2013-24640. Self-Regulatory Organizations; NASDAQ OMX PHLX LLC; Notice of Filing and Immediate Effectiveness of Proposed Rule Change To Amend the Table of Contents of the Pricing Schedule

October 8, 2013.

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 September 27, 2013, NASDAQ OMX PHLX LLC (“Phlx” or “Exchange”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC” or “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 the Substance of the Proposed Rule Change

The Exchange proposes to amend the Table of Contents to its Pricing Schedule to refer to FLEX ^[3] transaction fees which were inadvertently not added to the Table of Contents at the time the fees were adopted.

The text of the proposed rule change is available on the Exchange's Web site at http://nasdaqomxphlx.cchwallstreet.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

The purpose of the proposed rule change is to amend the Table of Contents to include a reference to FLEX transaction fees within the Pricing Schedule. The Exchange adopted new FLEX transaction fee pricing in Section IV, entitled “Other Transaction Fees,” Part B of the Pricing Schedule in a previous rule change and inadvertently did not amend the Table of Contents to reflect the addition of that pricing to Section IV.^[4] The Exchange proposes to amend the Table of Contents to add the words “FLEX Transaction Fees” and also reletter Section IV, Part B, entitled “Cancellation Fees,” and Part C, entitled “Options Regulatory Fee,” as Parts C and D, respectively.

The Table of Contents allows members to readily locate pricing within the Pricing Schedule. The Pricing Schedule is located on the Exchange's Web page.^[5] The Table of Contents contains hyperlinks which allow users to readily access the various portions of the Pricing Schedule with ease. By adding the words “FLEX Transaction Fees” to the Table of Contents, users will be able to click on this topic in the Table of Contents and be taken to that portion of the Pricing Schedule. The Exchange is not proposing any substantive amendments, but rather proposes to merely amend the contents of the Table of Contents.

2. Statutory Basis

The Exchange believes that its proposal is consistent with Section 6(b) of the Act ^[6] in general, and furthers the objectives of Section 6(b)(5) of the Act ^[7] in particular, in that it is designed to promote just and equitable principles of trade, to remove impediments to and perfect the mechanism of a free and open market and a national market system, and, in general to protect investors and the public interest, by providing market participants an easy format to readily locate FLEX transaction fees, which may be applicable to them. The Exchange believes that correcting the Table of Contents provides greater clarity to the Pricing Schedule as well as any easy means to access the FLEX transaction fees.

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 as the amendment is non-substantive and merely serves to add a reference to the Table of Contents which was inadvertently not amended in a prior rule change.

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

Pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A) of the Act ^[8] and Rule 19b-4(f)(3) ^[9] thereunder, the Exchange has designated this proposal as one that is concerned solely with the administration of the self-regulatory organization, and therefore has become effective.

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 shall institute proceedings to determine whether the proposed rule should be approved or disapproved.
