    Section 19(b)(2) of the Act \9\ provides that, after initiating 
disapproval proceedings, the Commission shall issue an order approving 
or disapproving the proposed rule change not later than 180 days after 
the date of publication of notice of filing of the proposed rule 
change. The Commission may extend the period for issuing an order 
approving or disapproving the proposed rule change, however, by not 
more than 60 days if the Commission determines that a longer period is 
appropriate and publishes the reasons for such determination. The 
proposed rule change, as modified by Amendment No. 1, was published for 
notice and comment in the Federal Register on July 10, 2020. January 6, 
2021 is 180 days from that date, and March 7, 2021 is 240 days from 
that date.

    The Commission finds it appropriate to designate a longer period 
within which to issue an order approving or disapproving the proposed 
rule change so that it has sufficient time to consider the proposed 
rule change, as modified by Amendment No. 1. Accordingly, the 
Commission, pursuant to Section 19(b)(2) of the Act,\10\ designates 
March 7, 2021 as the date by which the Commission shall either approve 
or disapprove the proposed rule change (File No. SR-CboeBZX-2020-053), 
as modified by Amendment No. 1.
