Section 12(f) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 permits NASDAQ to extend “unlisted trading privileges” (UTP) for its listed securities. Through UTP, other U.S. exchanges and markets are able to quote and trade issues listed on the NASDAQ Stock Market. Under the UTP Plan, all U.S. exchanges that quote and trade NASDAQ-listed securities must provide their data to a centralized securities information processor (SIP) for data consolidation and dissemination. NASDAQ currently serves as the SIP for the UTP Plan.
