SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-63656; File No. SR-CBOE-2011-003]

Self-Regulatory Organizations; Chicago Board Options Exchange,
Incorporated; Notice of Filing and Immediate Effectiveness of Proposed
Rule Change To Clarify Reciprocal Listing Respecting a $5 Strike
Program for Stock Options

January 6, 2011.
    Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
(the ``Act'') \1\ and Rule 19b-4 thereunder,\2\ notice is hereby given
that on January 4, 2011, the Chicago Board Options Exchange,
Incorporated (``Exchange'' or ``CBOE'') filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission (the ``Commission'') the proposed rule change as
described in Items I and II below, which Items have been prepared by
the Exchange. The Exchange filed the proposal as a ``non-
controversial'' proposed rule change pursuant to Section
19(b)(3)(A)(iii) of the Act \3\ and Rule 19b-4(f)(6) thereunder.\4\ 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

    CBOE proposes to clarify that the Exchange may list $5 strike
prices on any other option classes designated by other securities
exchanges that employ a $5 Strike Program. The text of the rule
proposal is available on the Exchange's Web site (http://www.cboe.org/legal), at the Exchange's Office of the Secretary, 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 these statements may be examined at
the places specified in Item IV below. The self-regulatory organization
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

1. Purpose
    Recently, the Exchange proposed to adopt a $5 Strike Program (by
modifying Interpretation and Policy .01 to Rule 5.5), which will allow
the Exchange to list and trade series in intervals of $5 or greater
where the strike price is more than $200 in up to five (5) option
classes on individual stocks (``$5 Strike Program'').\5\ The purpose of
this proposed rule change is to amend the text of Rule 5.5.01 to
clarify that the Exchange may list $5 strike prices on any other option
classes designated by other securities exchanges that employ a $5
Strike Program.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ See SR-CBOE-2011-002.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange has several strike setting programs that permit the
Exchange to choose a fixed number of classes to participate in the
programs. For each of these programs, the Exchange's rules also
expressly set forth reciprocity provisions.\6\ In other words, the
Exchange is permitted to list series for classes that are selected by
other securities exchanges that employ similar programs under their
respective rules.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ See Rules 5.5(d)(1) and 24.9(a)(2)(A)(i), which permit the
Exchange to select five option classes to participate in the Short
Term Option Series Program and to also list Short Term Option Series
on any option classes that are selected by other securities
exchanges that employ a similar program under their rules. See also
Rules 5.5(e)(1) and 24.9(a)(2)(B)(i), which permit the Exchange to
select five option classes to participate in the Quarterly Option
Series Program and to also list Quarterly Option Series on any
option classes that are selected by other securities exchanges that
employ a similar program under their rules. Reciprocity provisions
also exist for the $2.50 Strike Program, the $1 Strike Program and
the $0.50 Strike Program. See Rules 5.5.01(a), 5.5.05(a) and
5.5.01(b).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    While the recent proposal to establish the $5 Strike Program did
not specifically address a reciprocity provision, the Exchange's
existing strike setting programs demonstrate the intent

of a reciprocity provision and the need for it to implement the $5
Strike Program. Clarifying that reciprocity is permitted is pro-
competitive and will eliminate confusion. For example, CBOE will be
able to list all series in option classes chosen by other exchanges and
investors will be able to access these series across all exchanges that
employ a $5 Strike Program. CBOE believes that this is consistent with
the goals of the National Market System and the concepts of price
improvement and best execution. Also, because all of the existing
strike price programs that have been adopted by the various exchanges
include reciprocity provisions, the Exchange believes that the current
proposal will eliminate confusion and prevent listing errors amongst
the exchanges.
    It is expected that other options exchanges that have also proposed
to establish a $5 Strike Program will submit similar clarifying
proposals.
2. Statutory Basis
    The Exchange believes the proposed rule change is consistent with
the Act \7\ and the rules and regulations thereunder and, in
particular, the requirements of Section 6(b) of the Act.\8\
Specifically, the Exchange believes the proposed rule change is
consistent with the Section 6(b)(5) \9\ requirements that the rules of
an exchange be designed to promote just and equitable principles of
trade, to prevent fraudulent and manipulative acts, to remove
impediments to and to perfect the mechanism for a free and open market
and a national market system, and, in general, to protect investors and
the public interest. The Exchange believes codifying a reciprocity
provision to the $5 Strike Price Program eliminate investor confusion
and promote competition. While the reciprocity provision will generate
additional quote traffic, the Exchange does not believe that this
increased traffic will become unmanageable since the proposal is
limited to a fixed number of classes per exchange. Further, the
Exchange does not believe that the proposal will result in a material
proliferation of additional series because it is limited to a fixed
number of classes per exchange and the Exchange does not believe that
the additional price points will result in fractured liquidity.

    \9\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

B. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Burden on Competition

    CBOE does not believe that the proposed rule change will impose any
burden on competition not necessary or appropriate in furtherance of
the purposes of the Act.

C. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Comments on the Proposed
Rule Change Received From Members, Participants, or Others

    No written comments were solicited or received with respect to the
proposed rule change.

III. Date of Effectiveness of the Proposed Rule Change and Timing for
Commission Action

    Because the foregoing proposed rule change does not significantly
affect the protection of investors or the public interest, does not
impose any significant burden on competition, and, by its terms, does
not become operative for 30 days from the date on which it was filed,
or such shorter time as the Commission may designate, it has become
effective pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A) of the Act \10\ and Rule 19b-
4(f)(6) thereunder.\11\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \10\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A).
    \11\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6). In addition, Rule 19b-4(f)(6)(iii)
requires the Exchange to give the Commission written notice of the
Exchange's intent to file the proposed rule change, along with a
brief description and text of the proposed rule change, at least
five business days prior to the date of filing of the proposed rule
change, or such shorter time as designated by the Commission. The
Exchange has satisfied this requirement.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange has requested that the Commission waive the 30-day
operative delay. The Commission believes that waiver of the operative
delay is consistent with the protection of investors and the public
interest because the proposed reciprocity provision is similar to
reciprocity provisions in place for other option strike price
programs,\12\ which have been previously approved by the
Commission.\13\ Therefore, the Commission designates the proposal
operative upon filing.\14\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \12\ See Rule 5.5, Interpretations and Policies .01(a)(1) ($1
Strike Program), .01(b) ($0.50 Strike Program), and .05(a) ($2.50
Strike Program).
    \13\ See, e.g., Securities Exchange Act Release No. 60694
(September 18, 2009); 74 FR 49048 (September 25, 2009) (SR-Phlx-
2009-65) (approving NASDAQ OMX PHLX's $0.50 Strike Program, with
reciprocity provision).
    \14\ For purposes only of waiving the 30-day operative delay,
the Commission has considered the proposed rule's impact on
efficiency, competition, and capital formation. See 15 U.S.C.
78c(f).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    At any time within 60 days of the filing of the 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.

IV. Solicitation of Comments

arguments concerning the foregoing, including whether the proposed rule
change is consistent with the Act. Comments may be submitted by any of

Airworthiness Directives; Airbus Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Department of
Transportation (DOT).

ACTION: Final rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: We are superseding Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2005-23-08 for
certain Airbus Model A300 B4-605R and B4-622R airplanes; Model A300 F4-
605R airplanes; and Model A300 C4-605R Variant F airplanes. AD 2005-23-
08 required repetitive inspections to detect cracks of certain
attachment holes, installation of new fasteners, follow-on inspections
or repair if necessary, and modification of the angle fittings of
fuselage frame FR47. This new AD adds new repetitive ultrasonic
inspections for cracks of the center wing box lower panel; and repair
if necessary. This new AD also removes certain airplanes from the
applicability. This AD was prompted by reports of cracks found on the
horizontal flange of the Frame 47 internal corner angle fitting while
accomplishing the modification required by AD 2005-23-08. We are
issuing this AD to detect and correct fatigue cracking of the forward
fitting of fuselage frame FR47, which could result in reduced
structural integrity of the frame.

DATES: This AD becomes December 11, 2014.
    The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by
reference of certain publications listed in this AD as of December 11,
2014.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Discussion

    We issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR
part 39 to supersede AD 2005-23-08, Amendment 39-14366 (70 FR 69056,
November 14, 2005). AD 2005-23-08 applied to certain Model A300 B4-601,
B4-603, B4-620, and B4-622 airplanes; Model A300 B4-605R and B4-622R
airplanes; Model A300 F4-605R airplanes; and Model A300 C4-605R Variant
F airplanes. The NPRM published in the Federal Register on December 26,
2013 (78 FR 78285).
    The European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), which is the Technical
Agent for the Member States of the European Community, has issued EASA
Airworthiness Directive 2012-0092, dated May 25, 2012; Correction dated
June 4, 2012 (referred to after this as the Mandatory Continuing
Airworthiness Information, or ``the MCAI''); to correct an unsafe
condition for the specified products. The MCAI states:

    Prompted by cracks found on the Frame 47 angle fitting, DGAC
France published AD 2000-533-328 [http://ad.easa.europa.eu/ad/F-2000-533-328R1] to require [a] repetitive inspection programme for
fuselage frame 47. If not detected and corrected, these cracks could
affect the structural integrity of the Centre Wing Box (CWB) of the
aeroplane.
    Subsequent to the publication of a new repetitive inspection
programme for fuselage frame 47 at certain fasteners of the CWB
angle fitting, DGAC France issued AD F-2004-159 [http://ad.easa.europa.eu/ad/F-2004-159] [which corresponds to AD 2005-23-
08, Amendment 39-14366 (70 FR 69056, November 14, 2005)],
superseding AD 2000-533-328.
    After DGAC France AD F-2004-159 was issued, cracks were
reportedly found on the horizontal flange of the Frame 47 internal
corner angle fitting during accomplishment of routine maintenance
structural inspection and modification in accordance with Airbus SB
A300-57-6050.
    Prompted by these findings, Airbus reviewed and amended the
inspection programme for the internal lower angle fitting flange
(horizontal face). The inspection programme for the lower angle
fitting web (vertical face) related to SB A300-57-6049 and internal
lower angle fitting modification programme related to SB A300-57-
6050 remain unchanged.
    For the reasons explained above, this new [EASA] AD retains the
requirements of DGAC France AD F-2004-159, which is superseded, and
requires additional repetitive [ultrasonic] inspections [for cracks]
of the CWB lower panel through the ultrasonic method and, depending
on findings, [e.g., repair] re-installation of removed fasteners in
transition fit instead of interference.
    This [EASA] AD has been republished to correct a typographical
error * * *.

    The repetitive interval for the new ultrasonic inspection is either
1,260 flight cycles or 2,720 flight hours, whichever occurs first; or
1,360 flight cycles or 2,200 flight hours, whichever occurs first;
depending on average flight time of the airplane. You may examine the
MCAI in the AD docket on the Internet at http://www.regulations.gov/#!documentDetail;D=FAA-2013-1064-0002.

Comments

    We gave the public the opportunity to participate in developing
this AD. The following presents the comments received on the NPRM (78
FR 78285, December 26, 2013) and the FAA's response to each comment.

Requests To Remove Requirement To Refer to This AD in Repair Approvals

    Airlines for America, Inc. (A4A), on behalf of seven affected
member airlines, requested that we revise paragraphs (m)(1), (m)(2),
and (o)(2) of the NPRM (78 FR 78285, December 26, 2013) to remove the
requirement to include the AD reference in repair approvals. The
commenters have made this request because the proposed requirement is
overly broad and would add significant cost and complexity to their
operations. The commenters were concerned that this proposed
requirement would set a precedent for how repairs are approved, and
could negatively affect all U.S. operators of foreign-manufactured
airplanes.
    We concur with the commenters' request to remove from this AD the
requirement that repair approvals must specifically refer to this AD.
    Since late 2006, we have included a standard paragraph titled
``Airworthy Product'' in all MCAI ADs in which the FAA develops an AD
based on a foreign authority's AD. The MCAI or referenced service
information in an FAA AD often directs the owner/operator to contact
the manufacturer for corrective actions, such as a repair. Briefly, the
Airworthy Product paragraph allowed owners/operators to use corrective
actions provided by the manufacturer if those actions were FAA-
approved. In addition, the paragraph stated that any actions approved
by the State of Design Authority (or its delegated agent) are
considered to be FAA-approved.
    In the NPRM (78 FR 78285, December 26, 2013), we proposed to
prevent the

use of repairs that were not specifically developed to correct the
unsafe condition, by requiring that the repair approval provided by the
State of Design Authority or its delegated agent specifically refer to
this FAA AD. This change was intended to clarify the method of
compliance and to provide operators with better visibility of repairs
that are specifically developed and approved to correct the unsafe
condition. In addition, we proposed to change the phrase ``its
delegated agent'' to include ``the Design Approval Holder (DAH) with a
State of Design Authority's design organization approval (DOA)'' to
refer to a DAH authorized to approve required repairs for the proposed
AD.
    One commenter to the NPRM (78 FR 78285, December 26, 2013), United
Parcel Service (UPS), stated the following: ``The proposed wording,
being specific to repairs, eliminates the interpretation that Airbus
messages are acceptable for approving minor deviations (corrective
actions) needed during accomplishment of an AD mandated Airbus service
bulletin.''
    This comment has made the FAA aware that some operators have
misunderstood or misinterpreted the Airworthy Product paragraph to
allow the owner/operator to use messages provided by the manufacturer
as approval of deviations during the accomplishment of an AD-mandated
action. The Airworthy Product paragraph does not approve messages or
other information provided by the manufacturer for deviations to the
requirements of the AD-mandated actions. The Airworthy Product
paragraph only addresses the requirement to contact the manufacturer
for corrective actions for the identified unsafe condition and does not
cover deviations from other AD requirements. However, deviations to AD-
required actions are addressed in 14 CFR 39.17, and anyone may request
the approval for an alternative method of compliance to the AD-required
actions using the procedures found in 14 CFR 39.19.
    To address this misunderstanding and misinterpretation of the
Airworthy Product paragraph, we have changed that paragraph and
retitled it ``Contacting the Manufacturer.'' This paragraph now
clarifies that for any requirement in this AD to obtain corrective
actions from a manufacturer, the actions must be accomplished using a
method approved by the FAA, EASA, or Airbus's EASA DOA.
    The Contacting the Manufacturer paragraph also clarifies that, if
approved by the DOA, the approval must include the DOA-authorized
signature. The DOA signature indicates that the data and information
contained in the document are EASA-approved, which is also FAA-
approved. Messages and other information provided by the manufacturer
that do not contain the DOA-authorized signature approval are not EASA-
approved, unless EASA directly approves the manufacturer's message or
other information.
    This clarification does not remove flexibility afforded previously
by the Airworthy Product paragraph. Consistent with long-standing FAA
policy, such flexibility was never intended for required actions. This
is also consistent with the recommendation of the AD Implementation
Aviation Rulemaking Committee to increase flexibility in complying with
ADs by identifying those actions in manufacturers' service instructions
that are ``Required for Compliance'' with ADs. We continue to work with
manufacturers to implement this recommendation. But once we determine
that an action is required, any deviation from the requirement must be
approved as an alternative method of compliance.
    Other commenters pointed out that in many cases the foreign
manufacturer's service bulletin and the foreign authority's MCAI may
have been issued some time before the FAA AD. Therefore, the DOA may
have provided U.S. operators with an approved repair, developed with
full awareness of the unsafe condition, before the FAA AD is issued.
Under these circumstances, to comply with the FAA AD, the operator
would be required to go back to the manufacturer's DOA and obtain a new
approval document, adding time, and expense to the compliance process
with no safety benefit.
    Based on these comments, we removed from this AD the requirement
that the DAH-provided repair specifically refer to this AD. Before
adopting such a requirement in the future, the FAA will coordinate with
affected DAHs and verify they are prepared to implement means to ensure
that their repair approvals consider the unsafe condition addressed in
the AD. Any such requirements will be adopted through the normal AD
rulemaking process, including notice-and-comment procedures, when
appropriate.
    We have also decided not to include a generic reference to either
the ``delegated agent'' or the ``DAH with State of Design Authority
design organization approval'' for new requirements, but instead we
will provide the specific delegation approval granted by the State of
Design Authority for the DAH.

Request To Revise Costs of Compliance

    One commenter, FedEx, requested assurance that two inspections (the
rotating probe of the attachment holes of the horizontal flange of the
internal corner angle fitting, and the ultrasonic inspection of the aft
bottom panel of the center wing box) specified in the NPRM (78 FR
78285, December 26, 2013) are to be conducted as two separate
inspections at two separate thresholds and intervals. FedEx observed
that both inspections are contained in the same service information,
and that these two inspections appear to be combined in the Costs of
Compliance paragraph of the NPRM. FedEx requested that the estimated
costs be presented separately for the two inspection actions, and added
that the Costs of Compliance paragraph should specify 4 work-hours for
the new ultrasonic inspection.
    We agree to clarify the Costs of Compliance paragraph. There are
two inspection actions (rotating probe and ultrasonic inspections)
identified in Airbus Service Bulletin A300-57-6086, Revision 05, dated
January 30, 2012, and these are listed separately in the Costs of
Compliance paragraph. The second row of the table in the Costs of
Compliance paragraph should reflect the costs for the rotating probe
inspections identified in Airbus Service Bulletin A300-57-6086,
Revision 05, dated January 30, 2012; we have revised the second row of
the table in the Costs of Compliance paragraph accordingly. We have
also revised the fourth row of the table in the Costs of Compliance
paragraph to refer to Airbus Service Bulletin A300-57-6086, Revision
05, dated January 30, 2012, to reflect costs for the new ultrasonic
inspection.
    In addition, we agree with FedEx that the ultrasonic inspection
takes 4 work-hours, as specified in Airbus Service Bulletin A300-57-
6086, Revision 05, dated January 30, 2012. In addition, Airbus Service
Bulletin A300-57-6086, Revision 05, dated January 30, 2012, specifies
12 work-hours for access and close procedures. Therefore, we have
revised the work-hours for the ultrasonic inspection specified in the
fourth row of the table in the Costs of Compliance paragraph from 35 to
16 work-hours.

Conclusion

    We reviewed the available data, including the comments received,
and determined that air safety and the public interest require adopting
this AD with the changes described previously and minor editorial
changes. We have determined that these changes:

     Are consistent with the intent that was proposed in the
NPRM (78 FR 78285, December 26, 2013) for correcting the unsafe
condition; and
     Do not add any additional burden upon the public than was
already proposed in the NPRM (78 FR 78285, December 26, 2013).
    We also determined that these changes will not increase the
economic burden on any operator or increase the scope of this AD.

Costs of Compliance

    We estimate that this AD affects 65 airplanes of U.S. registry.
    We estimate the following costs to comply with this AD:

Paperwork Reduction Act

    A federal agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not
required to respond to, nor shall a person be subject to penalty for
failure to comply with a collection of information subject to the
requirements of the Paperwork Reduction Act unless that collection of
information displays a current valid OMB control number. The control
number for the collection of information required by this AD is 2120-
0056. The paperwork cost associated with this AD has been detailed in
the Costs of Compliance section of this document and includes time for
reviewing instructions, as well as completing and reviewing the
collection of information. Therefore, all reporting associated with
this AD is mandatory. Comments concerning the accuracy of this burden
and suggestions for reducing the burden should be directed to the FAA
at 800 Independence Ave. SW., Washington, DC 20591, ATTN: Information
Collection Clearance Officer, AES-200.

Authority for This Rulemaking

    Title 49 of the United States Code specifies the FAA's authority to
issue rules on aviation safety. Subtitle I, section 106, describes the
authority of the FAA Administrator. ``Subtitle VII: Aviation
Programs,'' describes in more detail the scope of the Agency's
authority.
    We are issuing this rulemaking under the authority described in
``Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart III, Section 44701: General
requirements.'' Under that section, Congress charges the FAA with
promoting safe flight of civil aircraft in air commerce by prescribing
regulations for practices, methods, and procedures the Administrator
finds necessary for safety in air commerce. This regulation is within
the scope of that authority because it addresses an unsafe condition
that is likely to exist or develop on products identified in this
rulemaking action.

Regulatory Findings

    We determined that this AD will not have federalism implications
under Executive Order 13132. This AD will not have a substantial direct
effect on the States, on the relationship between the national
government and the States, or on the distribution of power and
responsibilities among the various levels of government.
    For the reasons discussed above, I certify that this AD:
    1. Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under Executive Order
12866;
    2. Is not a ``significant rule'' under the DOT Regulatory Policies
and Procedures (44 FR 11034, February 26, 1979);
    3. Will not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska; and
    4. Will not have a significant economic impact, positive or
negative, on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria
of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

Examining the AD Docket

    You may examine the AD docket on the Internet at http://www.regulations.gov/#!docketDetail;D=FAA-2013-1064; or in person at the
Docket Management Facility between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m., Monday through

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-62422; File No. SR-NYSEArca-2010-63]

 Self-Regulatory Organizations; NYSE Arca, Inc.; Notice of Filing
and Immediate Effectiveness of a Proposed Rule Change Amending Its Fee
Schedule

June 30, 2010.
    Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
(the ``Act'') \1\ and Rule 19b-4 thereunder,\2\ notice is hereby given
that on June 25, 2010, 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 self-regulatory
organization. The Commission is publishing this notice to solicit
comments on the proposed rule change from interested persons.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(1).
    \2\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

I. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Terms of Substance
of the Proposed Rule Change

    The Exchange proposes to its [sic] Schedule of Fees and Charges for
Exchange Services (the ``Schedule'') effective July 1, 2010. The
amended section of the Schedule is included as Exhibit 5 hereto.\3\ A
copy of this filing is available on the Exchange's Web site at http://
www.nyse.com, at the Exchange's principal office, at the Commission's
Public Reference Room,

and on the Commission's Web site at http://www.sec.gov.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ The Commission notes that the Exhibit 5 is attached to the
Form 19b-4.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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.

A. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Purpose of, and
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change

1. Purpose
    Currently, the Exchange aggregates all of an OTP Holder's volume at
the trading permit level for purposes of the Firm Proprietary Manual
fee caps. Recently, certain OTP Holders have requested that the Firm
Proprietary Manual fee caps be calculated at the initiating firm level.
By this filing, the Exchange proposes to allow its OTP Holders to elect
to have their Firm Proprietary Manual billing calculated at the
initiating firm level for purposes of the fee cap. The Exchange's
default billing will continue to aggregate volume at the trading permit
level, and OTP Holders must elect this new billing option. If elected,
this option will allow Joint Back Office operations to pass-through the
pricing associated with the caps at NYSE Arca more effectively. The
Exchange believes this proposed elective billing option is reasonable
and equitable and applies uniformly to all OTP Holders.
2. Statutory Basis
    The Exchange believes that the proposed rule change is consistent
with the provisions of Section 6 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
(the ``Act''),\4\ in general, and Section 6(b)(4) of the Act,\5\ in
particular, in that it is designed to provide for the equitable
allocation of reasonable dues, fees, and other charges among its
members and other persons using its facilities. This proposed elective
billing option is reasonable and equitable and applies uniformly to all
OTP Holders. If elected, this option will allow Joint Back Office
operations to pass-through the pricing associated with the caps at NYSE
Arca more effectively.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b).
    \5\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(4).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

B. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Burden on Competition

    The Exchange does not believe that the proposed rule change will
impose any burden on competition that is not necessary or appropriate
in furtherance of the purposes of the Act.

C. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Comments on the Proposed
Rule Change Received From Members, Participants or Others

    No written comments were solicited or received with respect to the
proposed rule change.

III. Date of Effectiveness of the Proposed Rule Change and Timing for
Commission Action

    The foregoing rule change is effective upon filing pursuant to
Section 19(b)(3)(A) \6\ of the Act and subparagraph (f)(2) of Rule 19b-
4 \7\ thereunder, because it establishes a due, fee, or other charge
imposed by NYSE Arca on its members.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A).
    \7\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(2).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    At any time within 60 days of the filing of the proposed rule
change, the Commission may summarily abrogate 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.

IV. Solicitation of Comments
