15See supra note 7. 

16For purposes only of waiving the 30-day 

operative delay, the Commission has also 

considered the proposed rule’s impact on 

efficiency, competition, and capital formation. See 

15 U.S.C. 78c(f). 17 17 CFR 200.30–3(a)(12). 

C. Self-Regulatory Organization’s 

Statement on Comments on the 

Proposed Rule Change Received From 

Members, Participants, or Others 

Written comments were neither 

solicited nor 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 from the date on 

which it was filed, or such shorter time 

as the Commission may designate, it has 

become effective pursuant to Section 

19(b)(3)(A)(iii) of the Act 10 and Rule 

19b–4(f)(6) thereunder.11

A proposed rule change filed under 

Rule 19b–4(f)(6) 12 normally does not 

become operative for 30 days after the 

date of the filing. However, pursuant to 

Rule 19b–4(f)(6)(iii),13 the Commission 

may designate a shorter time if such 

action is consistent with the protection 

of investors and the public interest. Rule 

19b–4(f)(6)(iii) also requires a selfregulatory organization to provide the 

Commission with written notice of its 

intent to file a proposed rule change, 

along with a brief description and text 

of 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 asked the 

Commission to waive both the fivebusiness day pre-filing requirement and 

the 30-day operative delay to allow the 

Exchange to provide an immediate 

update regarding the implementation of 

the functionality, which would 

eliminate potential confusion regarding 

the implementation of the proposal. The 

Exchange states that delaying the 

implementation of the functionality will 

allow the Exchange to reprioritize its 

software delivery and release schedule 

and provide the Exchange additional 

time to plan and implement the 

functionality. 

The Commission waives the fivebusiness day pre-filing requirement. In 

addition, the Commission finds that it is 

consistent with the protection of 

investors and the public interest to 

waive the 30-day operative delay. As 

discussed above, the Exchange amended 

its rules in 2019 to allow the component 

legs of a complex order to execute at a 

price that is outside the NBBO when 

they execute against interest on the 

Exchange’s Simple Order Book.14 The 

Exchange has delayed the 

implementation of this functionality 

several times, most recently until the 

third quarter of 2023.15 Waiver of the 

operative delay will allow the Exchange 

to immediately notify its members of the 

delay in implementing the functionality, 

which could help to avoid confusion 

regarding its implementation. Therefore, 

the Commission waives the 30-day 

operative delay and designates the 

proposal operative upon filing.16

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.
