SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE
COMMISSION
[Release No. 34–62684; File No. SR–OCC–
2010–11]
August 10, 2010.
Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934
(‘‘Act’’),1 notice is hereby given that on
July 29, 2010, The Options Clearing
Corporation (‘‘OCC’’) filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission
(‘‘Commission’’) the proposed rule
change described in Items I and II
1 15
E:\FR\FM\16AUN1.SGM
U.S.C. 78s(b)(1).
16AUN1
Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 157 / Monday, August 16, 2010 / Notices
below, which items have been prepared
primarily by OCC. OCC filed the
proposal pursuant to Section
19(b)(3)(A)(i) of the Act 2 and Rule 19b–
4(f)(1) 3 thereunder so that the proposal
was effective upon filing with the
Commission. The Commission is
publishing this notice to solicit
comments on the rule change from
interested parties.
I. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement of the Terms of Substance of
the Proposed Rule Change
The proposed rule change would
broaden the definition of the term
‘‘Representative’’ found in Article I,
Section 1 of OCC’s By-Laws.
In certain instances, otherwise
qualified candidates for the Board or the
Nominating Committee were found to
be ineligible because they were
associated with an affiliate of a Clearing
Member rather than with the Clearing
Member itself. OCC does not believe a
qualified candidate should be precluded
from service on either the Board or
Nominating Committee due to a
technicality and therefore proposes to
broaden the definition of
‘‘Representative’’ to include a
representative of an entity that controls,
is controlled by, or under common
control with a Clearing Member.
Commission summarily may
temporarily suspend 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.

Electronic Comments
• Use the Commission’s Internet
comment form (https://www.sec.gov/
rules/sro.shtml); or
• Send an e-mail to rulecomments@sec.gov. Please include File
Number SR–OCC–2010–11 on the
subject line.
II. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement of the Purpose of, and
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule
Change
In its filing with the Commission,
OCC 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. OCC has prepared
summaries, set forth in sections (A), (B),
and (C) below, of the most significant
aspects of these statements.4
OCC believes that the proposed rule
change is consistent with Section 17A of
the Act,9 as amended, because it fosters
the fair representation of Clearing
Members in the administration of OCC’s
affairs. It accomplishes this purpose by
expanding the pool of qualified
candidates eligible for Board and
Nominating Committee service to
include directors, senior officers,
principals, or general partners of an
affiliate of a Clearing Member. The
proposed rule change is not inconsistent
with the existing rules of OCC,
including any other rules proposed to be
amended.
(A) Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement of the Purpose of, and
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule
Change
(B) Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement on Burden on Competition
1. Purpose
The purpose of this rule change is to
broaden the definition of the term
‘‘Representative’’ found in Article I,
Section 1 of OCC’s By-Laws.
‘‘Representative’’ is defined as a director,
senior officer, principal, or general
partner of a Clearing Member
Organization.5 OCC’s By-Laws require
that a Member Director on OCC’s board
of directors (‘‘Board’’) be either a
Clearing Member 6 or a Representative
of a Clearing Member Organization.7
This same qualification requirement is
applied to members of the Board’s
nominating committee (‘‘Nominating
Committee’’).8

U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A)(i).
CFR 240.19b–4(f)(1).
4 The Commission has modified the text of the
summaries prepared by OCC.
5 Clearing Member Organization means a Clearing
Member that is a legal entity rather than a natural
person. Article I, Section 1 of OCC’s By-Laws.
6 The term ‘‘Clearing Member’’ is defined in OCC’s
By-Laws as a person or organization that has been
admitted to membership in OCC pursuant to the
provisions of the By-Laws and Rules. Article I,
Section 1 of OCC’s by-laws.
7 Article III, Section 2 of OCC’s by-laws.

proposed rule change were not and are

The foregoing proposed rule change
has become effective upon filing
pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A)(i) of the

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.
Jkt 220001
The Exchange is proposing to
establish a new participant category for
purposes of the fee schedule. Presently,
the Exchange makes no distinction
between Broker/Dealers who clear in the
customer range and Broker/Dealers who
clear in the market maker range. Broker/
Dealers who clear in the market maker
range are registered market makers at
other exchanges and accordingly will be
identified on the fee schedule as NonNYSE Amex Option Market Makers.3
The Exchange will assess Non-NYSE
Amex Option Market Makers a fee of
$.40 per contract for all electronic
executions. The fee for Non-NYSE
Amex Option Market Maker orders
executed manually will be $.25 per
contract. The Exchange notes that the
$.40 per contract rate is comparable to
or less than the rate charged by other
exchanges for transactions by market
makers who are registered as such in the
same options on another exchange.4
Presently the Exchange charges for
manual executions that clear in the Firm
range according to a tiered schedule. At
this time the Exchange intends to revert
back to the pricing that was in effect
previously for manual executions that
clear in the Firm range. The tiered
pricing will be replaced with a fixed per
contract fee of $0.25 for all manual
executions that clear in the Firm range.
Additionally, the Exchange intends to
no longer charge for any Firm
Facilitations, which are defined as
trades that clear in the Firm range
(clearance account ‘‘F’’) and customer on
the contra (clearance account ‘‘C’’) with
the same clearing Firm symbol on both
sides of the trade.
These changes are intended to be
effective immediately for all
transactions beginning August 4, 2010.
3 The term ‘‘Non-NYSE Amex Options Market
Maker’’ means a market maker as defined in Section
3(a)(38) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934
registered in the same option class on another
exchange.
4 See the ISE fee schedule dated July 1, 2010. The
ISE charges Non-ISE Market Makers a $.45 per
contract charge for electronic executions.

2. Statutory Basis
The Exchange believes that the
proposed rule change is consistent with
the provisions of Section 6(b) of the
Act,5 in general, and Section 6(b)(4) of
the Act,6 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. The
Exchange has determined, as part of an
ongoing review of its operations, that
the proposed changes to the fee
schedule are necessary in the interests
of better allocating the costs of operating
the Exchange in a fair and equitable
manner, taking into account that NYSE
Amex Options market makers incur
additional costs that Non-NYSE Amex
Options market makers who do
transactions here do not incur.
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.
C. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement on Comments on the
Proposed Rule Change Received From
Members, Participants, or Others
No written comments were solicited
or received with respect to the proposed
rule change.
III. Date of Effectiveness of the
Proposed Rule Change and Timing for
Commission Action
The foregoing rule change is effective
upon filing pursuant to Section
19(b)(3)(A) 7 of the Act and
subparagraph (f)(2) of Rule 19b–4 8
thereunder, because it establishes a due,
fee, or other charge imposed by NYSE
Amex.
At any time within 60 days of the
filing of the proposed rule change, the
Commission summarily may
temporarily suspend 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

submit written data, views, and

change is consistent with the Act.

II. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Purpose of, and

In its filing with the Commission, OCC 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

statements.\4\

\4\ The Commission has modified the text of the summaries
prepared by OCC.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
(A) Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Purpose of, and
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change
1. Purpose
The purpose of this rule change is to broaden the definition of the
term ``Representative'' found in Article I, Section 1 of OCC's By-Laws.
``Representative'' is defined as a director, senior officer, principal,
or general partner of a Clearing Member Organization.\5\ OCC's By-Laws
require that a Member Director on OCC's board of directors (``Board'')
be either a Clearing Member \6\ or a Representative of a Clearing
Member Organization.\7\ This same qualification requirement is applied
to members of the Board's nominating committee (``Nominating
Committee'').\8\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\5\ Clearing Member Organization means a Clearing Member that is
a legal entity rather than a natural person. Article I, Section 1 of
OCC's By-Laws.
\6\ The term ``Clearing Member'' is defined in OCC's By-Laws as
a person or organization that has been admitted to membership in OCC
pursuant to the provisions of the By-Laws and Rules. Article I,
Section 1 of OCC's by-laws.
\7\ Article III, Section 2 of OCC's by-laws.
\8\ Article III, Section 4 of OCC's by-laws.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
In certain instances, otherwise qualified candidates for the Board
or the Nominating Committee were found to be ineligible because they
were associated with an affiliate of a Clearing Member rather than with
the Clearing Member itself. OCC does not believe a qualified candidate
should be precluded from service on either the Board or Nominating
Committee due to a technicality and therefore proposes to broaden the
definition of ``Representative'' to include a representative of an
entity that controls, is controlled by, or under common control with a
Clearing Member.
2. Statutory Basis
OCC believes that the proposed rule change is consistent with
Section 17A of the Act,\9\ as amended, because it fosters the fair
representation of Clearing Members in the administration of OCC's
affairs. It accomplishes this purpose by expanding the pool of
qualified candidates eligible for Board and Nominating Committee
service to include directors, senior officers, principals, or general
partners of an affiliate of a Clearing Member. The proposed rule change
is not inconsistent with the existing rules of OCC, including any other
rules proposed to be amended.

\9\ 15 U.S.C. 78q-1.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
(B) Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Burden on Competition
OCC does not believe that the proposed rule change will have any
impact or impose any burden on competition.
(C) Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Comments on the
Proposed Rule Change Received From Members, Participants, or Others
Written comments relating to the proposed rule change were not and
are not intended to be solicited or received. OCC will notify the
Commission of any written comments received by OCC.
III. Date of Effectiveness of the Proposed Rule Change and Timing for
Commission Action
The foregoing proposed rule change has become effective upon filing
pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A)(i) of the Act \10\ and Rule 19b-4(f)(1)
\11\ thereunder because the proposed rule change constitutes an
interpretation with respect to the meaning, administration or
enforcement of an existing rule. At any time within 60 days of the
filing of the proposed rule change, the Commission summarily may
temporarily suspend 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.
