WReier-Aviles on DSKGBLS3C1PROD with NOTICES
A. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement of the Purpose of, and
Statutory Basis for, Proposed Rule
Change
2. Statutory Basis
1. Purpose
The purpose of this proposed rule
change is to introduce fees for an onfloor version of the PULSe workstation
and to extend the waiver of the PULSe
Routing Intermediary fee.
By way of background, the PULSe
workstation is a front-end order entry
system designed for use with respect to
orders that may be sent to the trading
systems of CBOE and CBOE Stock
Exchange (‘‘CBSX’’). In addition, the
PULSe workstation provides a user with
the capability to send options orders to
other U.S. options exchanges and stock
orders to other U.S. stock exchanges
through a PULSe Routing Intermediary
(‘‘away-market routing’’).5
The first purpose of this proposed
rule change is introduce fees for a new
version of the PULSe workstation that
will be configured for use on the CBOE
trading floor by CBOE Trading Permit
Holders (the ‘‘PULSe On-Floor
3 15
U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A)(ii).
CFR 240.19b–4(f)(2).
5 For a more detailed description of the PULSe
workstation and its other functionalities, see, e.g.,
Securities Exchange Act Release No. 62286 (June
11, 2010), 75 FR 34799 (June 18, 2010) (SR–CBOE–
2010–051).

Workstation’’). For administrative
reasons, the PULSe On-Floor
Workstation will be licensed from CBOE
to a CBOE Trading Permit Holder.6 As
with the existing PULSe workstation
(referred to herein as the ‘‘PULSe OffFloor Workstation’’), the PULSe OnFloor Workstation will provide the
capability to send orders to CBOE,
CBSX and away-market routing
functionality. The Exchange proposes a
monthly workstation fee of $225 per
workstation (referred to in the Fees
Schedule as a ‘‘login ID’’) per month for
the PULSe On-Floor Workstation
effective beginning in the month of
January 2011. The Exchange also notes
that the existing PULSe Away-Market
Routing, Routing Intermediary and NonStandard Services fees applicable to the
PULSe Off-Floor Workstation would
also apply to the PULSe On-Floor
Workstation.
The second purpose of this proposed
rule change is to extend the waiver of
the PULSe Routing Intermediary fee.
Currently the Exchange has waived the
Routing Intermediary fee through
December 31, 2010. The Exchange is
proposing to extend this waiver through
March 31, 2011. Thus this fee will be
assessed beginning April 1, 2011.
The proposed rule change is
consistent with Section 6(b) of the Act,7
in general, and furthers the objectives of
Section 6(b)(4) of the Act,8 in particular,
in that it is designed to provide for the
equitable allocation of reasonable dues,
fees, and other charges among Trading
Permit Holders in that the same fees are
applicable to all Trading Permit Holders
that would use the new PULSe On-Floor
Workstation and the same fee waiver
applies to all PULSe Routing
Intermediaries.
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 that is not
necessary or appropriate in furtherance
of purposes of the Act.
6 The PULSe Off-Floor Workstation is licensed
directly from Signal Trading Systems, LLC, an
affiliate of CBOE, to CBOE Trading Permit Holders.

III. Date of Effectiveness of the
Proposed Rule Change and Timing for

establishing or changing a due, fee, or
other charge, thereby qualifying for
effectiveness on filing pursuant to
Section 19(b)(3)(A)(ii) of the Act 9 and
subparagraph (f)(2) of Rule 19b–4 10
thereunder.

I. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Terms of Substance
of the Proposed Rule Change
The Exchange is proposing to amend its fees schedule as it relates
to PULSe workstations. The text of the proposed rule change is
available on the Exchange's Web site https://www.cboe.org/legal), at the
Exchange's Office of the Secretary and at the Commission.
II. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Purpose of, and
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change
In its filing with the Commission, CBOE 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. CBOE has prepared summaries, set forth in sections (A),
(B), and (C) below, of the most significant aspects of such statements.
A. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Purpose of, and
Statutory Basis for, Proposed Rule Change
1. Purpose
The purpose of this proposed rule change is to introduce fees for
an on-floor version of the PULSe workstation and to extend the waiver
of the PULSe Routing Intermediary fee.
By way of background, the PULSe workstation is a front-end order
entry system designed for use with respect to orders that may be sent
to the trading systems of CBOE and CBOE Stock Exchange (``CBSX''). In
addition, the PULSe workstation provides a user with the capability to
send options orders to other U.S. options exchanges and stock orders to
other U.S. stock exchanges through a PULSe Routing Intermediary
(``away-market routing'').\5\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\5\ For a more detailed description of the PULSe workstation and
its other functionalities, see, e.g., Securities Exchange Act
Release No. 62286 (June 11, 2010), 75 FR 34799 (June 18, 2010) (SR-
CBOE-2010-051).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The first purpose of this proposed rule change is introduce fees
for a new version of the PULSe workstation that will be configured for
use on the CBOE trading floor by CBOE Trading Permit Holders (the
``PULSe On-Floor Workstation''). For administrative reasons, the PULSe
On-Floor Workstation will be licensed from CBOE to a CBOE Trading
Permit Holder.\6\ As with the existing PULSe workstation (referred to
herein as the ``PULSe Off-Floor Workstation''), the PULSe On-Floor
Workstation will provide the capability to send orders to CBOE, CBSX
and away-market routing functionality. The Exchange proposes a monthly
workstation fee of $225 per workstation (referred to in the Fees
Schedule as a ``login ID'') per month for the PULSe On-Floor
Workstation effective beginning in the month of January 2011. The
Exchange also notes that the existing PULSe Away-Market Routing,
Routing Intermediary and Non-Standard Services fees applicable to the
PULSe Off-Floor Workstation would also apply to the PULSe On-Floor
Workstation.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\6\ The PULSe Off-Floor Workstation is licensed directly from
Signal Trading Systems, LLC, an affiliate of CBOE, to CBOE Trading
Permit Holders. See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 63244
(November 4, 2010), 75 FR 69148 (November 10, 2010) (SR-CBOE-2010-
100).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The second purpose of this proposed rule change is to extend the
waiver of the PULSe Routing Intermediary fee. Currently the Exchange
has waived the Routing Intermediary fee through December 31, 2010. The
Exchange is proposing to extend this waiver through March 31, 2011.
Thus this fee will be assessed beginning April 1, 2011.
2. Statutory Basis
The proposed rule change is consistent with Section 6(b) of the
Act,\7\ in general, and furthers the objectives of Section 6(b)(4) of
the Act,\8\ in particular, in that it is designed to provide for the
equitable allocation of reasonable dues, fees, and other charges among
Trading Permit Holders in that the same fees are applicable to all
Trading Permit Holders that would use the new PULSe On-Floor
Workstation and the same fee waiver applies to all PULSe Routing
Intermediaries.
