fee is imposed on members and
participant organizations for individuals
who are employed by such member or
participant organizations and who work
on the Exchange’s trading floor, such as
clerks, interns, stock execution clerks
and other associated persons, but who
are not registered as members or
participants. The Exchange proposes to
increase this fee to offset the rising
occupancy costs associated with
operating a trading floor facility.
The Exchange also proposes to make
a minor amendment to its Fee Schedule
to amend the title of Section II of the Fee
Schedule. Currently that section is titled
Index Options Fees and the Exchange
proposes to amend that section title to
‘‘Sector Index Options Fees.’’ This title
would be amended in the Table of
Contents as well as in Section II of the
Fee Schedule. The Exchange believes
that the wording ‘‘Sector Index Options
Fees’’ is a more appropriate title for
these products.
2. Statutory Basis
The Exchange believes that its
proposal to amend its schedule of fees
is consistent with Section 6(b) of the
Act 5 in general, and furthers the
objectives of Section 6(b)(4) of the Act 6
in particular, in that it is an equitable
allocation of reasonable fees and other
charges among Exchange members. The
Exchange believes that the proposed
increases in fees to the associated
Trading/Administrative Booths and
Market Maker Trading Space, Floor
Facility and Trading Floor Personnel
fees are reasonable and the revenue will
assist the Exchange in defraying the
occupancy costs of maintaining the floor
facility for its members. The Specialist
Post fee should not result in a fee
increase for specialists. The Exchange
believes that because specialists pay
significantly more total transaction fees
on a monthly basis than similar fees
assessed on Register Options Traders
and floor brokers, the proposed fees are
reasonable. Finally, the Exchange
believes that the amendment to the title
of Section II is a proper title to identify
fees in the Fee Schedule.
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 not
necessary or appropriate in furtherance
of the purposes of the Act.

SBDC Services
A partnership exists between SBA
and an SBDC. SBDCs offer training,
counseling and other business
development assistance to small
businesses. Each SBDC provides
services under a negotiated Cooperative
Agreement with SBA, the general
management and oversight of SBA, and
a state plan initially approved by the
Governor. Non-Federal funds must
match Federal funds. An SBDC must
operate according to law, the
Cooperative Agreement, SBA’s
regulations, the annual Program
Announcement, and program guidance.
An SBDC must have a full range of
business development and technical
assistance services in its area of
operations, depending upon local needs,
SBA priorities and SBDC program
objectives. Services include training and
counseling to existing and prospective
small business owners in management,
marketing, finance, operations,
planning, taxes, and any other general
or technical area of assistance that
supports small business growth.
The SBA district office and the SBDC
must agree upon the specific mix of
services. They should give particular
attention to SBA’s priority and special
emphasis groups, including veterans,
women, exporters, the disabled, and
minorities.
Program Objectives
SBDC Program Requirements
The SBDC program uses Federal
funds to leverage the resources of states,
academic institutions and the private
sector to:
(a) Strengthen the small business
community;
(b) increase economic growth;
(c) assist more small businesses; and
(d) broaden the delivery system to
more small businesses.
An SBDC must meet programmatic
and financial requirements imposed by
statute, regulations or its Cooperative
Agreement. The SBDC must:
(a) Locate service centers so that they
are as accessible as possible to small
businesses;
(b) Open all service centers at least 40
hours per week, or during the normal
business hours of its state or academic
Host Organization, throughout the year;
