Today, the Exchange assesses a $0.10
per contract Complex Order Fee for PIM
Orders to all Non-Priority Customer 5
market participants (Market Makers,6

Priority Customers 12 are not assessed
Complex Order Fee for PIM Orders in
Select and Non-Select Symbols. Today,
note 9 to Options 7, Section 4, reduces
the $0.10 per contract fee to $0.05 per
contract for all Non-Priority Customer
orders provided Members execute an
average daily volume (‘‘ADV’’) of 7,500
or more contracts in the PIM in a given
month. Further, the $0.10 per contract
Complex Order Fee for PIM Orders is
reduced to $0.00 per contract for all
Member orders provided the Members
execute an ADV of 12,500 or more
contracts in the Complex PIM. The
Exchange applies the discounted fees
retroactively to all eligible Complex PIM
volume in that month once the
threshold has been reached.
Additionally, Complex Order Fees for
PIM Orders (including Complex PIM
Orders) apply to the originating and
contra order.13
Proposal
At this time, the Exchange proposes to
amend note 9 of Options 7, Section 4 to
revise the second sentence to instead
provide that ‘‘Other than for Priority
Customer orders, Members that execute
an ADV of 12,500 or more contracts in
a given month in the Complex PIM will
be charged a $0.02 per contract fee.’’
The Exchange will continue to reduce
the Complex Order Fees for PIM Orders
from $0.10 to $0.05 per contract for all
Non-Priority Customers that execute an
ADV of 7,500 or more contracts in the
Complex PIM in a given month. At this
time, the Exchange would decrease the
reduction for Complex Order Fees for
Complex PIM Orders for Non-Priority
