Self-Regulatory Organizations; Notice of Filing and Immediate Effectiveness of Proposed Rule Change by New York Stock Exchange LLC To Amend the Exchange Price List

Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Act”) and Rule 19b-4 thereunder, notice is hereby given that, on September 30, 2010, New York Stock Exchange LLC (“NYSE” or the “Exchange”) 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 self-regulatory organization. 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

The Exchange proposes to amend its 2010 Price List to assess monthly fees for the use of all ports that provide connectivity to its equity trading systems. The monthly fee for ports will be $100 per pair per month up to five pairs, then $500 for each additional five pairs. In its table of credits applicable to Supplemental Liquidity Providers (“SLPs”), the Exchange is modifying language referencing the SLP quoting requirement to reflect a recent rule filing that changed the standard from 3% to 10% of the regular trading day in any calendar month in order to receive a financial rebate and also added a volume requirement. The amended pricing will take effect on October 1, 2010. The text of the proposed rule change is available at the Exchange, at http://www.nyse.com,, at the Commission's Public Reference Room, and on the Commission's Web site at http://www.sec.gov.

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 2010 Price List to assess monthly fees for the use of all ports that provide connectivity to its equity trading systems. A number of other markets already charge such fees, but the Exchange has not previously done so.

The level of activity with respect to a particular port will not affect the assessment of monthly fees, so even if a particular port that is available to a participant is not used, the participant will still be billed for that port. The monthly fee for ports will be $100 per pair per month up to five pairs, then $500 for each additional five pairs. For example, the fee for seven pairs of ports will be $1,000 per month. Billing for ports will be based on the number of ports on the third business day prior to the end of the month.

In its table of credits applicable to SLPs, the Exchange is modifying language referencing the SLP quoting requirement to reflect a recent rule filing that changed the standard from 3% to 10% of the regular trading day in any calendar month in order to receive a financial rebate and also added a volume requirement.

These changes are intended to be effective immediately for all transactions beginning October 1, 2010.

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”), in general, and Section 6(b)(4) of the Act, 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. The Exchange believes that the proposal does not constitute an inequitable allocation of fees, as all similarly situated member organizations will be charged the same amount and access to the Exchange's market is offered on fair and non-discriminatory terms.

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) of the Act and subparagraph (f)(2) of Rule 19b-4 thereunder, because it establishes a due, fee, or other charge imposed on its members by the NYSE.

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.
