Self-Regulatory Organization’s Statement of the Terms of Substance of the Proposed Rule Change Cboe EDGX Exchange, Inc. (the ‘‘Exchange’’ or ‘‘EDGX’’) is filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (‘‘Commission’’) a proposed rule change to modify its fee schedule. 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 1 15 2 17 U.S.C. 78s(b)(1). CFR 240.19b–4. E:\FR\FM\16NON1.SGM 16NON1 57756 Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 222 / Friday, November 16, 2018 / Notices 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 amozie on DSK3GDR082PROD with NOTICES 1. Purpose The Exchange proposes to amend its Fees Schedule to correct an inadvertent oversight to update an amended transaction fee in a footnote. Specifically, on August 8, 2018, the Exchange filed a rule filing, SRCboeEDGX–2018–032, which proposed, among other things, to increase the standard rate for Bats Auction Mechanism (‘‘BAM’’) Contra orders (i.e., yields fee code BB) from $0.04 per contract to $0.05 per contract, effective August 1, 2018.3 The Exchange notes that although it reflected the rate increase in the Fee Codes and Associated Fees table, it mistakenly failed to update the rate referenced under Footnote 6 of the Fees Schedule, which includes a table setting forth BAM Pricing. Accordingly, the Exchange proposes to update the listed BAM Contra Rate under Footnote 6 from $0.04 per contract to $0.05 per contract. No substantive changes are being made by the proposed rule change. 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.4 Specifically, the Exchange believes the proposed rule change is consistent with the Section 6(b)(5) 5 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. The Exchange believes the proposed rule change to update an inaccurate rate under a footnote of the Fees Schedule, 3 See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 83846 (August 14, 2018), 83 FR 42175 (August 20, 2018) (SR–CboeEDGX–2018–032). 4 15 U.S.C. 78f(b). 5 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5). VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:19 Nov 15, 2018 Jkt 247001 will alleviate potential confusion, thereby removing impediments to and perfecting the mechanism of a free and open market and a national market system and protecting investors and the public interest. As noted above, the proposed filing does not substantively change any transaction fees, but merely corrects an inadvertent oversight from a previous rule filing to update the rate under a footnote. Comments may be submitted by any of the following methods: B. Self-Regulatory Organization’s Statement on Burden on Competition Paper Comments The Exchange does not believe that the proposed rule change will impose any burden on competition that is not necessary or appropriate in furtherance of the purposes of the Act. The proposed rule change does not address competitive issues, but rather, as discussed above, is merely intended to correct an inadvertent marking omission relating to a rate change made in a previous rule filing, which will alleviate potential confusion. C. Self-Regulatory Organization’s Statement on Comments on the Proposed Rule Change Received From Members, Participants or Others The Exchange has not solicited, and does not intend to solicit, comments on this proposed rule change. The Exchange has not received any written comments from members or other interested parties. 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. If the Commission takes such action, the Commission will institute proceedings to determine whether the proposed rule change should be approved or disapproved. IV. Solicitation of Comments Interested persons are invited to submit written data, views, and arguments concerning the foregoing, including whether the proposed rule change is consistent with the Act.

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 amend its Fees Schedule to correct an 
inadvertent oversight to update an amended transaction fee in a 
footnote. Specifically, on August 8, 2018, the Exchange filed a rule 
filing, SR-CboeEDGX-2018-032, which proposed, among other things, to 
increase the standard rate for Bats Auction Mechanism (``BAM'') Contra 
orders (i.e., yields fee code BB) from $0.04 per contract to $0.05 per 
contract, effective August 1, 2018.\3\ The Exchange notes that although 
it reflected the rate increase in the Fee Codes and Associated Fees 
table, it mistakenly failed to update the rate referenced under 
Footnote 6 of the Fees Schedule, which includes a table setting forth 
BAM Pricing. Accordingly, the Exchange proposes to update the listed 
BAM Contra Rate under Footnote 6 from $0.04 per contract to $0.05 per 
contract. No substantive changes are being made by the proposed rule 
change.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 83846 (August 14, 
2018), 83 FR 42175 (August 20, 2018) (SR-CboeEDGX-2018-032).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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.\4\ Specifically, the 
Exchange believes the proposed rule change is consistent with the 
Section 6(b)(5) \5\ 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.

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

    The Exchange believes the proposed rule change to update an 
inaccurate rate under a footnote of the Fees Schedule, will alleviate 
potential confusion, thereby removing impediments to and perfecting the 
mechanism of a free and open market and a national market system and 
protecting investors and the public interest. As noted above, the 
proposed filing does not substantively change any transaction fees, but 
merely corrects an inadvertent oversight from a previous rule filing to 
update the rate under a footnote.

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 competition that is not necessary or appropriate 
in furtherance of the purposes of the Act. The proposed rule change 
does not address competitive issues, but rather, as discussed above, is 
merely intended to correct an inadvertent marking omission relating to 
a rate change made in a previous rule filing, which will alleviate 
potential confusion.

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

    The Exchange has not solicited, and does not intend to solicit,

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

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. If the Commission
