notice is hereby given that on August 8,

‘‘Exchange’’ or ‘‘EDGX’’) filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission
(‘‘Commission’’) the proposed rule
change as described in Items I, II and III

Non-Penny Pilot (‘‘Non-Penny’’)
Securities; (ii) increase the standard
rates for Market-Maker orders that
remove liquidity in Penny and NonPenny Securities; (iii) increase the
standard rate for BAM Contra orders;
(iv) amend the Customer Volume Tiers;
(v) amend the Complex Customer Penny
Tiers; (vi) amend the Complex Customer
Non-Penny Tiers; and (vii) and
eliminate the Complex Market-Maker
Penny and Non-Penny Tiers.6
Complex Order, Customer (Contra NonCustomer) Penny and Non-Penny
Rebates
Currently, the Exchange applies fee
code ZA to Customer complex orders
that are executed on the complex order
book (‘‘COB’’) with a non-Customer 7 as
the contra-party in Penny Securities and
provides such orders a rebate of $0.47
per contract. The Exchange also
currently applies fee code ZB to
Customer complex orders that are
executed on the COB with a nonCustomer as the contra-party in NonPenny Securities and provides such
orders a rebate of $0.97 per contract.
The Exchange proposes to reduce the
rebates for these orders. Particularly, the
Exchange proposes to reduce the rebate
for Customer complex orders with a
non-Customer as the contra party in
Penny Securities from $0.47 per
contract to $0.45 per contract. The
Exchange proposes to reduce the rebate
for Customer complex orders with a
non-Customer as the contra party in
Non-Penny Securities from $0.97 per
contract to $0.80 per contract.
Market Maker Remove Rate, Penny and
Non-Penny
By way of background, fee codes PT
and NT are currently appended to all
Market Maker orders in Penny
Securities and Non-Penny Securities,
respectively, that remove liquidity, and
result in a standard fee of $0.19 per
contract. The Exchange proposes to
increase the standard fee of $0.19 per
contract for Market Maker orders in
Penny and Non-Penny Securities that
remove liquidity to $0.23 per contract.
The Exchange notes that this increase is
in line with the amounts assessed by
other exchanges for similar
transactions.8
6 The Exchange initially filed the proposed fee
changes on August 1, 2018 (SR–CboeEDGX–2018–
026) for August 1, 2018 effectiveness. On business
date August 8, 2018, the Exchange withdrew that
filing and submitted this filing.
7 ‘‘Non-Customer’’ applies to any transaction that
is not a Customer order. See EDGX Options
Exchange Fee Schedule.
8 See e.g., Nasdaq PHLX LLC Pricing Schedule,
Section II, Multiply Listed Options Fees. See also
