Fee Credit for Backup Ports During Migration
If your firm is a Member or Trading Permit Holder, you may get a credit of the monthly logical port fees for a Redundant Logical Port you establish solely as a backup during an Exchange-initiated order entry protocol Migration. To get the credit you must meet the conditions the Exchange lists (notify the Trade Desk, use the port only as backup for migration-related Exchange issues, cancel it within 30 calendar days, and submit a credit request within 30 days after cancellation).
30-Calendar-Day Overlap Eligibility Limit
You may keep a Redundant Logical Port and remain eligible for the fee credit only if you cancel that Redundant Logical Port within 30 calendar days of designating it as a Redundant Logical Port; the Exchange measures this period in calendar days (including weekends and holidays).
Credit Only for Exchange-Initiated Migrations
The fee credit applies only when the redundant port is established in connection with an Exchange-initiated Migration; ports a Member establishes for Member-initiated changes (for example, switching protocols on the Member's own initiative) are not eligible for the credit.
Applies to Members and TPHs Across Affiliated Exchanges
The Redundant Logical Port fee credit is available to Members and Trading Permit Holders on EDGX Options and its affiliated exchanges—BYX, BZX, EDGA, Cboe Exchange, Inc., and C2—on the same objective terms.
Credit Issued After Exchange Review and Next Billing
After you submit a credit request, the Exchange will review the Redundant Logical Port's order/quote usage to confirm you met the conditions, and if confirmed the Exchange will apply the credit to your invoice for the billing cycle following the Exchange's confirmation.

2026-18190, Transfer Agent Rules
The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC" or "Commission") is proposing to adopt new rules, amend existing rules, amend the existing form for registration with the Commission as a transfer agent (Form TA-1) and the existing form for reporting activities of transfer agents (Form TA-2), and rescind an existing rule governing registered transfer agents. The proposals are designed to modernize the rules governing registered transfer agents.
2026-17183, Regulation Crypto Assets
The Securities and Exchange Commission ("Commission") is proposing new rules to create a tailored offering regime for certain investment contracts involving crypto assets. The proposed offering regime is intended to facilitate capital formation and accommodate innovation within the crypto asset markets while, at the same time, ensuring that investors are adequately protected and provided with the information they need to make informed investment decisions. The proposed rules would be set forth in a new regulation titled "Regulation Crypto Assets" and would include two exemptions from the registration requirements of section 5 of the Securities Act of 1933. The first exemption would permit offerings of up to $5 million during a four-year period. The second exemption would permit offerings of up to $75 million during each 12-month period. Under both exemptions, issuers would be required to make certain principles-based narrative disclosures available to their investors. In addition, issuers under the second exemption would be required to provide financial statements and would be subject to ongoing reporting requirements. Issuers that rely on these exemptions would remain subject to the antifraud and antimanipulation provisions of the Federal securities laws. The proposed rules also would include a conditional safe harbor from the term "investment contract" in the definitions of "security" in the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. If the conditions of that proposed safe harbor are satisfied, then a crypto asset would be deemed not to be subject to an investment contract for purposes of those definitions of "security."
