62866 Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 176 / Wednesday, September 13, 2023 / Notices 

8 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A). 

9 17 CFR 240.19b–4(f)(6). In addition, Rule 19b– 

4(f)(6) requires a self-regulatory organization to give 

the Commission written notice of its intent to file 

the proposed rule change at least five business days 

prior to the date of filing of the proposed rule 

change, or such shorter time as designated by the 

Commission. The Exchange has satisfied this 

requirement. 10 17 CFR 200.30–3(a)(12). 

because the phrase is not necessary as 

the subsequent clause makes clear 

which cPBBO will be referenced. 

Technical Amendments 

The Exchange’s proposal to make two 

technical amendments within Options 

4A, Options Index Rules, are consistent 

with the Act as the amendments to 

Options 4A, Sections 6 and 12 are nonsubstantive. 

B. Self-Regulatory Organization’s 

Statement on Burden on Competition 

The Exchange does not believe that 

the proposed rule change will impose 

any burden on competition not 

necessary or appropriate in furtherance 

of the purposes of the Act. 

PIXL Entry Checks 

Phlx’s proposal to amend Options 3, 

Section 13(a)(1)–(3) to harmonize the 

language within the PIXL entry checks 

with language within GEMX’s PIM, 

ISE’s PIM, MRX’s PIM and BX’s PRISM, 

without changing the substantive 

operations of these price improvement 

auctions, does not impose an undue 

burden on competition because market 

participants will be able to compare 

Phlx’s PIXL entry checks with similar 

mechanisms on Nasdaq affiliated 

markets. 

Amending Options 3, Section 

13(a)(1)–(3) to specify the entry checks 

that are utilized by Phlx’s System today 

to initiate a PIXL does not impose an 

undue burden on competition because 

these checks will apply uniformly to 

any order entered into PIXL. Further, 

the proposed amendments will add 

transparency to the current System 

functionality as the various System 

checks are noted for each side of the 

PIXL Order. Further, the Exchange is 

not substantively amending the current 

System functionality. 

Auction Process 

The Exchange’s proposal to amend 

Options 3, Section 13(b)(4) to replace 

references to ‘‘Limit Order,’’ ‘‘order’’ 

and ‘‘orders’’ within Options 3, Section 

13(b)(4) with the word ‘‘interest’’ does 

not impose an undue burden on 

competition because all quotes will 

participate in a PIXL as an unrelated 

order. The clarification will make the 

rule text transparent. 

Amending Options 3, Section 13(b)(6) 

to remove the term ‘‘then-existing’’ from 

the paragraph does not impose an 

undue burden on competition because 

the phrase is not necessary as the 

subsequent clause makes clear which 

cPBBO will be referenced. 

Technical Amendments 

The Exchange’s proposal to make two 

technical amendments within Options 

4A, Options Index Rules, do not impose 

an undue burden on competition as the 

amendments to Options 4A, Sections 6 

and 12 are non-substantive. 

C. Self-Regulatory Organization’s 

Statement on Comments on the 

Proposed Rule Change Received From 

Members, Participants, or Others 

No written comments were either 

solicited or received. 

III. Date of Effectiveness of the 

Proposed Rule Change and Timing for 

Commission Action 

Because the foregoing proposed rule 

change does not (i) significantly affect 

the protection of investors or the public 

interest; (ii) impose any significant 

burden on competition; and (iii) become 

operative for 30 days after the date of 

the filing, or such shorter time as the 

Commission may designate, it has 

become effective pursuant to section 

19(b)(3)(A) of the Act 8 and Rule 19b– 

4(f)(6) thereunder.9

At any time within 60 days of the 

filing of the proposed rule change, the 

Commission summarily may 

temporarily suspend such rule change if 

it appears to the Commission that such 

action is necessary or appropriate in the 

public interest, for the protection of 

investors, or otherwise in furtherance of 

the purposes of the Act. If the 

Commission takes such action, the 

Commission shall institute proceedings 

to determine whether the proposed rule 

should be approved or disapproved. 

IV. Solicitation of Comments 

Interested persons are invited to 

submit written data, views, and 

arguments concerning the foregoing, 

including whether the proposed rule 

change is consistent with the Act.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Small 

Business Investment Act authorizes 

SBA to guarantee a debenture issued by 

a Certified Development Company 

(CDC). The proceeds from each 

debenture are used to fund loans to 

eligible small business concerns (‘‘504 

loans’’). 15 U.S.C. 697(a). The Small 

Business Act and the Small Business 

Investment Act mandate that all 

guaranteed loans provided by the SBA 

to small business concerns (SBCs) must 

have a reasonable assurance of ability to 

repay. See 15 U.S.C. 636(a)(6) and 

687(f); see also 13 CFR 120.150. The 

information collections SBA Form 1244 

is being updated for regulatory and 

Standard Operating Procedure 50 10 7 

changes along with conforming the 

Form more in alignment with Form 

1919, the 7(a) program information 

collection which was recently updated. 

SBA has updated borrower certifications 

and proposes streamlining the Form 

1244 based on regulatory and SOP 

updates as well as public comments 

from trade associations representing the 

504 industry. 

Additionally, in accordance to the 

National Defense Authorization Act 

(NDAA)/Small Business Runway 

Extension Act (SBREA) for Fiscal Year 

2022 rule, the SBA will use its 

administrative discretion to permit loan 

applicants to choose between 3 years 

and 5 years for receipts-based size 

standards, and from 12 months to 24 

months for employee-based size 

standards. (15 U.S.C. 632(a)(2)) 

Solicitation of Public Comments 

SBA is requesting comments on (a) 

Whether the collection of information is 

necessary for the agency to properly 

perform its functions; (b) whether the 

burden estimates are accurate; (c) 

whether there are ways to minimize the 

burden, including through the use of 

automated techniques or other forms of 

information technology; and (d) whether 

there are ways to enhance the quality, 

utility, and clarity of the information. 

Summary of Information Collection 

OMB Control Number: 3245–0071. 

Title: Application for Section 504 

Loans. 

Form Number: SBA Form 1244. 

Description of Respondents: Small 

Business Concerns applying for a 

section 504 loan and Certified 

Development Companies. 

The information collected by this 

form is used to review the eligibility of 

the small business concern (SBC) for 

SBA financial assistance; the 

creditworthiness and repayment ability 

of the SBC; and the terms and 

conditions of the 504 loan for which the 

SBC is applying. 

SBA has established a streamlined 

loan application processing procedure 

known as the Abridged Submission 

Method (ASM). Under this process, the 

CDCs are required to collect and retain 

all exhibits to SBA Form 1244 but are 

only required to submit selective 

documents. CDCs using the non-ASM 

method are required to submit all 

documents and exhibits required for 

Form 1244. 

The burden estimates (based on the 

experience of the CDCs and SBA field 

offices) of the burden hours imposed by 

use of these forms, including exhibits, 

are as follows: 

There are 200 CDCs affected by the 

information collection. The total 

number of small business concerns that 

will annually respond to Form 1244 is 

approximately 7,119 based on the 

average submission of applications 

submitted from CDCs over the past FY 

using both the ASM and non-ASM 

methods. This is a total of 7,119 

respondents. Burden hours are 2.25 

hours for PCLP Loan and ALP Express 

Loan, 2.5 hours for ASM, and 3.5 hours 

for non-ASM submissions. 

Submission through delegated 

authority: 15 × 2.25 = 34 burden hours. 

Submission through the ASM: 5,695 × 

2.5 = 14,238 burden hours. 

Submission through non-ASM 

(standard method): 1,409 × 3.5 = 4,932 

burden hours. 

Total burden hours: 19,204.
