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

January 14, 2026.
    Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 
(``Act''),\1\ and Rule 19b-4 thereunder,\2\ notice is hereby given that 
on January 2, 2026, 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, II, 
and III 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.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \2\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

    The Exchange proposes to amend its Price List to delete pricing 
that is no longer in effect. The proposed rule change is available on 
the Exchange's website at <a href="http://www.nyse.com">www.nyse.com</a> and at the principal office of 
the Exchange.

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 the 
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change

1. Purpose
    The Exchange proposes to amend its Price List to delete Gross FOCUS 
fee related pricing that is no longer in effect.
    The Exchange proposes to implement the fee changes effective 
January 2, 2026.
Background and Proposed Rule Change
    In September 2025, the Exchange waived the Gross FOCUS Fee from 
September 2, 2025, through December 31, 2025, in order to help ensure 
that the amounts collected from the Gross FOCUS Fee, in combination 
with other regulatory fees and fines, did not exceed the Exchange's 
total projected Regulatory Costs.\3\ The Exchange added text to the 
Price List describing the waiver and providing that the Exchange would 
assessing the monthly fee of $0.11 fee per $1,000 of gross revenue 
reported on its FOCUS Report as of January 1, 2026. The Exchange 
proposes to delete this text as obsolete.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 103971 (September 
15, 2025), 90 FR 45064 (September 18, 2025) (SR-NYSE-2025-35).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange believes the proposed change would improve the clarity 
of Price List by removing obsolete text,

[[Page 2401]]

thereby obviating potential confusion regarding pricing currently in 
effect.
    The proposed change is not otherwise intended to address other 
issues, and the Exchange is not aware of any significant problems that 
market participants would have in complying with the proposed changes.
2. Statutory Basis
    The Exchange believes that the proposed rule change is consistent 
with Section 6(b) of the Act,\4\ in general, and furthers the 
objectives of Sections 6(b)(4) and (5) of the Act,\5\ in particular, 
because it provides for the equitable allocation of reasonable dues, 
fees, and other charges among its members, issuers and other persons 
using its facilities and does not unfairly discriminate between 
customers, issuers, brokers or dealers.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b).
    \5\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(4) & (5).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Proposed Change Is Reasonable
    The Exchange believes the proposed elimination of text in the Price 
List describing pricing that is no longer applicable to any member 
organizations is reasonable because it would improve the clarity of the 
Price List and reduce confusion as to which fees and credits are 
applicable on the Exchange. The Exchange believes that amending the 
Price List to remove obsolete pricing would further the protection of 
investors and the public interest by promoting clarity and transparency 
in the Price List and making the Price List easier to navigate and 
understand.
The Proposal Is an Equitable Allocation of Fees
    The Exchange believes the proposed change supports an equitable 
allocation of fees and credits among its market participants because it 
would eliminate obsolete text from the Price List describing pricing 
programs that are no longer applicable to any market participants. 
Accordingly, the Exchange believes the proposal would impact all 
similarly situated member organizations on an equal basis. The Exchange 
also believes that the proposed change would promote investor 
protection and the public interest because the deletion of expired 
pricing programs from the Price List would enhance the clarity of the 
Price List and reduce confusion regarding fees and credits currently 
applicable to market participants who transact on the Exchange.
The Proposal Is Not Unfairly Discriminatory
    The Exchange believes that the proposal is not unfairly 
discriminatory because it neither targets nor will it have a disparate 
impact on any category of market participant. The proposed elimination 
of obsolete pricing would affect all market participants on an equal 
and non-discriminatory basis, as the programs with which such pricing 
is associated are no longer available to any market participants. The 
Exchange also believes that the proposed change would protect investors 
and the public interest because the deletion of expired waiver language 
would facilitate market participants' understanding of the pricing 
currently applicable on the Exchange.
    For the foregoing reasons, the Exchange believes that the proposal 
is consistent with the Act.

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

    In accordance with Section 6(b)(8) of the Act,\6\ the Exchange 
believes that the proposed rule change would not impose any burden on 
competition that is not necessary or appropriate in furtherance of the 
purposes of the Act. Instead, as discussed above, the proposed change 
relates solely to the elimination of obsolete pricing associated with 
expired pricing and, accordingly, would not have any impact on 
intramarket or intermarket competition. The proposed change is designed 
to ensure that the Price List accurately reflects pricing currently 
effective on the Exchange, thereby adding clarity to the Price List to 
the benefit of all market participants.

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

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

    Pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A)(ii) of the Act,\7\ and Rule 19b-
4(f)(2) thereunder \8\ the Exchange has designated this proposal as 
establishing or changing a due, fee, or other charge imposed on any 
person, whether or not the person is a member of the self-regulatory 
organization, which renders the proposed rule change effective upon 
filing. 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.
