The increased Port Fees reflect the increased costs that the Exchange bears with respect to maintaining ports. The Port Fees are reasonable because they enable the Exchange to offset, in part, its connectivity costs associated with making such ports available, including costs based on gateway software and hardware enhancements and resources dedicated to gateway development, quality assurance, and support. The Exchange’s Port Fees are in line with costs for ports at other options exchanges.15 The Exchange believes that increasing the fees for the NOM Port Fees from $550 to $600 per port, per month, per mnemonic is equitable and not unfairly discriminatory because the Exchange assesses the same fees for all ports to all NOM participants. B. Self-Regulatory Organization’s Statement on Burden on Competition NASDAQ does not believe that the proposed rule change will impose any burden on competition not necessary or appropriate in furtherance of the purposes of the Act. The Exchange believes the proposed fee change is reasonably designed to be fair and equitable, and therefore, will not unduly burden any particular group of market participants trading on the Exchange. The Exchange’s proposal increases fees for all ports for all NOM Participants. The proposed fees are designed to ensure a fair and reasonable use of Exchange resources by allowing the Exchange to recoup for certain of its connectivity costs, while continuing to offer competitive rates to NOM Participants.

of Trading

December 22, 2014.
    It appears to the Securities and Exchange Commission that there is 
a lack of current and accurate information concerning the securities of 
Treaty Energy Corporation (``Treaty Energy'') because it has not filed 
a periodic report since its Form 10-Q for the period ending September 
30, 2013. Treaty Energy is a Nevada corporation based in New Orleans, 
Louisiana, and its common stock is quoted on the OTC Link (previously 
``Pink Sheets'') operated by OTC Markets Group, Inc. under the ticker 
symbol TECO.
    The Commission is of the opinion that the public interest and the 
protection of investors require a suspension of trading in the 
securities of the above-listed company.
    Therefore, it is ordered, pursuant to Section 12(k) of the 
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, that trading in the securities of 
Treaty Energy Corporation is suspended for the period from 9:30 a.m. 
EST on December 22, 2014, through 11:59 p.m. EST on January 6, 2015.

    By the Commission.
Jill M. Peterson,
Assistant Secretary.
