## Abstract

The Securities and Exchange Commission ("Commission") is repealing its options trade-through disclosure rule under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, which requires a broker-dealer to disclose to a customer when the customer's order for listed options has been executed at a price inferior to a better published quote, unless the order was executed as part of a block trade or the transaction was affected on a market that participates in an intermarket options linkage plan featuring adequate trade-through protections. The Commission has determined that recent amendments to the Options Intermarket Linkage Plan have satisfied the regulatory goals that the options trade-through disclosure rule was designed to address, and is therefore repealing the rule as unnecessary.
