On July 15, 2014, NYSE MKT LLC (the ‘‘Exchange’’ or ‘‘NYSE MKT’’), pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (‘‘Act’’) 1 and Rule 19b–4 thereunder,2 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the ‘‘Commission’’) a proposed rule change to removing building access and other restrictions on traders conducting certain futures and options trading on ICE Futures U.S., Inc. The proposed rule change was 7 17 CFR 200.30–3(a)(57). U.S.C. 78s(b)(1). 2 17 CFR 240.19b–4. 1 15 PO 00000 Frm 00085 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 56419 published for public comment in the Federal Register on August 1, 2014.3 The Commission received no comments on the proposal. This order approves the proposed rule change. I. Background and Introduction The Exchange proposes to remove building access and other restrictions on traders conducting certain futures and options trading on ICE Futures U.S., Inc. (‘‘IFUS’’) 4 in space rented from the Exchange (the ‘‘IFUS Trading Floor’’). 1. Background On February 13, 2013, the Exchange filed a proposed rule change to relocate trading of certain futures and options contracts conducted on IFUS from rented space at the New York Mercantile Exchange (‘‘NYMEX’’) to trading space at 20 Broad Street, New York, New York, commonly known as the ‘‘Blue Room’’, and to amend NYSE MKT Rule 6A—Equities, which defines the terms ‘‘Trading Floor’’ and ‘‘NYSE Amex Options Trading Floor’’ (the ‘‘Original Filing’’).5 The Original Filing stated that the IFUS Traders relocating to 20 Broad Street and their clerical employees 6 would only utilize the 18 Broad Street entrance to access the Blue Room 7 and, once inside, be prohibited from entering the Main Room, where most of the NYSE MKT and New York Stock Exchange LLC (‘‘NYSE’’) Equities Floor brokers and all NYSE MKT and NYSE Designated Market Makers (‘‘DMMs’’) are located, as well as the NYSE Amex Options trading floor. In addition, the Original Filing represented that the IFUS Traders would sit together in dedicated booth space approximately 3 Securities Exchange Act Release No. 72680 (July 28, 2014), 79 FR 44953. 4 IFUS is a Designated Contract Market pursuant to the Commodity Exchange Act, as amended, and is regulated by the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (‘‘CFTC’’). 5 See Securities Exchange Act Release Nos. 68997 (February 27, 2013), 78 FR 17982 (March 5, 2013) (SR–NYSEMKT–2013–13). 6 Currently, there are 24 IFUS Traders and 13 clerical staff on the IFUS Trading Floor. At the time of the Original Filing, there were 40 IFUS Traders. 7 Specifically, the IFUS Traders must use the 18 Broad Street entrance elevator and enter the Trading Floor using the turnstile nearest the Blue Room. The Exchange has been monitoring badge swipes at other locations to identify instances where the IFUS Traders utilize a different entrance and referring those findings to IFUS Compliance for appropriate action. Last year, there were approximately 22 instances in which individual IFUS Traders or their clerical staff used an entrance or turnstile other than 18 Broad entrance and turnstiles authorized for their use. However, IFUS Compliance found that all of these were inadvertent use of either of a wrong turnstile for the 18 Broad St. entrance, another entrance necessitated for use when gaining visitor access or when the 18 Broad St. entrance was temporarily inaccessible, or to access a bathroom, and therefore, chose not to take any disciplinary action.
