Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934
(‘‘Act’’),1 notice is hereby given that on
October 18, 2010, The Depository Trust
Company (‘‘DTC’’) filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission
(‘‘Commission’’) the proposed rule
change described in Items I and II
below, which items have been prepared
primarily by DTC.2 DTC filed the
proposed rule change pursuant to
Section 19(b)(3)(A)(iii) and Rule 19b–
4(f)(3) thereunder so that the proposed
rule change was effective upon filing
with the Commission.3 The Commission
is publishing this notice to solicit
comments on the proposed 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 will amend
DTC rules to provide that DTC will
impose a new disincentive fee for
1 15
U.S.C. 78s(b)(1).
2 The text of the proposed rule change is attached
as Exhibit 5 to DTC’s filing, which is available at

II. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement of the Purpose of, and
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule
Change
In its filing with the Commission,
DTC 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. DTC has prepared
summaries, set forth in sections (A), (B),
and (C) below, of the most significant
aspects of these statements.4
(A) Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement of the Purpose of, and
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule
Change
The DAM system allows participants
to transmit details of a deposit before
forwarding physical securities to DTC.
Under the DAM system, a participant is
able to send to DTC details regarding
securities that the participant plans to
deposit.5 DTC uses the deposit details to
determine whether the proposed deposit
is acceptable by checking for such
things as issue eligibility, chill status,
correct CUSIP information, etc. The
deposit detail information is stored in
DTC’s database. Upon the submitting
participant’s initiation, DTC’s systems
send a transmission to the submitting
participant’s printer using a Systems
Network Architecture (‘‘SNA’’)
connection.6 The transmission causes
4 The Commission has modified the text of the
summaries prepared by the DTC.
5 Participants send the deposit details to DTC
using either a Participant Terminal System message
(‘‘DAMP’’), a PBS transmission, or a CF2DEP file.
6 SNA is a network system developed by IBM in
the early 1980s to move large amounts of data
through the Internet.

bar-coded deposit tickets to print at the
participant’s office on dedicated thermal
printers.7 The bar-coded deposit tickets
contain a variety of information
required for DTC’s processing of
deposits.
Since IBM’s recent announcement
that it would no longer support SNA,
DTC has begun making the deposit
tickets available in PDF format. The
method used by participants to initiate
the print process did not change but
rather than send the deposit tickets to a
dedicated thermal printer at the
participant’s location, DTC ‘‘pushes’’ the
deposit tickets to the requesting
participant’s work station in PDF format
where the ticket can then be printed
from any printer attached to that work
station (‘‘PDF method’’). This process
eliminates the need for participants to
use expensive thermal printers or ‘‘peeloff’’ bar code labels.
Effective October 8, 2010, DTC retired
the outdated and unsupported SNA
ticket print stream and the use of ‘‘peeloff’’ adhesive bar code labels.
Participants continue to have the ability
to produce DAM deposit tickets for
submission to DTC using the PDF
method. Effective Monday, November 1,
2010, all DAM deposits received by DTC
must be accompanied by a deposit ticket
printed using the PDF method. Pursuant
to this rule change, all deposits received
without a DAM deposit ticket generated
using the PDF method will continue to
be processed by DTC but will incur a
$100.00 processing fee in addition to the
current DAM deposit fee.
DTC believes that the proposed rule
change is consistent with the
requirements of Section 17A of the Act 8
and the rules and regulations
thereunder that are applicable to DTC
7 Some participants with low volumes of deposits
have elected to use ‘‘peel-off’’ adhesive bar code
labels instead of investing in expensive thermal
printers.
