(‘‘Commission’’), pursuant to Section
19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act

 Federal Register / Vol. 71, No. 157 / Tuesday, August 15, 2006 / Notices
2006, the Exchange filed Amendment
No. 1 to the proposed rule change.3 The
proposed rule change, as modified by
Amendment No. 1, was published for
comment in the Federal Register on July
10, 2006.4 The Commission received no
comments on the proposal. This order
approves the proposed rule change, as
amended.
The Exchange proposes to amend its
Schedule of Fees to increase the Linkage
Inbound Principal Order fee from $.15
per contract to $.24 per contract. This
proposed rule change will remain in
effect as part of an existing pilot
program, which is scheduled to expire
on July 31, 2007.5
The Commission has reviewed
carefully the proposed rule change as
amended and finds that it is consistent
with the requirements of the Act and the
rules and regulations thereunder
applicable to a national securities
exchange.6 In particular, the
Commission finds that the proposed
rule change is consistent with Section
6(b)(4) of the Act,7 which requires that
an exchange have an equitable
allocation of reasonable dues, fees and
other charges among its members and
other persons using its facilities. The
Commission notes that the proposed fee
is similar to the one established by the
Philadelphia Stock Exchange, Inc.
earlier this year.8
It is therefore ordered, pursuant to
section 19(b)(2) of the Act,9 that the
proposed rule change (SR–ISE–2006–30)
as amended be, and hereby is approved.
For the Commission, by the Division of
Market Regulation, pursuant to delegated
authority.10

Notice of Filing of Proposed Rule
Change Relating to the Adoption of
Rules To Govern its Electronic Trading
System for Equities
August 8, 2006.
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 August 4,
2006, the International Securities
Exchange, Inc. (‘‘ISE’’ or ‘‘Exchange’’)
filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (‘‘Commission’’) the
proposed rule change as described in
Items I, II, and III below, which Items
have been prepared by the Exchange.
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 ISE proposes to adopt rules and
amend existing ISE rules to govern its
new electronic trading system for
equities, the ISE Stock Exchange, LLC
(‘‘ISE Stock Exchange’’), which will be
an equity exchange facility of the ISE. In
addition, the ISE proposes to apply
certain of its options rules to the trading
of equity securities on the ISE Stock
Exchange. The proposed rules address
the electronic trading of equities under
Regulation NMS under the Act, and the
rules and regulations thereunder. The
text of the proposed rules is available on
the Commission’s Web site at http://
www.sec.gov (under Self-Regulatory
Organization Rulemaking and National
Market System Plans), on the ISE Web
site at http://www.iseoptions.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
Background. The Exchange is
proposing to adopt a series of rules in
connection with its ISE Stock Exchange.
The ISE Stock Exchange consists of a
new electronic trading system
developed to trade equities (‘‘System’’),
which will be a facility of the ISE. The
System will provide for the electronic
execution and display of orders as well
as a midpoint matching system. The
class of members who will be eligible to
trade on the ISE Stock Exchange are
electronic access members (‘‘EAMs’’)
that the ISE specifically authorizes to
trade in the System (‘‘Equity EAMs’’).
Orders will be ranked in price-time
priority regardless of the identity of the
entering Equity EAM. Executions on the
ISE Stock Exchange will take place
automatically and immediately upon
order entry if trading interest is
available. The System will provide a
routing service for orders when trading
interest is not present on the ISE Stock
Exchange. The ISE Stock Exchange will
not have any market makers, only
Equity EAMs who will provide liquidity
to the Exchange. The ISE Stock
Exchange will be an order-driven
marketplace. There will be no market
makers that are required to provide
quotes.
The proposed rules incorporate the
trade-through rule of Regulation NMS 3
by requiring that, for any execution to
occur on the Exchange during regular
trading hours,4 the price must be equal
to, or better than, any ‘‘protected
quotation’’ within the meaning of
Regulation NMS (‘‘Protected Bid or
Protected Offer’’), unless an exception to
Rule 611 of Regulation NMS is
available.5 ISE Stock Exchange proposes
to direct to away markets for execution
all or a portion of the orders that cannot
be executed at the Protected Bid or
Protected Offer on the Exchange.6
The Exchange previously filed with
the Commission pursuant to Rule 19b–
5 under the Act a Form PILOT to
3 17 CFR 242.611.
4 The hours of business during which transactions
may be made on the ISE Stock Exchange are set
forth in proposed ISE Rule 2102 and are referred to
herein as ‘‘regular trading hours.’’
5 See proposed ISE Rule 2107(c).
6 See proposed ISE Rule 2107(d).
