Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 45 / Wednesday, March 7, 2012 / Notices
2. Statutory Basis
The Exchange believes the proposed
rule change is consistent with the Act
and the rules and regulations
thereunder applicable to the Exchange
and, in particular, the requirements of
Section 6(b) of the Act.4 Specifically,
the Exchange believes the proposed rule
change is consistent with Section 6(b)(4)
of the Act,5 which provides that
Exchange rules may provide for the
equitable allocation of reasonable dues,
fees, and other charges among its
Trading Permit Holders and other
persons using its facilities. The slight
increases to the Maker fees for
transactions in securities priced $1 or
greater are reasonable because the
amount of the increase is minimal, and
the amounts of the fees are within the
range of Maker fees that have been
assessed previously. The slight
increases to the Maker fees for
transactions in securities priced $1 or
greater are equitable and not unfairly
discriminatory because the fees will be
assessed to all market participants
equally.
The change to eliminate the Maker for
transactions in securities priced less
than $1 fee is reasonable because it will
allow market participants to no longer
have to pay a Maker fee for such
transactions. This change is equitable
and not unfairly discriminatory because
it will allow all market participants to
avoid paying such a fee. The change to
increase the Taker fee for transactions in
securities priced less than $1 is
reasonable because the new amount of
the fee is within the range of fees for
similar transactions at other exchanges,6
and is equitable and not unfairly
discriminatory because it will be
assessed to all market participants
equally.
B. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement on Burden on Competition
srobinson on DSK4SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES
CBOE 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
The Exchange neither solicited nor
received comments on the proposed
rule change.
U.S.C. 78f(b).
U.S.C. 78f(b)(4).
6 See footnote 1.
III. Date of Effectiveness of the
Proposed Rule Change and Timing for
Commission Action
The proposed rule change is
designated by the Exchange as
establishing or changing a due, fee, or
other charge, thereby qualifying for
effectiveness on filing pursuant to
Section 19(b)(3)(A) of the Act 7 and
subparagraph (f)(2) of Rule 19b–4 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.
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.
