Dear Sir:
 
    I approve of the Boston Options Exchange (BOX) and their proposal to 
help option traders get better prices and trade executions through their 
proposed "Price Improvement Period" (PIP). 

    As an individual investor in options, I have found that the professionals 
make it difficult to compete when buying and selling options.  I believe that 
PIP will even the playing field for the small investor and help defeat their 
efforts to dominate trades at the bid and ask prices given the current minimum 
option price increment.
 
    Please approve of their application(s) right away!
 
Sincerely,
Ken Peek
