investors, factors which tend to increase
their transaction volume over traditional
hedge funds. The AIP fee schedule, as
it was originally intended and filed with
the Commission, contemplated a fee
differentiation based on volume.
Accordingly, NSCC seeks to apply the
lower fee structure to hedge funds that
are registered under the 1940 Act.
NSCC believes that the proposed rule
change is consistent with the
requirements of Section 17A of the Act 6
and the rules and regulations
thereunder applicable to NSCC because
it updates the NSCC fee schedule and
provides for the equitable allocation of
fees among NSCC’s members. In
addition, this proposed rule change is
consistent with CPSS/IOSCO
recommendations because it provides
NSCC members with sufficient
information for them to identify and
evaluate accurately the costs associated
with using NSCC’s services.
(B) Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement on Burden on Competition
NSCC does not believe that the
proposed rule change will have any
impact or impose any burden on
competition.
(C) Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement on Comments on the
Proposed Rule Change Received From
Members, Participants, or Others
Written comments relating to the
proposed rule change have not been
solicited or received. NSCC will notify
the Commission of any written
comments received by NSCC.
III. Date of Effectiveness of the
Proposed Rule Change and Timing for
Commission Action
The foregoing proposed rule change
has become effective upon filing
pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A)(ii) of the
Act 7 and Rule 19b–4(f)(2) 8 thereunder.
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.

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
srobinson on DSK4SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES
1. Purpose
The Exchange operates a data center
in Mahwah, New Jersey from which it
provides co-location services to Users.4
For purposes of its co-location services,
the term ‘‘User’’ currently includes any
OTP Holder, OTP Firm or Sponsored
Participant that is authorized to obtain
access to the NYSE Arca System
pursuant to NYSE Arca Options Rule
6.2A (see NYSE Arca Options Rule
6.1A(a)(19)).5 The Exchange proposes to
expand the scope of potential Users of
its co-location services to include any
market participant that requests to
receive co-location services directly
from the Exchange.6 Under the
proposed rule change, Users could
therefore include OTP Holders, OTP
Firms, Sponsored Participants, non-OTP
Holder and non-OTP Firm broker
dealers and vendors. The Exchange
anticipates that the potential additional
Users would provide, for example,
hosting, service bureau, technical
support, risk management, order routing
and market data delivery services to
their customers while the User is colocated in the Exchange’s data center.7
As is the case with all Exchange colocation arrangements, neither a User,
nor any of its customers, would be
permitted to submit orders directly to
the Exchange unless such User or
customer is an OTP Holder, OTP Firm
4 See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 63275
(November 8, 2010), 75 FR 70048 (November 16,
2010) (SR–NYSEArca–2010–100).
5 Id. at note 7.
6 As is the case today, prospective Users must
agree to, and be capable of satisfying, any
applicable co-location fees, requirements, terms and
conditions established from time to time by the
Exchange.
7 The Exchange anticipates that a User’s
customer(s) could include, under certain
circumstances, other Users of the Exchange’s colocation services.

Jkt 226001
or a Sponsored Participant. All existing
co-location terms, conditions, facilities,
services, and applicable fees would
apply to these potential new Users.
The Exchange also proposes to amend
its Fee Schedule to establish a fee
applicable to Users that provide hosting
services to their customers (‘‘Hosted
Users’’) at the Exchange’s data center.
‘‘Hosting’’ would be a service offered by
a User to a Hosted User and could
include, for example, a User supporting
its Hosted User’s technology, whether
hardware or software, through the
User’s co-location space. Specifically,
the Exchange proposes to charge each
User a fee of $500.00 per month for each
Hosted User that the User hosts in the
Exchange’s data center. Users would
independently set fees for their Hosted
Users and the Exchange would not
receive a share of any such fees
2. Statutory Basis
The Exchange believes that the
proposed rule change is consistent with
Section 6(b) of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934 (the ‘‘Act’’),8 in general, and
furthers the objectives of Section
6(b)(4) 9 and 6(b)(5) of the Act,10 in
particular, because it provides for the
equitable allocation of reasonable dues,
fees, and other charges among its
members and issuers and other persons
using its facilities and is designed to
prevent fraudulent and manipulative
acts and practices, 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’s proposal to expand
the scope of potential Users of its colocation services to include any market
participant that requests to receive colocation services directly from the
Exchange would increase access to the
Exchange’s co-location facilities by
allowing additional types of Users to
use those facilities. In this regard, colocation services would be offered by
the Exchange to these additional types
of Users, as is the case today for existing
Users, in a manner that would not
unfairly discriminate between or among
market participants that are otherwise
capable of satisfying any applicable colocation fees, requirements, terms and
conditions established from time to time
by the Exchange.
Additionally, the proposed hosting
fee would be applied uniformly for
comparable services provided by the
8 15
U.S.C. 78f(b).

Exchange and would not unfairly
discriminate between similarly situated
Users of co-location services. In this
regard, the proposed hosting capability
and related fee would be applicable to
all interested Users that provide hosting
services. In addition, the Exchange
believes that the proposed hosting fee is
reasonable in that it is designed to
defray applicable expenses incurred or
resources expended by the Exchange
related to such services, including, but
not limited to, configuration of Users’
connections to their Hosted User
customers and subsequent monitoring
thereof by Exchange staff.
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
Within 45 days of the date of
publication of this notice in the Federal
Register or within such longer period (i)
As the Commission may designate up to
90 days of such date if it finds such
longer period to be appropriate and
publishes its reasons for so finding or
(ii) as to which the self-regulatory
organization consents, the Commission
will:
A. By order approve or disapprove
such proposed rule change, or
B. Institute proceedings to determine
whether the proposed rule change
should be disapproved.

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 operates a data center in Mahwah, New Jersey from
which it provides co-location services to Users.\4\ For purposes of its
co-location services, the term ``User'' currently includes any OTP
Holder, OTP Firm or Sponsored Participant that is authorized to obtain
access to the NYSE Arca System pursuant to NYSE Arca Options Rule 6.2A
(see NYSE Arca Options Rule 6.1A(a)(19)).\5\ The Exchange proposes to
expand the scope of potential Users of its co-location services to
include any market participant that requests to receive co-location
services directly from the Exchange.\6\ Under the proposed rule change,
Users could therefore include OTP Holders, OTP Firms, Sponsored
Participants, non-OTP Holder and non-OTP Firm broker dealers and
vendors. The Exchange anticipates that the potential additional Users
would provide, for example, hosting, service bureau, technical support,
risk management, order routing and market data delivery services to
their customers while the User is co-located in the Exchange's data
center.\7\ As is the case with all Exchange co-location arrangements,
neither a User, nor any of its customers, would be permitted to submit
orders directly to the Exchange unless such User or customer is an OTP
Holder, OTP Firm or a Sponsored Participant. All existing co-location
terms, conditions, facilities, services, and applicable fees would
apply to these potential new Users.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\4\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 63275 (November 8,
2010), 75 FR 70048 (November 16, 2010) (SR-NYSEArca-2010-100).
\5\ Id. at note 7.
\6\ As is the case today, prospective Users must agree to, and
be capable of satisfying, any applicable co-location fees,
requirements, terms and conditions established from time to time by
the Exchange.
\7\ The Exchange anticipates that a User's customer(s) could
include, under certain circumstances, other Users of the Exchange's
co-location services.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Exchange also proposes to amend its Fee Schedule to establish a
fee applicable to Users that provide hosting services to their
customers (``Hosted Users'') at the Exchange's data center. ``Hosting''
would be a service offered by a User to a Hosted User and could
include, for example, a User supporting its Hosted User's technology,
whether hardware or software, through the User's co-location space.
Specifically, the Exchange proposes to charge each User a fee of
$500.00 per month for each Hosted User that the User hosts in the
Exchange's data center. Users would independently set fees for their
Hosted Users and the Exchange would not receive a share of any such
fees
2. Statutory Basis
The Exchange believes that the proposed rule change is consistent
with Section 6(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the
``Act''),\8\ in general, and furthers the objectives of Section 6(b)(4)
\9\ and 6(b)(5) of the Act,\10\ in particular, because it provides for
the equitable allocation of reasonable dues, fees, and other charges
among its members and issuers and other persons using its facilities
and is designed to prevent fraudulent and manipulative acts and
practices, 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's proposal to expand the scope of potential Users of
its co-location services to include any market participant that
requests to receive co-location services directly from the Exchange
would increase access to the Exchange's co-location facilities by
allowing additional types of Users to use those facilities. In this
regard, co-location services would be offered by the Exchange to these
additional types of Users, as is the case today for existing Users, in
a manner that would not unfairly discriminate between or among market
participants that are otherwise capable of satisfying any applicable
co-location fees, requirements, terms and conditions established from
time to time by the Exchange.
Additionally, the proposed hosting fee would be applied uniformly
for comparable services provided by the Exchange and would not unfairly
discriminate between similarly situated Users of co-location services.
In this regard, the proposed hosting capability and related fee would
be applicable to all interested Users that provide hosting services. In
addition, the Exchange believes that the proposed hosting fee is
reasonable in that it is designed to defray applicable expenses
incurred or resources expended by the Exchange related to such
services, including, but not limited to, configuration of Users'
connections to their Hosted User customers and subsequent monitoring
thereof by Exchange staff.
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
