Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 219 / Thursday, November 13, 2014 / Notices Exchange believes that the proposed rule change is not intended to address competitive issues but rather to achieve greater consistency between the Exchange’s rules and FINRA’s rules concerning supervision. tkelley on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES 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 The Exchange has filed the proposed rule change pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A)(iii) of the Act 25 and Rule 19b–4(f)(6) thereunder.26 Because the proposed rule change does not: (i) Significantly affect the protection of investors or the public interest; (ii) impose any significant burden on competition; and (iii) become operative prior to 30 days from the date on which it was filed, or such shorter time as the Commission may designate, if consistent with the protection of investors and the public interest, the proposed rule change has become effective pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A) of the Act and Rule 19b–4(f)(6)(iii) thereunder. A proposed rule change filed under Rule 19b–4(f)(6) 27 normally does not become operative prior to 30 days after the date of the filing. However, pursuant to Rule 19b4(f)(6)(iii),28 the Commission may designate a shorter period of time if such action is consistent with the protection of investors and the public interest. The Exchange has asked the Commission to waive the 30-day operative delay so that the proposal may become operative immediately upon filing. The Commission believes that waiving the 30-day operative delay is consistent with the protection of investors and the public interest, because it allows the Exchange to immediately conform its supervision rules to corresponding FINRA rules. This will ensure that Dual Members generally will be subject to a single set of rules governing supervision. As noted by the Exchange, the proposal would harmonize NYSE and FINRA rules, resulting in less burdensome and more efficient regulatory compliance. In addition, the proposal will update and U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A)(iii). CFR 240.19b–4(f)(6). 27 17 CFR 240.19b–4(f)(6). 28 17 CFR 240.19b–4(f)(6)(iii). 26 17 17:16 Nov 12, 2014 IV.

Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the ‘‘Act’’),1 and Rule 19b–4 thereunder,2 notice is hereby given that on October 31, 2014, BOX Options Exchange LLC (the ‘‘Exchange’’) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the ‘‘Commission’’) the proposed rule change as described in Items I, II, and III below, which Items have been prepared by the Exchange. The Exchange filed the proposed rule change pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A)(ii) of the Act,3 and Rule 19b–4(f)(2) thereunder,4 which renders the proposal effective upon filing with the Commission. 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 the Substance of the Proposed Rule Change The Exchange is filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (‘‘Commission’’) a proposed rule change to amend the Fee Schedule to amend the Fee Schedule [sic] on the BOX Market LLC (‘‘BOX’’) options facility. While changes to the fee schedule pursuant to this proposal will be effective upon filing, the changes will become operative on November 1, 2014. The text of the proposed rule change is available from the principal office of the Exchange, at the Commission’s Public Reference Room and also on the Exchange’s Internet Web site at https:// boxexchange.com. 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 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. A. Self-Regulatory Organization’s Statement of the Purpose of, and Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change 1. Purpose The Exchange proposes to make a number of changes to the BOX Fee Schedule. Exchange Fees Non-Auction Transactions First, the Exchange proposes to amend Section I (Exchange Fees) to establish a subsection entitled ‘‘Non- Auction Transactions.’’ 5 The Exchange then proposes to adopt the current fee structure for Non-Auction Transactions in Select Symbols for all Non-Auction transactions on BOX. With this change the Select Symbols fee structure outlined in Section I.C. of the BOX Fee Schedule will be removed. Currently, Non-Auction Transactions in non-Select Symbols are subject to the fee structure outlined in Section I of the BOX Fee Schedule. For every NonAuction Transaction, Public Customers are assessed a $0.07 fee per contract and Professional Customers and Broker Dealers $0.42 per contract. Market Makers are assessed a per contract fee based upon the Market Maker’s Monthly ADV in all transactions executed on BOX, as calculated at the end of each month. All Non-Auction Transactions for that month are charged the same per contract fee according to the ADV achieved by the Market Maker, which ranges from $0.13 to $0.35. In proposed Section I.A. (NonAuction Transactions), the Exchange proposes to adopt a pricing model where the Exchange will assess transaction fees and credits dependent upon three factors: (i) The account type of the Participant submitting the order; (ii) whether the Participant is a liquidity provider or liquidity taker; and (iii) the account type of the contra party. NonAuction Transactions in Penny Pilot Classes will also be assessed different fees or credits than Non-Auction Transactions in Non-Penny Pilot Classes. The Exchange also proposes to specify that these transactions will now be exempt from the Liquidity Fees and Credits outlined in Section II of the BOX Fee Schedule. The proposed fee structure for all Non-Auction Transactions is as follows: Penny pilot classes Contra party Public Customer ................................ tkelley on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES Account type Public Customer ...............................
