and III below, which Items have been prepared by the self-regulatory
organization. The Commission is publishing this notice to solicit

I. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Terms of the
Substance of the Proposed Rule Change
The Exchange proposes to amend its rules by revising the order of
priority of bids and offers when executing orders in open outcry. The
text of the proposed rule change is available on the Exchange's Web
site 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.
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 rules governing the priority of
bids and offers on the Consolidated Book by revising the order of
priority of bids and offers for orders in open outcry. Specifically,
the Exchange proposes to afford priority to bids and offers represented
by Market Makers and Floor Brokers (``Crowd Participants'') over
certain equal-priced bids and offers of non-Customers \4\ on the
Consolidated Book \5\ during the execution of an order in open outcry
on the floor of the Exchange.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\4\ A non-Customer is a market participant who does not meet the
definition of Customer as defined in paragraph (c)(6) of Rule 15c3-1
under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. See Rule
6.1(b)(29).
\5\ The term ``Consolidated Book'' means the Exchange's
electronic book of limit orders for the accounts of Public Customers
and broker-dealers, and Quotes with Size. See Rule 6.1(b)(37).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Current Rule 6.75(a) provides that any bids displayed on the
Consolidated Book have priority over same-priced bids represented in
open outcry. Such priority is also described in Rule 6.47, which
governs crossing orders in open outcry. Floor Broker crossing
transactions, as defined in Rule 6.47, may not trade ahead of equal and
better-priced bids or offers on the Consolidated Book.
Because of the priority afforded to the Consolidated Book, Crowd
Participants who have negotiated a large transaction ultimately may not
participate in the execution. Crowd Participants could negotiate a
transaction with an understanding of the make-up of bids and offers on
the Consolidated Book at the beginning of open outcry. However, as the
trade is executed, the Consolidated Book could update with newly-
arriving electronically-entered
[[Page 6259]]
bids and offers that have priority. Given the speed at which quotes can
flicker in the Consolidated Book, Crowd Participants who have agreed to
a transaction in open outcry do not know if they will actually
participate on the trade until after execution.
In order to provide greater opportunity for bids and offers of
Crowd Participants to participate in an open outcry transaction and
therefore promote larger-sized negotiated transactions, the Exchange
proposes to restructure its priority rules. As proposed, bids and
offers of Crowd Participants would have priority over equal-priced bids
and offers of non-Customers on the Consolidated Book that are ranked in
time priority behind any equal-priced Customer bids and offers on the
Consolidated Book. As proposed, equal-priced Customer interest would
continue to be afforded priority over Crowd Participants in the
execution of an open outcry transaction. In addition, consistent with
the existing price/time priority presently applicable to bids and
offers on the Consolidated Book, equal-priced non-Customer bids and
offers ranked in time priority ahead of Customer interest will also be
afforded priority over Crowd Participants in the execution of an open
outcry transaction. The Exchange believes the proposed rule change
strikes the appropriate balance between encouraging larger negotiated
transactions in open outcry while at the same time protecting Customer
interest on the Consolidated Book, and any interest that has time
priority over such protected Customer interest.
To effect this proposed revision to its priority rules, the
Exchange proposes to amend its rules as follows:
Rule 6.75. Priority and Order Allocation Procedures--Open Outcry.
Rule 6.75(a) presently states that the highest bid shall have priority
but where two or more bids for the same option contract represent the
highest price and one such bid is displayed on the Consolidated Book,
such bid shall have priority over any bid at the post (i.e., the
trading crowd). The Exchange proposes to amend Rule 6.75(a) by limiting
the priority of bids in the Consolidated Book over bids in the trading
crowd to just those bids for Customers along with non-Customers that
are ranked in time priority ahead of such Customers.
The Exchange notes that the changes made to subsection (a) dealing
with the priority of ``bids'' will also effect a corresponding change
to the meaning of subsection (b) dealing with ``offers'', although
there will be no change to the rule text in subsection (b).
Rule 6.76. Order Ranking and Display--OX. Rule 6.76 governs order
ranking, display and allocation of orders on the OX system. The
Exchange is proposing new subparagraph (d) outlining the priority of
bids and offers on the Consolidated Book against orders executed via
open outcry in the Trading Crowd. The proposed text provides a step-by
step-description of the order of priority afforded bids and offers of
both Customers and non-Customers on the Consolidated Book. The priority
described in proposed subparagraph (d) is consistent with the proposed
changes to Rule 6.75.
The Exchange also proposes to include language in subparagraph (d)
specifying certain OTP Holder obligations under Section 11(a) of the
Act. Specifically, pursuant to Section 11(a)(1)(G) of the Exchange Act
and Rule 11a1-1(T) thereunder (the ``G Rule''), OTP Holders may effect
transactions on the Trading Floor for its own account [sic], the
account of an associated person, or an account with respect to which it
or an associated person has investment discretion provided that such
transaction yields priority in execution to orders for the account of
persons who are not OTP Holders or associated with OTP Holders. The
proposed rule text will confirm that notwithstanding the proposed
change to the priority rules governing open outcry trading, an OTP
Holder effecting a transaction on the Trading Floor for its own
account, the account of an associated person, or an account with
respect to which it or an associated person has investment discretion
pursuant to the ``G Rule'' must still yield priority to all equal-
priced bids or offers on the Consolidated Book.\6\ The proposed rule
text is based on the rules of the Chicago Board Options Exchange, Inc.
(``CBOE'') and NYSE MKT LLC (``NYSE MKT'') on behalf of NYSE Amex
Options.\7\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\6\ The Exchange notes that at this time, none of the OTP
Holders that currently operate on the Exchange's Trading Floor as
Floor Brokers enter orders for their own account, the account of an
associated person, or an account with respect to which it or an
associated person has investment discretion. The Exchange notes,
however, that FINRA, on behalf of NYSE Regulation, monitors whether
Floor Brokers comply with Section 11(a) of the Act.
\7\ See CBOE Rule 6.45A(b)(i)(D) and NYSE MKT Rule 910NY.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Exchange believes that including a description of open outcry
priority procedures in Rule 6.76 will serve as a useful cross reference
to the priority procedures of Rule 6.75. Including such a cross
reference is consistent with similar rule structure by the CBOE and
NYSE MKT.\8\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\8\ See CBOE Rule 6.45A(b) and NYSE MKT Rule 964NY(e).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Rule 6.47. Crossing Orders--OX. Rule 6.47 outlines the procedures
used when a Floor Broker attempts to cross two orders in open outcry.
Under current rules, Floor Brokers must trade against all equal-priced
Customer and non-Customer bids and offers on the Consolidated Book
before effecting a cross transaction in the Trading Crowd. The Exchange
proposes to make applicable changes to Rule 6.47 to conform the
priority rules applicable to open outcry cross transactions to the
proposed changes to Rule 6.75(b) [sic]. Accordingly, the Exchange
proposes to amend the procedures for each crossing scenario described
in Rule 6.47 by stating that Floor Brokers, when crossing two orders in
open outcry, must yield priority to equal and better-priced Customer
bids or offers on the Consolidated Book along with any non-Customer
bids and offers ranked ahead of such Customers bids and offers.
Pursuant to these proposed rule changes, Floor Brokers would
continue to be required to trade against equal and better-priced
Customer bids and offers on the Consolidated Book along with bids and
offers of non-Customers that are ranked ahead of such Customers before
attempting a cross transaction. Consistent with the proposed change to
Rule 6.75(a), Floor Brokers would not be required to trade against
equal-priced non-Customer bids and offers that are ranked behind such
Customer and non-Customer bids and offers. The Exchange believes that
affording priority to Crowd Participants ahead of such non-Customer
interest on the Consolidated Book will create an increased incentive
for block-sized transactions on the Trading Floor.
Examples
The revised priority and order allocation procedures would be
applied as follows.
Ranking of bids on the Consolidated Book (assume this for all
examples)
Customer 1--$1.00 bid x 100
Non-Customer 1--$1.00 bid x 50
Customer 2--$1.00 bid x 100
Non-Customer 2--$1.00 bid x 200
Non-Customer 3--$1.00 bid x 100
Example 1
A Floor Broker enters the trading crowd with an order to sell
1000 contracts and after calling for a market, Crowd Participants
respond with a collective bid of $1.00 for 1000 contracts. Under
current rules, the Floor Broker would be required to execute against
all five bids on the Consolidated Book for a total of 550 contracts,
thereby limiting the Crowd Participants to 450 contracts.
[[Page 6260]]
Pursuant to the proposed revised order of priority, the Floor Broker
would execute the order as follows:
Customer 1--100 contracts
Non-Customer 1--50 contracts
Customer 2--100 contracts
Trading Crowd--750 contracts
As such, the Floor Broker would execute 750 contracts with Crowd
Participants instead of 450 contracts. Consistent with proposed
changes to Rule 6.75(a), the Floor Broker yielded priority to all
equal-priced Customer interest (Customers 1 and
2), along with bids of non-Customers ranked ahead of such
equal priced Customers (non-Customer 1). After affording
priority to such bids on the Consolidated Book, the Floor Broker
executed the balance of the order against bids from participants in
the trading crowd. Because there was sufficient size to execute the
entire balance of the order in the Trading Crowd, there is no
further allocation to the non-Customers ranked behind Customer
interest on the Consolidated Book.
Example 2
A Floor Broker enters the trading crowd with an order to sell
1300 contracts and a contra order to buy 500 contracts. After
calling for a market, Crowd Participants respond with a bid of $1.00
for 500 contracts. The Floor Broker then announces his intent to
execute a Non-Facilitation Cross at $1.00 pursuant to Rule 6.47(a).
Under current rules, the Floor Broker would be required to execute
against all five bids on the Consolidated Book for a total of 550
contracts, thereby limiting the Crowd Participants and the Floor
Broker cross order to an aggregate of 750 contracts. Pursuant to the
proposed revised order of priority, the Floor Broker would execute
his sell order as follows:
Customer 1--100 contracts
Non-Customer 1--50 contracts
Customer 2--100 contracts
Trading Crowd--500 contracts
Broker Cross--500 contracts
Non-customer--2 50 contracts
Consistent with proposed changes to Rule 6.75(a), the Floor
Broker yielded priority to all equal-priced Customer interest
(Customers 1 and 2), along with bids of non-
Customers ranked ahead of those equal-priced Customers (non-Customer
1). After affording priority to such bids on the
Consolidated Book, the Floor Broker traded with members of the
trading crowd and then crossed his sell order against his contra-
side buy order. The Floor Broker then traded the balance of his sell
order against the non-Customer bids that were ranked behind Customer
interest on the Consolidated Book. The non-Customer bids were
executed pursuant to their ranking on the Consolidated Book based on
time priority.
Example 3
A Floor Broker enters the trading crowd with an Agency Order to
sell 1000 contracts and a buy order for the proprietary account of
an OTP Firm to facilitate the entire size of the Agency Order
(''Facilitation Order''). After calling for a market, Crowd
Participants respond with a bid of $1.00 for 1000 contracts. The
Floor Broker then announces his intent to execute a Facilitation
Cross at $1.00 pursuant to Rule 6.47(b). Under current rules, the
Floor Broker would be required to first execute against all five
bids on the Consolidated Book for a total of 550 contracts, leaving
450 contracts to be allocated between the Facilitation Order and the
trading crowd. Of the 450 remaining contracts, the Facilitation
Order would be allocated 180 contracts (40% of 450) with 270 going
to the trading crowd. Pursuant to the proposed revised order of
priority, the Floor Broker would execute his sell order as follows:
Customer 1--100 contracts
Non-Customer 1--50 contracts
Customer 2--100 contracts
Firm Facilitation--300 contracts
Trading Crowd--450 contracts
Consistent with proposed changes to Rule 6.75(a), the Floor
Broker yielded priority to all equal-priced Customer bids (Customers
1 and 2), along with bids of non-Customers ranked
ahead of those equal-priced Customers (non-Customer 1).
After affording priority to such bids on the Consolidated Book, the
Floor Broker was left with 750 contracts. The Facilitation order is
entitled to participate on 40% of the balance of the Agency Order
(300 contracts) and the balance of 450 contracts would be allocated
to members of the trading crowd.
The Exchange believes that providing greater opportunity for large-
sized orders to execute in open outcry while also protecting Customer
interest will encourage participants to send more liquidity to Floor
Brokers, thereby resulting in a larger pool of liquidity on the
Exchange that would not otherwise be available electronically. The
Exchange further believes that the proposed change in priority will
provide an incentive for Crowd Participants, including Floor-based
Market Makers, to provide deeper liquidity when participating in open
outcry transactions as there will be greater certainty of an execution.
The Exchange notes that affording priority to Crowd Participants over
non-Customers is not a new or novel idea. Other hybrid markets such as
the CBOE and NYSE Amex Options afford Crowd Participants priority over
non-Customer electronic bids and offers on their respective market.\9\
The only substantive difference between the priority procedures being
proposed in this filing and those presently in place at the CBOE and
NYSE Amex Options is that the Exchange proposes to afford priority to
bids and offers of non-Customers on the Consolidated Book, ranked ahead
of any equal-priced Customers on the Consolidated Book, over members of
the trading crowd. On the CBOE and NYSE Amex Options, crowd
participants have priority over all equal priced non-Customers in the
Consolidated Book.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\9\ Supra Note No. 7.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Non-Substantive Rule Changes
The Exchange is also proposing to make non-substantive changes to
existing rule text contained in Rules 6.47 and 6.75. Currently, the
terms ``Book'' and ``Consolidated Book'' are both used in Rule 6.47
when referring to the Exchange's electronic book of limit orders for
the accounts of Public Customers and broker-dealers, and Quotes with
Size. The Exchange now proposes to standardize the rule language by
replacing ``Book'' with the defined term ``Consolidated Book''.\10\ In
addition, Rules 6.47 and 6.75 currently use the terms ``in'' and ``on''
when referring to orders, quotes or bids and offers contained on/in the
Consolidated Book. The Exchange now proposes to standardize the rule
language by replacing ``in'' with ``on'' whenever referring to orders,
quotes and bids and offers on the Consolidated Book.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\10\ See NYSE Arca Rule 6.1(b)(37).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Implementation
The Exchange will announce the implementation date of the proposed
rule change by Trader Update to be published no later than 90 days
following approval. The implementation date will be no later than 90
days following the issuance of the Trader Update.
2. Statutory Basis
The proposed rule change is consistent with Section 6(b) \11\ of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the ``Act''), in general, and
furthers the objectives of Section 6(b)(5),\12\ in particular, in that
it is 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 facilitating
transactions in securities, and to remove impediments to and perfect
the mechanisms of a free and open market and a national market system.
The Exchange believes that the proposed rule change will remove
impediments to and perfect the mechanism of a free and open market by
restructuring relative priorities between bids and offers made on the
floor compared to non-Customers in the Consolidated Book in order to
provide an incentive both for Floor Brokers to represent orders in open
outcry and for Floor-based Market Makers to participate in open outcry
transactions. The Exchange believes that
[[Page 6261]]
the negotiated nature of open outcry transactions lends itself to
larger-sized transactions than the liquidity that is generally
available electronically and the proposed rule change would encourage
greater participation in such open outcry trading by reducing the
potential that a negotiated transaction would be broken up. The
Exchange therefore believes that affording priority to Crowd
Participants ahead of certain non-Customer interest on the Consolidated
Book creates an opportunity for increased participation on open outcry
transactions, which should result in larger-sized negotiated
transactions, while at the same time protecting Customer interest. The
Exchange believes that this in turn will lead to greater competition
for orders creating a more robust open outcry market, which should
benefit investors who choose to send orders to the Exchange. The
Exchange further believes that protecting non-Customer interest on the
Consolidated Book that is ranked ahead of Customer interest is
consistent with just and equitable principles of trade because it
maintains the Exchange's existing price/time priority rules by
protecting interest that has time priority over Customer interest that
has priority.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\11\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b).
\12\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
In addition, the proposed rule change is consistent with Section
11A(a)(1)(C) of the Act,\13\ in which Congress found that it is in the
public interest and appropriate for the protection of investors and the
maintenance of fair and orderly markets to assure, among other things,
the economically efficient execution of securities transactions. The
Exchange notes that the proposed rule change is also consistent with
Section 11(a) of the Act and the rules thereunder. The Exchange
believes that affording priority to OTP Holders present in the trading
crowd over certain electronic non-Customer orders raises no novel
issues under Section 11(a) and the rules thereunder from a compliance,
surveillance or enforcement perspective. In other words, OTP Holders on
the Floor are currently required to comply and are subject to review
for compliance with Section 11(a), and the rules thereunder, when
executing transactions in open outcry and notwithstanding the proposed
rule change, they will still be required to comply with Section 11(a)
and the rules thereunder. For example, in cases where an OTP Holder
acting as a Floor Broker is trading for his own account and attempts to
execute a transaction at the same price as one or more orders on the
Consolidated Book, the Floor Broker, if he can rely on no exception
other than the ``G'' exception (Section 11(a)(1)(G); Rule 11a1-1(T)),
must, in addition to complying with the other requirements of the ``G''
exemption, yield to all orders in the Consolidated Book at the same
price if the Floor Broker has no ability to determine that an order in
the Consolidated Book is not the order of a non-OTP Holder.\14\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\13\ 15 U.S.C. 78k-1(a)(1)(C).
\14\ The Exchange notes that only orders that are represented by
a Floor Broker are eligible for crossing via the Solicited Order
procedures. If the Floor Broker represents an order for its own
account, the account of an associated person, or an account with
respect to which it or an associated person has investment
discretion, the member order must satisfy the requirements of
Section 11(a) of the Act and the rules thereunder. The Exchange has
previously represented that OTP Holders (members) may not rely on
the exception found in Section 11(a)(1)(G) of the Act when utilizing
the Solicited Order procedures. See Securities Exchange Act Release
No. 54238 (July 28, 2006) 71 FR 44758, 44763 at n.43 (August 7,
2006).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The restrictions set forth in NYSE Arca Rule 6.76(d)(4) would not
limit in any way the obligation of OTP Holders, while acting as a Floor
Broker or otherwise, to comply with Section 11(a) or the rules
thereunder. For example, Floor Brokers cannot avoid or circumvent their
obligations under Section 11(a) when executing a transaction on the
floor simply by transferring that order to another OTP Holder on the
floor or to an OTP Holder off the floor of the Exchange. OTP Holders
must ensure compliance with Section 11(a) and the rules thereunder,
including by relying upon an exemption such as those listed above.
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. The Exchange believes that
competition for participation in open outcry transactions will be
enhanced by allowing the Crowd Participants to compete at price points
that were previously unavailable because of non-Customer orders on the
Consolidated Book, thereby promoting competition by encouraging
participation in large-sized negotiated transactions. In addition,
because this proposal seeks to adopt rules that are more closely
aligned with those of other Exchanges [sic] operating a hybrid market,
the Exchange does not believe that the proposed rule changes will
create an undue burden on other markets. Rather, the Exchange believes
that not approving this proposed rule change would place the Exchange
at a competitive disadvantage vis-[agrave]-vis other Exchanges that
operate a trading floor.
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
Within 45 days of the date of publication of this notice in the
Federal Register or within such longer period (i) as the Commission may
designate up to 90 days of such date if it finds such longer period to
be appropriate and publishes its reasons for so finding or (ii) as to
which the self-regulatory organization consents, the Commission will:
(A) By order approve or disapprove the proposed rule change, or
(B) institute proceedings to determine whether the proposed rule
change should be disapproved.
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. The Commission solicits comment on
the impact of NYSE Arca's proposal to revise its priority scheme with
respect to non-Customer orders on the Exchange's Consolidated Book
during the execution of an order in open outcry on the Exchange's
floor. Commenters are invited to address the impact, if any, of the
proposed rule change on competition on the Exchange's floor and on its
Consolidated Book, including the impact, if any, on market
participants' incentives to post interest on the Consolidated Book, and
the reasons for any such view. In the Notice, the Exchange argues that
the proposal would create an opportunity for increased crowd
participation in open outcry transactions and would lead to greater
competition for orders brought to the Exchange's floor. Commenters are
invited to address these arguments. Further, in the Notice, the
Exchange states that the proposal will more closely align the
Exchange's rules with those of other exchanges operating a hybrid
market. Commenters also are invited to provide their views on the
differences and/or similarities between NYSE Arca's proposal and the
pertinent CBOE and NYSE MKT priority rules and how, if at all, the
overall priority structure of the three exchanges (public
[[Page 6262]]
customer/pro rata in comparison to price/time) impacts their view.
