Designation of a Longer Period for 

Commission Action on a Proposed 

Rule Change To Amend the 

Exchange’s Rules for the Listing and 

Trading on the Exchange of Options 

Settling to the RealVolTM SPY Index 

March 18, 2015. 

On January 21, 2015, BOX Options 

Exchange LLC (‘‘BOX’’ or the 

‘‘Exchange’’) filed with the Securities 

and Exchange Commission 

(‘‘Commission’’), pursuant to Section 

19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act 

of 1934 (‘‘Act’’) 1 and Rule 19b–4 

thereunder,2 a proposed rule change to 

amend BOX Rules 6010, 6040, 6090, 

and 10120 to allow for the listing and 

trading on the Exchange of options 

settling to the RealVolTM SPY Index, on 

a twelve-month pilot basis. The 

proposed rule change was published for 

comment in the Federal Register on 

February 5, 2015.3 The Commission has 

received one comment letter on the 

proposed rule change.4

Section 19(b)(2) of the Act 5 provides 

that, within 45 days of the publication 

of notice of the filing of a proposed rule 

change, or within such longer period up 

to 90 days as the Commission may 

designate if it finds such longer period 

to be appropriate and publishes its 

reasons for so finding or as to which the 

self-regulatory organization consents, 

the Commission shall either approve the 

proposed rule change, disapprove the 

proposed rule change, or institute 

proceedings to determine whether the 

proposed rule change should be 

disapproved. The Commission is 

extending this 45-day time period. The 

Commission finds that it is appropriate 

to designate a longer period within

rule change so that it has sufficient time 

to consider the proposed rule change. 

Accordingly, the Commission, 

pursuant to Section 19(b)(2) of the Act,6

SAFEGUARDS: 

All users are given cyber security 

awareness training which covers the 

procedures for handling Sensitive but 

Unclassified information, including 

personally identifiable information (PII). 

Annual refresher training is mandatory. 

In addition, all Foreign Service and 

Civil Service employees and those 

Locally Employed Staff (LES) who 

handle PII are required to take the 

Foreign Service Institute distance 

learning course instructing employees 

on privacy and security requirements, 

including the rules of behavior for 

handling PII and the potential 

consequences if it is handled 

improperly. Before being granted access

Remote access to the Department of 

State network from non-Department 

owned systems is authorized only to 

unclassified systems and only through a 

Department-approved access program. 

Remote access to the network is 

configured with the Office of

include but are not limited to two-factor 

authentication and a time-out function. 

All Department of State employees

personnel. Access to computerized files 

is password-protected and under the 

direct supervision of the system 

manager. The system manager has the 

capability of printing audit trails of 

access from the computer media, 

thereby permitting regular and ad hoc 

monitoring of computer usage. When it 

is determined that a user no longer 

needs access, the user account is 

disabled.

Retention of these records varies 

depending upon the specific record 

involved. They are retired or destroyed 

in accordance with published record
