Federal Aviation Administration

14 CFR Part 97

[Docket No. 30598; Amdt. No. 3261]

Standard Instrument Approach Procedures, and Takeoff Minimums and
Obstacle Departure Procedures; Miscellaneous Amendments

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: This rule establishes, amends, suspends, or revokes Standard
Instrument Approach Procedures (SIAPs) and associated Takeoff Minimums
and Obstacle Departure Procedures for operations at certain airports.
These regulatory actions are needed because of the adoption of new or
revised criteria, or because of changes occurring in the National
Airspace System, such as the commissioning of new navigational
facilities, adding new obstacles, or changing air traffic requirements.
These changes are designed to provide safe and efficient use of the
navigable airspace and to promote safe flight operations under
instrument flight rules at the affected airports.

DATES: This rule is effective March 19, 2008. The compliance date for
each SIAP, associated Takeoff Minimums, and ODP is specified in the
amendatory provisions.
    The incorporation by reference of certain publications listed in
the regulations is approved by the Directory

of the Federal Register as of March 19, 2008.

ADDRESSES: Availability of matter incorporated by reference in the
amendment is as follows:
    For Examination--
    1. FAA Rules Docket, FAA Headquarters Building, 800 Independence
Avenue, SW., Washington, DC 20591;
    2. The FAA Regional Office of the region in which the affected
airport is located;
    3. The National Flight Procedures Office, 6500 South MacArthur
Blvd., Oklahoma City, OK 73169 or,

federal_regulations/ibr_locations.html.
    Availability_All SIAPs are available online free of charge. Visit
nfdc.faa.gov to register. Additionally, individual SIAP and Takeoff
Minimums and ODP copies may be obtained from:
    1. FAA Public Inquiry Center (APA-200), FAA Headquarters Building,
800 Independence Avenue, SW., Washington, DC 20591; or
    2. The FAA Regional Office of the region in which the affected
airport is located.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Harry J. Hodges, Flight Procedure
Standards Branch (AFS-420) Flight Technologies and Programs Division,
Flight Standards Service, Federal Aviation Administration, Mike
Monroney Aeronautical Center, 6500 South MacArthur Blvd., Oklahoma
City, OK 73169 (Mail Address: P.O. Box 25082 Oklahoma City, OK 73125),
telephone:<PHONE_NUMBER>.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This rule amends Title 14, Code of Federal
Regulations, Part 97 (14 CFR part 97) by amending the referenced SIAPs.
The complete regulatory description of each SIAP is listed on the
appropriate FAA Form 8260, as modified by the National Flight Data
Center (FDC)/Permanent Notice to Airmen (P-NOTAM), and is incorporated
by reference in the amendment under 5 U.S.C. 552(a), 1 CFR part 51, and
Sec.  97.20 of Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations.
    The large number of SIAPs, their complex nature, and the need for a
special format make their verbatim publication in the Federal Register
expensive and impractical. Further, airmen do not use the regulatory
text of the SIAPs, but refer to their graphic depiction on charts
printed by publishers of aeronautical materials. Thus, the advantages
of incorporation by reference are realized and publication of the
complete description of each SIAP contained in FAA form documents is
unnecessary. This amendment provides the affected CFR sections and
specifies the types of SIAP and the corresponding effective dates. This
amendment also identifies the airport and its location, the procedure
and the amendment number.

The Rule

    This amendment to 14 CFR part 97 is effective upon publication of
each separate SIAP as amended in the transmittal. For safety and
timeliness of change considerations, this amendment incorporates only
specific changes contained for each SIAP as modified by FDC/P-NOTAMs.
    The SIAPs, as modified by FDC P-NOTAM, and contained in this
amendment are based on the criteria contained in the U.S. Standard for
Terminal Instrument Procedures (TERPS). In developing these changes to
SIAPs, the TERPS criteria were applied only to specific conditions
existing at the affected airports. All SIAP amendments in this rule
have been previously issued by the FAA in a FDC NOTAM as an emergency
action of immediate flight safety relating directly to published
aeronautical charts. The circumstances which created the need for all
these SIAP amendments requires making them effective in less than 30
days.
    Because of the close and immediate relationship between these SIAPs
and safety in air commerce, I find that notice and public procedure
before adopting these SIAPs are impracticable and contrary to the
public interest and, where applicable, that good cause exists for
making these SIAPs effective in less than 30 days.

Conclusion

    The FAA has determined that this regulation only involves an
established body of technical regulations for which frequent and
routine amendments are necessary to keep them operationally current.
It, therefore--(1) is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under DOT
Regulatory Order 12866; (2) is not a ``significant rule'' under DOT
regulatory Policies and Procedures (44 FR 11034; February 26, 1979);
and (3) does not warrant preparation of a regulatory evaluation as the
anticipated impact is so minimal. For the same reason, the FAA
certifies that this amendment will not have a significant economic
impact on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria of
the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

Flight Path Management Advisory Circular

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

ACTION: Notice of availability; request for comments.

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

SUMMARY: This notice announces the availability of a draft advisory
circular on flight path management. The FAA invites public comment on
AC 120-FPM.

DATES: The FAA must receive comments on these proposed documents by
March 7, 2022.

ADDRESSES: The draft AC 120-FPM can be viewed and comments submitted
through the FAA Draft Documents website.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Joshua Jackson, Flight Standards, Air
Transportation Division, Training and Simulation Group (AFS-280),
[email protected],<PHONE_NUMBER>. Federal Aviation
Administration, 800 Independence Avenue SW, Washington, DC 20591.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Loss of control inflight remains one of the
leading causes of accidents. One of the factors that contributes to
these accidents is a flightcrew's failure to manage the flight path of
the aircraft. The vulnerabilities of flightcrew automation management
have been studied for more than two decades with major improvements in
design, training, and operational use of onboard systems for flight
path management. Despite these improvements, there are still
vulnerabilities that should be addressed.

Background

    The Air Carrier Training Aviation Rulemaking Committee Steering
Committee established the Flight Path Management Work Group in 2018 and
has since submitted numerous recommendations to the FAA. The FAA

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

    Cboe Exchange, Inc. (the ``Exchange'' or ``Cboe Options'') proposes
to update its Fees Schedule in connection with the Exchange's plans to
list and trade options on the Mini-RUT Index (``MRUT'' or ``Mini-
RUT''). The text of the proposed rule change is provided in Exhibit 5.
    The text of the proposed rule change is also available on the
Exchange's website (http://www.cboe.com/AboutCBOE/CBOELegalRegulatoryHome.aspx), 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 Exchange 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 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

1. Purpose
    The Exchange proposes to amend its Fees Schedule in connection with
its plans to list and trade MRUT options, effective March 1, 2021.
Background
    MRUT options are options on the Mini-RUT Index, the value of which
is 1/10th the value of the Russell 2000 (``RUT'') Index. The Russell
2000 Index measures the performance of small-cap segment of the U.S.
equity universe. It is a subset of the Russell 3000 Index and includes
approximately 2,000 U.S.-based securities based on a combination of
their market cap and current index membership. The Russell 2000 Index
is constructed to provide a comprehensive and unbiased small-cap
barometer and is completely reconstituted annually to ensure larger
stocks do not distort the performance and characteristics of the true
small-cap opportunity set. The Russell 2000 Index is a commonly used
benchmark for mutual funds that identify themselves as ``small-cap,''
and much like the S&P 500 Index (``SPX''), is used to benchmark large
capitalization stocks. The Exchange understands that investors often
use Russell 2000 Index-related products to diversify their portfolios
and benefit from market trends. RUT options currently offer these
benefits to investors but may be expensive given their larger notional
value and are therefore primarily used by institutional market
participants. By contrast, MRUT options are reduced-value options (1/
10th) compared to RUT options that will offer individual investors
lower cost options to obtain the potential benefits of options on the
Russell 2000 Index.
    The Exchange believes that investors will benefit from the
availability of Mini-RUT option contracts by making options overlying
the higher-valued RUT Index more readily available as an investing tool
and at more affordable prices for investors. The Exchange also believes
that the investor-base for MRUT options are likely to be the same
investor-base for Mini-SPX options (``XSP''), which are also
proprietary, reduced-value options on a broad-based index (SPX), as
they are both designed to provide low-cost means to hedge investors'
portfolios in connection with higher-value broad-based indexes (i.e.,
the RUT and SPX Index) with a smaller outlay of capital. As such, the
Exchange will allow the same type of expirations, settlement and
exercise style, minimum increments, strike price intervals and Market-
Maker appointment weights for MRUT options as it currently does for XSP
options and anticipates that MRUT options will have the same investor
base as XSP options.\3\ The Exchange now proposes to amend its Fees
Schedule to accommodate the planned listing and trading of MRUT
options. The Exchange notes that because both MRUT and XSP are mini-
index options intended for the same investor-base, the majority of the
proposed changes amend the Fees Schedule in connection with trading in
MRUT options in a manner that is generally consistent with the way in
which existing transactions fees and programs currently apply to
trading in XSP options.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ See Securities Exchange Act Release Nos. 90748 (December 21,
2020), 85 FR 85759 (December 29, 2021) (SR-CBOE-2020-118); and 91067
(February 5, 2021), 86 FR 9108 (February 11, 2021) (SR-CBOE-2020-
118) [sic].
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Standard Transaction Rates and Surcharges
    First, the Exchange proposes to adopt certain standard transaction
fees in connection with MRUT options in a manner that closely aligns
the fees assessed for MRUT options with that of the fees assessed for
RUT options. As described above, MRUT options and RUT options track the
same underlying index, yet MRUT options are 1/10th the size of standard
RUT options contracts. As such, the proposed rule change adopts certain
fees for MRUT options in the Rate Table for All Products Excluding
Underlying Symbol A \4\ that are approximately 1/10th of the fees
currently assessed for RUT options, as follows:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ Underlying Symbol List A includes OEX, XEO, RUT, RLG, RLV,
RUI, UKXM, SPX (includes SPXW), SPESG and VIX. See Cboe Options Fees
Schedule, Footnote 34.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

     Adopts fee code CQ, appended to all Customer (capacity
``C'') orders in MRUT options and assesses a fee of $0.02 per contract.
This proposed fee is approximately 1/10th of the fees assessed for
Customer orders in RUT options ($0.18).
     Adopts fee code FM, appended to all Clearing Trading
Permit Holder (``TPHs'') (capacity ``F'') and for Non-TPH Affiliate of
a Clearing TPH (capacity ``L'') (collectively, ``Firms'') orders in
MRUT options and assesses a fee of $0.02 per contract. The proposed fee
is approximately 1/10th of the fees assessed for Firm orders in RUT
options ($0.26);
     Adopts fee code MM, which is appended to all Market-Maker
(capacity ``M'') orders in MRUT options and assesses a fee of $0.03 per
contract. The proposed fee is approximately 1/10th of the fees assessed
for Market-Maker orders in RUT options ($0.30); and
     Adopts fee code BM, appended to all Broker-Dealer
(capacity ``B''), Joint Back-Office (capacity ``J''), Non-TPH Market-
Maker (capacity ``N''), and Professional (capacity ``U'')
(collectively, ``Non-Customers'') orders in MRUT options and assesses a
fee of $0.04 per contract. The proposed fee is approximately 1/10th of
the difference between the two rates assessed for Non-Customer orders
in RUT options ($0.25 for manual and AIM transactions and $0.65 for
non-AIM electronic transactions).
    The Exchange also proposes to waive the proposed MRUT transaction
fees for Firms and Market-Makers through August 31, 2021. Specifically,
proposed footnote 32 (appended to MRUT options for Market-Maker and
Firm transaction fees in the Rate Table--All Products Excluding
Underlying Symbol List A) provides that transaction fees for orders
executed in MRUT options with a capacity code of ``F'', ``L'', or ``M''
will be waived through August 31, 2021. The proposed waiver is intended
to encourage liquidity in a newly listed and traded product on the
Exchange.
    In addition to the above transaction fees, the proposed rule change
also adopts certain surcharges to MRUT transactions within the Rate
Table--All Products Excluding Underlying Symbol List A. The proposed
rule change applies an Index License Surcharge Fee of $0.02 to all
Firm, Market-Maker and Non-Customer transactions in MRUT options.
Currently, the Index License Surcharge Fee assesses a $0.10 charge for
transactions in DJX, MXEA and MXEF options. The proposed lower Index
License Surcharge rate for MRUT options is intended to promote and
encourage trading of MRUT options once listed. The Exchange notes that
this is similar to lower (or waived) Index License fees for other
options classes in order to similarly continue to promote their trading
and growth.\5\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ See e.g. Securities Exchange Act Release No 90093 (October
5, 2020), 85 FR 64189 (October 9, 2020) (SR-CBOE-2020-088), which
provides that ``[t]he Exchange does not at this time propose to
assess the Index License fee on transactions in SPESG in order to
promote and encourage trading of SPESG once listed.''; and
Securities Exchange Act Release No. 87953 (January 13, 2020), 85 FR
3091 (January 17, 2020) (SR-CBOE-2020-001), which waived permanently
the Index License fees for transactions in Sector Index options to
continue to encourage their growth and trading.

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

    The proposed rule change adds MRUT options to the list of options,
which currently includes XSP, for which the FLEX Surcharge Fee of $0.10
(capped at $250 per trade) applies to electronic FLEX orders executed
by all capacity codes.\6\ The proposed rule change adopts an Exotic
Surcharge of $0.03 for Customer transactions in MRUT, which is
consistent with the Exotic Surcharge currently assessed for Customer
transactions in XSP. Additionally, the Exchange proposes to exclude
MRUT orders from the AIM Contra Fee by amending footnote 18 (appended
to the AIM Contra Fee) to provide that the AIM Contra Execution Fee
applies to all orders (excluding facilitation orders, per footnote 11)
in all products, except MRUT, XSP,\7\ Sector Indexes and Underlying
Symbol List A, executed in the Automated Improvement Mechanism
(``AIM''), Solicitation Auction Mechanism (``SAM''), FLEX AIM and FLEX
SAM auctions, that were initially entered as the contra party to an
Agency/Primary Order. Applicable standard transaction fees will apply
to AIM, SAM, FLEX AIM and FLEX SAM executions in MRUT, XSP, Sector
Indexes and Underlying Symbol List A. The Exchange also proposes to
exclude Firm, Market-Maker and Non-Customer complex orders in MRUT from
the Complex Surcharge by amending footnote 35 (appended to the Complex
Surcharge) to provide that the Complex Surcharge applies per contract
per side surcharge for noncustomer complex order executions that remove
liquidity from the COB and auction responses in the Complex Order
Auction (``COA'') and AIM in all classes except MRUT, XSP, Sector
Indexes and Underlying Symbol List A. The proposed FLEX and Exotic
surcharges and exclusion from the AIM Contra Fee (and, instead, the
application of the proposed standard transaction fees) and Complex
Surcharge in connection with transactions in MRUT will provide
consistency with the fees and exclusions currently applicable to
transactions in XSP.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ The FLEX Surcharge Fee will only be charged up to the first
2,500 contracts per trade. See Cboe Options Fees Schedule, Footnote
17.
    \7\ The proposed rule change also makes clear in the first
sentence of footnote 18 that the AIM Contra Execution Fee is not
applicable to transaction in XSP. This is currently the case and is
clear in the subsequent language within footnote 18 as well as the
manner in which the fees are presented in Rate Table--All Products
Excluding Underlying Symbol List A.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Fees Programs
    The proposed rule change excludes MRUT volume from the Liquidity
Provider Sliding Scale, which offers credits on Market-Maker orders
where a Market-Maker achieves certain volume thresholds based on total
national Market-Maker volume in all underlying symbols, excluding
Underlying Symbol List A and XSP, during the calendar month.
Specifically, the proposed rule change updates the Liquidity Provider
Sliding Scale table to provide that volume thresholds are based on
total national Market-Maker volume in all underlying symbols excluding
Underlying Symbol List A, MRUT and XSP during the calendar month, and
that it applies in all underlying symbols excluding Underlying Symbol
List A, MRUT and XSP. The proposed rule change also updates footnote 10
(appended to the Liquidity Provider Sliding Scale) to provide that the
Liquidity Provider Sliding Scale applies to Liquidity Provider (Cboe
Options Market-Maker, DPM and LMM) transaction fees in all products
except (1) Underlying Symbol List A (34), MRUT and XSP,\8\ and (2)
volume executed in open outcry.\9\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \8\ The proposed rule change corrects an inadvertent grammatical
error in footnote 10 in connection with the exclusion of XSP from
the Liquidity Provider Sliding Scale.
    \9\ The proposed rule change also updates footnote 6, which is
appended to the Liquidity Provider Sliding Scale Program, the VIP,
and the ORS/CORS Programs to reflect the exclusion of MRUT options
from these programs in the same manner as the options classes
currently excluded from these programs. Specifically, amended
footnote 6 provides that in the event of a Cboe Options System
outage or other interruption of electronic trading on Cboe Options
that lasts longer than 60 minutes, the Exchange will adjust the
national volume in all underlying symbols excluding Underlying
Symbol List A, Sector Indexes, MRUT, MXEA, MXEF, DJX and XSP for the
entire trading day.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The proposed rule change updates the Volume Incentive Program
(``VIP'') table to exclude MRUT volume from the VIP, which currently
offers a per contract credit for certain percentage threshold levels of
monthly Customer and Non-Customer volume in all underlying symbols,
excluding Underlying Symbol List A, Sector Indexes, DJX, MXEA, MXEF and
XSP. The proposed rule change also amends footnote 36 (appended to the
VIP table) to reflect the proposed exclusion of MRUT from the VIP by
providing (in relevant part) that: The Exchange shall credit each
Trading Permit Holder the per contract amount resulting from each
public customer (``C'' capacity code) order transmitted by that Trading
Permit Holder which is executed electronically on the Exchange in all
underlying symbols excluding Underlying Symbol List A, Sector Indexes,
DJX, MRUT, MXEA, MXEF, XSP, QCC trades, public customer to public
customer electronic complex order executions, and executions related to
contracts that are routed to one or more exchanges in connection with
the Options Order Protection and Locked/Crossed Market Plan referenced
in Rule 5.67, provided the Trading Permit Holder meets certain
percentage thresholds in a month as described in the Volume Incentive
Program (VIP) table; the percentage thresholds are calculated based on
the percentage of national customer volume in all underlying symbols
excluding Underlying Symbol List A, Sector Indexes, MRUT, MXEA, MXEF,
DJX and XSP entered and executed over the course of the month; and in
the event of a Cboe Options System outage or other interruption of
electronic trading on Cboe Options, the Exchange will adjust the
national customer volume in all underlying symbols excluding Underlying
Symbol List A, Sector Indexes, MRUT, MXEA, MXEF, DJX and XSP for the
entire trading day.\10\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \10\ See supra note 8.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The proposed rule change excludes MRUT from the list of products
eligible to receive Break-Up Credits in orders executed in AIM, SAM,
FLEX AIM, and FLEX SAM, by amending the Break-Up Credits table to
exclude MRUT along with the products currently excluded--Underlying
Symbol List A, Sector Indexes, DJX, MXEA, MXEF and XSP.
    The Exchange also proposes to exclude Firm transactions in MRUT
from the Clearing TPH Fee Cap. Specifically, it amends footnote 22
(appended to the Clearing TPH Fee Cap table) to provide that all non-
facilitation business executed in AIM or open outcry, or as a QCC or
FLEX transaction, transaction fees for Clearing TPH Proprietary and/or
their Non-TPH Affiliates in all products except MRUT, XSP, Sector
Indexes and Underlying Symbol List A (which includes SPX), in the
aggregate, are capped at $55,000 per month per Clearing TPH. It
additionally updates footnote 11 (which is also appended to the
Clearing TPH Fee Cap table) to provide that the Clearing TPH Fee Cap in
all products except MRUT, XSP, Underlying Symbol List A and Sector
Indexes (the ``Fee Cap''),\11\ among other programs, apply to (i)
Clearing TPH proprietary orders (``F'' capacity code), and (ii) orders
of Non-TPH Affiliates of a Clearing TPH.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \11\ The Exchange notes that it also corrects an error in
footnote 11 by moving the abbreviated definition for the Clearing
TPH Fee Cap (``Fee Cap'') [sic], to the end of the clause describing
the cap.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange proposes to exclude MRUT from eligibility for the
Order Router Subsidy (``ORS'') and Complex Order Router Subsidy
(``CORS'') Programs, in which Participating TPHs

or Participating Non-Cboe TPHs may receive a payment from the Exchange
for every executed contract routed to the Exchange through their system
in certain classes. Specifically, the proposed rule change updates the
ORS/CORS Program tables to provide that ORS/CORS participants whose
total aggregate non-customer ORS and CORS volume is greater than 0.25%
of the total national volume (excluding volume in options classes
included in Underlying Symbol List A, Sector Indexes, DJX, MRUT, MXEA,
MXEF or XSP) will receive an additional payment for all executed
contracts exceeding that threshold during a calendar month, and updates
footnote 30 (appended to the ORS/CORS Program tables) to accordingly
provide that Cboe Options does not make payments under the program with
respect to executed contracts in options classes included in Underlying
Symbols List A, Sector Indexes, DJX, MRUT, MXEA, MXEF or XSP.\12\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \12\ See supra note 8.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange notes that excluding MRUT transactions from the above-
described programs is consistent with the manner in which XSP
transactions are also excluded each of these programs today.
    Additionally, the Exchange proposes to exclude MRUT from the
Marketing Fee Program by updating the Marketing Fee table to provide
that the marketing fee will be assessed on transactions of Market-
Makers (including DPMs and LMMs), resulting from customer orders at the
per contract rate provided above on all classes of equity options,
options on ETFs, options on ETNs and index options, except that the
marketing fee shall not apply to Sector Indexes, DJX, MXEA, MXEF or
Underlying Symbol List A. The Exchange notes that, in this way, MRUT
will be treated as most of the Exchange's other exclusively listed
products that are currently excluded from the Marketing Fee Program.
The Exchange does believe that it is necessary at the point of newly
listing and trading for MRUT options to be eligible for the Marketing
Fee Program and may determine in the future to submit a fee filing to
add MRUT to the Marketing Fee Program if the Exchange believes it would
potentially generate more customer order flow in MRUT.
MRUT LMM Program
    Finally, the Exchange proposes to adopt a financial program for
LMMs appointed in MRUT options. As proposed, the MRUT LMM Incentive
Program provides that if the appointed LMM in MRUT provides continuous
electronic quotes during Regular Trading Hours that meet or exceed the
proposed heightened quoting standards (below) in at least 99% of the
series 90% of the time in a given month, the LMM will receive a payment
for that month in the amount of $20,000 (or pro-rated amount if an
appointment begins after the first trading day of the month or ends
prior to the last trading day of the month).

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

    Meeting or exceeding the heightened quoting standards in MRUT, as
proposed, to receive the proposed compensation payment is optional for
an MRUT LMM. The Exchange may consider other exceptions to this quoting
standard based on demonstrated legal or regulatory requirements or
other mitigating circumstances. In calculating whether an LMM met the
heightened quoting standard each month, the Exchange will exclude from
the calculation in that month the business day in which the LMM missed
meeting or exceeding the heightened quoting standard in the highest
number of series. In addition to the above rebate, if the appointed LMM
meets or exceeds the above heightened quoting standards in a given
month and provides an average daily volume (``ADV'') in MRUT that meets
or exceeds 25,000 contracts in a given month, the LMM will receive the
Monthly ADV Payment amount that corresponds to the level of ADV in MRUT
provided for that month per the MRUT Volume Incentive Pool program
below:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                                            Monthly ADV
                        MRUT ADV                              payment

50,000-100,000 contracts................................          35,000
Greater than 100,000 contracts..........................          50,000
------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The heightened requirements and MRUT Volume Incentive Pool offered
by the MRUT LMM Incentive Program are designed to incentivize LMMs to
provide significant liquidity in MRUT options during the trading day
upon their listing and trading on the Exchange, which, in turn, would
provide greater trading opportunities, added market transparency and
enhanced price discovery for all market participants in MRUT.
2. Statutory Basis
    The Exchange believes that the proposed rule change is consistent
with the objectives of Section 6 of the Act,\13\ in general, and
furthers the objectives of Section 6(b)(4),\14\ in particular, as it is
designed to provide for the equitable allocation of reasonable dues,
fees and other charges among its Members and issuers and other persons
using its facilities. The Exchange also believes that the proposed rule
change is consistent with the objectives of Section 6(b)(5) \15\
requirements that the rules of an exchange be designed to prevent
fraudulent and manipulative acts and practices, to promote just and
equitable principles of trade, to foster cooperation and coordination
with persons engaged in regulating, clearing, settling, processing
information with respect to, and facilitating transactions in
securities, to remove impediments to and perfect the mechanism of a
free and

open market and a national market system, and, in general, to protect
investors and the public interest, and, particularly, is not designed
to permit unfair discrimination between customers, issuers, brokers, or
dealers.

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

Standard Transaction Rates and Surcharges
    The Exchange believes that the proposed amendments to the Fees
Schedule in connection with standard transaction rates and surcharges
for MRUT transactions are reasonable, equitable and not unfairly
discriminatory. Specifically, the Exchange believes that it is
reasonable to assess fees for Customer, Market-Maker, Firm, and Non-
Customer orders in MRUT that reflect approximately 1/10th of the
transactions fees assessed for corresponding orders in RUT because of
the relation between MRUT options and RUT options, wherein MRUT options
overlie an index 1/10th the value of the index that underlies RUT
options. Additionally, the Exchange believes it is reasonable to waive
the transaction fees for Market-Maker and Firm orders in MRUT options
through August 31, 2021 because the waiver is designed to encourage
order flow from these market participants in a newly listed and traded
options class on the Exchange. The Exchange recognizes that Market-
Makers and Firms each provide important and distinct sources of
liquidity to the Exchange and increased liquidity provides more trading
opportunities, in turn, signaling additional corresponding increase in
order flow from other market participants, and, as a result,
contributing towards a robust, well-balanced market ecosystem. The
Exchange also believes that it is reasonable to assess a lower Index
License fee on transactions in MRUT because MRUT is a new product and
the Exchange wishes to promote and encourage trading of MRUT once
listed. The Exchange notes that, similar to assessing a lower Index
License fee, the Index License fees for certain options in other
classes are waived in order to continue to promote their trading and
growth.\16\ Moreover, the Exchange believes it is reasonable to assess
the same FLEX and Exotic surcharge rates to orders in MRUT as it does
for XSP and to exclude MRUT from the Complex Surcharge and AIM Contra
Fee (and to apply the standard transaction fees for MUT orders in lieu
of the AIM Contra Fee) because these proposed surcharges and surcharge
exclusions will provide consistency between the fees assessed for
orders in MRUT and XSP, which are both mini-index options designed to
offer investors lower cost options to obtain the potential benefits of
options on a broad-based index options and intended for the same
investor-base. Therefore, the Exchange believes it is appropriate to
amend the Fees Schedule in a manner that similarly situates fees
assessed for orders in MRUT options with those assessed for orders in
XSP options.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \16\ See supra note 5.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange believes the proposed standard transaction rates and
surcharges (or exclusions) are equitable and not unfairly
discriminatory because they will apply automatically and uniformly to
all Customer, Firm, Market-Maker and/or Non-Customer, orders, as
applicable, in MRUT options. The Exchange also believes that it is
equitable and not unfairly discriminatory to waive the transaction fees
(through August 31, 2021) for Market-Maker and Firm orders in MRUT
because, as stated above, the Exchange recognizes that these market
participants can provide key and distinct sources of liquidity, which
is particularly important for a newly listed and traded options class
on the Exchange. An increase in general market-making activity
facilitates tighter spreads, which tend to signal additional
corresponding increase in order flow from other market participants,
ultimately incentivizing more overall order flow and improving
liquidity levels and price transparency on the Exchange to the benefit
of all market participants. Similarly, the Exchange also recognizes
that Firms can be an important source of liquidity when they facilitate
their own customers' trading activity, thus, adding transparency and
promoting price discovery to the benefit of all market participants.
The Exchange notes too that Market-Makers and Firms take on a number of
obligations that other market participants do not have. For example,
unlike other market participants, Market-Makers take on quoting
obligations and other market making requirements and Firms must have
higher capital requirements, clear trades for other market
participants, and must be members of OCC.
Fees Programs
    The Exchange believes that the proposed updates to the Fees
Schedule in connection with the application of certain fees programs to
transactions in MRUT options are reasonable, equitable and not unfairly
discriminatory. Particularly, the Exchange believes it is reasonable to
exclude transactions in MRUT options from the Liquidity Provider
Sliding Scale, the VIP, the Break-Up Credits table, the Clearing TPH
Fee cap, and the ORS/CORS programs in the same manner in which
transactions in XSP options are currently excluded from the same
programs today as the Exchange believes it is appropriate to update
these fees programs in a manner that similarly situates transactions in
MRUT with transactions in XSP, as both mini-index options are designed
to offer investors lower cost options to obtain the potential benefits
of options on a broad-based index options and are intended for the same
investor base. Additionally, the Exchange believes that excluding MRUT
from the Marketing Fee Program is reasonable most of the Exchange's
other proprietary products are currently excluded from the Marketing
Fee Program. The Exchange does believe that it is necessary at the
point of newly listing and trading for MRUT transactions to be eligible
for the Marketing Fee Program and may determine in the future to submit
a fee filing to add MRUT to the Marketing Fee Program if the Exchange
believes it would potentially generate more customer order flow in MRUT
options.
    The Exchange believes that excluding MRUT transactions from certain
fees programs is equitable and not unfairly discriminatory because the
programs will equally not apply to, or exclude in the same manner, all
market participants' orders in MRUT options. The Exchange notes that
the proposed rule change does not alter any of the existing program
rates or volume calculations, but instead, merely proposes not to
include transactions in MRUT in those programs and volume calculations
in the same way that transactions in XSP options are not currently
included, or, regarding the Marketing Fee Program, in the same way
transactions in most of the Exchange's other exclusively listed
products are not currently included.
MRUT LMM Program
    The Exchange believes the proposed MRUT LMM Incentive Program is
reasonable, equitable and not unfairly discriminatory. Particularly,
the proposed MRUT LMM Incentive Program is a reasonable financial
incentive program because the proposed heightened quoting standards and
rebate amount for meeting the heightened quoting standards in MRUT
series are reasonably designed to incentivize an appointed LMM to meet
the proposed heightened quoting standards during RTH for MRUT, thereby
providing liquid and active markets, which facilitates tighter spreads,
increased trading opportunities, and overall

enhanced market quality to the benefit of all market participants,
particularly in a newly listed and traded product on the Exchange
during the trading day. The Exchange believes that the proposed
heightened quoting standards are reasonable because they are similar to
the detail and format (specific expiration categories and corresponding
premiums, quote widths, and sizes) of the heightened quoting standards
currently in place for MSCI LMMs, SPESG LMMs, GTH SPX/SPXW LMMs and GTH
VIX LMMs.\17\ For example, the expiration categories are the same as
those for the GTH VIX LMM heightened quoting standards. The Exchange
believes the proposed smaller quote widths and sizes in the proposed
heightened quoting standards for MRUT LMMs reasonably reflect what the
Exchanges believes will be typical market characteristics in MRUT
options, given their smaller notional value and minimum increments and
general retail base, thus smaller, retail-sized orders. Moreover, the
Exchange believes that the proposed $20,000 monthly rebate for an LMM
that meets the proposed heightened quoting standards in MRUT in a month
is reasonable and equitable as it equal or comparable to the rebates
offered for other LMM incentive programs for other proprietary
products.\18\ For example, the MSCI LMM Incentive Program also offers
$20,000 per month for each MSCI series in which the appointed LMM meets
the given heighten quoting standards. The Exchange also believes it is
reasonable to offer an additional payment that corresponds to an MRUT
LMM's level of ADV in MRUT options, if it meets the heightened quoting
standards, because the proposed MRUT Volume Incentive Pool is a volume-
based incentive designed to further encourage LMMs to provide
significant liquidity in MRUT options during the trading day, which is
particularly important for a newly listed and traded options class on
the Exchange. The Exchange also offers many other volume-based
incentives in the Fees Schedule.\19\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \17\ See Cboe Options Fees Schedule, ``MSCI LMM Incentive
Program'', ``GTH VIX/VIXW LMM Incentive Program'', ``GTH SPX/SPXW
LMM Incentive Program'', and ``RTH SPESG LMM Incentive Program''.
    \18\ See id.
    \19\ See e.g., Cboe Options Fees Schedule, Volume Incentive
Program table, Liquidity Provider Sliding Scale table, Cboe Options
Clearing Trading Permit Holder Proprietary Products Sliding Scale
table, and Floor Broker ADV Discount table, each of which offers
reduced transaction fees for meeting various levels of options
volume.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Finally, the Exchange believes it is equitable and not unfairly
discriminatory to offer the financial incentive to MRUT LMMs pursuant
to the proposed MRUT LMM Incentive Program, because it will benefit all
market participants trading MRUT during RTH by encouraging the LMMs to
satisfy the heightened quoting standard, which incentivizes continuous
increased liquidity and thereby may provide more trading opportunities
and tighter spreads. Indeed, the Exchange notes that its LMMs serve a
crucial role in providing quotes and the opportunity for market
participants to trade MRUT, which can lead to increased volume,
providing for robust markets. The Exchange ultimately wishes to
sufficiently incentivize LMMs to provide liquid and active markets in
the newly listed and traded MRUT options during the trading day to
encourage liquidity, thereby protecting investors and the public
interest. The Exchange also notes that an LMM may have added costs each
month that it needs to undertake in order to satisfy that heightened
quoting standard (e.g., having to purchase additional logical
connectivity). The Exchange believes the proposed program is equitable
and not unfairly discriminatory because similar programs currently
exist for LMMs in other proprietary products,\20\ and the proposed
program will equally apply to any TPH that is appointed as a MRUT LMM.
Additionally, if an LMM does not satisfy the heightened quoting
standard in MRUT for any given month, then it simply will not receive
the offered payment for that month.

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

    The Exchange believes the proposed amendments to its Fee Schedule
will not impose any burden on competition that is not necessary or
appropriate in furtherance of the purposes of the Act. The Exchange
does not believe that the proposed rule change will impose any burden
on intramarket competition that is not necessary or appropriate in
furtherance of the purposes of the Act because the proposed MRUT
transactions fee and surcharge amounts for each separate type of market
participant will be assessed automatically and uniformly to all such
market participants, i.e., all qualifying Customer orders in MRUT will
be assessed the same amount, all Market-Maker orders in MRUT will be
assessed the same amount, and so on. Likewise, the proposed rule change
will uniformly exclude all transactions in MRUT from certain programs
and fees/surcharges (i.e., the AIM Contra Fee and Complex Surcharge),
as it currently does for XSP options or as it does for the Exchange's
other proprietary products. The Exchange does not believe that waiving
the MRUT transaction fees for Market-Makers and Firms in the first six
months of MRUT options listing and trading on the Exchange will impose
any burden on intramarket competition because these participants may,
as discussed above, provide key and distinct sources of liquidity,
which is particularly important for a newly listed and traded options
class on the Exchange. Also, Market-Makers and Firms take on a number
of obligations that other market participants do not have. Unlike other
market participants, Market-Makers take on quoting obligations and
other market making requirements and Firms must have higher capital
requirements, clear trades for other market participants, and must be
members of OCC. The Exchange also does not believe that the proposed
LMM incentive program for MRUT options would impose any burden on
intramarket competition because it applies to all LMMs appointed to
MRUT in a uniform manner, in the same way similar programs apply to
LMMs in other proprietary products today. To the extent these LMMs
receive a benefit that other market participants do not, as stated,
LMMs have different obligations and are held to different standards.
For example, LMMs play a crucial role in providing active and liquid
markets in their appointed products, especially in the newly developing
MRUT market, thereby providing a robust market which benefits all
market participants. Such Market-Makers also have obligations and
regulatory requirements that other participants do not have.
    The Exchange does not believe that the proposed rule change will
impose any burden on intermarket competition that is not necessary or
appropriate in furtherance of the purposes of the Act because the
propose fees assessed and rebates offered apply to a product
exclusively listed on the Exchange.
