Summary

MIAX proposes to amend Exchange Rule 531(d) to update the timeframe used for the Purge Liquidity Taker Report from the current timeframe to 500 microseconds. The timeframe measures the time difference between when the first response executing against a resting quote was received by the Exchange and when the purge message to cancel that resting quote was received. The Report is an optional daily product providing Market Makers with liquidity response and taker time details for executions occurring before and after receipt of a purge message.

What changed

The proposed rule change would amend Exchange Rule 531(d) to update the timeframe for the Purge Liquidity Taker Report from the current timeframe to 500 microseconds. This timeframe measures the time difference between the receipt of the first execution against a resting quote and the receipt of the corresponding purge message to cancel that quote.

Affected Market Makers who subscribe to the optional Report should monitor this proposed change as it may affect how liquidity response and taker timing data is captured and reported. The change represents a technical operational update to Exchange reporting functionality rather than a substantive change to market structure or trading obligations.

What to do next

  1. Monitor for updates on this proposed rule change
  2. Provide comments to MIAX or the SEC if desired

  1. Purpose The Exchange proposes to amend Exchange Rule 531(d) for the Report to update the timeframe used by the Exchange for the time difference between the time the first response that executes against the resting quote was received by the Exchange and the time that the purge 3 4 message that was sent by the Recipient Member to cancel that resting quote was received by the Exchange. The Exchange recently filed a proposed rule change with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("Commission") to establish the Report. On March 26, 2026, the Exchange issued 5 an alert announcing that the Report would become available for subscription beginning April 1, 2026. On March 31, 2026, the Exchange filed a proposed rule change with the Commission to, 6 among other things, establish fees for the Report. The Report is an optional product available to 7 Market Makers. 8 Report Content, Current Timeframes, and Scope The Report is a daily report that provides a Market Maker (referred to as the "Recipient Member") with the liquidity response/taker time details for executions against quotes entered by the Recipient Member that are resting on the Simple Order Book that occur before and after the 9

receipt of a purge message sent by the Recipient Member, where that Recipient Member attempted to cancel such resting quote within certain timeframes. The content of the Report is specific to the Recipient Member and the Report does not include any information related to any Member other than the Recipient Member, other than certain information about the resting 10 quote. The Exchange restricts all other market participants, including the Recipient Member, from receiving another market participant's data.

Resting Quote and Contra-Side Response Information. Exchange Rule

531(d)(1)(i) provides that the following information is included in the Report regarding the resting quote and contra-side response: (A) the time of execution of a contra-side response against a resting quote; (B) symbol; (C) origin type (e.g., Priority Customer , Market Maker); 11 (D) side (buy or sell); (E) displayed price and size of the resting quote ; (F) resting liquidity 12 identification number (a unique reference number assigned to a new quote at the time of receipt); and (G) trade reference number (unique reference number assigned to a trade at the time of execution).

Execution Against the Resting Quote Information. Exchange Rule 531(d)(1)(ii)

provides that the following information is included in the Report regarding the execution of the

The Exchange notes that the displayed price and size are also disseminated via the Exchange's proprietary 12 data feeds and the Options Price Reporting Authority ("OPRA"). The Exchange also notes that the displayed price of the resting order may be different than the ultimate execution price. This may occur when a resting order is displayed and ranked at different prices upon entry to avoid a locked or crossed ma rket.

Purge Message(s) Sent by Recipient Member Information. Exchange Rule

531(d)(1)(iii) provides that the following information is included in the Report regarding the purge message(s) sent by the Recipient Member to cancel the resting quote: (A) Recipient Member identifier; (B) the time a purge message was received by the Exchange; (C) the time difference between the time the first response that executes against the resting quote was

Member to cancel that resting quote was received by the Exchange; (D) the time difference between the time the purge message that was sent by the Recipient Member to cancel the resting quote was received by the Exchange and the time of the next response that executes against a resting quote was received by the Exchange, after the initial purge message; (E) size and type of each response submitted by the contra-side that executes against the resting quote before and after the purge message is sent by the Recipient Member; and (F) purge message identifier (a unique identifier attached to the purge message sent by the Recipient Member).

Timeframes for Data Included in Report

Exchange Rule 531(d)(2)(i) provides that for the purge message sent by the Recipient Member to cancel the resting quote after the response that executes against that resting quote is

The term "MBBO" means the best bid or offer on the Exchange. See Exchange Rule 100. 13 Exchange Rule 531(d)(1)(ii)(A) further provides that if m ultiple contra -side responses execute against a 14 resting quote, only the MBBO at the time of the execution against the first response will be included. The term "ABBO" or "Away Best Bid or Offer" means the best bid(s) or offer(s) disseminated by other 15 Eligible Exchanges (defined in Exchange Rule 1400(g)) and calculated by the Exchange based on market information received by the Exchange from OPRA. See Exchange Rule 100. Exchange Rule 531(d)(1)(ii)(B) further provides that if m ultiple contra -side responses execute against a 16 resting quote, only the ABBO at the time of the execution against the first response will be included.

SR-MIAX-2026-15 Page 7 of 28

received by the Exchange pursuant to paragraph (d)(1)(iii)(C) above, the Report includes the data listed in paragraph (d)(1) of Exchange Rule 531 within 100 microseconds from the time the resting quote was executed against to the Exchange's receipt of the purge message. Exchange Rule 531(d)(2)(ii) provides that for the purge message sent by the Recipient Member to cancel the resting quote before the next response that executes against that resting quote was received by the Exchange pursuant to paragraph (d)(1)(iii)(D) above, the Report includes the data listed in paragraph (d)(1) of Exchange Rule 531 within 200 microseconds from the time the Exchange

Scope of Data Included in the Report

Exchange Rule 531(d)(3) provides that the Report only includes trading data related to the Recipient Member and will not include any other Member's trading data other than that listed in paragraphs (1)(i) and (ii) of Exchange Rule 531(d), as described above.

Historical Data

Exchange Rule 531(d)(4) specifies that the Report contains historical data from the previous trading day and will be available after the end of the trading day, generally on a T+1 basis. Proposal The Exchange proposes to amend Exchange Rule 531(d)(2)(i) to increase the timeframe for the time difference between the time the first response that executes against the resting quote was received by the Exchange and the time that the purge message that was sent by the Recipient Member to cancel that resting quote was received by the Exchange. In particular, the Exchange proposes to amend Exchange Rule 531(d)(2)(i) to provide that for the purge message sent by the Recipient Member to cancel the resting quote after the response that executes against that resting

SR-MIAX-2026-15 Page 8 of 28

quote is received by the Exchange pursuant to paragraph (d)(1)(iii)(C) above, the Purge Liquidity Taker Report will include the data listed in paragraph (d)(1) of Exchange Rule 531 within 500 microseconds (instead of 100 microseconds) from the time the resting quote was executed against to the Exchange's receipt of the purge message. 17 The purpose of this change is for subscribers to the Report to see additional data points regarding their interactions with the Exchange to purge resting quotes when those quotes were executed prior to the Exchange receiving the purge message. The proposed increased timeframe should provide Recipient Members with a greater understanding of how much time their purge message(s) missed canceling a resting quote after that quote was executed. As currently provided under Exchange Rule 531(d)(2)(i), the Recipient Member would only see the information provided in the Report if their purge message missed canceling a quote in 100 microseconds or less from when that quote was executed. By increasing the timeframe, Recipient Members will be able to receive the information provided for in the Report within 500 microseconds or less from when that quote was executed. The Exchange believes this longer timeframe better serves the purpose of the Report by providing Market Makers with greater opportunities to improve quote cancel success, particularly as market conditions change throughout the day and Market Makers seek to update their quotes accordingly. The Exchange does not propose to amend the content, any other timeframes or scope of the Report and will continue to make the Report available after the end of the trading day, generally

For example, with the proposed change, Market Maker A provides two-sided quotes in a particular symbol 17 and Member B, at some point thereafter, submits a marketable order to execute against Market Maker A's resting quotes. Within 500 microseconds (up from 100 microseconds) of submission of Member B's order, Market Maker A sends a purge message to cancel all or a subset of the quotes. Because Member B's order is processed at the matching engine by the Exchange before Market Maker A's purge message, Member B's order executes against Market Maker A's quotes. The Report would provide Market Maker A the data points necessary for that firm to calculate by how much time they missed canceling all or a subset of their quotes for that particular symbol.

SR-MIAX-2026-15 Page 9 of 28

on a T+1 basis.

  1. Statutory Basis The Exchange believes the proposed rule change is consistent with the Act and the rules and regulations thereunder applicable to the Exchange and, in particular, the requirements of Section 6(b) of the Act. Specifically, the Exchange believes the proposed rule change is 18 requirements that the rules of an exchange be designed to consistent with the Section 6(b)(5) 19 prevent fraudulent and manipulative acts and practices, to promote just and equitable principles of trade, to foster cooperation and coordination with persons engaged in regulating, clearing, settling, processing information with respect to, and facilitating transactions in securities, 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. Additionally, the Exchange believes the proposed rule change is consistent with the Section 6(b)(5) requirement 20 that the rules of an exchange not be designed to permit unfair discrimination between customers, issuers, brokers, or dealers. The Exchange believes the proposed change to amend the Report to increase the timeframe for the time difference between the time the first response that executes against the resting quote was received by the Exchange and the time that the purge message that was sent by the Recipient Member to cancel that resting quote was received by the Exchange removes impediments to and perfects the mechanism of a free and open market. This is because the proposed increased timeframe should further enhance the usefulness of the Report, which is

SR-MIAX-2026-15 Page 10 of 28

accordingly. The Exchange believes that with the proposed change, the Report continues to promote just and equitable principles of trade because it would provide latency information in a systematized way and standardized format to any Member that chooses to subscribe to the Report, as proposed to be amended by the increased timeframe. The Report will continue to not be a real-time market data product and will provide only historical data for the previous trading day, generally on a T+1 basis. Further, the data included in the Report, including additional data that may be provided with the increased timeframe, would continue to be specific to the Recipient Member regarding incoming purge messages that failed to cancel resting quotes ahead of an execution against those quotes. The Report was designed for Market Makers that are interested in gaining insight into latency in connection with their purge messages that failed to cancel resting quotes. The Exchange believes that increasing the timeframe is consistent with facilitating transactions in securities, removing impediments to and perfecting the mechanism of a free and open market and a national market system, and, in general, protecting investors and the public interest because it provides additional information and insight to subscribing market participants regarding their interactions with the Exchange. More specifically, the Report, as proposed to be modified herein, will continue to provide greater visibility by showing how much time a purge message missed canceling a quote, particularly as market conditions change throughout the day and Market Makers attempt to cancel and replace quotes in certain symbols. Additionally, the proposal would not permit unfair discrimination because the Report will continue to be available to all Exchange Market Makers and all Market Makers that subscribe

SR-MIAX-2026-15 Page 11 of 28

will receive the same data points for the same timeframe, with the information specific to the Recipient Member.

  1. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Burden on Competition The Exchange does not believe that the proposed rule change will result in any burden on competition that is not necessary or appropriate in furtherance of the purposes of the Act, as amended. Rather, the Exchange believes that the proposal may promote or enhance intra-market competition because subscribers to the Report will see additional data points regarding their interactions with the Exchange to purge resting quotes when those quotes were executed prior to the Exchange receiving the purge message. The proposed increased timeframe should provide Recipient Members with a greater understanding of how much time their purge message(s) missed canceling a resting quote after that quote was executed. The Exchange believes this longer timeframe may promote intra-market competition by providing Market Makers with greater opportunities to improve quote cancel success, particularly as market conditions change throughout the day and Market Makers seek to update their quotes accordingly. Furthermore, this product offering is entirely optional and is available to any Market Maker that believes this data will be helpful for their business purposes. As such, the Exchange does not believe this proposed rule change places any burden on intra-market competition that is not necessary or appropriate in furtherance of the purposes of the Act. The Exchange also believes this proposal does not place any burden on inter-market competition that is not necessary or appropriate in furtherance of the purposes of the Act because other exchanges may offer similar reports and products that contain similar data points as the Report that are applicable to resting quotes and cancel messages of market participants of those exchanges. Accordingly, the Exchange believes this proposed rule change permits fair

SR-MIAX-2026-15 Page 12 of 28

competition among national securities exchanges.

  1. 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.

  1. Extension of Time Period for Commission Action

Not applicable.

  1. Basis for Summary Effectiveness Pursuant to Section 19(b)(3) or for Accelerated Effectiveness Pursuant to Section 19(b)(2)

Pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A) of the Act and Rule 19b-4(f)(6) thereunder, the 21 22 Exchange has designated this proposal as one that effects a change that: (i) does not significantly affect the protection of investors or the public interest; (ii) does not impose any significant burden on competition; and (iii) by its terms, does not become operative for 30 days after the date of the filing, or such shorter time as the Commission may designate if consistent with the protection of investors and the public interest. The Exchange designed the Report for Market Makers that are interested in gaining insight into latency in connection with their purge messages that failed to cancel quotes resting on the Exchange's Simple Order Book by providing those Market Makers data on a T+1 basis to analyze by how much time their respective purge message may have missed cancelling a resting quote. As proposed to be amended, the Report will provide greater visibility to Market Makers regarding quotes that were missed when they submitted a purge message, which may allow Market Makers to optimize their models and learn how to better invest in technology to mitigate the missed cancels. Additionally, the Exchange believes the Report, as proposed to be amended,

15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A). 21

SR-MIAX-2026-15 Page 13 of 28

will better provide information to help subscribing market participants determine how best to reduce exposure and manage risk, which may enhance Market Makers' confidence in providing tight quotes, which benefits all market participants by providing tighter spreads and greater trading opportunities. In addition, the Exchange does not believe that the proposed increased timeframe for the Report presents any substantive issues not already considered by the Commission. The purpose of the proposed increased timeframe is to enhance the usefulness of the Report, which is

accordingly. Therefore, the Exchange does not believe the proposed change to the Report will significantly affect the protection of investors or the public interest. Rather, the Exchange believes the proposed change to increase the timeframe of the Report will benefit investors by allowing Market Makers to provide better informed quotes for all market participants trading on the Exchange. Additionally, the Exchange does not believe the proposed change to the Report will impose any significant burden on competition. Rather, the Exchange believes that the proposal may promote or enhance competition because subscribers to the Report will see additional data points regarding their interactions with the Exchange to purge resting quotes when those quotes were executed prior to the Exchange receiving the purge message. The proposed increased timeframe should provide Recipient Members with a greater understanding of how much time their purge message(s) missed canceling a resting quote after that quote was executed. The Exchange believes this longer timeframe may promote competition by providing Market Makers with greater opportunities to improve quote cancel success, particularly as market conditions

SR-MIAX-2026-15 Page 14 of 28

change throughout the day and Market Makers seek to update their quotes accordingly. Furthermore, this product offering is entirely optional and is available to any Market Maker that believes this data will be helpful for their business purposes. Other exchanges may offer similar reports and products that contain similar data points as the Report that are applicable to resting quotes and cancel messages of market participants of those exchanges. The Exchange believes this proposed change does not impose any significant burden on competition because it will apply evenly to all Recipient Members and does not raise any new or novel regulatory issues. Accordingly, because the proposed change does not introduce any new regulatory issues, the Exchange has filed this rule filing as non-controversial under Section 19(b)(3)(A) of the Act 23 and paragraph (f)(6) of Rule 19b-4 thereunder. 24 Rule 19b-4(f)(6) requires a self-regulatory organization to give the Commission written notice of its intent to file 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. Furthermore, a proposed rule change filed pursuant to Rule 19b-4(f)(6) under the Act normally does not become operative for 30 days after the date 25 of its filing. However, Rule 19b-4(f)(6) permits the Commission to designate a shorter time if 26 such action is consistent with the protection of investors and the public interest. The Exchange respectfully requests that the Commission waive the requirement that the proposed rule change, by its terms, not become operative for 30 days after the date of the filing

23 24

Id. 25

SR-MIAX-2026-15 Page 15 of 28

as set forth in Rule 19b-4(f)(6)(iii), so that the proposed change may become operative 27 immediately. The Exchange believes that the proposed changes will not adversely impact investors and will permit the Exchange to immediately offer the Report with the increased timeframe to Market Makers. The Exchange believes the proposed increased timeframe should further enhance the usefulness of the Report, which is designed to aid Market Makers by improving quote cancel success, particularly as market conditions change throughout the day and Market Makers seek to update their quotes accordingly. Furthermore, this product offering is entirely optional and is available to any Market Maker that believes this data will be helpful for their business purposes. Because the proposed rules changes do not raise any new or novel regulatory issues, the Exchange believes that waiver of the operative delay would be consistent with the protection of investors and the public interest. 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.

The Report is an optional product available to 7 Market Makers. 8 Report Content, Current Timeframes, and Scope The Report is a daily report that provides a Market Maker (referred to as the "Recipient Member") with the liquidity response/taker time details for executions against quotes entered by the Recipient Member that are resting on the Simple Order Book that occur before and after the 9 receipt of a purge message sent by the Recipient Member, where that Recipient Member attempted to cancel such resting quote within certain timeframes. The content of the Report is specific to the Recipient Member and the Report does not include any information related to any Member other than the Recipient Member, other than certain information about the resting 10 quote. The Exchange restricts all other market participants, including the Recipient Member, from receiving another market participant's data.

Exchange Rule 531(d)(2)(i) provides that for the purge message sent by the Recipient Member to cancel the resting quote after the response that executes against that resting quote is received by the Exchange pursuant to paragraph (d)(1)(iii)(C) above, the Report includes the data listed in paragraph (d)(1) of Exchange Rule 531 within 100 microseconds from the time the resting quote was executed against to the Exchange's receipt of the purge message. Exchange Rule 531(d)(2)(ii) provides that for the purge message sent by the Recipient Member to cancel the resting quote before the next response that executes against that resting quote was received by the Exchange pursuant to paragraph (d)(1)(iii)(D) above, the Report includes the data listed in paragraph (d)(1) of Exchange Rule 531 within 200 microseconds from the time the Exchange

Scope of Data Included in the Report

Exchange Rule 531(d)(3) provides that the Report only includes trading data related to the Recipient Member and will not include any other Member's trading data other than that listed in paragraphs (1)(i) and (ii) of Exchange Rule 531(d), as described above.

Historical Data

Exchange Rule 531(d)(4) specifies that the Report contains historical data from the previous trading day and will be available after the end of the trading day, generally on a T+1 basis. Proposal The Exchange proposes to amend Exchange Rule 531(d)(2)(i) to increase the timeframe for the time difference between the time the first response that executes against the resting quote was received by the Exchange and the time that the purge message that was sent by the Recipient

SR-MIAX-2026-15 Page 22 of 28 Member to cancel that resting quote was received by the Exchange. In particular, the Exchange proposes to amend Exchange Rule 531(d)(2)(i) to provide that for the purge message sent by the Recipient Member to cancel the resting quote after the response that executes against that resting quote is received by the Exchange pursuant to paragraph (d)(1)(iii)(C) above, the Purge Liquidity Taker Report will include the data listed in paragraph (d)(1) of Exchange Rule 531 within 500 microseconds (instead of 100 microseconds) from the time the resting quote was executed against to the Exchange's receipt of the purge message. 17 The purpose of this change is for subscribers to the Report to see additional data points regarding their interactions with the Exchange to purge resting quotes when those quotes were executed prior to the Exchange receiving the purge message. The proposed increased timeframe should provide Recipient Members with a greater understanding of how much time their purge message(s) missed canceling a resting quote after that quote was executed. As currently provided under Exchange Rule 531(d)(2)(i), the Recipient Member would only see the information provided in the Report if their purge message missed canceling a quote in 100 microseconds or less from when that quote was executed. By increasing the timeframe, Recipient Members will be able to receive the information provided for in the Report within 500 microseconds or less from when that quote was executed. The Exchange believes this longer timeframe better serves the purpose of the Report by providing Market Makers with greater opportunities to improve quote cancel success, particularly as market conditions change throughout the day and Market Makers seek to update

For example, with the proposed change, Market Maker A provides two-sided quotes in a particular symbol 17 and Member B, at some point thereafter, submits a marketable order to execute against Market Maker A's resting quotes. Within 500 microseconds (up from 100 microseconds) of submission of Member B's order, Market Maker A sends a purge message to cancel all or a subset of the quotes. Because Member B's order is processed at the matching engine by the Exchange before Market Maker A's purge message, Member B's order executes against Market Maker A's quotes. The Report would provide Market Maker A the data points necessary for that firm to calculate by how much time they missed canceling all or a subset of their quotes for that particular symbol.

SR-MIAX-2026-15 Page 23 of 28 their quotes accordingly. The Exchange does not propose to amend the content, any other timeframes or scope of the Report and will continue to make the Report available after the end of the trading day, generally on a T+1 basis.

  1. Statutory Basis The Exchange believes the proposed rule change is consistent with the Act and the rules and regulations thereunder applicable to the Exchange and, in particular, the requirements of Section 6(b) of the Act. Specifically, the Exchange believes the proposed rule change is 18 consistent with the Section 6(b)(5) requirements that the rules of an exchange be designed to 19 prevent fraudulent and manipulative acts and practices, to promote just and equitable principles of trade, to foster cooperation and coordination with persons engaged in regulating, clearing, settling, processing information with respect to, and facilitating transactions in securities, 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. Additionally, the Exchange believes the proposed rule change is consistent with the Section 6(b)(5) requirement 20 that the rules of an exchange not be designed to permit unfair discrimination between customers, issuers, brokers, or dealers. The Exchange believes the proposed change to amend the Report to increase the timeframe for the time difference between the time the first response that executes against the resting quote was received by the Exchange and the time that the purge message that was sent by the Recipient Member to cancel that resting quote was received by the Exchange removes

SR-MIAX-2026-15 Page 24 of 28 impediments to and perfects the mechanism of a free and open market. This is because the proposed increased timeframe should further enhance the usefulness of the Report, which is

accordingly. The Exchange believes that with the proposed change, the Report continues to promote just and equitable principles of trade because it would provide latency information in a systematized way and standardized format to any Member that chooses to subscribe to the Report, as proposed to be amended by the increased timeframe. The Report will continue to not be a real-time market data product and will provide only historical data for the previous trading day, generally on a T+1 basis. Further, the data included in the Report, including additional data that may be provided with the increased timeframe, would continue to be specific to the Recipient Member regarding incoming purge messages that failed to cancel resting quotes ahead of an execution against those quotes. The Report was designed for Market Makers that are interested in gaining insight into latency in connection with their purge messages that failed to cancel resting quotes. The Exchange believes that increasing the timeframe is consistent with facilitating transactions in securities, removing impediments to and perfecting the mechanism of a free and open market and a national market system, and, in general, protecting investors and the public interest because it provides additional information and insight to subscribing market participants regarding their interactions with the Exchange. More specifically, the Report, as proposed to be modified herein, will continue to provide greater visibility by showing how much time a purge message missed canceling a quote, particularly as market conditions change throughout the day and Market Makers attempt to cancel and replace quotes in certain symbols.

SR-MIAX-2026-15 Page 25 of 28 Additionally, the proposal would not permit unfair discrimination because the Report will continue to be available to all Exchange Market Makers and all Market Makers that subscribe will receive the same data points for the same timeframe, with the information specific to the Recipient Member.

  1. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Burden on Competition The Exchange does not believe that the proposed rule change will result in any burden on competition that is not necessary or appropriate in furtherance of the purposes of the Act, as amended. Rather, the Exchange believes that the proposal may promote or enhance intra-market competition because subscribers to the Report will see additional data points regarding their interactions with the Exchange to purge resting quotes when those quotes were executed prior to the Exchange receiving the purge message. The proposed increased timeframe should provide Recipient Members with a greater understanding of how much time their purge message(s) missed canceling a resting quote after that quote was executed. The Exchange believes this longer timeframe may promote intra-market competition by providing Market Makers with greater opportunities to improve quote cancel success, particularly as market conditions change throughout the day and Market Makers seek to update their quotes accordingly. Furthermore, this product offering is entirely optional and is available to any Market Maker that believes this data will be helpful for their business purposes. As such, the Exchange does not believe this proposed rule change places any burden on intra-market competition that is not necessary or appropriate in furtherance of the purposes of the Act. The Exchange also believes this proposal does not place any burden on inter-market competition that is not necessary or appropriate in furtherance of the purposes of the Act because other exchanges may offer similar reports and products that contain similar data points as the Report that are applicable to resting quotes and cancel messages of market participants of those

SR-MIAX-2026-15 Page 26 of 28 exchanges. Accordingly, the Exchange believes this proposed rule change permits fair competition among national securities exchanges.
