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 April 2, 1 15 2 17 PO 00000 Frm 00060 Fmt 4703 2018, Cboe Exchange, Inc. (the ‘‘Exchange’’ or ‘‘Cboe Options’’) 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 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 adopt Fees related to PAR hardware. The text of the proposed rule change is also available on the Exchange’s website (https://www.cboe.com/ AboutCBOE/ CBOELegalRegulatoryHome.aspx), at the Exchange’s Office of the Secretary, 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 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 adopt Fees related to PAR hardware. Specifically, the Exchange proposes to assess fees for certain PAR related hardware that needs to be replaced due to loss or damage. Currently, the Exchange provides replacement PAR tablets, stylus, chargers, adapters and protective cases free of charge to Trading Permit Holders (‘‘TPHs’’). While the Exchange will continue to provide these initial items free of charge, as well as replace any defective items free of charge, it no longer wishes to subsidize items that need replacement because of loss or because of non-normal wear and tear. As such, the Exchange proposes to implement the following fees: Replacement Tablet ............... Replacement Stylus Pen ........ U.S.C. 78s(b)(1). CFR 240.19b–4.

Replacement adapters and protective cases. $75 each. $50 each. 2. Statutory Basis The Exchange believes the proposed rule change is consistent with the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the ‘‘Act’’) and the rules and regulations thereunder applicable to the Exchange and, in particular, the requirements of Section 6(b) of the Act.3 Specifically, the Exchange believes the proposed rule change is consistent with the Section 6(b)(5) 4 requirements that the rules of an exchange be 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. Additionally, the Exchange believes the proposed rule change is consistent with Section 6(b)(4) of the Act,5 which requires that Exchange rules provide for the equitable allocation of reasonable dues, fees, and other charges among its Trading Permit Holders and other persons using its facilities. The Exchange believes the proposed rule change is reasonable because the amount of fees assessed reflect the approximate cost to the Exchange to provide those items to TPHs. The Exchange believes it’s equitable and not unfairly discriminatory because TPHs that lose these items or damage these items from non-normal wear or tear should be responsible for the cost of replacement. The Exchange believes the proposed fees will encourage TPHs to take proper care of the above-mentioned PAR related hardware. As noted above, the Exchange will still provide the initial items free of charge and will also not charge TPHs to replace defective items (that were not the result of nonnormal wear and tear). amozie on DSK30RV082PROD with NOTICES B. Self-Regulatory Organization’s Statement on Burden on Competition The Exchange does not believe that the proposed rule change will impose any burden on intramarket or intermarket competition that is not necessary or appropriate in furtherance of the purposes of the Act. The Exchange notes that the proposed rule U.S.C. 78f(b). U.S.C. 78f(b)(5). 5 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(4). change applies to all TPHs that lose or damage the above-mentioned PAR related hardware. The Exchange also notes the proposed rule change is not intended for competitive purposes, but rather because the Exchange no longer wishes to subsidize TPHs for items they lose or break. C. Self-Regulatory Organization’s Statement on Comments on the Proposed Rule Change Received From Members, Participants, or Others The Exchange neither solicited nor received comments on the proposed rule change. III. Date of Effectiveness of the Proposed Rule Change and Timing for Commission Action The foregoing rule change has become effective pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A) of the Act 6 and paragraph (f) of Rule 19b–4 7 thereunder. 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 necessary or appropriate in the public interest, for the protection of investors, or otherwise in furtherance of the purposes of the Act.

A. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Purpose of, and 
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change

1. Purpose
    The Exchange proposes to adopt Fees related to PAR hardware. 
Specifically, the Exchange proposes to assess fees for certain PAR 
related hardware that needs to be replaced due to loss or damage. 
Currently, the Exchange provides replacement PAR tablets, stylus, 
chargers, adapters and protective cases free of charge to Trading 
Permit Holders (``TPHs''). While the Exchange will continue to provide 
these initial items free of charge, as well as replace any defective 
items free of charge, it no longer wishes to subsidize items that need 
replacement because of loss or because of non-normal wear and tear. As 
such, the Exchange proposes to implement the following fees:

 
 
 
Replacement Tablet.......................  $1,300 each.
Replacement Stylus Pen...................  $100 each.

[[Page 17198]]

 
Replacement Chargers.....................  $75 each.
Replacement adapters and protective cases  $50 each.
 

2. Statutory Basis
    The Exchange believes the proposed rule change is consistent with 
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the ``Act'') and the rules and 
regulations thereunder applicable to the Exchange and, in particular, 
the requirements of Section 6(b) of the Act.\3\ Specifically, the 
Exchange believes the proposed rule change is consistent with the 
Section 6(b)(5) \4\ requirements that the rules of an exchange be 
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. Additionally, 
the Exchange believes the proposed rule change is consistent with 
Section 6(b)(4) of the Act,\5\ which requires that Exchange rules 
provide for the equitable allocation of reasonable dues, fees, and 
other charges among its Trading Permit Holders and other persons using 
its facilities.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange believes the proposed rule change is reasonable 
because the amount of fees assessed reflect the approximate cost to the 
Exchange to provide those items to TPHs. The Exchange believes it's 
equitable and not unfairly discriminatory because TPHs that lose these 
items or damage these items from non-normal wear or tear should be

mentioned PAR related hardware. As noted above, the Exchange will still 
provide the initial items free of charge and will also not charge TPHs 
to replace defective items (that were not the result of non-normal wear 
and tear).

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

    The Exchange does not believe that the proposed rule change will 
impose any burden on intramarket or intermarket competition that is not 
necessary or appropriate in furtherance of the purposes of the Act. The 
Exchange notes that the proposed rule change applies to all TPHs that 
lose or damage the above-mentioned PAR related hardware. The Exchange 
also notes the proposed rule change is not intended for competitive 
purposes, but rather because the Exchange no longer wishes to subsidize 
TPHs for items they lose or break.

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

    The Exchange neither solicited nor received comments on the 
proposed rule change.
