There was only ever one User that purchased either an Option A or B bundle, and that User canceled its bundled service over a year ago, in July 2021. There are currently no purchasers of either Option A or B bundles. The Exchange does not expect demand for Options A and B to rebound given Users’ overall preference for larger port sizes to accommodate larger market data feeds. Removing references to the fees for these obsolete options from the Connectivity Fee Schedule would make the Connectivity Fee Schedule easier to read, understand, and administer. The Exchange believes that the proposed rule change does not significantly affect the protection of investors or the public interest. The proposed rule change would delete obsolete services from the Connectivity Fee Schedule in order to enhance transparency and alleviate potential customer confusion. The Exchange believes that deleting obsolete services from the Connectivity Fee Schedule would not permit unfair discrimination between customers, issuers, brokers, or dealers. The proposed changes would apply equally to all Users. For these reasons, the Exchange believes that the proposal is consistent with the Act. III. Date of Effectiveness of the Proposed Rule Change and Timing for Commission Action The Exchange has filed the proposed rule change pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A)(iii) of the Act 11 and Rule 19b–4(f)(6) thereunder.12 Because the 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 prior to 30 days from the date on which it was filed, or such shorter time as the Commission may designate, if consistent with the protection of investors and the public interest, the proposed rule change has become effective pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A) of the Act and Rule 19b–4(f)(6)(iii) thereunder. At any time within 60 days of the filing of such 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 shall institute proceedings under Section 19(b)(2)(B) 13 of the Act to determine whether the proposed rule change should be approved or disapproved. B. Self-Regulatory Organization’s Statement on Burden on Competition 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. Comments may be submitted by any of the following methods: khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with NOTICES In accordance with Section 6(b)(8) of the Act,10 the Exchange believes that the proposed rule change will not impose any burden on competition that is not necessary or appropriate in furtherance of the purposes of the Act. The Exchange believes that the proposed rule change would not place any burden on competition that is not necessary or appropriate in furtherance of the purposes of the Act.

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 September 21, 2022, NYSE Arca, Inc. (‘‘NYSE Arca’’ 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 amend the Connectivity Fee Schedule related to colocation to remove obsolete text. 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 on the proposed rule change. 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. khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with NOTICES A.

The Exchange understands that this fall-off in demand for the 1 Gb LCN port is due to the fact that market data feeds continue to increase in bandwidth, such that Users prefer to purchase larger port sizes. Based on this trend, the Exchange explained that it believes that there is no remaining User demand for the 1 Gb LCN port, and discontinued the service as obsolete. The same rationale applies equally to two of the Exchange’s Partial Cabinet Solution (‘‘PCS’’) bundles: Options A and B. Options A and B each include various bundled services, including, among other things, a 1 Gb LCN connection. Although Options A and B have been offered by the Exchange and its Affiliate SROs since 2016,6 no Users ever purchased an Option B bundle, and only one User purchased an Option A bundle, which it canceled in July 2021. There are currently no Users purchasing either an Option A or B bundle. Accordingly, the Exchange believes that there is no remaining User demand for Options A or B, and proposes to discontinue them as obsolete. Application and Impact of the Proposed Changes The Exchange does not expect that the proposed changes would have any impact. As noted above, there was only ever one User that purchased either an Option A or B bundle, and that User canceled its bundled service over a year ago, in July 2021. There are currently no purchasers of either Option A or B bundles. The proposed changes would not have any affect on the two remaining 4 The Exchange is an indirect subsidiary of Intercontinental Exchange, Inc. (‘‘ICE’’).
