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 those 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 parts of such
statements.
A. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement of the Purpose of, and
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule
Change
1. Purpose
The filing proposes to (i) eliminate
references in the fee schedule to
execution charges for inbound ‘‘Linkage
Orders’’ which only applied to the
execution of linkage orders under the
old linkage plan (which is no longer in
use); (ii) delete references to the old
linkage in footnote (6) regarding the
marketing fee; (iii) delete references to
the old linkage in footnote (14)
regarding a surcharge fee; and (iv)
eliminate Section 21 of the fee schedule
which provided for DPM linkage fee
credits under the old linkage plan.
2. Statutory Basis
The Exchange believes the proposed
rule change is consistent with the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the
‘‘Act’’) 5 and the rules and regulations
thereunder and, in particular, the
requirements of Section 6(b) of the Act.6
Specifically, the Exchange believes that
by simplifying the fee schedule to delete
outdated references, the proposed rule
change is consistent with the Section
6(b)(5) 7 requirements that the rules of
an exchange be designed to promote just
and equitable principles of trade, to
prevent fraudulent and manipulative
acts, to remove impediments to and to
perfect the mechanism for a free and
open market and a national market
system, and, in general, to protect
investors and the public interest.
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 not necessary or
appropriate in furtherance of the
purposes of the Act.

C. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement on Comments on the
Proposed Rule Change Received From
Members, Participants, or Others
The Exchange neither solicited nor
received comments on the proposal.
III. Date of Effectiveness of the
Proposed Rule Change and Timing for
Commission Action
Because the foregoing rule does not (i)
significantly affect the protection of
investors or the public interest; (ii)
impose any significant burden on
competition; and (iii) become operative
for 30 days from the date on which it
was filed, or such shorter time as the
Commission may designate if consistent
with the protection of investors and the
public interest, provided that the selfregulatory organization has given the
Commission written notice of its intent
to file the proposed rule change at least
five business days prior to the date of
filing of the proposed rule change or
such shorter time as designated by the
Commission, the proposed rule change
has become effective pursuant to
Section 19(b)(3)(A) of the Act 8 and Rule
19b–4(f)(6) thereunder.9 At any time
within 60 days of the filing of such
proposed rule change, the Commission
may summarily abrogate such 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.
IV. Solicitation of Comments

change is consistent with the Act.
