facilitate a Trading Halt Auction if a security has not reopened 
following a Level 1 or Level 2 trading halt due to extraordinary market 
volatility under Rule 7.12 (``MWCB Halt'') by 3:30 p.m.; (2) widen the 
Auction Collar for an Exchange-facilitated Trading Halt Auction 
following an MWCB Halt; (3) provide that certain DMM Interest would not
