PSX Pricing
All U.S. Equities**
**Please note that this prices list is abbreviated. For the most comprehensive view of Nasdaq PSX connectivity options and fee schedule please review Phlx Equity 7of the Rule Book.
For all Add pricing tier/incentives on this fee schedule, Nasdaq PSX will calculate a member's percentage of consolidated volume twice - (1) once including activity at all price levels and (2) once excluding all volume below $1 (in the numerator and denominator) while also increasing the required volume percentage threshold by 10% (i.e. 0.10% becomes 0.11%). Nasdaq PSX will determine under which consolidated volume calculation a member receives the best rebate/fee and apply it automatically.

Rule 11890 Fees
Complaints
PSX will charge fees for members who file more than two unsuccessful clearly erroneous complaints during a calendar month.
- Each security listed in a filing is treated as a separate complaint for purposes of this fee.
- An unsuccessful complaint is one in which PSX does not break any of the trades included in that complain
Following the second unsuccessful complaint, the member shall be assessed a fee of $250 for each additional unsuccessful complaint.
Appeals
There is a $500 fee for unsuccessful appeals of Clearly Erroneous Rule 11890 adjudications. The party initiating the appeal shall be assessed the $500 fee if the Market Operations Review Committee (MORC) upholds the decision of the Nasdaq official who made the initial determination. The fee will be reflected in the monthly invoice.
Sales Fees to Fund Section 31 Obligations
In order to fund Section 31 exchange obligations, we assess a Sales Fee to Clearing Firms relative to the covered sale activity of their executing brokers on PSX.
The Sales Fee will be assessed no later than the 10th calendar day of the following month and facilitated through a direct debit against the Clearing Firm's settlement account at the National Securities Clearing Corporation (NSCC).
The PSX sales fee invoicing is performed separately from NASDAQ and BX. There are discreet invoices and support files available. The PSX direct debit appears on the Settlement Account line #62 of firm's DTCC settlement invoice. The BX direct debit appears on the Settlement Account line #45 and the NASDAQ direct debit appears on the Settlement Account line #43.
