All fee disputes must be submitted no later than sixty (60) days afterreceipt of a billing invoice.1Base rate on rights fee will be allocated to Specialists, e-Specialists and DOMM’s based on their prorated share ofcontract volume on the Exchange in each issue. This fee is in addition to the Market Maker Fee and will be billedon a per issue basis to the ATP Firm acting as Specialist, e-Specialist, or Directed Market Maker in the issue.Average National Daily Customer Contracts Per Issue is calculated based on public customer contracts traded usinga rolling three month basis with a one month lag. Professional Customer orders will be treated as Customer ordersfor purposes of this calculation. Where the Specialist, the e-Specialist, or DOMMs transact zero volume in a month,the Exchange splits the Rights Fee equally among the Specialist and e-Specialist, such that each Specialist and eSpecialist participant is liable for 50% of the Rights Fee. In the event that there is only a Specialist or e-Specialistand there are no DOMM volumes, then that sole Specialist or e-Specialist incurs 100% of the Rights Fee applicableto the option issue. In calculating the Rights Fee, each Mini contract traded will count the same as one standardcontract that has traded.2Reserved.3Reserved.4Reserved.5Specialist, eSpecialist, and Market Maker (both Directed and non-Directed) fees will be aggregated and capped at 350,000 per month plus an incremental service fee of .01 per contract for all Specialist, eSpecialist and MarketMaker volume executed in excess of 3,500,000 contracts per month, except for the execution of an ElectronicComplex Order, in which case the incremental service fee is .10. Any fees or volume associated with a StrategyTrade (reversals and conversions, box spreads, short stock interest spreads, merger spreads, and jelly rolls) and Minioption volumes will not be counted towards either the 350,000 cap, or the volume threshold of 3,500,000 contracts.Royalty Fees will continue to be charged and do not count toward the 350,000 fee cap. Specialist, eSpecialist, andMarket Maker (both Directed and non-Directed) participants that execute 50,000 or more contracts ADV each dayduring the month, excluding Mini option volume, will be eligible for the lower per contract rate described in the feeschedule under the section on “NYSE Amex Options: Trade-Related Charges.” In calculating this threshold of50,000 or more contracts, the Exchange will exclude both Strategy Trades and QCC trades. Mini option contractsare subject to separate pricing and are not eligible for inclusion in the 350,000 per month fee cap described above.Volume and fees resulting from participation in a CUBE Auction will not count towards the 50,000 ADV threshold,the 350,000 per month cap or the 3,500,000 contract threshold described above.6Firm Proprietary manual trades are those trades executed in open outcry on behalf of an ATP holder that clear inthe firm range. The Firm Facilitation Manual rate applies to trades that are executed in open outcry, that clear in thefirm range (clearance account "F") with a customer on the contra (clearance account "C") with the same clearingfirm symbol on both sides of the trade. Fees for Firm Proprietary manual trades will be aggregated and capped at 100,000 per month for member firms plus an incremental service fee of .01 per contract for all Firm Proprietarymanual trading volume in excess of the cap, except for the execution of a QCC order, in which case there is noincremental service fee. Any fee or volume associated with a Strategy Execution (reversal and conversion, boxspread, short stock interest spread, merger spread and jelly roll) will not be counted toward the 100,000 cap.Royalty fees will continue to be charged at the rate provided herein and do not count toward the 100,000 fee cap.Firm Facilitation Manual trades will continue to be executed at the rate of 0.00 per contract regardless of whether afirm has reached the 100,000 cap or not, except for QCC volume in excess of the cap as noted above.

105 of 1387Assessed on all non-customer orders, for both Mini and standard option contracts, routed to away markets and onCustomer orders, for both Mini and standard option contracts, including Professional Customer orders, for both Miniand standard option contracts that are charged transaction fees at another exchange. If the executing exchange doesnot charge a transaction fee for the execution of the Customer order, the Routing Surcharge will be waived. TheRouting Surcharge will be made up of 0.11 per contract plus (i) any transaction fees assessed by the awayexchange(s) (calculated on an order-by-order basis since different away exchanges charge different amounts) or (ii)if the actual transaction fees assessed by the away exchange(s) cannot be determined prior to the execution, thehighest per contract charge assessed by the away exchange(s) for the relevant option class and type of marketparticipant (e.g., Customer, Firm, Broker/Dealer, Professional Customer or Market Maker). The Routing Surchargeis in addition to NYSE Amex’s customary execution fees applicable to the order.8(a) Reversals and Conversions. A “reversal” is established by combining a short security position with a short putand a long call position that shares the same strike and expiration. A “conversion” is established by combining along position in the underlying security with a long put and a short call position that shares the same strike andexpiration.(b) Box spread. A “box spread” is defined as transactions involving a long call option and a short put option at onestrike, combined with a short call option and long put at a different strike, to create synthetic long and syntheticshort stock positions, respectively.(c) Short stock interest spread. A “short stock interest spread" is defined as transactions done to achieve a shortstock interest arbitrage involving the purchase, sale and exercise of in-the–money options of the same class.(d) Merger spread. A “merger spread” is defined as transactions done to achieve a merger arbitrage involving thepurchase, sale and exercise of options of the same class and expiration date, each executed prior to the date on whichshareholders of record are required to elect their respective form of consideration, i.e., cash or stock.(e) Jelly rolls. A “jelly roll” is created by entering into two separate positions simultaneously. One position involvesbuying a put and selling a call with the same strike price and expiration. The second position involves selling a putand buying a call, with the same strike price, but with a different expiration from the first position.9Marketing charges are collected on electronic public customer orders, for both Mini and standard option contracts,from market makers who trade with that order. Broker Dealer and Professional Customer electronic orders thattrade contra to a market maker will not result in the collection of marketing charges. Executed QCC orders andCUBE Orders will not result in the collection of marketing charges.10This footnote applies only to marketing charges. The pool of monies resulting from the collection of marketingcharges on electronic non-Directed Order flow, for both Mini and standard option contracts, will be controlled bythe Specialist or the e-Specialist with superior volume performance over the previous quarter, unless otherwisedesignated, as described below, for distribution by the Exchange at the direction of such Specialist or e-Specialist toeligible payment accepting firms. In making this determination the Exchange will, on a class by class basis,evaluate Specialist and e-Specialist performance based on the number of electronic contracts executed at NYSEAmex per class.
