Current Order Modifier: PO
Currently the Exchange offers the Primary Only (PO) order type, which is a market or limit
order that is routed to the primary, listing market, without sweeping the NYSE Arca Order
Book. The Exchange currently restricts PO Orders to participation in the primary, listing
market’s opening.

New Order Modifier: PO+
The new PO+ order type is an enhancement to the PO order type that allows Users to
route to the primary, listing market during all of the primary market’s eligible trading
sessions. The new PO+ order can be entered as an Immediate-or-Cancel (IOC) order, or
as a Day Order that will remain open until the order is either executed or cancelled.
Additionally, the new PO+ order type supports reserve orders.

Pricing
NASDAQ recently announced plans to alter their DOTD routing to mimic their DOTA
routing beginning on October 1. The PO+ Order will allow customers to continue to
directly route both liquidity adding and liquidity removing orders to the NYSE and thus
benefit from the NYSE's favorable price structure and liquidity.

Pending filing with the SEC, the rates for the PO+ Order will be as follows:
• Fee for removing liquidity from NYSE = $0.0008 per share
• Free to add liquidity on the NYSE
• Fee for NYSE market at-the-close and limit at-the-close orders = $0.0004 per
share
• Free to trade at NYSE Open (via PO Order only)
• PO+ volume will count toward the ADV calculation for NYSE Arca tiers even
though shares do not attempt to execute against NYSE Arca
• Basic rates apply for removing liquidity from all other away market centers,
excluding NYSE

FIX Liquidity Tags
An executed PO+ order becomes either Liquidity Adding or Liquidity Reducing, and
marked as shown below. NYSE Arca customers who intend on using the upcoming PO+
designation for Primary Only (PO) Orders will need to verify that their FIX liquidity values
