    Symbol Credits:

    A Tier B symbol credit per symbol of responsibility per month is awarded to Market Makers who meet their monthly performance scores and who have at least one execution during the month on their symbol of responsibility. In addition, ETF Market Makers must ensure the TSX Minimum % Time at NBBO is 90% on an assignment. For symbols with two Market Makers that meet their monthly performance scores, the Tier B symbol credit is distributed between the Market Makers according to their Contribution Scores, as described in the TSX Market Making Program Guide and in the "Monthly Market Maker Contribution Scores and Incentives" document available on the Related Links section of the TSX Trading Fee website.

    TSX DRK – Liquidity Provision Program

    TSX DRK offers two separate DRK LP programs – one applicable to ETF securities only and the second applicable to non-ETFs. TSX participating organizations/members are eligible to receive rebates for DRK liquidity provided under its or its clients' Trader IDs, where the combined passive traded volume on TSX DRK exceeds the specified % of total dark Canadian continuous traded volume (DCCV) for the month, according to the following schedule:

    Tier 1Tier 2
    Target % of DCCV For Non-ETF 2.50% 4.25%
    Target % of DCCV For ETF 8.00% 12.50%
    Per share rebate for Equities & ETF $1 - $4.99 $0.0001 $0.0002
    Per share rebate for ≥ $5 Equities & ETF $0.0002 $0.0004

    Notes

    • DCCV is calculated by TSX and is determined based on the combined continuous passive board lot trading volume that occur above or equal to $1.00, excluding intentional crosses and opening and closing auctions and occur during continuous trading hours of 09:30 – 16:00. DCCV does not include executions on debenture products.
    • DCCV includes volume executed on the following venues:
      1. TSX DRK
      2. MatchNow
      3. Nasdaq CXD
      4. Aequitas NEO-D
      5. ICX
      6. Liquidnet
    • DCCV is based on trades that occur on TSX listed securities only. Trades of TSX-listed securities on TSX DRK are used to determine whether a tier threshold is met or exceeded.
    • The execution of the undisplayed portion of iceberg orders is excluded from DCCV calculations and is not counted towards tier threshold goals or calculations.
    • Approval for an DRK LP ID Group is subject to the following general conditions:
      1. A TSX participating organizations/member may request the grouping of Trader IDs, with the exception of Trader IDs associated with a routing arrangement (RA) or a direct electronic access (DEA) arrangement with a non-registrant client;
      2. Trader IDs associated with RAs or DEA arrangements referred to in (a) may be grouped together to comprise a single DRK LP ID Group for an RA or DEA client where that RA or DEA client determines the posting destination for non-marketable orders sent through the respective Trader IDs, or otherwise where the Trader IDs are associated with the same underlying client; and
      3. Trader IDs associated with a participating organization/member and not associated with a RA or DEA client can be grouped together insofar as they represent a single line-of-business and require the approval and sign off by TSX.
    • Only the DRK LP ID Group's DRK passive traded board lot volume is used for calculating tier threshold and rebate level in the associated pricing and security tier.

    Rates are based on share volume executed, including for executions resulting from matches through Self Trade Management. Where applicable, a firm-wide net credit for Post-Open Continuous trades is first applied to offset the firm's other trading charges. Any remaining net credit is paid out to the firm.

    Rates apply to trades in equities, ETFs and any other traded products for which rates have not been otherwise specified.

    10 Rates for removing displayed order volume apply when removing both the disclosed and undisclosed portion of iceberg order volume.

    11  Rates applicable to ‘Retail' apply for client orders sent by any Trader ID identified by the Member as an ID through which orders originating from a ‘Retail Customer' (as defined by IIROC) are sent, but do not apply for any such ID that is for a ‘DEA client' (as defined in National Instrument 23- 103) unless the ‘DEA client' is a broker / dealer located in a non-Canadian jurisdiction that is acting as an "agent" for retail client order flow.

    12 Applies to any IOC/FOK marked SDL or to any pegged Dark order marked IOC or FOK when removing resting Dark liquidity. See the TMX Equities Markets Order Type and Functionality Guide for a description of pegged Dark orders.

    13 Applies to Dark Limit orders and any other Dark orders that are not marked as SDL, IOC or FOK when executing actively against resting Dark liquidity. See the TMX Equities Markets Order Type and Functionality Guide for a description of all Dark orders.

    14 Rates for providing Dark order volume apply to executions of the undisclosed portions of iceberg order volume.

    15 Rates apply to trades between two CMO+ orders. Where a trade involves a removing CMO+ order and a non-CMO+ providing Dark order, the CMO+ removing order is charged according to the CMO+ schedule and the non-CMO+ providing Dark order is charged the fee normally applicable in the circumstances for providing non-CMO+ Dark order volume.

    16 Applies to CMO+ trades between the same broker, regardless of whether the broker has marked one or both sides of the trade as anonymous.

    17 Rates apply to trades between two Conditional orders, and trades in the Conditional order book between Conditional orders and matched opted-in Dark orders. Rates related to removing and providing set forth in the table titled "TSX Post-Open Continuous Trades in Equities and Exchange Traded Funds" apply to trades in the Dark book between Dark orders and the residual portions of Conditional orders.

    18 Applies to Conditional trades between the same broker, regardless of whether the broker has marked one or both sides of the trade as anonymous.

    19 Fees waived for opening, Notes and Debentures trades. All other specialty products are billed at regular rates.

    20 For a Market Maker other than an ETF Market Maker, the first $1,000 of net monthly fee generated on trading in each of its symbols of responsibility is waived.

    21 Providing rates on symbols of responsibility are not applied to participation autofills. Participation autofills are charged at the providing rates for Displayed Order Volume as specified in the table "TSX Post-Open Continuous Trades in Equities and Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs)".

    22 Bonus Rate for providing displayed order volume for a particular assigned symbol applies when the Market Maker's passive post-open continuous traded board lot volume on TSX during the month for the symbol exceeds the monthly target, measured as a percent of Canadian post-open continuous passive board lot trading volume excluding intentional crosses (during standard continuous trading hours of 9:30 a.m. - 4:00 p.m.). The target percentages that apply for each tier during any given month are made available on the TSX website.
