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

    ISE Gemini is proposing to amend its Schedule of Fees to adopt 
subscription fees for its market data offerings. The text of the 
proposed rule change is available on the Exchange's Internet Web site 
at http://www.ise.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 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 purpose of the proposed rule filing is to amend the Schedule of 
Fees to adopt subscription fees for three ISE Gemini market data 
offerings: the ISE Gemini order feed (``Order Feed''), the ISE Gemini 
top quote feed (``Top Quote Feed''), and the ISE Gemini real-time depth 
of market data feed (``Depth Feed''), which were established by an 
immediately effective rule change filed on December 5, 2013.\3\ Each of 
these market data offerings is presently available without charge, and 
going forward will be made available to both members and non-members, 
and to both professional and non-professional subscribers, on a 
subscription basis as described in more detail below.\4\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 71087 (December 5, 
2013) 78 FR 77545 (December 23, 2013) (SR-Topaz-2013-17).
    \4\ See id.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Order Feed
    The Order Feed provides real-time updates to subscribers every time 
a new limit order that is not immediately executable at the BBO is 
placed on the ISE Gemini order book. The Order Feed also announces the 
commencement of auctions including Flash, Facilitation, Solicitation, 
Block Order and Price Improvement Mechanisms, as well as Directed 
Orders, but does not include Immediate or Cancel (``IOC'') or Fill or 
Kill (``FOK'') orders, quotes, or any non-displayed interest. The 
information included on the Order Feed includes auction type, order 
side (i.e., buy/sell), order price, order size, and a market 
participant (e.g., priority customer) indicator, as well as details for 
each instrument series, including the symbols (series and underlying 
security), put or call indicator, the expiration date, and the strike 
price of the series. While the Options Price Reporting Authority 
(``OPRA'') feed, as well as the Top Quote and Depth Feeds each provide 
aggregated order and quote information, the Order Feed provides each 
individual limit order, not including quote traffic, resulting in lower 
bandwidth usage and less data for subscribers to process.
    The Exchange proposes to charge distributors $500 per month for 
subscriptions to the Order Feed and will not charge distributors a 
monthly fee per controlled device as long the feed is for internal use 
only.\5\ For subscribers that redistribute the Order Feed externally, 
or redistribute the Order Feed internally and externally, the Exchange 
proposes to charge each distributor an additional fee of $5 per month 
per controlled device with a combined maximum fee capped at $625 per 
month. For example, a firm that subscribes to the Order Feed and then 
redistributes it via controlled device to 10 clients will pay $550 per 
month ($500 for the feed and $50 for the controlled devices ($5 x 10)). 
If that same firm redistributes the data via controlled device to 50 
clients, the fee for that firm will be capped at $625 per month, 
resulting in a savings of $125.\6\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ A distributor is any firm that receives one of the market 
data feeds directly from ISE Gemini or indirectly through a 
redistributor and then distributes it either internally or 
externally. A redistributor includes market data vendors and 
connectivity providers such as extranets and private network 
providers.
    \6\ Fee caps described below for the Top Quote and Depth Feeds 
operate in the same manner as described here with respect to the 
Order Feed.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Top Quote & Depth Feeds
    The Top Quote and Depth Feeds are each real-time market data feeds 
that aggregate non-marketable, displayed quotes and orders on the 
Exchange on both the bid and offer side of the market. The Top Quote 
Feed provides aggregate quotes and orders at the top price level on the 
Exchange, and provides subscribers with a consolidated view of tradable 
prices at the BBO or ``top of book.'' The Depth Feed, on the other 
hand, provides aggregate quotes and orders at the top five price levels 
on the Exchange, and provides subscribers with a consolidated view of 
tradable prices beyond the BBO, showing additional liquidity and 
enhancing transparency for ISE Gemini traded options. The data provided 
for each instrument includes the symbols (series and underlying 
security), put or call indicator, expiration date, the strike price of 
the series, and trading status. In addition, subscribers are provided 
with total quantity, customer quantity (if present), price, and side 
(i.e., bid/ask). This information is provided for the top price level 
on the Top Quote Feed, and for each of the five indicated price levels 
on the Depth Feed.
    The Exchange proposes to charge distributors $1,000 per month for 
subscriptions to the Top Quote Feed, which will allow both internal use 
and external distribution to professional or non-professional 
subscribers.\7\ In addition, the Exchange proposes to charge each 
distributor a fee of $5 per month per controlled device for 
professional subscribers,\8\ with a combined maximum fee capped at 
$1,250 per month for internal use or $1,500 per month for external 
redistribution or for internal and external redistribution. There will 
be no monthly controlled device fees applicable to non-professional 
subscribers. Customers who also subscribe to the Depth Feed will not 
pay a separate fee for the Top Quote Feed, as the Top Quote Feed is 
embedded in the Depth Feed.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ Firms that redistribute the Top Quote Feed via controlled 
device to both professional and non-professional subscriber clients 
will only pay a single $1,000 per month fee plus the applicable 
controlled device fees for professional subscribers as described 
below.
    \8\ A controlled device is any device that a distributor permits 
to access the information in an ISE Gemini market data feed.

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

[[Page 11842]]

    The Exchange proposes to charge distributors $1,500 per month for 
subscriptions to the Depth Feed, which will allow both internal use and 
external distribution to professional or non-professional 
subscribers.\9\ Each distributor will also be charged $10 per month per 
controlled device for professional subscribers, with a combined maximum 
fee capped at $2,000 per month for internal use or $2,500 per month for 
external redistribution, and $1 per month per controlled device for 
non-professional subscribers, with a combined maximum fee capped at 
$2,500 per month.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \9\ Firms that redistribute the Depth Feed via controlled device 
to both professional and non-professional subscriber clients will 
only pay a single $1,500 per month fee plus the applicable 
controlled device fees for each as described below.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Multi-Product Subscription Discount
    In order to encourage subscriptions to multiple market data feeds, 
the Exchange proposes to adopt a multi-product subscription discount. 
Subscription fees will be discounted by 10% for customers who subscribe 
to two of these data feeds. As customers who subscribe to the Depth 
Feed and Top Quote Feed will only pay fees for the Depth Feed, such 
subscription counts as one feed for the purpose of the discount.
2. Statutory Basis
    The Exchange believes that its proposal is consistent with Section 
6(b) of the Act,\10\ in general, and furthers the objectives of Section 
6(b)(4) of the Act,\11\ in particular, in that it provides for an 
equitable allocation of reasonable fees and other charges among 
Exchange Members and other persons using its facilities.

    \11\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(4).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange believes that the proposed rule change is also 
consistent with Section 6(b)(8) of the Act,\12\ in that it does not 
impose any burden on competition not necessary or appropriate in 
furtherance of the purposes of the Act. The proposed fees are the same 
for all similarly-situated market participants, and therefore do not 
unreasonably discriminate among market participants.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \12\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(8).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In adopting Regulation NMS, the Commission granted self-regulatory 
organizations and broker-dealers increased authority and flexibility to 
offer new and unique market data to the public. It was believed that 
this authority would expand the amount of data available to consumers, 
and also spur innovation and competition for the provision of market 
data.
    The Commission concluded that Regulation NMS--by deregulating the 
market in proprietary data--would itself further the Act's goals of 
facilitating efficiency and competition:

[E]fficiency is promoted when broker-dealers who do not need the 
data beyond the prices, sizes, market center identifications of the 
NBBO and consolidated last sale information are not required to 
receive (and pay for) such data. The Commission also believes that 
efficiency is promoted when broker-dealers may choose to receive 
(and pay for) additional market data based on their own internal 
analysis of the need for such data.\13\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \13\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 51808 (June 9, 
2005), 70 FR 37496 (June 29, 2005).

    By removing ``unnecessary regulatory restrictions'' on the ability 
of exchanges to sell their own data, Regulation NMS advanced the goals 
of the Act and the principles reflected in its legislative history. If 
the free market should determine whether proprietary data is sold to 
broker-dealers at all, it follows that the price at which such data is 
sold should be set by the market as well.
    On July 21, 2010, President Barak Obama signed into law H.R. 4173, 
the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 
(``Dodd-Frank Act''), which amended Section 19 of the Act. Among other 
things, Section 916 of the Dodd-Frank Act amended paragraph (A) of 
Section 19(b)(3) of the Act by inserting the phrase ``on any person, 
whether or not the person is a member of the self-regulatory 
organization'' after ``due, fee or other charge imposed by the self-
regulatory organization.'' As a result, all SRO rule proposals 
establishing or changing dues, fees, or other charges are immediately 
effective upon filing regardless of whether such dues, fees, or other 
charges are imposed on members of the SRO, non-members, or both. 
Section 916 further amended paragraph (C) of Section 19(b)(3) of the 
Act to read, in pertinent part, ``At any time within the 60-day period 
beginning on the date of filing of such a proposed rule change in 
accordance with the provisions of paragraph (1) [of Section 19(b)], the 
Commission summarily may temporarily suspend the change in the rules of 
the self-regulatory organization made thereby, 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 this title. If the Commission takes such action, the 
Commission shall institute proceedings under paragraph (2)(B) [of 
Section 19(b)] to determine whether the proposed rule should be 
approved or disapproved.''
    The decision of the United States Court of Appeals for the District 
of Columbia Circuit in NetCoalition v. SEC, 615 F.3d 525 (D.C. Cir. 
2010), although reviewing a Commission decision made prior to the 
effective date of the Dodd-Frank Act, upheld the Commission's reliance 
upon competitive markets to set reasonable and equitably allocated fees 
for market data. ``In fact, the legislative history indicates that the 
Congress intended that the market system `evolve through the interplay 
of competitive forces as unnecessary regulatory restrictions are 
removed' and that the SEC wield its regulatory power `in those 
situations where competition may not be sufficient,' such as in the 
creation of a `consolidated transactional reporting system.''' \14\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \14\ NetCoalition, at 535 (quoting H.R. Rep. No. 94-229, at 92 
(1975), as reprinted in 1975 U.S.C.C.A.N. 321, 323).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The court's conclusions about Congressional intent are therefore 
reinforced by the Dodd-Frank Act amendments, which create a presumption 
that exchange fees, including market data fees, may take effect 
immediately, without prior Commission approval, and that the Commission 
should take action to suspend a fee change and institute a proceeding 
to determine whether the fee change should be approved or disapproved 
only where the Commission has concerns that the change may not be 
consistent with the Act.
    The Exchange believes that the proposed fees for the ISE Gemini 
market data offerings are consistent with the requirements of the Act 
because competition provides an effective constraint on the market data 
fees that the Exchange has the ability and the incentive to charge. ISE 
Gemini has a compelling need to attract order flow from market 
participants in order to maintain its share of trading volume. This 
compelling need to attract order flow imposes significant pressure on 
the Exchange to act reasonably in setting the fees for its market data 
offerings, particularly given that the market participants that will 
pay such fees often will be the same market participants from whom the 
Exchange must attract order flow. These market participants include 
broker-dealers that control the handling of a large volume of customer 
and proprietary order flow. Given the portability of order flow from 
one exchange to another, any exchange that sought to charge 
unreasonably high market data fees would risk alienating many of the 
same customers on whose

[[Page 11843]]

orders it depends for competitive survival. ISE Gemini currently 
competes with 11 other options exchanges for order flow.
    The Exchange is constrained in pricing its market data offerings by 
the availability to market participants of alternatives to purchasing 
these products. The Exchange must consider the extent to which market 
participants would choose one or more alternatives instead of 
purchasing the Exchange's data.
    For the reasons cited above, the Exchange believes that the 
proposed fees for the ISE Gemini data feeds are equitable, fair, 
reasonable and not unreasonably discriminatory. The Exchange further 
believes that the continued availability of each of the ISE Gemini data 
feeds enhances transparency, fosters competition among orders and 
markets, and enables buyers and sellers to obtain better prices. In 
addition, the Exchange believes that no substantial countervailing 
basis exists to support a finding that the proposed terms and fees for 
these products fail to meet the requirements of the Act. Moreover, the 
Exchange notes that the proposed fees are lower than fees currently 
charged by ISE Gemini's sister exchange, the International Securities 
Exchange, LLC (``ISE''), which offers its own market data feeds that 
provide comparable information to that provided by the ISE Gemini order 
feeds.\15\

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

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

    In accordance with Section 6(b)(8) of the Act,\16\ the Exchange 
does not believe that the proposed rule change will impose any burden 
on intermarket or intramarket competition that is not necessary or 
appropriate in furtherance of the purposes of the Act. Notwithstanding 
its determination that the Commission may rely upon competition to 
establish fair and equitably allocated fees for market data, the 
NetCoalition court found that the Commission had not, in that case, 
compiled a record that adequately supported its conclusion that the 
market for the data at issue in the case was competitive. The Exchange 
believes that a record may readily be established to demonstrate the 
competitive nature of the market in question.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \16\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(8).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    For the reasons discussed above, the Exchange believes that the 
Dodd-Frank Act amendments to Section 19 materially alter the scope of 
the Commission's review of future market data filings, by creating a 
presumption that all fees may take effect immediately, without prior 
analysis by the Commission of the competitive environment. Even in the 
absence of this important statutory change, however, the Exchange 
believes that a record may readily be established to demonstrate the 
competitive nature of the market in question.
    There is intense competition between trading platforms that provide 
transaction execution and routing services and proprietary data 
products. Transaction execution and proprietary data products are 
complementary in that market data is both an input and a byproduct of 
the execution service. In fact, market data and trade execution are a 
paradigmatic example of joint products with joint costs. The decision 
whether and on which platform to post an order will depend on the 
attributes of the platform where the order can be posted, including the 
execution fees, data quality and price and distribution of its data 
products. Without the prospect of a taking order seeing and reacting to 
a posted order on a particular platform, the posting of the order would 
accomplish little. Without trade executions, exchange data products 
cannot exist. Data products are valuable to many end users only insofar 
as they provide information that end users expect will assist them or 
their customers in making trading decisions.
    The costs of producing market data include not only the costs of 
the data distribution infrastructure, but also the costs of designing, 
maintaining, and operating the exchange's transaction execution 
platform and the cost of regulating the exchange to ensure its fair 
operation and maintain investor confidence. The total return that a 
trading platform earns reflects the revenues it receives from both 
products and the joint costs it incurs. Moreover, an exchange's 
customers view the costs of transaction executions and of data as a 
unified cost of doing business with the exchange. A broker-dealer will 
direct orders to a particular exchange only if the expected revenues 
from executing trades on the exchange exceed net transaction execution 
costs and the cost of data that the broker-dealer chooses to buy to 
support its trading decisions (or those of its customers). The choice 
of data products is, in turn, a product of the value of the products in 
making profitable trading decisions. If the cost of the product exceeds 
its expected value, the broker-dealer will choose not to buy it.
    Moreover, as a broker-dealer chooses to direct fewer orders to a 
particular exchange, the value of the product to that broker-dealer 
decrease, for two reasons. First, the product will contain less 
information, because executions of the broker-dealer's orders will not 
be reflected in it. Second, and perhaps more important, the product 
will be less valuable to that broker-dealer because it does not provide 
information about the venue to which it is directing its orders. Data 
from the competing venue to which the broker-dealer is directing orders 
will become correspondingly more valuable. Thus, a super-competitive 
increase in the fees charged for either transactions or data has the 
potential to impair revenues from both products. ``No one disputes that 
competition for order flow is `fierce'.'' \17\ However, the existence 
of fierce competition for order flow implies a high degree of price 
sensitivity on the part of broker-dealers with order flow, since they 
may readily reduce costs by directing orders toward the lowest-cost 
trading venues. A broker-dealer that shifted its order flow from one 
platform to another in response to order execution price differentials 
would both reduce the value of that platform's market data and reduce 
its own need to consume data from the disfavored platform. Similarly, 
if a platform increases its market data fees, the change will affect 
the overall cost of doing business with the platform, and affected 
broker-dealers will assess whether they can lower their trading costs 
by directing orders elsewhere and thereby lessening the need for the 
more expensive data.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \17\ NetCoalition, at 24.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Analyzing the cost of market data distribution in isolation from 
the cost of all of the inputs supporting the creation of market data 
will inevitably underestimate the cost of the data. Thus, because it is 
impossible to create data without a fast, technologically robust, and 
well-regulated execution system, system costs and regulatory costs 
affect the price of market data. It would be equally misleading, 
however, to attribute all of the exchange's costs to the market data 
portion of an exchange's joint product. Rather, all of the exchange's 
costs are incurred for the unified purposes of attracting order flow, 
executing and/or routing orders, and generating and selling data about 
market activity. The total return that an exchange earns reflects the 
revenues it receives from the joint products and the total costs of the 
joint products.
    Competition among trading platforms can be expected to constrain 
the aggregate return each platform earns from the sale of its joint 
products, but

[[Page 11844]]

different platforms may choose from a range of possible, and equally 
reasonable, pricing strategies as the means of recovering total costs. 
For example, some platform may choose to pay rebates to attract orders, 
charge relatively low prices for market information (or provide 
information free of charge) and charge relatively high prices for 
accessing posted liquidity. Other platforms may choose a strategy of 
paying lower rebates (or no rebates) to attract orders, setting 
relatively high prices for market information, and setting relatively 
low prices for accessing posted liquidity. In this environment, there 
is no economic basis for regulating maximum prices for one of the joint 
products in an industry in which suppliers face competitive constraints 
with regard to the joint offering.
    The market for market data products is competitive and inherently 
contestable because there is fierce competition for the inputs 
necessary to the creation of proprietary data and strict pricing 
discipline for the proprietary products themselves. Numerous exchanges 
compete with each other for listings, trades, and market data itself, 
providing virtually limitless opportunities for entrepreneurs who wish 
to produce and distribute their own market data. This proprietary data 
is produced by each individual exchange, as well as other entities, in 
a vigorously competitive market.
    Broker-dealers currently have numerous alternative venues for their 
order flow, including numerous self-regulatory organization (``SRO'') 
markets, as well as internalizing broker-dealers (``BDs'') and various 
forms of alternative trading systems (``ATSs''), including dark pools 
and electronic communication networks (``ECNs''). Each SRO market 
competes to produce transaction reports via trade executions, and two 
FINRA-regulated Trade Reporting Facilities (``TRFs'') compete to 
attract internalized transaction reports. Competitive markets for order 
flow, executions, and transaction reports provide pricing discipline 
for the inputs of proprietary data products. The large number of SROs, 
TRFs, BDs, and ATSs that currently produce proprietary data or are 
currently capable of producing it provides further pricing discipline 
for proprietary data products. Each SRO, TRF, ATS, and BD is currently 
permitted to produce proprietary data products, and many currently do.
    Any ATS or BD can combine with any other ATS, BD, or multiple ATSs 
or BDs to produce joint proprietary data products. Additionally, order 
routers and market data vendors can facilitate single or multiple 
broker-dealers' production of proprietary data products. The potential 
sources of proprietary products are virtually limitless.
    The fact that proprietary data from ATSs, BDs, and vendors can by-
pass SROs is significant in two respects. First, non-SROs can compete 
directly with SROs for the production and sale of proprietary data 
products, as BATS and Arca did before registering as exchanges by 
publishing proprietary book data on the Internet. Second, because a 
single order or transaction report can appear in an SRO proprietary 
product, a non-SRO proprietary product, or both, the data available in 
proprietary products is exponentially greater than the actual number of 
orders and transaction reports that exist in the marketplace. Market 
data vendors provide another form of price discipline for proprietary 
data products because they control the primary means of access to end 
users. Vendors impose price restraints based upon their business 
models. For example, vendors such as Bloomberg and Reuters that assess 
a surcharge on data they sell may refuse to offer proprietary products 
that end users will not purchase in sufficient numbers. Internet 
portals, such as Google, impose a discipline by providing only data 
that will enable them to attract ``eyeballs'' that contribute to their 
advertising revenue. Retail broker-dealers, such as Schwab and 
Fidelity, offer their customers proprietary data only if it promotes 
trading and generates sufficient commission revenue. Although the 
business models may differ, these vendors' pricing discipline is the 
same: They can simply refuse to purchase any proprietary data product 
that fails to provide sufficient value. The Exchange and other 
producers of proprietary data products must understand and respond to 
these varying business models and pricing disciplines in order to 
market proprietary data products successfully.
