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
MRX proposes to increase its ORF from $0.0004 to $0.0010 per
contract
[[Page 20540]]
side effective May 1, 2025. The increased ORF rate will sunset on
December 31, 2025 and will revert to $0.0004 per contract side.
Additionally, the Exchange proposes to discontinue the ORF model
scheduled to be implemented in June 2025.\4\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\4\ Id.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Background on Current ORF
Today, MRX assesses its ORF for each Customer \5\ option
transaction that is either: (1) executed by a Member \6\ on MRX; or (2)
cleared by an MRX Member at OCC in the Customer range,\7\ even if the
transaction was executed by a non-Member of MRX, regardless of the
exchange on which the transaction occurs.\8\ If the OCC clearing member
is an MRX Member, ORF is assessed and collected on all ultimately
cleared Customer contracts (after adjustment for CMTA \9\); and (2) if
the OCC clearing member is not an MRX Member, ORF is collected only on
the cleared Customer contracts executed at MRX, taking into account any
CMTA instructions which may result in collecting the ORF from a non-
Member.\10\ The current MRX ORF is $0.0004 per contract side.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\5\ Today, ORF is collected from Customers, Professionals and
broker-dealers that are not affiliated with a clearing member that
clear in the ``C'' range at OCC.
\6\ The term ``Member'' means an organization that has been
approved to exercise trading rights associated with Exchange Rights.
See General 1, Section 1(a)(14).
\7\ Market participants must record the appropriate account
origin code on all orders at the time of entry of the order. The
Exchange represents that it has surveillances in place to verify
that members mark orders with the correct account origin code.
\8\ The Exchange uses reports from OCC when assessing and
collecting the ORF.
\9\ CMTA or Clearing Member Trade Assignment is a form of
``give-up'' whereby the position will be assigned to a specific
clearing firm at OCC.
\10\ By way of example, if Broker A, an MRX Member, routes a
Customer order to CBOE and the transaction executes on CBOE and
clears in Broker A's OCC Clearing account, ORF will be collected by
MRX from Broker A's clearing account at OCC via direct debit. While
this transaction was executed on a market other than MRX, it was
cleared by an MRX Member in the member's OCC clearing account in the
Customer range, therefore there is a regulatory nexus between MRX
and the transaction. If Broker A was not an MRX Member, then no ORF
should be assessed and collected because there is no nexus; the
transaction did not execute on MRX nor was it cleared by an MRX
Member.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Today, in the case where a Member both executes a transaction and
clears the transaction, the ORF will be assessed to and collected from
that Member. Today, in the case where a Member executes a transaction
and a different Member clears the transaction, the ORF will be assessed
to and collected from the Member who clears the transaction and not the
Member who executes the transaction. Today, in the case where a non-
Member executes a transaction at an away market and a Member clears the
transaction, the ORF will be assessed to and collected from the Member
who clears the transaction. Today, in the case where a Member executes
a transaction on MRX and a non-Member clears the transaction, the ORF
will be assessed to the Member that executed the transaction on MRX and
collected from the non-Member who cleared the transaction. Today, in
the case where a Member executes a transaction at an away market and a
non-Member ultimately clears the transaction, the ORF will not be
assessed to the Member who executed the transaction or collected from
the non-Member who cleared the transaction because the Exchange does
not have access to the data to make absolutely certain that ORF should
apply. Further, the data does not allow the Exchange to identify the
Member executing the trade at an away market.
ORF Revenue and Monitoring of ORF
Today, the Exchange monitors the amount of revenue collected from
the ORF (``ORF Regulatory Revenue'') to ensure that it, in combination
with other regulatory fees and fines, does not exceed Options
Regulatory Costs.\11\ In determining whether an expense is considered
an Options Regulatory Cost, the Exchange reviews all costs and makes
determinations if there is a nexus between the expense and a regulatory
function. The Exchange notes that fines collected by the Exchange in
connection with a disciplinary matter offset Options Regulatory Cost.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\11\ The regulatory costs for options comprise a subset of the
Exchange's regulatory budget that is specifically related to options
regulatory expenses and encompasses the cost to regulate all
Members' options activity (``Options Regulatory Cost'').
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
ORF Regulatory Revenue, when combined with all of the Exchange's
other regulatory fees and fines, is designed to recover the Options
Regulatory Costs to the Exchange of the supervision and regulation of
member Customer options business including performing routine
surveillances, investigations, examinations, financial monitoring, and
policy, rulemaking, interpretive, and enforcement activities. Options
Regulatory Costs include direct regulatory expenses and certain
indirect expenses in support of the regulatory function. The direct
expenses include in-house and third-party service provider costs to
support the day-to-day regulatory work such as surveillances,
investigations and examinations. The indirect expenses are only those
expenses that are in support of the regulatory functions, such areas
include Office of the General Counsel, technology, finance, and
internal audit. Indirect expenses will not exceed 35% of the total
Options Regulatory Costs, in which case direct expenses could be 65% or
more of total Options Regulatory Costs.\12\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\12\ Direct and indirect expenses are based on the Exchange's
2025 Regulatory Budget.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Proposal for May 1, 2025
At this time, the Exchange proposes to increase MRX's ORF from
$0.0004 to $0.0010 per contract side effective May 1, 2025. For several
years, MRX has not been collecting ORF Regulatory Revenue at levels
that cover a material portion of its Options Regulatory Cost. By way of
background, initially MRX did not adopt an ORF as a new options market.
Despite the fact that MRX was operating its options market since 2016,
it did not establish an ORF until February 1, 2019. The initial ORF
rate was set at $0.0004 per contract side and has remined the same to
date. In 2024, MRX proposed to revamp the current process of assessing
and collecting its ORF \13\ along with other Nasdaq affiliated
exchanges in an attempt to reform ORF. MRX's current ORF rate has been
in effect for over 6 years. The Exchange notified Members of the
proposed adjustment to the ORF through an Options Trader Alert.\14\ For
several years MRX has been under collecting ORF and proposes to
temporarily increase the amount of ORF that will be collected by the
Exchange from $0.0004 to $0.0010 per contract side. The Exchange
proposes the ORF of $0.0010 per contract side to have an automatic
sunset on December 31, 2025. The proposed increase is based on the
Exchange's estimated projections for of its Options Regulatory Cost as
well as the projected ORF Regulatory Revenue, when combined with all of
the Exchange's other regulatory fees and fines. The Exchange will
continue to monitor the amount of ORF Regulatory Revenue collected from
the ORF to ensure that ORF Regulatory Revenue, in combination with its
other regulatory fees and fines, does not exceed Options Regulatory
Costs. If the Exchange determines that to be the case, the
[[Page 20541]]
Exchange will adjust the ORF by submitting a fee change filing to the
Commission and notifying \15\ its Members via an Options Trader
Alert.\16\

LLC; Notice of Filing and Immediate Effectiveness of a Proposed Rule

(ORF) and ORF Methodology Proposed in SR-MRX-2024-45) (Collectively
``June 2025 ORF'').
\14\ See Options Trader Alert #2025--17.
\15\ The Exchange will provide Members with such notice at least
30 calendar days prior to the effective date of the change.
\16\ The Exchange notes that in connection with this proposal,
it provided the Commission confidential details regarding the
Exchange's projected regulatory revenue, including projected revenue
from ORF, along with a projected regulatory expense.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Future Proposals
MRX previously filed a proposed amendment to its ORF, effective as
of January 1, 2025,\17\ to amend its methodology of collection to: (1)
exclude options transactions in proprietary products; and (2) assess
ORF in all clearing ranges except market makers who clear as ``M'' at
OCC. Additionally, MRX proposed to assess a different rate for trades
executed on MRX (``Local ORF Rate'') and trades executed on non-MRX
exchanges (``Away ORF Rate'').\18\ The Exchange also filed to delay the
implementation of SR-MRX-2024-45, with respect to the new ORF and
methodology therein which was effective on January 1, 2025, so that it
would now be implemented on June 1, 2025.\19\ At this time, the
Exchange proposes to discontinue its June 2025 ORF.\20\ The Exchange
received feedback from the Members \21\ and SIFMA \22\ related to the
implementation of its June 2025 ORF. In particular, two fields
necessary for information sharing of executing exchange information
among Members and Clearing Members will not be available after an
upcoming technology migration at OCC.\23\ In light of this information,
the Exchange has been re-evaluating its ORF model and plans to revamp
the current process of assessing and collecting ORF, which would be
subject to, and described further in, a future rule filing.
Particularly, the Exchange is exploring proposing a modified ORF model
in which ORF would only be assessed to on-exchange transactions and
would continue to be assessed only to customers. At this this time, the
Exchange expects to continue assessing ORF as it does today and will
continue to ensure that ORF Regulatory Revenue, in combination with its
other regulatory fees and fines, does not exceed Options Regulatory
Cost.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
To create real ORF reform, moving to a new ORF model that only
assesses a fee to transactions that occur on the Exchange would remove
any duplicative ORF billing. The Exchange believes that each exchange
should likewise adopt a similar model to ensure consistent industry
billing of ORF to the benefit of market participants. A consistent
methodology of assessing and collecting ORF will also remove confusion
and complexity in the billing of ORF. The Exchange has been engaged in
remodeling its current ORF over the last year and has held many
conversations with market participants to establish a framework that is
practical and fair. The Exchange remains committed to ORF reform and
will continue to evaluate its ORF model and seek feedback from market
participants. Until such time as the new ORF model is in place, the
Exchange believes that it is fair and reasonable to temporarily raise
the current rate under the existing ORF model to allow MRX to increase
its current collection to offset Options Regulatory Costs to maintain
its regulatory budget
In light of the Exchange's anticipated proposal to revamp ORF, the
Exchange also proposes to adopt a sunset date of December 31, 2025 for
the current proposed rate of $0.0010 per contract side, at which point
the Exchange would revert back to current ORF rate of $0.0004 per
contract side. The proposed sunset date will provide time for the
Exchange to discuss its anticipated, or potential alternative, ORF
model with market participants towards establishment of one new,
unified model going forward. The Exchange will endeavor however to
implement the modified ORF structure noted above prior to the proposed
December 31, 2025 sunset date (i.e., the existence of the sunset date
of December 31, 2025 for the proposed ORF rate would not preclude the
Exchange from filing to modify its ORF methodology and rate prior to
that date).
2. Statutory Basis
The Exchange believes the proposed rule change is consistent with
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the ``Act'') and the rules and
regulations thereunder applicable to the Exchange and, in particular,
the requirements of Section 6(b) of the Act.\24\ Specifically, the
Exchange believes the proposed rule change is consistent with Section
6(b)(4) of the Act,\25\ which provides that Exchange rules may provide
for the equitable allocation of reasonable dues, fees, and other
charges among its members, and other persons using its facilities.
Additionally, the Exchange believes the proposed rule change is
consistent with the Section 6(b)(5) \26\ requirement that the rules of
an exchange not be designed to permit unfair discrimination between
customers, issuers, brokers, or dealers.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\24\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b).
\25\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(4).
\26\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Exchange believes the proposed pricing change is reasonable
because it would help ensure that ORF Regulatory Revenue, in
combination with other regulatory fees and fines, would help offset,
but not exceed, Options Regulatory Cost. As discussed, the Exchange has
designed the ORF to generate ORF Regulatory Revenue that would be less
than Options Regulatory Cost, which is consistent with the practice
across the options industry and the view of the Commission that
regulatory fees be used for regulatory purposes and not to support the
Exchange's business side. The Exchange has determined to increase its
ORF because it has been under collecting for a few years. Initially,
MRX did not adopt an ORF as a new market in 2016. MRX adopted its ORF
on February 1, 2019 at a rate of $0.0004 per contract side. Thereafter,
the Exchange did not amend its ORF until 2024 when it proposed to
revamp the current process of assessing and collecting ORF.\27\ Today,
MRX's ORF remains at the 2019 rate. The proposed increase is reasonable
as it would offset the anticipated Options Regulatory Cost in line with
other options exchanges that are collecting at a higher rate and some
new options markets which collected ORF from the first day of trading,
while still not exceeding a material portion of Options Regulatory
Cost. As noted above, the Exchange will also continue to monitor on a
monthly basis so that ORF Regulatory Revenue, in combination with its
other regulatory fees and fines, does not exceed Options
[[Page 20542]]
Regulatory Cost. If the Exchange determines ORF Regulatory Revenue
would exceed a material portion of Options Regulatory Cost, the
Exchange will reduce the ORF by submitting a pricing change filing to
the Commission.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\27\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 101891 (December
12, 2024), 89 FR 103017 (December 18, 2024) (SR-MRX-2024-45) (Notice
of Filing and Immediate Effectiveness of Proposed Rule Change To
Adopt a New Approach to the Options Regulatory Fee (ORF) in 2025).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Exchange also believes the proposed fee change is equitable and
not unfairly discriminatory in that it is charged to all Members on all
their transactions that clear in the customer range at the OCC. The
Exchange believes the ORF ensures fairness by assessing higher fees to
those Members that require more Exchange regulatory services based on
the amount of customer options business they conduct. Regulating
customer trading activity is much more labor intensive and requires
greater expenditure of human and technical resources than regulating
non-customer trading activity, which tends to be more automated and
less labor-intensive. For example, there are costs associated with main
office and branch office examinations (e.g., staff and travel
expenses), as well as investigations into customer complaints and the
terminations of registered persons. As a result, the costs associated
with administering the customer component of the Exchange's overall
regulatory program are materially higher than the costs associated with
administering the non-customer component (e.g., proprietary
transactions) of its regulatory program. Moreover, the Exchange notes
that it has broad regulatory responsibilities with respect to its
Members' activities, irrespective of where their transactions take
place. Many of the Exchange's surveillance programs for customer
trading activity may require the Exchange to look at activity across
all markets, such as reviews related to position limit violations and
manipulation. Indeed, the Exchange cannot effectively review for such
conduct without looking at and evaluating activity regardless of where
it transpires. In addition to its own surveillance programs, the
Exchange also works with other exchanges on intermarket surveillance
related issues. Through its participation in the Intermarket
Surveillance Group (``ISG'') \28\ the Exchange shares information and
coordinates inquiries and investigations with other exchanges designed
to address potential intermarket manipulation and trading abuses.
Accordingly, there is a strong nexus between the ORF and the Exchange's
regulatory activities with respect to its Members' customer trading
activity.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\28\ ISG is an industry organization formed in 1983 to
coordinate intermarket surveillance among the self-regulatory
organizations by cooperatively sharing regulatory information
pursuant to a written agreement between the parties. The goal of the
ISG's information sharing is to coordinate regulatory efforts to
address potential intermarket trading abuses and manipulations.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Exchange's proposal to discontinue its June 2025 ORF is
reasonable because it has come to light that certain information
necessary for billing of ORF would not be available later in 2025. In
light of this information, the Exchange has been re-evaluating its ORF
model and plans to revamp the current process of assessing and
collecting ORF, which would be subject to, and described further in, a
future rule filing. Particularly, the Exchange anticipates moving to a
modified ORF model in which ORF would only be assessed to on-exchange
transactions and would continue to be assessed only to customers. At
this this time, the Exchange expects to continue assessing ORF as it
does today and will continue to ensure that ORF Regulatory Revenue, in
combination with its other regulatory fees and fines, does not exceed
Options Regulatory Cost. Until such time as the new ORF model is in
place, the Exchange believes that it is fair and reasonable to
temporarily raise the current rate under the existing ORF model to
allow MRX to increase its current collection to offset Options
Regulatory Costs to maintain its regulatory budget.
The Exchange's proposal to discontinue its June 2025 ORF is
equitable and not unfairly discriminatory as the proposal would not
apply to any Member.
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 not necessary or appropriate in
furtherance of the purposes of the Act. This proposal does not create
an unnecessary or inappropriate intra-market burden on competition
because ORF applies to all customer activity, thereby raising ORF
Regulatory Revenue to offset Options Regulatory Cost. It also
supplements the regulatory revenue derived from non-customer activity.
The Exchange notes, however, the proposed change is not designed to
address any competitive issues. Indeed, this proposal does not create
an unnecessary or inappropriate inter-market burden on competition
because it is a regulatory fee that supports regulation in furtherance
of the purposes of the Act. The Exchange is obligated to ensure that
the amount of ORF Regulatory Revenue collected from the ORF, in
combination with its other regulatory fees and fines, does not exceed
Options Regulatory Cost.
Further, no Member would be subject to the June 2025 ORF as a
result of this proposal.
C. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Comments on the Proposed
Rule Change Received From Members, Participants, or Others
No written comments were either solicited or received.
III. Date of Effectiveness of the Proposed Rule Change and Timing for
Commission Action
The foregoing rule change has become effective pursuant to Section
19(b)(3)(A) of the Act \29\ and paragraph (f)(2) of Rule 19b-4 \30\
thereunder.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\29\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A).
\30\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(2).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
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. If the Commission
takes such action, the Commission will institute proceedings to
determine whether the proposed rule change should be approved or
disapproved.
