Emergency Approval Notice

market participants from whom ISE
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
orders it depends for competitive
survival.
Second, the Exchange is constrained
in pricing the ISE Order Feed by the
availability to market participants of
alternatives to purchasing ISE’s market
data offerings. ISE must consider the
extent to which market participants
would choose one or more alternatives
instead of purchasing the exchange’s
data. Other exchanges, including some
who may enjoy greater market share
than ISE, are potential competitors as
they too sell similar market data
offerings that market participants may
choose to purchase instead. For
example, NASDAQ OMX PHLX
(‘‘PHLX’’) has filed a proposed rule
change to adopt fees for a market data
product that includes a data feed that is
similar to the ISE Order Feed.13 The
PHLX’ Specialized Order Feed, which
PHLX has proposed to integrate into its
TOPO Plus Orders market data offering,
includes ‘‘real-time information to keep
track of single order book(s).’’ 14 Further,
the NetCoalition Order notes that one of
the principal market data reforms
adopted by the Commission was to
authorize the independent distribution
of data by broker/dealers. If one or more
broker/dealers determine that the cost of
subscribing to the ISE Order Feed is too
high, they are entitled to independently
distribute their own order data and may
do so with or without charging a fee.15
In the aftermath of the NetCoalition
Order, the Exchange believes that the
competition among exchanges for order
flow and the competition among
exchanges for market data products
subject ISE’s proposed market data
offerings to significant competitive
forces. In addition, the Exchange
believes that no substantial
countervailing basis exists to support a
finding that the proposed fees fail to
meet the requirement of the Act. In sum,
the availability of alternative sources of
information impose significant
competitive pressures on the ISE Order
Feed and ISE’s compelling need to
attract order flow impose significant

competitive pressure on the Exchange to
act equitably, fairly, and reasonably in
setting its fees.
B. Self-Regulatory Organization’s

is not necessary or appropriate in
furtherance of the purposes of the Act.
