Self-Regulatory Organization’s Statement of the Purpose of, and Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change In its filing with the Commission, the Exchange 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. The Exchange has prepared summaries, set forth in sections A, B, and C below, of the most significant aspects of such statements. 1. Purpose The Exchange proposes to amend its Fees Schedule. Currently, C2 MarketMaker fees for simple, non-complex orders in equity options classes (both Penny Pilot classes and non-Penny Pilot classes) are calculated using a formula.3 The maximum fee is $0.85 per contract ($0.085 for mini-options). The Exchange would like to set a standard fee of $0.40 per contract ($0.04 for mini-options) for C2 Market-Makers for simple, noncomplex orders in Penny Pilot equity options classes.4 This set rate is lower than the maximum fee in order to encourage quoting in such classes, and would lower the fee paid by C2 MarketMakers trading simple, non-complex orders in Penny Pilot equity options classes in the majority of transactions. In conjunction with the above proposed change, the Exchange also proposes to modify the maximum Public Customer Taker Rebate (also for simple, non-complex orders in equity options classes) for Penny Pilot options.5 Currently, the maximum rebate is $0.75 per contract ($0.075 for mini options), regardless of whether the options being traded are Penny Pilot classes or non-Penny Pilot classes. The Exchange does not propose to change 3 Fee = (C2 BBO Market Width at time of execution) × (Market Participant Rate) × 50* * For mini-options, the multiplier will be 5 instead of 50. BBO Market Width: Displayed C2 Ask Price— Displayed C2 Bid Price. The Market Participant Rate for C2 MarketMakers is 30%. For more information, see C2 Fees Schedule, Section 1B. 4 The Exchange proposes to add the statement ‘‘The above fee structure calculation does not apply to C2 Market-Makers trading Penny Pilot options; such C2 Market-Makers will be assessed a fee of $0.40 per contract ($0.04 for mini-options).’’ 5 For more information about the Public Customer Taker Rebate, see C2 Fees Schedule, Section 1B. PO 00000 Frm 00091 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 this maximum rebate with respect to non-Penny Pilot options, but does propose to lower the maximum rebate to $0.60 per contract ($0.06 for minioptions) for Penny Pilot options. Since the Exchange is setting a fixed maximum fee rate for C2 MarketMakers, the Exchange desires to ensure that the spread between the maximum fee for C2 Market-Makers and maximum Public Customer Taker Rebate is not so large as to become economically imprudent for the Exchange. Also in conjunction with the above proposed changes, the Exchange also proposes to delete from Section 1B the statement that ‘‘For the BAC, MBI, BBRY, DELL and JCP equity options classes, the maximum fee will be $0.55 per contract and the maximum rebate will be $0.45 per contract.’’ This will put BAC, MBI, BBRY, DELL and JCP (the ‘‘Special Classes’’) on the same competitive footing, from a fees standpoint, as all other classes, and the same fees that apply to all other classes will apply to the Special Classes. Because the Special Classes are all Penny Pilot classes, C2 Market-Maker fees for such trades will be $0.40 per contract and the maximum Public Customer Taker Rebate for such trades will be $0.60 per contract. The Exchange also proposes to adopt a fee of $50 per month per login ID for PULSe workstation users that elect to access a COB Feed.6 The COB Feed provides data (which has already been otherwise-available to PULSe Workstation users) on a data feed that specifically provides COB data. In order to improve the provision of this COB data, the Exchange has recently contracted an outside vendor to provide the COB Feed. The Exchange proposes to assess the new COB Feed Fee in order to recoup costs associated with the provision of the COB Feed. 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.7 Specifically, the Exchange believes the proposed rule change is consistent with Section 6(b)(4) 6 ‘‘COB’’ stands for the Exchange’s Complex Order Book. For a more detailed description of the PULSe workstation and its other functionalities, see, e.g., Securities Exchange Act Release Nos. 63246 (November 4, 2010) 75 FR 69478 (November 12, 2010) (SR–C2–2010–007), 65279 (September 7, 2011), 76 FR 56824 (September 14, 2011) (SR–C2– 2011–020), 65482 (October 4, 2011), 76 FR 62879 (October 11, 2011) (SR–C2–2011–028), and 69991 (July 16, 2013), 78 FR 43956 (July 22, 2013) (SR– C2–2013–026). 7 15 U.S.C. 78f(b).
