Act.
C. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Comments on the Proposed
Rule Change Received From Members, Participants or Others
No written comments were solicited or received with respect to the
proposed rule change.
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) of the Act \7\ and Rule 19b-
4(f)(2) \8\ thereunder. At any time within 60 days of the filing of the
proposed rule change the Commission may summarily abrogate such
proposed 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.
