2014-11441. Self-Regulatory Organizations; ISE Gemini, LLC; Notice of Filing and Immediate Effectiveness of Proposed Rule Change To Amend the Schedule of Fees

May 13, 2014.

Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Act”),^[1] and Rule 19b-4 thereunder,^[2] notice is hereby given that on May 1, 2014 ISE Gemini, LLC (the “Exchange” or “ISE Gemini”) filed with the Securities and Exchange 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.

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

ISE Gemini is proposing to amend the Schedule of Fees to update the definition of Mini Option to reflect the recent Google stock split. The text of the proposed rule change is available on the Exchange's Internet Web site at http://www.ise.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 self-regulatory organization 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 Schedule of Fees to update the definition of Mini Option to reflect the recent Google stock split. ISE Gemini's sister exchange, the International Securities Exchange, LLC (“ISE”), recently amended Supplementary Material .13 to Rule 504, listing standards for Mini Options, which is incorporated by reference into Chapter 5 of the ISE Gemini rulebook, to enable the continued trading of Mini Options on Google Class A shares, which were assigned a new symbol, “GOOGL”, in connection with Google's recent stock split.^[3] The Exchange now proposes to similarly update the definition of “Mini Option” in its Schedule of Fees to indicate that Mini Options include options overlying ten shares of “GOOGL”. As proposed, “Mini Options” are options overlying ten (10) shares of AAPL, AMZN, GLD, GOOGL and SPY.

2. Statutory Basis

The Exchange believes that the proposed rule change is consistent with the provisions of Section 6 of the Act,^[4] in general, and Section 6(b)(4) of the Act,^[5] in particular, in that it is designed to provide for the equitable allocation of reasonable dues, fees, and other charges among its members and other persons using its facilities.

As part of Google's recent stock split, the symbol “GOOG” was assigned to the new Google Class C shares, while Google Class A shares were assigned the symbol “GOOGL”. The ISE recently updated its Mini Options rules, which are incorporated by reference into the ISE Gemini rulebook, to clarify that it will continue listing Mini Options on the Google Class A shares, i.e., GOOGL, and the Exchange believes that it is reasonable, equitable, and not unfairly discriminatory to update the definition of “Mini Option” in the ISE Gemini Schedule of Fees in order to eliminate investor confusion about which options classes are tradable as Mini Options on the Exchange.

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

In accordance with Section 6(b)(8) of the Act,^[6] the Exchange does not believe that the proposed rule change will impose any burden on intermarket or intramarket competition that is not necessary or appropriate in furtherance of the purposes of the Act. The proposed change to the definition of Mini Option is a technical change that will have no competitive impact.

C. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Comments on the Proposed Rule Change Received From Members, Participants or Others

The Exchange has not solicited, and does not intend to solicit, comments on this proposed rule change. The Exchange has not received any unsolicited written comments from members or other interested parties.

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)(ii) of the Act,^[7] and subparagraph (f)(2) of Rule 19b-4 thereunder,^[8] because it establishes a due, fee, or other charge imposed by ISE Gemini.

At any time within 60 days of the filing of such 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.
