Purpose The Exchange proposes to amend its 2010 Price List to assess monthly fees for the use of all ports that provide connectivity to its equity trading systems. A number of other markets already charge such fees, but the Exchange has not previously done so. The level of activity with respect to a particular port will not affect the assessment of monthly fees, so even if a particular port that is available to a participant is not used, the participant will still be billed for that port. The monthly fee for ports will be $100 per pair per month up to five pairs, then $500 for each additional five pairs. For example, the fee for seven pairs of ports will be $1,000 per month. Billing for ports will be based on the number of ports on the third business day prior to the end of the month. In its table of credits applicable to SLPs, the Exchange is modifying language referencing the SLP quoting requirement to reflect a recent rule filing that changed the standard from 3% to 10% of the regular trading day in any calendar month in order to receive a financial rebate and also added a volume requirement.4 These changes are intended to be effective immediately for all transactions beginning October 1, 2010. 4 See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 62791 (August 30, 2010), 75 FR 54411 (September 7, 2010) (File No. SR–NYSE–2010–60).

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 self-regulatory organization 
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 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 Exchange proposes to amend its 2010 Price List to assess 
monthly fees for the use of all ports that provide connectivity to its 
equity trading systems. A number of other markets already charge such 
fees, but the Exchange has not previously done so.
    The level of activity with respect to a particular port will not 
affect the assessment of monthly fees, so even if a particular port 
that is available to a participant is not used, the participant will 
still be billed for that port. The monthly fee for ports will be $100 
per pair per month up to five pairs, then $500 for each additional five 
pairs. For example, the fee for seven pairs of ports will be $1,000 per 
month. Billing for ports will be based on the number of ports on the 
third business day prior to the end of the month.
    In its table of credits applicable to SLPs, the Exchange is 
modifying language referencing the SLP quoting requirement to reflect a 
recent rule filing that changed the standard from 3% to 10% of the 
regular trading day in any calendar month in order to receive a 
financial rebate and also added a volume requirement.\4\

2010), 75 FR 54411 (September 7, 2010) (File No. SR-NYSE-2010-60).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    These changes are intended to be effective immediately for all 
transactions beginning October 1, 2010.

2. Statutory Basis
    The Exchange believes that the proposed rule change is consistent 
with the provisions of Section 6 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 
(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 believes 
that the proposal does not constitute an inequitable allocation of 
fees, as all similarly situated member organizations will be charged 
the same amount and access to the Exchange's market is offered on fair 
and non-discriminatory terms.

Rule Change Received From Members, Participants or Others

    No written comments were solicited or received with respect to the

Commission Action

    The foregoing rule change is effective upon filing pursuant to
