Certain parts of Chapter 1 reflect statutory requirements with limited additional guidance and will not be updated. The following are examples of parts in Subtitle A that may be under consideration for the next revision: • Part 25: Universal Identifier and Systems for Award Managements • Part 170: Reporting Subaward and Executive Compensation Information • Part 200: Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards In this notice, OMB is providing an opportunity for members of the public to provide comments on 2 CFR. Feedback provided should support the following goals of OMB’s forthcoming revision: (1) revise guidance to incorporate statutory requirements and administration priorities; (2) revise guidance to reduce agency and recipient burden; (3) clarify guidance by addressing sections that recipients or agencies have interpreted in different ways; and (4) clarify guidance by rewriting applicable sections in plain English, improving flow, and addressing inconsistent use of terms. The revision will not represent a complete revision or restructuring of 2 CFR. OMB will strive to maintain the same overall structure of 2 CFR, including section numbers. OMB seeks responses to one, some, or all of the following questions. Please note the current version of 2 CRF is located at https://www.ecfr/current/title2. Where possible, include specific examples of how you or your organization is or would be impacted negatively or positively by specific sections of 2 CFR and, if applicable, provide references to any reports, articles, or other source material supporting your position. If you believe the current language should be revised, suggest an alternative (which may include not providing guidance at all) and include an explanation, analysis, or both, of how the alternative might meet the same objective or be more effective. Comments on the economic effects including quantitative and qualitative data are especially helpful. 1. What specific section(s) of 2 CFR would benefit from revision in order to support the goal of reducing administrative burden? 2. What specific section(s) of 2 CFR have been interpreted differently by Federal agencies and recipients leading to inconsistent implementation of Federal financial assistance? VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:28 Feb 08, 2023 Jkt 259001 3. What specific section(s) of 2 CFR would benefit from improved clarity or more precise language? 4.

The 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 SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION VerDate Sep<11>2014 I. Self-Regulatory Organization’s Statement of the Terms of Substance of the Proposed Rule Change The Exchange is filing with the Commission a proposed rule change to amend the Exchange’s fee schedule applicable to Members 3 (the ‘‘Fee Schedule’’) pursuant to Exchange Rules 15.1(a) and (c). The Exchange proposes to implement the changes to the Fee Schedule pursuant to this proposal on February 1, 2023. The text of the proposed rule change is provided in Exhibit 5. 1. Purpose The purpose of the proposed rule change is to amend the Fee Schedule to: (i) adopt new pricing for executions of orders subject to the Exchange’s Display-Price Sliding 4 that add liquidity to the Exchange and receive price improvement over the order’s ranked price when executed; (ii) adopt a new tier under the Liquidity Provision Tiers; and (iii) modify the required criteria under the Sub-Dollar Rebate Tier. The Exchange first notes that it operates in a highly competitive market in which market participants can readily direct order flow to competing venues if they deem fee levels at a particular venue to be excessive or incentives to be insufficient. More specifically, the Exchange is only one of 16 registered equities exchanges, as well as a number of alternative trading systems and other off-exchange venues, to which market participants may direct their order flow. Based on publicly available information, no single registered equities exchange currently has more than approximately 15% of 3 See 4 See PO 00000 Exchange Rule 1.5(p). Exchange Rule 11.6(j)(1)(A). Frm 00086 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 the total market share of executed volume of equities trading.5 Thus, in such a low-concentrated and highly competitive market, no single equities exchange possesses significant pricing power in the execution of order flow, and the Exchange currently represents approximately 3% of the overall market share.6 The Exchange in particular operates a ‘‘Maker-Taker’’ model whereby it provides rebates to Members that add liquidity to the Exchange and charges fees to Members that remove liquidity from the Exchange. The Fee Schedule sets forth the standard rebates and fees applied per share for orders that add and remove liquidity, respectively. Additionally, in response to the competitive environment, the Exchange also offers tiered pricing, which provides Members with opportunities to qualify for higher rebates or lower fees where certain volume criteria and thresholds are met. Tiered pricing provides an incremental incentive for Members to strive for higher tier levels, which provides increasingly higher benefits or discounts for satisfying increasingly more stringent criteria. Orders Subject to Display-Price Sliding The Exchange currently provides a base rebate of $0.0020 per share for executions of orders in securities priced at or above $1.00 per share that add displayed liquidity to the Exchange (such orders, ‘‘Added Displayed Volume’’). The Exchange also currently provides a base rebate of 0.075% of the total dollar value of the transaction for executions of orders in securities priced below $1.00 per share that add displayed liquidity to the Exchange (such orders, ‘‘Added Displayed SubDollar Volume’’). The Exchange is now proposing to adopt new pricing for executions of orders subject to Display-Price Sliding that add liquidity to the Exchange and receive price improvement over the order’s ranked price when executed (such orders ‘‘Added Price-Improved Volume’’). Specifically, the Exchange proposes to provide a base rebate of $0.0015 per share for executions of Added Price-Improved Volume in securities priced at or above $1.00 per share, and the Exchange proposes to provide free executions of Added PriceImproved Volume in securities priced below $1.00 per share.7 Thus, the 5 Market share percentage calculated as of January 30, 2023. The Exchange receives and processes data made available through consolidated data feeds (i.e., CTS and UTDF). 6 Id. 7 The proposed pricing for executions of Added Price-Improved Volume is referred to by the E:\FR\FM\09FEN1.SGM 09FEN1
