[Release No. 34-83478; File No. SR-ISE-2018-54]


Self-Regulatory Organizations; Nasdaq ISE, LLC; Notice of Filing 
and Immediate Effectiveness of Proposed Rule Change To Relocate the 
Exchange's Rules Pertaining to Co-location and Direct Connectivity

June 20, 2018.
    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 June 5, 2018, Nasdaq ISE, LLC (``ISE'' or ``Exchange'') filed with 
the Securities and Exchange Commission (``Commission'') the proposed 
rule change as described in Items I and II 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.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(1).
    \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 relocate the Exchange's rules pertaining 
to co-location and direct connectivity, which are presently at Section 
VI, subsections E (co-location) and F-H (direct connectivity) of the 
Exchange's Schedule of Fees, to the Exchange's new rulebook shell, 
entitled ``General Rules,'' at new General 8 (``Connectivity''), 
Sections 1 and 2, respectively.
    The text of the proposed rule change is available on the Exchange's 
website at http://ise.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 Exchange proposes to relocate its rules governing co-location 
and direct connectivity services, which presently comprise Section VI, 
subsections E (co-location) and F-H (direct connectivity) of the 
Exchange's Schedule of Fees. The Exchange proposes to establish, within 
its new rulebook shell,\3\ a new General 8 heading, entitled 
``Connectivity,'' to renumber Section VI, subsection E as Section 1 
thereunder, and to renumber Section VI, subsections F, G, and H as 
Section 2(a), (b), and (c) thereunder.\4\ The Exchange also proposes to 
update internal cross-references in the renumbered Rules.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ Recently, the Exchange added a shell structure to its 
Rulebook with the purpose of improving efficiency and readability 
and to align its rules closer to those of its five sister exchanges: 
The Nasdaq Stock Exchange, LLC; Nasdaq BX, Inc.; Nasdaq PHLX LLC; 
Nasdaq GEMX, LLC; and Nasdaq MRX, LLC (together with ISE, the 
``Affiliated Exchanges''). See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 
82173 (November 29, 2017), 82 FR 57505 (December 5, 2017) (SR-ISE-
2017-102).
    \4\ The Exchange notes that as a consequence of this proposal, 
it will list its fees, in part, in Section VI of the Rulebook and, 
in part, in General 8.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange considers it appropriate to relocate these Rules to 
better organize its Rulebook. The other Affiliated Exchanges intend to 
propose similar reorganizations of their co-location and direct 
connectivity rules so that these rules will be harmonized among all of 
the Affiliated Exchanges.
    The relocation of the co-location and direct connectivity rules is 
part of the Exchange's continued effort to promote efficiency and 
conformity of its processes with those of its Affiliated Exchanges. The 
Exchange believes that moving the co-location and direct connectivity 
rules to their new location will facilitate the use of the Rulebook by 
Members of the Exchange who are members of other Affiliated Exchanges. 
Moreover, the proposed changes are of a non-substantive nature and will 
not amend the relocated rules other than to update their numbers and 
make conforming cross-reference changes.
2. Statutory Basis
    The Exchange believes that its proposal is consistent with Section 
6(b) of the Act,\5\ in general, and furthers the objectives of Section 
6(b)(5) of the Act,\6\ 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 improving the way its Rulebook is organized, providing ease of 
reference in locating co-location and direct connectivity rules, and 
harmonizing the Exchange's Rules with those of the other Affiliated 
Exchanges. As previously stated, the proposed Rule relocation is non-
substantive.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b).
    \6\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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 intermarket or intra-market competition that is 
not necessary or appropriate in furtherance of the purposes of the Act. 
The proposed changes do not impose a burden on competition because, as 
previously stated, they (i) are of a non-substantive nature, (ii) are 
intended to harmonize the Exchange's rules with those of its Affiliated 
Exchanges, and (iii) are intended to organize the Rulebook in a way 
that it will ease the Members' navigation and reading of the rules 
across the Affiliated Exchanges.

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

    Because the foregoing proposed rule change does not: (i) 
Significantly affect the protection of investors or the public 
interest; (ii) impose any significant burden on competition; and (iii) 
become operative for 30 days from the date on which it was filed, or 
such shorter time as the Commission may designate, it has become 
effective pursuant to Section

[[Page 29843]]

19(b)(3)(A) of the Act \7\ and Rule 19b-4(f)(6) thereunder.\8\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A).
    \8\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6). In addition, Rule 19b-4(f)(6)(iii) 
requires a self-regulatory organization to give the Commission 
written notice of its intent to file the proposed rule change, along 
with a brief description and text of the proposed rule change, at 
least five business days prior to the date of filing of the proposed 
rule change, or such shorter time as designated by the Commission. 
The Exchange has satisfied this requirement.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    A proposed rule change filed pursuant to Rule 19b-4(f)(6) under the 
Act \9\ normally does not become operative for 30 days after the date 
of its filing. However, Rule 19b-4(f)(6)(iii) \10\ permits the 
Commission to designate a shorter time if such action is consistent 
with the protection of investors and the public interest. The Exchange 
has requested that the Commission waive the 30-day operative delay so 
that the proposed rule change may become operative upon filing. The 
proposed rule change merely relocates the co-location and direct 
connectivity rules in the Exchange's Schedule of Fees, as well as 
corrects a technical error.\11\ Accordingly, the Commission believes 
that waiver of the 30-day operative delay is consistent with the 
protection of investors and the public interest and hereby waives the 
operative delay and designates the proposed rule change operative upon 
filing.\12\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \9\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6).
    \10\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6)(iii).
    \11\ Specifically, with respect to Point of Presence (POP) 
Connectivity, the Exchange corrects an incorrect reference to GEMX 
in the rule text to ISE.
    \12\ For purposes only of waiving the 30-day operative delay, 
the Commission also has considered the proposed rule's impact on 
efficiency, competition, and capital formation. See 15 U.S.C. 
78c(f).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    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 change should be approved or 
disapproved.

IV. Solicitation of Comments

arguments concerning the foregoing, including whether the proposed rule 
change is consistent with the Act. Comments may be submitted by any of
