A. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement of the Purpose of, and the
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule
Change
Self-Regulatory Organizations; NYSE
MKT LLC; Notice of Filing and
Immediate Effectiveness of Proposed
Rule Change Amending Section 332 of
the NYSE MKT Company Guide To
Provide That Listed Companies Should
Pay Listing Fees Due in Connection
With the Listing of Additional
Securities in the Manner Specified in
the Exchange’s Invoice
August 18, 2014.
Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) 1 of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the
‘‘Act’’) 2 and Rule 19b–4 thereunder,3
notice is hereby given that on August
12, 2014, NYSE MKT LLC (the
‘‘Exchange’’ or ‘‘NYSE MKT’’) filed with
the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the ‘‘Commission’’) the
proposed rule change as described in
Items I and II below, which Items have
been prepared by the self-regulatory
organization. The Commission is
publishing this notice to solicit
comments on the proposed rule change
from interested persons.
I. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement of the Terms of Substance of
the Proposed Rule Change
The Exchange proposes to amend
Section 332 of the NYSE MKT Company
Guide (the [sic] Company Guide’’) to
provide that listed companies should
pay listing fees due in connection with
the listing of additional securities in the
manner specified in the Exchange’s
invoice. The text of the proposed rule
change is available on the Exchange’s
Web site at www.nyse.com, at the
principal office of the Exchange, and at
the Commission’s Public Reference
Room.
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,
U.S.C. 78s(b)(1).
U.S.C. 78a.
3 17 CFR 240.19b–4.
1. Purpose
The Exchange charges listed
companies fees in connection with the
listing of additional shares of a class of
listed securities. The rates at which
those fees are charged are established by
Section 142 of the Company Guide.
Section 332 of the Company guide
specifies that the submission of a listing
application in connection with the
listing of additional securities must be
accompanied by a check in the amount
of the applicable listing fee pursuant to
Section 142. The Exchange proposes to
amend Section 332 to provide that,
rather than having a listed company
submit a check in connection with a
listing application, the Exchange will
send an invoice to the listed company
upon receipt of the listing application.
The invoice will specify the amount of
the applicable listing fee and will
provide instructions as to how the
company should submit its payment. It
is the Exchange’s expectation for the
foreseeable future that its invoices will
provide instructions for companies to
submit payment by wire transfer. The
Exchange wishes to make this change as
a matter of internal administrative
efficiency and to avoid any
inconvenience to listed companies in
the event that checks are lost. The
Exchange does not believe that the
change in policy will impose any
significant additional burden on listed
companies.
2. Statutory Basis
The Exchange believes that the
proposed rule change is consistent with
Section 6(b) 4 of the Act, in general, and
furthers the objectives of Section 6(b)(5)
of the Act,5 in particular in that it is
designed to promote just and equitable
principles of trade, to foster cooperation
and coordination with persons engaged
in regulating, clearing, settling,
processing information with respect to,
and facilitating transactions in
securities, 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 that the proposed
amendment is consistent with the goal
of Section 6(b)(5) to remove
