National Small Business Development Center Advisory Board, 1657-1658 [2011-314]

Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 7 / Tuesday, January 11, 2011 / Notices Finally, the Exchange proposes to increase the credits applicable to SLPs when adding liquidity to the Exchange in Exchange-listed securities priced at $1.00 or more. For such transactions in which the SLP also meets the 5% average or more quoting requirement in an assigned security pursuant to Rule 107B (the ‘‘5% quoting requirement’’), the credit per share for the SLP will increase from the current rate of $0.0020 to $0.0027. For such transactions in which the SLP does not meet the 5% quoting requirement, the credit per share for the SLP will increase from the current rate of $0.0015 to $0.0016. The Exchange has also expanded the heading of the first section of the Price List relating to fees and credits applicable to DMMs in Exchange-listed securities to clarify that this section describing DMM fees and credits relates only to securities priced at $1.00 or more per share. This is a clean-up change and is not substantive in nature. These changes are intended to be effective immediately for all transactions beginning January 3, 2011. mstockstill on DSKH9S0YB1PROD with NOTICES 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’’),6 in general, and Section 6(b)(4) of the Act,7 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 subject to the same fee structure and access to the Exchange’s market is offered on fair and non-discriminatory terms. The Exchange believes that the proposed amendments to its equities Price List represent an equitable allocation of dues and fees in that the proposed increased credit of $0.0001 per share for adding liquidity is the same for floor brokers and customers, as is the increase of $0.0003 per share in the charge when taking liquidity. The Exchange further notes that the new equity per share credit of $0.0016 for adding liquidity is exactly the same for both customers and floor brokers, as is the new equity per share charge of $0.0028 for taking liquidity.8 6 15 U.S.C. 78f. U.S.C. 78f(b)(4). 8 See e-mail from William Love, Chief Counsel, NYSE Euronext, to Nathan Saunders, Special Counsel, and Andrew Madar, Special Counsel, Commission, dated January 3, 2011. 7 15 VerDate Mar<15>2010 17:33 Jan 10, 2011 Jkt 223001 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) 9 of the Act and subparagraph (f)(2) of Rule 19b–4 10 thereunder, because it establishes a due, fee, or other charge imposed on its members 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. If the Commission takes such action, the Commission shall institute proceedings to determine whether the proposed rule change should be approved or disapproved. IV. Solicitation of Comments Interested persons are invited to submit written data, views, and arguments concerning the foregoing, including whether the proposed rule change is consistent with the Act.
