of the Act 8 to modify the applicable 

access fee or the applicable status (i.e., 

the Temporary Membership status or 

the ITP status) is terminated. 

Accordingly, the Exchange may, and 

likely will, further adjust the proposed 

access fees in the future if the Exchange 

determines that it would be appropriate 

to do so taking into consideration lease 

rates for transferable CBOE 

memberships prevailing at that time. 

The procedural provisions of the 

CBOE Fee Schedule related to the 

assessment of each proposed access fee 

are not proposed to be changed and will 

remain the same as the current 

procedural provisions relating to the 

assessment of that access fee. 

2. Statutory Basis 

The Exchange believes that the 

proposed rule change is consistent with 

Section 6(b) of the Act,9 in general, and 

furthers the objectives of Section 6(b)(4) 

of the Act,10 in particular, in that it is 

designed to provide for the equitable 

allocation of reasonable dues, fees, and 

other charges among persons using its 

facilities. 

B. Self-Regulatory Organization’s 

Statement on Burden on Competition 

CBOE does not believe that the 

proposed rule change will impose any 

burden on competition that is not 

necessary or appropriate in furtherance 

of the purposes of the Act. 

C. Self-Regulatory Organization’s 

Statement on Comments on the 

Proposed Rule Change Received From 

Members, Participants or Others 

No written comments were solicited 

or received with respect to the proposed 

rule change. 

III. Date of Effectiveness of the 

Proposed Rule Change and Timing for 

Commission Action 

Because the foregoing rule change 

establishes or changes a due, fee, or 

other charge imposed by the Exchange, 

it has become effective pursuant to 

Section 19(b)(3)(A) of the Act 11 and 

subparagraph (f)(2) of Rule 19b–4 12

thereunder. At any time within 60 days 

of the filing of the proposed rule change, 

the Commission may summarily 

abrogate 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. 

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. 

Comments may be submitted by any of 

the following methods: 

Electronic Comments 

• Use the Commission’s Internet 

comment form (http://www.sec.gov/ 

rules/sro.shtml); or 

• Send an e-mail to rulecomments@sec.gov. Please include File

Internet Web site (http://www.sec.gov/ 

rules/sro.shtml). Copies of the

those that may be withheld from the 

public in accordance with the

available for inspection and copying in 

the Commission’s Public Reference 

Room, 100 F Street, NE., Washington, 

DC 20549, on official business days 

between the hours of 10 a.m. and 3 p.m.

information from submissions. You

DEPARTMENT OF STATE 

[Public Notice 6878] 

Notice of Meeting of a Study Group of 

the U.S. Department of State Advisory 

Committee on Private International 

Law 

A Study Group of the Department of 

State Advisory Committee on Private 

International Law (ACPIL) will hold a 

public meeting to continue the 

discussion of the treatment of IPsecured financing practices in the 

United Nations Commission on 

International Trade (UNCITRAL) Draft 

Legislative Guide on Secured 

Transactions (Guide). At the 40th 

Session of the UNCITRAL in December 

2007, it adopted a legislative guide on 

secured transactions, including 

recommendations dealing with the 

scope of the Guide as it relates to IP law 

and secured financing, as well as the 

inclusion in the commentary to the 

Guide of explanatory statements on the 

treatment of IP as secured financing. 

UNCITRAL also approved a work 

project on IP law matters as they relate 

to secured financing law. Other sessions 

for that work project were held in May 

and October of 2008 and April and 

October 2009. This is not a meeting of 

the full Advisory Committee. 

The Study Group will use this public 

meeting to continue to exchange 

thoughts on the relationship between 

secured finance and IP and how this 

matter should be addressed in the new 

draft IP annex to the Guide. The report 

of the earlier sessions of the UNCITRAL 

Working Group and the papers prepared 

by the Secretariat for the next session of 

the UNCITRAL working group can be 

obtained at http://www.uncitral.org/ 

uncitral/en/commission/ 

working_groups/ 

6Security_Interests.html. The revised 

document that will be reviewed at the 

February 8–12 session of the Working 

Group in New York is also available on 

this link. 

Time and Place: The public meeting 

will take place at the Department of 

State, Office of Private International 

Law, 2430 E Street, NW., Washington, 

DC on Wednesday, February 3, 2010, 

from 10 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. EST.

Order 12356: and Section 506 (a) of the 

Federal Records Act of 1950, as 

amended (44 U.S.C. 3101). The primary 

purpose for collecting the information is 

to assure protection of U.S. Department 

of State facilities and to allow all 

Department of State (DOS) staff to preregister single visitors or groups and 

verify the requester has escort authority. 

The information furnished is used by 

the Department of State’s Bureau of 

Diplomatic Security to enhance the 

Department’s security by tracking visitor 

traffic and to prevent security 

vulnerability. The information may be 

shared with Bureau of Diplomatic 

Security staff as a routine use, and on 

an as-needed basis with outside lawenforcement organizations as part of the 

Department’s effort to combat terrorism 

and to cooperate with law enforcement 

investigations. In addition, the 

information provided is used to better 

track, manage, and control access to 

buildings and restricted areas under the 

jurisdiction of the Department of State; 

to determine the status of individuals 

entering Department of State premises; 

and to provide data requisite to 

investigations and security reports. Data 

may be shared with other Local, State, 

and Federal law enforcement agencies. 

Failure to provide the information 

requested may result in denial of access 

to U.S. Department of State facilities.
