IV. Commission’s Findings and Order 

Granting Accelerated Approval of 

Proposed Rule Change 

The Commission finds that the 

proposed rule change is consistent with 

the requirements of the Act and the 

rules and regulations thereunder 

applicable to a national securities 

exchange.13 In particular, the 

Commission finds that the proposed 

rule change is consistent with section 

6(b)(5) of the Act, which requires that 

the rules of an exchange be designed to 

promote just and equitable principles of 

trade, remove impediments to and 

perfect the mechanism of a free and 

open market and a national market 

system, and protect investors and the 

public interest.14 The Commission 

believes that an extension of the pilot 

program for an additional six months 

should allow the Exchange to gradually 

phase-out the AOR process and to 

continue to phase-in PCX Plus on an 

issue-by-issue basis.

Accordingly, the Commission finds 

good cause, pursuant to section 19(b)(2) 

of the Act,15 for approving the proposed 

rule change prior to the thirtieth day 

after the date of publication of notice 

thereof in the Federal Register. The 

Commission recognizes that during the 

last extension of the pilot program, PCX 

has represented that the AOR pilot 

program has been operating 

successfully. The Commission believes 

that granting accelerated approval to 

extend the pilot program for an 

additional six months will allow PCX to 

continue, without interruption, the 

existing operation of its AOR pilot.

V. Conclusion 

It is therefore ordered, pursuant to 

section 19(b)(2) of the Act,16 that the 

proposed rule change (SR–PCX–2004–

97), is hereby approved on an 

accelerated basis, as a six-month pilot, 

scheduled to expire on March 31, 2005.

For the Commission, by the Division of 

Market Regulation, pursuant to delegated 

authority.17

Assistant Secretary.
