9 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5). 10 17 CFR 200.30–3(a)(12). 

Act,9 in particular in that it is designed 

to prevent fraudulent and manipulative 

acts and practices, to promote just and 

equitable principles of trade, to foster 

cooperation and coordination with 

persons engaged in regulating, clearing, 

settling, processing information with 

respect to, and facilitating transactions 

in securities, to remove impediments to 

and perfect the mechanism of a free and 

open market and a national market 

system, and, in general, to protect 

investors and the public interest. The 

proposed rule change is consistent with 

these requirements in that it provides an 

alternative mechanism for an 

acquisition vehicle to complete a 

transaction in a manner that minimizes 

the disruptive effect of certain 

shareholders, while maintaining 

protections which are designed to 

protect investors and the public interest 

and prevent fraudulent and 

manipulative acts and practices. 

B. Self-Regulatory Organization’s 

Statement on Burden on Competition 

Nasdaq does not believe that the 

proposed rule change will result in any 

burden on competition that is not 

necessary or appropriate in furtherance 

of the purposes of the Act, as amended.
