5 An ‘‘ROT’’ is a regular member of the Exchange
located on the trading floor who has received
permission from the Exchange to trade in options
for his own account. See Phlx Rule 1014(b)(i). A
‘‘Streaming Quote Trader’’ or ‘‘SQT’’ is an ROT who
has received permission from the Exchange to
generate and submit option quotations
electronically in options to which such SQT is
assigned. An SQT may only submit such quotations
while such SQT is physically present on the floor
of the Exchange. An SQT may only trade in a

which the SQT is assigned. See Phlx Rule
1014(b)(ii)(A).

is an ROT that is a member affiliated with a
‘‘Remote Streaming Quote Trader Organization’’ or
‘‘RSQTO’’ with no physical trading floor presence
who has received permission from the Exchange to
generate and submit option quotations
electronically in options to which such RSQT has
been assigned. See Phlx Rule 1014(b)(ii)(B). See also
Phlx Rule 507(a).
7 A ‘‘Directed SQT’’ or ‘‘Directed RSQT’’ is an
SQT or RSQT that receives a Directed Order. A
‘‘Directed Order’’ is any order (other than a stop or
stop-limit order as defined in Phlx Rule 1066) to
buy or sell which has been directed to a particular
Specialist, RSQT, or SQT by an Order Flow
Provider. An ‘‘Order Flow Provider’’ is any member
or member organization that submits, as agent,
orders to the Exchange. See Phlx Rule 1068(a)(i).
8 A ‘‘Specialist’’ is an Exchange member who is
registered as an options specialist pursuant to Phlx
Rule 501 and Phlx Rule 1020(a). A ‘‘Remote
Specialist’’ is an options specialist that does not
have a physical presence on an Exchange floor. See
Phlx Rule 1020(a)(i) and (ii).
9 The ‘‘System’’ is the automated system for order
execution and trade reporting owned and operated
by the Exchange which comprises: (A) An order
execution service that enables members to
automatically execute transactions in ‘‘System
Securities’’ (defined as all options that are currently
trading on the System); and provides members with
sufficient monitoring and updating capability to
participate in an automated execution environment;
(B) a trade reporting service that submits ‘‘lockedin’’ trades for clearing to a registered clearing
agency for clearance and settlement; transmits lastsale reports of transactions automatically to the
Options Price Reporting Authority for
dissemination to the public and industry; and
provides participants with monitoring and risk
management capabilities to facilitate participation
in a ‘‘locked-in’’ trading environment; and (C) the
data feeds described in Phlx Rule 1070. See Phlx
Rule 1000(b)(45) and (46).
