The rules are there to be followed. 

If you create rule proposals with exemptions, then this allows bad actors to abuse them. This is literally rules for thee but not for me. 
It's called conflict of interest for a reason. 

Congress and the SEC have rules that prevent these conflicts then hedge funds and market makers should not be granted these exemptions. 
In other words, "NO," I do not agree with the exemptions. 
Remove them from the rule.
