(2) FINRA will notify each ADF Trading Center as soon as possible after it has exceeded its projections; and
(3) The ADF Trading Center will be invoiced for the penalties once FINRA has received its invoice from the SIP(s).

(1) the term "ADF Trading Center," shall have the same meaning as defined in Rule 6220; and
(2) the term "National Market System Data Plans" means the Consolidated Tape Association Plan, the Consolidated Quotation Plan, and the Unlisted Trading Privileges Plan.
