Self-Regulatory Organization’s Statement of the Purpose of, and Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with NOTICES 1. Purpose The Exchange is amending Rule 7051 entitled ‘‘Direct Connectivity to BX’’ to clarify the Exchange’s direct connectivity services. Currently, the Exchange assesses fees for direct 10Gb circuit connections, and fees for direct circuit connections capable of supporting up to 1Gb, for customers who are not co-located at the Exchange’s datacenter.3 The Exchange noted in SR– BX–2010–064 that it makes available to both co-located and non-co-located customers direct connections capable of supporting up to 1Gb, with per connection monthly fees of $500 for colocated customers and $1000 for non colocated customers.4 Monthly fees are higher for non co-located customers because direct connection requires the Exchange to provide cabinet space and middleware for those customers’ thirdparty vendors to connect to the datacenter and, ultimately, to the trading system.5 The Exchange also assesses an optional installation fee of $925 if the customer chooses to use an on-site router (collectively ‘‘Direct Connectivity Fees’’).6 The Exchange provides direct connect services and assesses fees through NASDAQ Technology Services, LLC, as it does with similar co-location services.7 Subsequently, the Exchange amended these Direct Connectivity Fees to establish pricing for customers who are not co-located in the Exchange’s data center, but require shared cabinet space and power for optional routers, switches, or modems to support their direct circuit connections. The Exchange assesses customers who are not co-located in the Exchange’s data center monthly fees for space based on a height unit of approximately two inches high, commonly call a ‘‘U’’ space and a maximum power of 125 Watts per U space.8 The Exchange now seeks to add clarifying text to Exchange Rule 7051 to state that the direct connectivity services are provided by NASDAQ 3 See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 62969 (September 22, 2010), 75 FR 59777 (September 28, 2010) (SR–BX–2010–064). 4 Id. at page 4 and page 10. 5 Id. 6 Id. 7 See Exchange Rule 7034(b), Connectivity to BX. 8 See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 64439 (May 9, 2011), 76 FR 28248 (May 16, 2011) (SR– BX–2011–023).

The Exchange’s proposal is the result of its desire to prominently place language in the Exchange Rule 7051 to make transparent that the connectivity services are provided by NASDAQ Technology Services, LLC. Such change will assist with easy identification of items not serviced, and billed, by the Exchange. This change merely codifies the practice of the Exchange. 2. Statutory Basis The Exchange believes that the proposed rule change is consistent with the provisions of Section 6 of the Act,9 in general, and furthers the objectives of Section 6(b)(5) of the Act 10 in particular, in that it is designed to promote just and equitable principles of trade, to remove impediments to and perfect the mechanism of a free and open market and a national market system, and, in general to protect investors and the public interest. The Exchange believes the proposed amendment to Exchange Rule 7051 makes transparent that the direct connectivity services are provided by NASDAQ Technology Services, LLC. The Exchange believes that this clarifying amendment will benefit all market participants by making transparent the source of the direct connectivity services. B. Self-Regulatory Organization’s Statement on Burden on Competition The Exchange does not believe that the proposed rule change will result in 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 Written comments were neither solicited nor received. III.

Sections A, B, and C below, of

[[Page 55987]]

the most significant aspects 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 is amending Rule 7051 entitled ``Direct Connectivity 
to BX'' to clarify the Exchange's direct connectivity services. 
Currently, the Exchange assesses fees for direct 10Gb circuit 
connections, and fees for direct circuit connections capable of 
supporting up to 1Gb, for customers who are not co-located at the 
Exchange's datacenter.\3\ The Exchange noted in SR-BX-2010-064 that it 
makes available to both co-located and non-co-located customers direct 
connections capable of supporting up to 1Gb, with per connection 
monthly fees of $500 for co-located customers and $1000 for non co-
located customers.\4\ Monthly fees are higher for non co-located 
customers because direct connection requires the Exchange to provide 
cabinet space and middleware for those customers' third-party vendors 
to connect to the datacenter and, ultimately, to the trading system.\5\ 
The Exchange also assesses an optional installation fee of $925 if the 
customer chooses to use an on-site router (collectively ``Direct 
Connectivity Fees'').\6\ The Exchange provides direct connect services 
and assesses fees through NASDAQ Technology Services, LLC, as it does 
with similar co-location services.\7\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 62969 (September 22, 
2010), 75 FR 59777 (September 28, 2010) (SR-BX-2010-064).

    \6\ Id.
    \7\ See Exchange Rule 7034(b), Connectivity to BX.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Subsequently, the Exchange amended these Direct Connectivity Fees 
to establish pricing for customers who are not co-located in the 
Exchange's data center, but require shared cabinet space and power for 
optional routers, switches, or modems to support their direct circuit 
connections. The Exchange assesses customers who are not co-located in 
the Exchange's data center monthly fees for space based on a height 
unit of approximately two inches high, commonly call a ``U'' space and 
a maximum power of 125 Watts per U space.\8\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \8\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 64439 (May 9, 2011), 
76 FR 28248 (May 16, 2011) (SR-BX-2011-023).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange now seeks to add clarifying text to Exchange Rule 7051 
to state that the direct connectivity services are provided by NASDAQ 
Technology Services, LLC. The Exchange's proposal is the result of its 
desire to prominently place language in the Exchange Rule 7051 to make 
transparent that the connectivity services are provided by NASDAQ 
Technology Services, LLC. Such change will assist with easy 
identification of items not serviced, and billed, by the Exchange. This 
change merely codifies the practice of the Exchange.
2. Statutory Basis
    The Exchange believes that the proposed rule change is consistent 
with the provisions of Section 6 of the Act,\9\ in general, and 
furthers the objectives of Section 6(b)(5) of the Act \10\ in 
particular, in that it is designed to promote just and equitable 
principles of trade, to remove impediments to and perfect the mechanism 
of a free and open market and a national market system, and, in general 
to protect investors and the public interest. The Exchange believes the 
proposed amendment to Exchange Rule 7051 makes transparent that the 
direct connectivity services are provided by NASDAQ Technology 
Services, LLC. The Exchange believes that this clarifying amendment 
will benefit all market participants by making transparent the source 
of the direct connectivity services.

B. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Burden on Competition

    The Exchange does not believe that the proposed rule change will 
result in 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

    Written comments were neither solicited nor received.

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

    The foregoing rule change has become effective pursuant to Section 
19(b)(3)(A)(i) of the Act.\11\ 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 should be 
approved or disapproved.
