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 Exchange proposes to implement revised liquidity credits for Supplemental Liquidity Providers (‘‘SLPs’’). The text of the proposed rule change is available at the Exchange, the Commission’s Public Reference Room, and https://www.nyse.com. 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. 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 15 2 17 PO 00000 U.S.C. 78s(b)(1). CFR 240.19b–4. Frm 00099 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 The Exchange proposes to modify the credits received by supplemental liquidity providers (‘‘SLPs’’) when adding liquidity to the Exchange, with effect from April 1, 2009. Currently, SLPs receive a credit of $0.0015 per share when adding liquidity to the NYSE if the SLP meets the 3% average or more quoting requirement in an assigned security pursuant to Rule 107B. With effect from April 1, 2009, there will be three separate tiers of credits for SLPs that meet the 3% average or more quoting requirement in an assigned security pursuant to Rule 107B: • SLPs that add liquidity of an average daily volume (‘‘ADV’’) 3 of 100 million shares or less in the applicable month will continue to receive a credit of $0.0015 per share when adding liquidity to the NYSE. • SLPs that add liquidity of an ADV of between 100 million shares and 250 million shares in the applicable month will receive a credit of $0.0016 per share when adding liquidity to the NYSE. • SLPs that add liquidity of an ADV of more than 250 million shares in the applicable month will receive a credit of $0.0017 per share when adding liquidity to the NYSE. 2. Statutory Basis The Exchange believes that the proposed rule change is consistent with the provisions of Section 6 of the Act,4 in general, and Section 6(b)(4) of the Act,5 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. 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. 3 Qualification for the different tiers of liquidity credits will be based on the SLP’s aggregate average daily trading volume in the applicable month in all NYSE listed securities. See e-mail from John Carey, Chief Counsel—U.S. Equities, NYSE Euronext, to Nathan Saunders, Special Counsel, and Brian O’Neill, Attorney, Division of Trading and Markets, Commission, dated April 2, 2009. 4 15 U.S.C. 78f(b). 5 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(4).
