Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) 1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (‘‘Act’’) 2 and Rule 19b–4 thereunder,3 notice is hereby given that, on August 1, 2022, New York Stock Exchange LLC (‘‘NYSE’’ or the ‘‘Exchange’’) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the ‘‘Commission’’) the proposed rule change as described in Items I, II, and III below, which Items have been prepared by the selfregulatory organization. The Commission is publishing this notice to solicit comments on the proposed rule change from interested persons. I. Self-Regulatory Organization’s Statement of the Terms of Substance of the Proposed Rule Change The Exchange proposes to the NYSE Equities Proprietary Market Data Fees (‘‘Fee Schedule’’) to establish a Professional User Fee Cap and an Enterprise Fee for Broker-Dealer subscribers of NYSE OpenBook. The proposed rule change is available on the Exchange’s website at www.nyse.com, at the principal office of the Exchange, 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 self-regulatory organization included statements concerning the purpose of, and basis for, the proposed rule change and discussed any comments it received 13 17 CFR 200.30–3(a)(57).

The text of those statements may be examined at the places specified in Item IV below. The Exchange has prepared summaries, set forth in sections A, B, and C below, of the most significant parts of such statements. A. Self-Regulatory Organization’s Statement of the Purpose of, and the Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change 1. Purpose The Exchange proposes changes to the Fee Schedule to establish a Professional User Fee Cap and an Enterprise Fee for Broker-Dealer subscribers of NYSE OpenBook. The Exchange proposes to make these fee changes operative on August 1, 2022. The Exchange currently offers a NonProfessional User Fee Cap for brokerdealers that are subscribers of NYSE OpenBook at $25,000 per month.4 To illustrate the application of the NonProfessional User Fee Cap, absent the fee cap, a broker-dealer with 2,500 external non-professional users who receives NYSE OpenBook would pay $37,500 per month in professional user fees (2,500 users at $15 per month).5 This broker-dealer’s fees, however, are currently capped at $25,000 per month. With this proposed rule change, the Exchange proposes to establish a Professional User Fee Cap for brokerdealers that are subscribers of NYSE OpenBook at $35,000 per month for internal and external professional users to whom the broker-dealer may redistribute NYSE OpenBook data. To illustrate the application of the proposed Professional User Fee Cap, a broker-dealer with 5,000 professional users who receives NYSE OpenBook would pay $300,000 per month in professional user fees (5,000 users at $60 per month per user).6 However, the operation of the proposed cap would cause this broker-dealer’s professional user fees to drop to $35,000 per month. Subscribers with more than 583 professional users would significantly 4 See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 59544 (March 9, 2009), 74 FR 11162 (March 16, 2009) (SR– NYSE–2008–131) (Order Approving Proposed Rule Change To Introduce a NYSE OpenBook Nonprofessional Subscriber Fee). The NonProfessional User Fee Cap applies to external users of a broker-dealer subscriber. 5 The non-professional user fee for broker-dealer subscribers of NYSE OpenBook is $15 per month per user. See Fee Schedule, available here: https:// www.nyse.com/publicdocs/nyse/data/NYSE_ Market_Data_Fee_Schedule.pdf. 6 The professional user fees for broker-dealer subscribers of NYSE OpenBook is $60 per month per user.
