Colorado Disaster # CO-00021, 31729 [E8-12356]

Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 73, No. 107 / Tuesday, June 3, 2008 / Notices May 16, 2008, OPRA submitted a revised version of Exhibit I to its proposed Plan Amendment.5 This order approves the proposed OPRA Plan amendment. II. Description of the Proposal OPRA’s current form of Vendor Agreement authorizes only the Vendor itself, and not any of its affiliates, to disseminate OPRA Data. As a matter of policy, OPRA has permitted Vendors to disseminate OPRA Data through whollyowned subsidiaries. However, OPRA has not permitted Vendors to disseminate OPRA Data through other affiliates that have not themselves signed Vendor Agreements with OPRA. Many Vendors conduct business through corporate families, for a variety of reasons. OPRA requires each OPRA Vendor to pay a monthly ‘‘Redistribution Fee,’’ 6 and OPRA has from time to time received requests to alleviate the financial consequence that OPRA’s current policy imposes on some Vendor families. Accordingly, OPRA is proposing to amend its Fee Schedule to provide that OPRA will waive its Redistribution Fee for Vendor affiliates that themselves become Vendors pursuant to ‘‘Vendor Affiliate Agreements,’’ and is proposing to adopt a new form of ‘‘Vendor Affiliate Agreement.’’ In effect, the form of Vendor Affiliate Agreement is a ‘‘short form’’ Vendor Agreement that can be signed by an additional member of a Vendor’s corporate family. The proposed form would require the additional member of a corporate family to acknowledge that it is subject to and bound by the terms of the ‘‘lead’’ Vendor’s Vendor Agreement just as if it had signed the Agreement itself. The proposed form is designed so that it can be used by affiliates of a current OPRA Vendor without any need for the current Vendor to sign a new Vendor Agreement.7 III. Discussion After careful review, the Commission finds that the proposed OPRA Plan amendment is consistent with the requirements of the Act and the rules ebenthall on PRODPC60 with NOTICES 5 The revised Exhibit I made merely technical changes to the original Exhibit I and therefore need not be published for comment. 6 OPRA’s Redistribution Fee is currently $650/ month for ‘‘Internet service only’’ Vendors, and $1,500/month for all other Vendors. 7 However, the current Vendor (or a new ‘‘lead’’ Vendor) would be required to identify its affiliate(s) that will sign Vendor Affiliate Agreements in its ‘‘Description of Vendor’s Service’’—Exhibit A to its Vendor Agreement—as in effect from time to time. The lead Vendor would also be required to describe the dissemination of OPRA Data by such affiliate(s) in its Exhibit A. VerDate Aug<31>2005 14:18 Jun 02, 2008 Jkt 214001 and regulations thereunder.8 Specifically, the Commission finds that the proposed OPRA Plan amendment is consistent with section 11A of the Act 9 and Rule 608 thereunder 10 in that it is appropriate in the public interest, for the protection of investors and the maintenance of fair and orderly markets, and to remove impediments to, and perfect the mechanism of, a national market system. OPRA’s Vendor Agreement governs the terms and conditions under which vendors redistribute options market data to subscribers and other end users of the information. The Commission finds that OPRA’s proposal to adopt a new form of Vendor Affiliate Agreement and to waive its Redistribution Fee for an affiliate of an OPRA Vendor should facilitate distribution of OPRA Data through OPRA Vendors who conduct business within a corporate family. Therefore, the Commission believes that OPRA’s proposal is consistent with section 11A of the Act 11 and the Rule 608 thereunder.12 IV. Conclusion It is therefore ordered, pursuant to section 11A of the Act,13 and Rule 608 thereunder,14 that the proposed OPRA Plan amendment (SR–OPRA–2008–01) be, and it hereby is, approved. For the Commission, by the Division of Trading and Markets, pursuant to delegated authority.15 Florence E. Harmon, Acting Secretary. [FR Doc.
