RLG, RLV, RUI and UKXM Currently, RLG, RLV, RUI and UKXM sit in line items in the Fees Schedule along with other products (e.g., VIX, OEX, XEO, and/or RUT) which have corresponding fee rates that are different than that of RLG, RLV, RUI and UKXM. Footnote 40 is appended to RLG, RLV, RUI and UKXM within these line items and states only that it is $0.00 for transactions in RLG, RLV, RUI and UKXM. The Exchange believes that footnote 40 is no longer necessary and 6 PO 00000 Frm 00062 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 14513 3 15 4 17 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A)(iii). CFR 240.19b–4(f)(6). E:\FR\FM\12MRN1.SGM 12MRN1
