In addition, the Exchange currently charges a fee of $0.0035 per share with respect to all Tape B securities routed away and executed by another market center or participant. The Exchange now intends to introduce a new routing pricing tier for Tape B securities of $0.0029 per share if the ETP holder (i) transacts an average daily share volume per month greater than 20 million shares (including transactions that take liquidity, provide liquidity, or route to away market centers) and (ii) provides liquidity an average daily share volume per month greater than 5 million shares.

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)(ii) of the Act 8 and subparagraph (f)(2) of Rule 19b–4 thereunder 9 because it establishes or changes a due, fee, or other charge applicable only to a member imposed by the self-regulatory organization.
