Proposed Rule Change to Amend NASD Rule 7002B to Establish Fees for the Transfer of Transaction Fees Through the NASD/Nasdaq Trade Reporting Facility

NASD has filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC" or "Commission") a proposed rule change to amend NASD Rule 7002B to establish a fee for reports that are submitted to the NASD/Nasdaq Trade Reporting Facility (the "NASD/Nasdaq TRF") to process transaction fees charged by one member to another member pursuant to Rule 6130(h). In addition, NASD is proposing technical, non-substantive amendments to the NASD Rule 7000 Series to change all references to the "Trade Reporting Facility" to the "NASD/Nasdaq Trade Reporting Facility."
