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 tkelley on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES 1. Purpose The Exchange proposes to update and amend the table in Exchange Rule 3304 that sets forth on a market-by-market basis the specific network processor and proprietary data feeds that the Exchange utilizes for the handling, routing, and execution of orders, and for performing the regulatory compliance checks related to each of those functions. Specifically, the table will be amended to include National Stock Exchange (‘‘NSX’’), which has informed the UTP Securities Information Processor (‘‘UTP SIP’’) that, subject to regulatory approval, it is projecting to reactivate its status as an operating participant for quotation and trading of NASDAQ-listed securities under the Unlisted Trading Privileges (‘‘UTP’’) Plan on or about August 31, 2015. The other changes to the table merely reflect updates to mirror the current network processor and proprietary data feeds utilized by the Exchange for the handling, routing, and execution of orders, and for performing the regulatory compliance checks related to each of those functions. VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:56 Aug 12, 2015 Jkt 235001 2. Statutory Basis The Exchange believes that the proposed rule change is consistent with the provisions of Section 6 of the Act,3 in general and with Sections 6(b)(5) of the Act,4 in particular in that it is designed to prevent fraudulent and manipulative acts and practices, 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 its proposal to update the table in Exchange Rule 3304 to make certain it is current, as well as to amend the table to include NSX, would ensure that Exchange Rule 3304 correctly identifies and publicly states on a market-bymarket basis all of the specific network processor and proprietary data feeds that the Exchange utilizes for the handling, routing, and execution of orders, and for performing the regulatory compliance checks related to each of those functions, and that the proposed rule change removes impediments to and perfects the mechanism of a free and open market and protects investors and the public interest because it provides additional specificity, clarity and transparency. B. Self-Regulatory Organization’s Statement on Burden on Competition The Exchange does not believe that the proposed rule change will result in any burden on competition that is not necessary or appropriate in furtherance of the purposes of the Act, as amended. To the contrary, the Exchange believes the proposal would enhance competition because including all of the exchanges enhances transparency and enables investors to better assess the quality of the Exchange’s execution and routing services. 3 15 4 15 PO 00000 U.S.C. 78f.

Self-Regulatory Organization’s Statement on Comments on the Proposed Rule Change Received From Members, Participants, or Others No written comments were either solicited or received. III. Date of Effectiveness of the Proposed Rule Change and Timing for Commission Action Because the foregoing 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 for 30 days from the date on which it was filed, or such shorter time as the Commission may designate, it has become effective pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A) 5 of the Act and Rule 19b– 4(f)(6) thereunder.6 The Exchange believes that this proposed rule change is properly designated as noncontroversial because it enhances clarity and operational transparency without modifying members’ rights or obligations. The Exchange provided notice of the proposed rule change on July 27, 2015. At any time within 60 days of the filing of the proposed rule change, the Commission summarily may temporarily suspend such rule change if it appears to the Commission that such action is: (i) Necessary or appropriate in the public interest; (ii) for the protection of investors; or (iii) otherwise in furtherance of the purposes of the Act.

Self-Regulatory Organization’s Statement of the Purpose of, and Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change 1. Purpose The Exchange proposes to amend Rule 961 to establish Exchange rules governing the ‘‘give up’’ of a Clearing Member 4 by ATP Holders. In addition, the Exchange proposes changes to Rules 960 and 954NY to reflect proposed amendments to Rule 961. The Exchange believes that this proposal to include the give-up process in Exchange rules would result in the fair and reasonable use of resources by both the Exchange and ATP Holders. In addition, the proposed change would align the Exchange with competing options exchanges that have recently adopted rules consistent with this proposal.5 By way of background, to enter transactions on the Exchange, an ATP Holder must either be a Clearing Member or must have a Clearing Member agree to accept financial responsibility for all of its transactions. Specifically, Rule 961 provides that every Clearing Member will be responsible for the clearance of Exchange option transactions of ATP Holder that gives up the Clearing Member’s name in an Exchange option transaction, provided the clearing member has authorized such member or member organization to give up its name with respect to Exchange option transactions.6 In addition, Rule 954NY(a) (Order Identification) provides that for each transaction in which an ATP Holder participates, the ATP Holder must give up the name of the Clearing Member through whom the transaction will be cleared. The 4 Rule 900.2NY (11) defines ‘‘Clearing Member’’ as an Exchange ATP Holder which has been admitted to membership in the Options Clearing Corporation pursuant to the provisions of the Rules of the Options Clearing Corporation. 5 See Securities and Exchange Act Release No. 72668 (July 24, 2014), 79 FR 44229 (July 30, 2014) (SR–CBOE–2014–048) (order approving proposed rule change relating to the ‘‘give up’’ process, the process by which a Trading Permit Holder ‘‘gives up’’ or selects and indicates the Clearing Trading Permit Holder responsible for the clearance of an Exchange transaction). See also Securities Exchange Act Release No. 72325 (June 5, 2014), 79 FR 33614 (June 11, 2014) (Notice). The Exchange notes that this proposal is a copycat filing, which is substantially similar in all material respects to the give-up process approved on CBOE, except as noted herein. See infra n. 14 (regarding rule text in amended Rule 961(f) explicitly describing procedures for Guarantors to reject a trade). 6 See also Rule 960 (General Comparison and Clearance Rule) (providing that all Exchange transactions shall be submitted to the Exchange for comparison of trade information, and all compared transactions shall be cleared through the Options Clearing Corporation and shall be subject to the Rules of the Options Clearing Corporation).

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 update and amend the table in Exchange 
Rule 3304 that sets forth on a market-by-market basis the specific 
network processor and proprietary data feeds that the Exchange utilizes 
for the handling, routing, and execution of orders, and for performing 
the regulatory compliance checks related to each of those functions.
    Specifically, the table will be amended to include National Stock 
Exchange (``NSX''), which has informed the UTP Securities Information 
Processor (``UTP SIP'') that, subject to regulatory approval, it is 
projecting to reactivate its status as an operating participant for 
quotation and trading of NASDAQ-listed securities under the Unlisted 
Trading Privileges (``UTP'') Plan on or about August 31, 2015. The 
other changes to the table merely reflect updates to mirror the current 
network processor and proprietary data feeds utilized by the Exchange 
for the handling, routing, and execution of orders, and for performing 
the regulatory compliance checks related to each of those functions.
2. Statutory Basis
    The Exchange believes that the proposed rule change is consistent 
with the provisions of Section 6 of the Act,\3\ in general and with 
Sections 6(b)(5) of the Act,\4\ in particular in that it is designed to 
prevent fraudulent and manipulative acts and practices, 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.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ 15 U.S.C. 78f.
    \4\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange believes that its proposal to update the table in 
Exchange Rule 3304 to make certain it is current, as well as to amend 
the table to include NSX, would ensure that Exchange Rule 3304 
correctly identifies and publicly states on a market-by-market basis 
all of the specific network processor and proprietary data feeds that 
the Exchange utilizes for the handling, routing, and execution of 
orders, and for performing the regulatory compliance checks related to 
each of those functions, and that the proposed rule change removes 
impediments to and perfects the mechanism of a free and open market and 
protects investors and the public interest because it provides 
additional specificity, clarity and transparency.

B. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Burden on Competition

    The Exchange does not believe that the proposed rule change will 
result in any burden on competition that is not necessary or 
appropriate in furtherance of the purposes of the Act, as amended. To 
the contrary, the Exchange believes the proposal would enhance 
competition because including all of the exchanges enhances 
transparency and enables investors to better assess the quality of the 
Exchange's execution and routing services.

C. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Comments on the Proposed 
Rule Change Received From Members, Participants, or Others

    No written comments were either solicited or received.

III. Date of Effectiveness of the Proposed Rule Change and Timing for 
Commission Action

    Because the foregoing 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 for 30 days from the date on which it was filed, or 
such shorter time as the Commission may designate, it has become 
effective pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A) \5\ of the Act and Rule 19b-
4(f)(6) thereunder.\6\ The Exchange believes that this proposed rule 
change is properly designated as non-controversial because it enhances 
clarity and operational transparency without modifying members' rights 
or obligations. The Exchange provided notice of the proposed rule 
change on July 27, 2015.

    At any time within 60 days of the filing of the proposed rule 
change, the Commission summarily may temporarily suspend such rule 
change if it appears to the Commission that such action is: (i) 
Necessary or appropriate in the public interest; (ii) for the 
protection of investors; or (iii) otherwise in furtherance of the 
purposes of the Act. If the Commission takes such action, the 
Commission shall institute proceedings to determine whether the 
proposed rule should be approved or disapproved.

change is consistent with the Act. Comments may be submitted by any of
