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
self-regulatory organization 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 self-regulatory organization 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 add
Section VIII.B. (Fee Disputes) to the
BOX Fee Schedule. Specifically, the
Exchange proposes that all fee disputes
concerning fees which are billed by the
Exchange must be submitted to the
Exchange in writing and must be
accompanied by supporting
documentation. All fee disputes must be
submitted no later than sixty (60)
calendar days after receipt of billing
invoice. The Exchange notes that similar
language exists at other options
exchanges in the industry.3

notice is hereby given that on February

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

Federal Register / Vol. 84, No. 52 / Monday, March 18, 2019 / Notices
The Exchange provides Participants
with both daily and monthly fee reports
and thus believes Participants should be
aware of any potential billing errors
within sixty calendar days of receiving
an invoice. Requiring that Participants
dispute an invoice within this time
period will encourage them to promptly
review their invoices so that any
disputed charges can be addressed in a
timely manner while the information
and data underlying those charges (e.g.
applicable fees and order information) is
still easily and readily available. This
practice will avoid issues that may arise
when Participants do not dispute an
invoice in a timely manner, and will
conserve Exchange resources that would
have to be expended to resolve untimely
billing disputes. The Exchange notes
that this type of provision is common
among other exchanges, which require
that Participants dispute invoices
within sixty days.4
The sixty days would first apply to
invoices related to transactional billing
in March 2019 and would apply
thereafter. The Exchange proposes to
apply the billing policy to all charges
reflected in the BOX Fee Schedule.
2. Statutory Basis
The Exchange believes that the
proposal is consistent with the
requirements of Section 6(b) of the Act,5
in general, and Section 6(b)(5) of the
Act,6 in particular, in that it is designed
to promote just and equitable principles
of trade, remove impediments to and
perfect the mechanism of a free and
open market and a national market
system, and, in general protect investors
and the public interest, by providing a
uniform practice for disputing fees.
The Exchange believes the
requirement that all billing disputes
must be submitted, in writing, and with
supporting documentation, within sixty
calendar days from receipt of the
invoice is reasonable and in the public
interest because the Exchange provides
ample tools to properly and swiftly
monitor and account for various charges
incurred in a given month. Specifically,
the Exchange sends a monthly PDF
invoice to all billing contacts outlining
the charges, as well as daily and
monthly transaction details to assist
with monitoring trade-related charges.
Moreover, the proposed fee dispute
language, which will lower the
Exchange’s administrative burden, is
substantially similar to billing dispute
language at other options exchanges.7

Also, the Exchange’s administrative
costs would be lowered as a result of
this policy because staff resources
would not be diverted to review
untimely requests regarding billing.
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.
B. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement on Burden on Competition
The Exchange notes note believe that
the proposed change will impose any
burden on competition that is not
necessary or appropriate in furtherance
of the purposes of the Act. The billing
policy would apply uniformly to all
BOX Participants. As discussed herein,
the policy is similar to policies in place
by other options exchanges.8
Further, this proposal would provide
a cost savings to the Exchange in that it
would alleviate processes related to the
untimely review of billing disputes
which divert staff resources away from
the Exchange’s regulatory and business
purposes.
As such, the Exchange does not
believe that the proposed rule change
will impose any burden on competition
not necessary or appropriate in
furtherance of the purposes of the Act.
IV. Solicitation of Comments
C. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement on Comments on the
Proposed Rule Change Received From
Members, Participants, or Others
The Exchange has neither solicited
nor received comments on the proposed
rule change.
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 after the date of
the filing, or such shorter time as the
Commission may designate, it has
become effective pursuant to 19(b)(3)(A)
of the Act 9 and Rule 19b–4(f)(6) 10
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: (i) Necessary or appropriate in
the public interest; (ii) for the protection
of investors; or (iii) otherwise in

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
Board, created in 1996 to take over
many of the functions previously
performed by the Interstate Commerce
Commission, exercises broad authority
over transportation by rail carriers,
including regulation of railroad rates
and service (49 U.S.C. 10701–47,
11101–24), the construction,
acquisition, operation, and
abandonment of rail lines (49 U.S.C.
10901–07), as well as railroad line sales,
consolidations, mergers, and common
control arrangements (49 U.S.C. 10902,
11323–27).
The ICC Termination Act of 1995
(ICCTA), enacted on December 29, 1995,
established RSTAC to advise the Board’s
Chairman, the Secretary of
Transportation, the Committee on
Commerce, Science, and Transportation
of the Senate, and the Committee on
Transportation and Infrastructure of the
House of Representatives with respect to
rail transportation policy issues RSTAC
considers significant. RSTAC focuses on
issues of importance to small shippers
and small railroads, including car
supply, rates, competition, and
procedures for addressing claims.
ICCTA instructs RSTAC to endeavor to
develop private-sector mechanisms to
prevent, or identify and address,
obstacles to the most effective and
efficient transportation system
practicable. The members of RSTAC
also prepare an annual report
concerning RSTAC’s activities. RSTAC
is not subject to the Federal Advisory
Committee Act.
RSTAC’s 15 appointed members
consist of representatives of small and
large shippers, and small and large
railroads. In addition, members of the
Board and the Secretary of
Transportation serve as ex officio
members. Of the 15 appointed members,
nine are voting members and are
appointed from senior executive officers
of organizations engaged in the railroad
and rail shipping industries. At least
four of the voting members must be
representatives of small shippers as
determined by the Chairman, and at
least four of the voting members must be
representatives of Class II or III
railroads. The remaining six members to
be appointed—three representing Class I
railroads and three representing large
shipper organizations—serve in a
nonvoting, advisory capacity, but may
participate in RSTAC deliberations.
Meetings of RSTAC are required by
statute to be held at least semi-annually.

Self-Regulatory Organizations; BOX Exchange LLC; Notice of Filing
and Immediate Effectiveness of a Proposed Rule Change To Amend the BOX
Fee Schedule
March 12, 2019.
Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
(``Act''),\1\ and Rule 19b-4 thereunder,\2\ notice is hereby given that
on February 28, 2019, BOX Exchange LLC (``Exchange'') filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (``Commission'') the proposed rule
change as described in Items I and II 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.

\2\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
I. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Terms of Substance
of the Proposed Rule Change
The Exchange proposes to amend to BOX Fee Schedule. The text of the
proposed rule change is available from the principal office of the
Exchange, at the Commission's Public Reference Room and also on the
Exchange's internet website at https://boxoptions.com.
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 self-regulatory organization
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 self-regulatory organization
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 add Section VIII.B. (Fee Disputes) to the
BOX Fee Schedule. Specifically, the Exchange proposes that all fee
disputes concerning fees which are billed by the Exchange must be
submitted to the Exchange in writing and must be accompanied by
supporting documentation. All fee disputes must be submitted no later
than sixty (60) calendar days after receipt of billing invoice. The
Exchange notes that similar language exists at other options exchanges
in the industry.\3\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\3\ See Nasdaq ISE, LLC (``ISE'') Options 7 Pricing Schedule
Section 1(b). See also Miami International Securities Exchange LLC
(``MIAX'') Fee Schedule cover page.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
[[Page 9857]]
The Exchange provides Participants with both daily and monthly fee
reports and thus believes Participants should be aware of any potential
billing errors within sixty calendar days of receiving an invoice.
Requiring that Participants dispute an invoice within this time period
will encourage them to promptly review their invoices so that any
disputed charges can be addressed in a timely manner while the
information and data underlying those charges (e.g. applicable fees and
order information) is still easily and readily available. This practice
will avoid issues that may arise when Participants do not dispute an
invoice in a timely manner, and will conserve Exchange resources that
would have to be expended to resolve untimely billing disputes. The
Exchange notes that this type of provision is common among other
exchanges, which require that Participants dispute invoices within
sixty days.\4\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\4\ Id.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The sixty days would first apply to invoices related to
transactional billing in March 2019 and would apply thereafter. The
Exchange proposes to apply the billing policy to all charges reflected
in the BOX Fee Schedule.
2. Statutory Basis
The Exchange believes that the proposal is consistent with the
requirements of Section 6(b) of the Act,\5\ in general, and Section
6(b)(5) of the Act,\6\ in particular, in that it is designed to promote
just and equitable principles of trade, remove impediments to and
perfect the mechanism of a free and open market and a national market
system, and, in general protect investors and the public interest, by
providing a uniform practice for disputing fees.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\5\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b).
\6\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Exchange believes the requirement that all billing disputes
must be submitted, in writing, and with supporting documentation,
within sixty calendar days from receipt of the invoice is reasonable
and in the public interest because the Exchange provides ample tools to
properly and swiftly monitor and account for various charges incurred
in a given month. Specifically, the Exchange sends a monthly PDF
invoice to all billing contacts outlining the charges, as well as daily
and monthly transaction details to assist with monitoring trade-related
charges. Moreover, the proposed fee dispute language, which will lower
the Exchange's administrative burden, is substantially similar to
billing dispute language at other options exchanges.\7\ Also, the
Exchange's administrative costs would be lowered as a result of this
policy because staff resources would not be diverted to review untimely
requests regarding billing.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\7\ See supra note 3.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
B. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Burden on Competition
The Exchange notes note believe that the proposed change will
impose any burden on competition that is not necessary or appropriate
in furtherance of the purposes of the Act. The billing policy would
apply uniformly to all BOX Participants. As discussed herein, the
policy is similar to policies in place by other options exchanges.\8\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\8\ Id.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Further, this proposal would provide a cost savings to the Exchange
in that it would alleviate processes related to the untimely review of
billing disputes which divert staff resources away from the Exchange's
regulatory and business purposes.
As such, the Exchange does not believe that the proposed rule
change will impose any burden on competition not necessary or
appropriate in furtherance of the purposes of the Act.
C. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Comments on the Proposed
Rule Change Received From Members, Participants, or Others
The Exchange has neither solicited nor received comments on the
proposed rule change.
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 after the date of the filing, or such
shorter time as the Commission may designate, it has become effective
pursuant to 19(b)(3)(A) of the Act \9\ and Rule 19b-4(f)(6) \10\
thereunder.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\9\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A).
\10\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6). In addition, Rule 19b-4(f)(6)
requires a self-regulatory organization to give the Commission
written notice of its intent to file the proposed rule change at
least five business days prior to the date of filing of the proposed
rule change, or such shorter time as designated by the Commission.
The Exchange has satisfied this requirement.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
