Summary

NASDAQ ISE, LLC filed a proposed rule change with the SEC to establish fees for expanded colocation services in its NY11-5 data center expansion area in Carteret, NJ. The Exchange proposes an installation fee of $5,940 for the Cabinet offering in NY11-5, consistent with the corresponding fee for the same cabinet option in NY11-4. No ongoing monthly fee is proposed for the NY11-5 Cabinet offering. The proposed fees mirror those for NY11-4, as both expansion areas share similar infrastructure features and the NY11-5 Cabinet offers the same features as the corresponding option in NY11-4.

What changed

The proposed rule change would establish fees for the NY11-5 data center expansion area, specifically setting an installation fee of $5,940 for the Cabinet offering. The Exchange would amend Rule General 8, Section 1(a) to replace "TBD" placeholder with the fee amount and update footnote language to clarify fees apply to both NY11-4 and NY11-5. The proposed fees mirror the existing NY11-4 installation fees, reflecting comparable infrastructure between the two expansion areas.

For market participants and trading firms utilizing or considering NASDAQ ISE colocation services, this proposal introduces fee transparency for the new NY11-5 expansion. The $5,940 installation fee, with no associated monthly fee, aligns with the pricing structure in the existing NY11-4 hall. Firms planning data center infrastructure should factor these costs into operational budgeting for colocation arrangements.

What to do next

  1. Monitor for SEC approval and any modifications to proposed fees
  2. Review colocation infrastructure costs if utilizing NASDAQ ISE data center services

SR-ISE-2026-15 Page 4 of 27 area ("NY11-5"). The Exchange filed a proposal to expand its colocation services by making available in NY11-5 certain colocation offerings that were previously available only in NY11-4. 3 This proposed rule change seeks to establish fees for such expanded colocation services.

Fees for Cabinet Offering in NY11-5

The Exchange filed a proposal to introduce in NY11-5 the cabinet option that was previously only available in NY11-4 ("Cabinet"). The Exchange now proposes to establish an 4 installation fee for that Cabinet offering in NY11-5. First, the Exchange proposes an installation fee for that Cabinet offering in NY11-5. Consistent with corresponding installation fees established for NY11-4, the Exchange proposes an installation fee of $5,940 for the Cabinet offering in NY11-5. Consistent with the approach 5 in NY11 and NY11-4, the Exchange is not proposing an ongoing monthly fee for the proposed Cabinet offering in NY11-5. 6 The Exchange believes that establishing an installation fee for the Cabinet offering in NY11-5 that is equivalent to the corresponding installation fee for the same Cabinet option in NY11-4 is appropriate because NY11-4 and NY11-5 are data center expansion areas that share similar infrastructure features and the proposed Cabinet offering for NY11-5 in particular offers

See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 105024 (Mar. 17, 2026), 91 FR 13656 (Mar. 20, 2026) (SR-ISE-3 2026-12).

To effect this change, the Exchange proposes to amend Rule General 8, Section 1(a) as follows. The 5 Exchange proposes to delete, from entry applicable to the Cabinet offering under the column titled "NY11- 4/-5 Installation Fee" the forward slash and acronym "/TBD." The Exchange further proposes to insert, immediately following the only sentence in the current footnote designated with a dagger, the following sentence: "Fees depicted hereunder apply to NY11-4 and NY11-5." The Exchange believes the proposed changes are appropriate to indicate that the fees shown on Rule General 8, Section 1(a) for the Cabinet offering under the column titled "NY11-4/-5" apply equally to Cabinets in NY11-4 as well as NY11-5. See proposed Rule General 8, Section 1(a). See proposed Rule General 8, Section 1(a). 6

SR-ISE-2026-15 Page 5 of 27 the same features as those of the corresponding cabinet option in NY11-4. Thus, the Exchange is establishing NY11-5 fees that mirror the fees for the corresponding cabinet option in NY11-4.

Fees for Cabinet Power Options in NY11-5

Rule General 8, Section 1(c) provides that the following (five) cabinet power options are available exclusively in NY11-4: Phase 1 20 amp 240 volt, Phase 1 32 amp 240 volt, Phase 1 40 amp 240 volt, Phase 3 20 amp 415 volt, and Phase 3 32 amp 415 volt (collectively, "Extension Area Power Circuit Offerings"). The Exchange filed a proposal to introduce such Extension 7 Area Power Circuit Offerings (which were previously available only in NY11-4) in NY11-5. 8 The Exchange now proposes to establish fees for Extension Area Power Circuit Offerings in NY11-5. In alignment with established fees for NY11-4, the Exchange proposes installation and ongoing monthly fees for Extension Area Power Circuit Offerings in NY11-5 that are identical to the fees applicable to the corresponding power circuits in NY11-4 as follows. First, the Exchange proposes to establish power installation fees for Extension Area Power Circuit Offerings in NY11-5 that are equivalent to corresponding power installation fees for the corresponding power circuit offerings in NY11-4. Installation fees for the various cabinet power options in NY11-4 are as follows: $3,600 for all Phase 1 options and $4,560 for Phase 3 options. Accordingly, proposed installation fees for Extension Area Power Circuit Offerings in 9 NY11-5 are as follows: $3,600 for all Phase 1 options and $4,560 for Phase 3 options. 10

7 8 9

See proposed Rule General 8, Section 1(c). To effect this change, the Exchange proposes to amend Rule 10 General 8, Section 1(c) as follows. First, the Exchange proposes to delete the forward slash and acronym "TBD" ("/TBD") in all instances where that acronym appears in Rule General 8, Section 1(c). Next, the Exchange proposes to insert, in the footnote designated with a single asterisk ("*"), the following sentence: "All installation and ongoing monthly fees depicted for these power circuits options apply to both NY11-4 and NY11-5." The Exchange believes these proposed changes are appropriate to remove obsolete text as

SR-ISE-2026-15 Page 6 of 27 Next, the Exchange proposes ongoing monthly fees for Extension Area Power Circuit Offerings in NY11-5 that are equal to the ongoing monthly fees established for the corresponding power circuit offerings in NY11-4. The ongoing monthly fee for the Phase 1 20 11 amp 240 volt power circuit offering in NY11-4 is $2,640.00. Accordingly, the Exchange proposes to establish an ongoing monthly fee of $2,640.00 for the identical Phase 1 20 amp 240 volt power circuit offering in NY11-5. The ongoing monthly fee for the Phase 1 32 amp 240 12 volt power circuit offering in NY11-4 is $4,224.00. The Exchange therefore proposes to establish an ongoing monthly fee of $4,224.00 for the identical power circuit offering in NY11- 5. The ongoing monthly fee for the Phase 1 40 amp 240 volt power circuit offering in NY11-4 13 is $5,280.00. The Exchange thus proposes an ongoing monthly fee of $5,280.00 for the identical power circuit offering in NY11-5. The ongoing monthly fee for the Phase 3 20 amp 415 volt 14 power circuit offering in NY11-4 is $7,906.58. Accordingly, the Exchange proposes an ongoing monthly fee of $7,906.58 for the identical power circuit offering in NY11-5. Finally, the 15 ongoing monthly fee for the Phase 3 32 amp 415 volt power circuit offering in NY11-4 is $12,650.53. The Exchange thus proposes an ongoing monthly fee of $12,650.53 for the corresponding identical power circuit offering in NY11-5. 16

well as to indicate that the fees depicted for the Extension Area Power Circuit Offerings under this subparagraph of Rule General 8, Section 1(c) apply equally to NY11-4 and NY11-5. See proposed Rule General 8, Section 1(c). 11 To effect this change, the Exchange proposes to amend Rule General 8, Section 1(c) as follows. As 12 discussed above, the Exchange proposes to insert, immediately following the conclusion of the footnote designated with an asterisk ("*"), the following sentence: "All installation fees and ongoing monthly fees depicted for these power circuit options apply to both NY11-4 and NY11-5." The Exchange believes this proposed change is appropriate to indicate that the fees depicted for these power circuit options--which currently apply only to NY11-4--would apply equally to NY11-4 and NY11-5. See supra note 10 and accompanying text. 13 See supra note 10 and accompanying text. 14 See supra note 10 and accompanying text. 15 See supra note 10 and accompanying text. 16

SR-ISE-2026-15 Page 7 of 27 The Exchange believes proposing installation fees as well as ongoing monthly fees for Extension Area Power Circuit Offerings in NY11-5 that are the same in amount and frequency as corresponding fees for Extension Area Power Circuit Offerings in NY11-4 is reasonable because the offered power circuit options are the same in terms of featured power capabilities and limitations as those in NY11-4. The Exchange is merely making those identical offerings available in NY11-5.

Fees for Power Distribution Unit Options: NY11-5

As a convenience to its customers, the Exchange recently introduced certain power distribution units ("PDUs") in NY11-5: Specifically, the Exchange introduced the following 17 18 PDUs in NY11-5: Phase 1, Phase 3, as well as a switch monitored PDU add on ("Switch 19 Monitored PDU Add On") (collectively, "Extension Area PDUs"). The Exchange now 20 proposes to establish fees for such Extension Area PDUs in NY11-5. Specifically, the Exchange proposes establishing an installation fee as well as an ongoing monthly fee for Extension Area PDUs in NY11-5 that are equal in amount to the corresponding installation and ongoing monthly fees for the same Extension Area PDUs in NY11-4. First, the Exchange proposes installation fees for Extension Area PDUs in NY11-5 that are equal in amount to corresponding installation fees established for the same service in NY11-

  1. Current installation fees for Extension Area PDUs in NY11-4 are as follows: $4,100 for Phase

PDUs are devices fitted with multiple outputs designed to distribute electric power. 17

See SR-ISE-2026-12, supra note 3; Rule General 8, Section 1(d). Phase 1 PDUs are compatible with the 19 following power options: Phase 1 20 amp 240 volt, Phase 1 32 amp 240 volt, and Phase 1 40 amp 240 volt. Phase 3 PDUs are compatible with the following power options: Phase 3 20 amp 415 volt and Phase 3 32 amp 415 volt. Phase 1 and Phase 3 are available in NY11 and NY11-4. Phase 3 PDUs provide greater power density than Phase 1 PDUs by delivering power over three wires as opposed to one wire. See Rule General 8, Section, 1(d). 20

SR-ISE-2026-15 Page 8 of 27 1, $5,260 for Phase 3, and $2,000 for the Switch Monitored PDU Add On. Accordingly, the 21 Exchange proposes the following power installation fees for NY11-5: $4,100 for Phase 1, $5,260 for Phase 3, and $2,000 for the Switch Monitored PDU Add On. 22 Second, the Exchange proposes ongoing monthly fees for Extension Area PDUs in NY11-5 that are equal in amount to corresponding ongoing monthly fees established for the same services in NY11-4. The Exchange does not charge an ongoing monthly fee for such Extension Area PDUs in NY11-4. Accordingly, the Exchange proposes to provide that the 23 ongoing monthly fee for Extension Area PDUs in NY11-5 is $0. 24

reasonable because they are identical to established fees for the corresponding Extension Area PDUs offered in NY11-4, which offer the same technological features, capacities, and limitations as those being offered in NY11-5. The Exchange notes that, as in NY11-4, the proposed fees for Extension Area PDUs in NY11-5 include a primary and redundant PDU. As such, Extension Area PDU fees for both NY11-4 and NY11-5 cover a pair of PDUs. In addition, customers using a Phase 1 or Phase 3 PDU provided by the Exchange have the ability to upgrade or downgrade between amperage levels without replacing the PDU, by a simple upgrade of the facility cord and a receptacle update. The Exchange notes that the offered Extension Area PDUs

See proposed Rule General 8, Section 1(d). To effect this change, the Exchange proposes to amend Rule 22 General 8, Section 1(d) as follows. The Exchange proposes to amend the footnote designated with a single asterisk ("*") to insert, immediately after "NY11-4" in the first full sentence of that footnote, the following: "and NY11-5." The Exchange then proposes to delete, from the second sentence in that footnote, the word "only." Finally, the Exchange proposes to delete the final sentence in that footnote. As proposed, the Exchange would thus delete the words "Fees for NY11-5 have yet to be established." See proposed Rule General 8, Section 1(d).

See supra note 22 and accompanying text; proposed Rule General 8, Section 1(d). 24

SR-ISE-2026-15 Page 9 of 27 are optional, and that customers may choose to provide their own PDUs as appropriate for their power choices.

Implementation

Although the timing is subject to change, the Exchange anticipates providing access to 25 the proposed offerings in NY11-5 on or about April 1, 2026. Customer orders will not be fee liable until customers are provided access to the space for their immediate use in connection with their data center operations. 26

  1. Statutory Basis The Exchange believes that its proposal is consistent with Section 6(b) of the Act, in 27 general, and furthers the objectives of Sections 6(b)(4) and 6(b)(5) of the Act, in particular, in 28 that it provides for the equitable allocation of reasonable dues, fees and other charges among members and issuers and other persons using any facility, and is not designed to permit unfair discrimination between customers, issuers, brokers, or dealers. The Exchange believes that its proposal to establish fees for extended connectivity services in NY11-5, including those for a Cabinet Offering, Extension Area Power Circuit Offerings, and Extension Area PDUs, is reasonable. The Exchange believes that the proposed installation fee for the Cabinet Offering in NY11-5 is reasonable because, as discussed above, the proposed fee is equivalent in all respects to established fees for the corresponding cabinet offering in expansion area NY11-4, which

The Exchange will announce modifications to the proposed timing via the Nasdaq Customer Portal, which 25 is the web portal used for order and inventory management of colocation services, and email communication to all colocation customers. Charging customers once access is provided is consistent with current practice and allows customers to set 26 up equipment and begin using power. 15 U.S.C. 78f(b). 27 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(4) and (5). 28

SR-ISE-2026-15 Page 10 of 27 offerings feature substantially identical power capacities and limitations as those in NY11-5. The Exchange is merely extending the availability of that Cabinet offering at the proposed fees to NY11-5. For extension areas NY11-4 and NY11-5, these higher voltage power options are designed to meet the growing demand for greater power and capacity options across the data center. The Exchange believes that the proposed ongoing monthly fees for Extension Area Power Circuit Offerings in NY11-5, which are the same in amount and frequency as corresponding fees for Extension Area Power Circuit Offerings in NY11-4 are reasonable because the two services offer technologically similar features in terms of offered power capacities and limitations. The Exchange is merely extending the availability of such Extension Power Circuit Offerings at the proposed fees to NY11-5.

reasonable because they offer identical features as those in NY11-4 and the Exchange is proposing fees for Extension Area PDUs in NY11-5 that are the same in all respects as those for Extension Area PDUs in NY11-4. The Exchange is merely extending the availability of such Extension Area PDUs at the proposed fees to NY11-5. The Exchange notes that, as in NY11-4, the proposed fees for Extension Area PDUs in NY11-5 include a primary and redundant PDU. In addition, customers using a Phase 1 or Phase 3 PDU provided by the Exchange have the ability to upgrade or downgrade between amperage levels without replacing the PDU. Finally, the Exchange notes that the offered Extension Area PDUs are optional, and that customers may choose to provide their own PDUs as appropriate for their power choices.

SR-ISE-2026-15 Page 11 of 27 The Exchange believes that the proposed fee changes are not unfairly discriminatory because the proposed NY11-5 Cabinet fees, Extension Area Power Circuit Offerings in NY11-5, and Extension Area PDUs for NY11-5 are available to and assessed uniformly across all market participants. In addition, all customers have the choice of whether to colocate with the Exchange.

  1. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Burden on Competition
    The Exchange does not believe that the proposed rule change will impose any burden on competition not necessary or appropriate in furtherance of the purposes of the Act. Nothing in the proposal burdens inter-market competition because approval of the proposal does not impose any burden on the ability of other exchanges to compete. The Exchange operates in a highly competitive market in which market participants can determine whether or not to connect to the Exchange based on the value received compared to the cost of doing so. Indeed, market participants have numerous alternative exchanges that they may participate on and direct their order flow, as well as off-exchange venues, where competitive products are available for trading. Nothing in the proposal burdens intra-market competition because the NY11-5 Cabinets, Extension Area Power Circuit Offerings and Extension Area PDU optionality in NY11-5 are available to any customer under the same fees as any other customer, and any customer that wishes to order cabinets, power and PDUs can do so on a non-discriminatory basis.

    for, the Proposed Rule Change

  3. Purpose
    The Exchange's data center in Carteret, NJ consists of the original data center hall ("NY11"), the expanded data center area ("NY11-4") as well as a future expanded data center area ("NY11-5"). The Exchange filed a proposal to expand its colocation services by making available in NY11-5 certain colocation offerings that were previously available only in NY11-4. 3 This proposed rule change seeks to establish fees for such expanded colocation services. Fees for Cabinet Offering in NY11-5 The Exchange filed a proposal to introduce in NY11-5 the cabinet option that was previously only available in NY11-4 ("Cabinet"). The Exchange now proposes to establish an 4 installation fee for that Cabinet offering in NY11-5. First, the Exchange proposes an installation fee for that Cabinet offering in NY11-5. Consistent with corresponding installation fees established for NY11-4, the Exchange proposes

See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 105024 (Mar. 17, 2026), 91 FR 13656 (Mar. 20, 2026) (SR-ISE-3 2026-12).

SR-ISE-2026-15 Page 15 of 27 an installation fee of $5,940 for the Cabinet offering in NY11-5. Consistent with the approach 5 in NY11 and NY11-4, the Exchange is not proposing an ongoing monthly fee for the proposed Cabinet offering in NY11-5. 6 The Exchange believes that establishing an installation fee for the Cabinet offering in NY11-5 that is equivalent to the corresponding installation fee for the same Cabinet option in NY11-4 is appropriate because NY11-4 and NY11-5 are data center expansion areas that share similar infrastructure features and the proposed Cabinet offering for NY11-5 in particular offers the same features as those of the corresponding cabinet option in NY11-4. Thus, the Exchange is establishing NY11-5 fees that mirror the fees for the corresponding cabinet option in NY11-4. Fees for Cabinet Power Options in NY11-5 Rule General 8, Section 1(c) provides that the following (five) cabinet power options are available exclusively in NY11-4: Phase 1 20 amp 240 volt, Phase 1 32 amp 240 volt, Phase 1 40 amp 240 volt, Phase 3 20 amp 415 volt, and Phase 3 32 amp 415 volt (collectively, "Extension Area Power Circuit Offerings"). The Exchange filed a proposal to introduce such Extension 7 Area Power Circuit Offerings (which were previously available only in NY11-4) in NY11-5. 8 The Exchange now proposes to establish fees for Extension Area Power Circuit Offerings in NY11-5. In alignment with established fees for NY11-4, the Exchange proposes installation and

To effect this change, the Exchange proposes to amend Rule General 8, Section 1(a) as follows. The 5 Exchange proposes to delete, from entry applicable to the Cabinet offering under the column titled "NY11- 4/-5 Installation Fee" the forward slash and acronym "/TBD." The Exchange further proposes to insert, immediately following the only sentence in the current footnote designated with a dagger, the following sentence: "Fees depicted hereunder apply to NY11-4 and NY11-5." The Exchange believes the proposed changes are appropriate to indicate that the fees shown on Rule General 8, Section 1(a) for the Cabinet offering under the column titled "NY11-4/-5" apply equally to Cabinets in NY11-4 as well as NY11-5. See proposed Rule General 8, Section 1(a). See proposed Rule General 8, Section 1(a). 6

SR-ISE-2026-15 Page 16 of 27 ongoing monthly fees for Extension Area Power Circuit Offerings in NY11-5 that are identical to the fees applicable to the corresponding power circuits in NY11-4 as follows. First, the Exchange proposes to establish power installation fees for Extension Area Power Circuit Offerings in NY11-5 that are equivalent to corresponding power installation fees for the corresponding power circuit offerings in NY11-4. Installation fees for the various cabinet power options in NY11-4 are as follows: $3,600 for all Phase 1 options and $4,560 for Phase 3 options. Accordingly, proposed installation fees for Extension Area Power Circuit Offerings in 9 NY11-5 are as follows: $3,600 for all Phase 1 options and $4,560 for Phase 3 options. 10 Next, the Exchange proposes ongoing monthly fees for Extension Area Power Circuit Offerings in NY11-5 that are equal to the ongoing monthly fees established for the corresponding power circuit offerings in NY11-4. The ongoing monthly fee for the Phase 1 20 11 amp 240 volt power circuit offering in NY11-4 is $2,640.00. Accordingly, the Exchange proposes to establish an ongoing monthly fee of $2,640.00 for the identical Phase 1 20 amp 240 volt power circuit offering in NY11-5. The ongoing monthly fee for the Phase 1 32 amp 240 12 volt power circuit offering in NY11-4 is $4,224.00. The Exchange therefore proposes to

See proposed Rule General 8, Section 1(c). To effect this change, the Exchange proposes to amend Rule 10 General 8, Section 1(c) as follows. First, the Exchange proposes to delete the forward slash and acronym "TBD" ("/TBD") in all instances where that acronym appears in Rule General 8, Section 1(c). Next, the Exchange proposes to insert, in the footnote designated with a single asterisk (""), the following sentence: "All installation and ongoing monthly fees depicted for these power circuits options apply to both NY11-4 and NY11-5." The Exchange believes these proposed changes are appropriate to remove obsolete text as well as to indicate that the fees depicted for the Extension Area Power Circuit Offerings under this subparagraph of Rule General 8, Section 1(c) apply equally to NY11-4 and NY11-5. See proposed Rule General 8, Section 1(c). 11 To effect this change, the Exchange proposes to amend Rule General 8, Section 1(c) as follows. As 12 discussed above, the Exchange proposes to insert, immediately following the conclusion of the footnote designated with an asterisk (""), the following sentence: "All installation fees and ongoing monthly fees depicted for these power circuit options apply to both NY11-4 and NY11-5." The Exchange believes this proposed change is appropriate to indicate that the fees depicted for these power circuit options--which currently apply only to NY11-4--would apply equally to NY11-4 and NY11-5.

SR-ISE-2026-15 Page 17 of 27 establish an ongoing monthly fee of $4,224.00 for the identical power circuit offering in NY11- 5. The ongoing monthly fee for the Phase 1 40 amp 240 volt power circuit offering in NY11-4 13 is $5,280.00. The Exchange thus proposes an ongoing monthly fee of $5,280.00 for the identical power circuit offering in NY11-5. The ongoing monthly fee for the Phase 3 20 amp 415 volt 14 power circuit offering in NY11-4 is $7,906.58. Accordingly, the Exchange proposes an ongoing monthly fee of $7,906.58 for the identical power circuit offering in NY11-5. Finally, the 15 ongoing monthly fee for the Phase 3 32 amp 415 volt power circuit offering in NY11-4 is $12,650.53. The Exchange thus proposes an ongoing monthly fee of $12,650.53 for the corresponding identical power circuit offering in NY11-5. 16 The Exchange believes proposing installation fees as well as ongoing monthly fees for Extension Area Power Circuit Offerings in NY11-5 that are the same in amount and frequency as corresponding fees for Extension Area Power Circuit Offerings in NY11-4 is reasonable because the offered power circuit options are the same in terms of featured power capabilities and limitations as those in NY11-4. The Exchange is merely making those identical offerings available in NY11-5. Fees for Power Distribution Unit Options: NY11-5 As a convenience to its customers, the Exchange recently introduced certain power distribution units ("PDUs") in NY11-5: Specifically, the Exchange introduced the following 17 18

See supra note 10 and accompanying text. 13 See supra note 10 and accompanying text. 14 See supra note 10 and accompanying text. 15 See supra note 10 and accompanying text. 16 PDUs are devices fitted with multiple outputs designed to distribute electric power. 17

SR-ISE-2026-15 Page 18 of 27 PDUs in NY11-5: Phase 1, Phase 3, as well as a switch monitored PDU add on ("Switch 19 Monitored PDU Add On") (collectively, "Extension Area PDUs"). The Exchange now 20 proposes to establish fees for such Extension Area PDUs in NY11-5. Specifically, the Exchange proposes establishing an installation fee as well as an ongoing monthly fee for Extension Area PDUs in NY11-5 that are equal in amount to the corresponding installation and ongoing monthly fees for the same Extension Area PDUs in NY11-4. First, the Exchange proposes installation fees for Extension Area PDUs in NY11-5 that are equal in amount to corresponding installation fees established for the same service in NY11-

  1. Current installation fees for Extension Area PDUs in NY11-4 are as follows: $4,100 for Phase 1, $5,260 for Phase 3, and $2,000 for the Switch Monitored PDU Add On. Accordingly, the 21 Exchange proposes the following power installation fees for NY11-5: $4,100 for Phase 1, $5,260 for Phase 3, and $2,000 for the Switch Monitored PDU Add On. 22 Second, the Exchange proposes ongoing monthly fees for Extension Area PDUs in NY11-5 that are equal in amount to corresponding ongoing monthly fees established for the same services in NY11-4. The Exchange does not charge an ongoing monthly fee for such

See SR-ISE-2026-12, supra note 3; Rule General 8, Section 1(d). Phase 1 PDUs are compatible with the 19 following power options: Phase 1 20 amp 240 volt, Phase 1 32 amp 240 volt, and Phase 1 40 amp 240 volt. Phase 3 PDUs are compatible with the following power options: Phase 3 20 amp 415 volt and Phase 3 32 amp 415 volt. Phase 1 and Phase 3 are available in NY11 and NY11-4. Phase 3 PDUs provide greater power density than Phase 1 PDUs by delivering power over three wires as opposed to one wire. See Rule General 8, Section, 1(d). 20

See proposed Rule General 8, Section 1(d). To effect this change, the Exchange proposes to amend Rule 22 General 8, Section 1(d) as follows. The Exchange proposes to amend the footnote designated with a single asterisk ("*") to insert, immediately after "NY11-4" in the first full sentence of that footnote, the following: "and NY11-5." The Exchange then proposes to delete, from the second sentence in that footnote, the word "only." Finally, the Exchange proposes to delete the final sentence in that footnote. As proposed, the Exchange would thus delete the words "Fees for NY11-5 have yet to be established." See proposed Rule General 8, Section 1(d).

SR-ISE-2026-15 Page 19 of 27 Extension Area PDUs in NY11-4. Accordingly, the Exchange proposes to provide that the 23 ongoing monthly fee for Extension Area PDUs in NY11-5 is $0. 24

reasonable because they are identical to established fees for the corresponding Extension Area PDUs offered in NY11-4, which offer the same technological features, capacities, and limitations as those being offered in NY11-5. The Exchange notes that, as in NY11-4, the proposed fees for Extension Area PDUs in NY11-5 include a primary and redundant PDU. As such, Extension Area PDU fees for both NY11-4 and NY11-5 cover a pair of PDUs. In addition, customers using a Phase 1 or Phase 3 PDU provided by the Exchange have the ability to upgrade or downgrade between amperage levels without replacing the PDU, by a simple upgrade of the facility cord and a receptacle update. The Exchange notes that the offered Extension Area PDUs are optional, and that customers may choose to provide their own PDUs as appropriate for their power choices. Implementation Although the timing is subject to change, the Exchange anticipates providing access to 25 the proposed offerings in NY11-5 on or about April 1, 2026. Customer orders will not be fee liable until customers are provided access to the space for their immediate use in connection with their data center operations. 26

See supra note 22 and accompanying text; proposed Rule General 8, Section 1(d). 24 The Exchange will announce modifications to the proposed timing via the Nasdaq Customer Portal, which 25 is the web portal used for order and inventory management of colocation services, and email communication to all colocation customers. Charging customers once access is provided is consistent with current practice and allows customers to set 26 up equipment and begin using power.

  1. Statutory Basis The Exchange believes that its proposal is consistent with Section 6(b) of the Act, in 27 general, and furthers the objectives of Sections 6(b)(4) and 6(b)(5) of the Act, in particular, in 28 that it provides for the equitable allocation of reasonable dues, fees and other charges among members and issuers and other persons using any facility, and is not designed to permit unfair discrimination between customers, issuers, brokers, or dealers. The Exchange believes that its proposal to establish fees for extended connectivity services in NY11-5, including those for a Cabinet Offering, Extension Area Power Circuit Offerings, and Extension Area PDUs, is reasonable. The Exchange believes that the proposed installation fee for the Cabinet Offering in NY11-5 is reasonable because, as discussed above, the proposed fee is equivalent in all respects to established fees for the corresponding cabinet offering in expansion area NY11-4, which offerings feature substantially identical power capacities and limitations as those in NY11-5. The Exchange is merely extending the availability of that Cabinet offering at the proposed fees to NY11-5. For extension areas NY11-4 and NY11-5, these higher voltage power options are designed to meet the growing demand for greater power and capacity options across the data center. The Exchange believes that the proposed ongoing monthly fees for Extension Area Power Circuit Offerings in NY11-5, which are the same in amount and frequency as corresponding fees for Extension Area Power Circuit Offerings in NY11-4 are reasonable

reasonable because they offer identical features as those in NY11-4 and the Exchange is proposing fees for Extension Area PDUs in NY11-5 that are the same in all respects as those for Extension Area PDUs in NY11-4. The Exchange is merely extending the availability of such Extension Area PDUs at the proposed fees to NY11-5. The Exchange notes that, as in NY11-4, the proposed fees for Extension Area PDUs in NY11-5 include a primary and redundant PDU. In addition, customers using a Phase 1 or Phase 3 PDU provided by the Exchange have the ability to upgrade or downgrade between amperage levels without replacing the PDU. Finally, the Exchange notes that the offered Extension Area PDUs are optional, and that customers may choose to provide their own PDUs as appropriate for their power choices. The Exchange believes that the proposed fee changes are not unfairly discriminatory because the proposed NY11-5 Cabinet fees, Extension Area Power Circuit Offerings in NY11-5, and Extension Area PDUs for NY11-5 are available to and assessed uniformly across all market participants. In addition, all customers have the choice of whether to colocate with the Exchange.

  1. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Burden on Competition The Exchange does not believe that the proposed rule change will impose any burden on competition not necessary or appropriate in furtherance of the purposes of the Act. Nothing in the proposal burdens inter-market competition because approval of the proposal does not impose any burden on the ability of other exchanges to compete. The

SR-ISE-2026-15 Page 22 of 27 Exchange operates in a highly competitive market in which market participants can determine whether or not to connect to the Exchange based on the value received compared to the cost of doing so. Indeed, market participants have numerous alternative exchanges that they may participate on and direct their order flow, as well as off-exchange venues, where competitive products are available for trading. Nothing in the proposal burdens intra-market competition because the NY11-5 Cabinets, Extension Area Power Circuit Offerings and Extension Area PDU optionality in NY11-5 are available to any customer under the same fees as any other customer, and any customer that wishes to order cabinets, power and PDUs can do so on a non-discriminatory basis.

  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.

  2. Date of Effectiveness of the Proposed Rule Change and Timing for Commission Action
    The foregoing rule change has become effective pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A)(ii) of the Act. 29 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: (i) necessary or appropriate in the public interest; (ii) for the protection of investors; or (iii) otherwise in furtherance of the purposes of the Act.
