(May 16, 2006), 71 FR 29371 (May 22, 2006) (File 

no. SR–CBOE–2006–33) (permitting Floor Brokers 

to represent cabinet orders); Securities Exchange 

Act Release No. 55081 (January 10, 2007), 72 FR 

2317 (January 18, 2007) (File no. SR–CBOE–2007–

02) (permitting Market Makers to represent cabinet 

orders).

7 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A). 

8 17 CFR 240.19b–4(f)(6)(iii). Rule 19b–4(f)(6)(iii) 

requires the Exchange to give written notice to the 

Commission of its intent to file the proposed rule 

change at least five business days prior to filing. 

The Exchange complied with this requirement. 9 17 CFR 200.30–3(a)(12). 

similar to and consistent with Rule 6.54 

of the Chicago Board Option Exchange.4

The second purpose of this rule 

change is to make clear that Floor 

Brokers and Market Makers who enter 

into either opening or closing cabinet 

transactions may do so as long as they 

first yield priority to all corresponding 

orders in the cabinet book. Rule 6.80 

currently provides that all bids and 

offers for cabinet transactions, both 

opening and closing, must be placed 

with a Trading Official, and that 

opening orders must yield to closing 

orders in the cabinet. The Exchange 

now proposes that both opening and 

closing transactions may be represented 

by Floor Brokers and Market Makers, so 

long as they first yield priority to all 

corresponding orders in the cabinet. 

The Exchange also proposes to 

include a provision in Rule 6.80 stating 

that the rules governing cabinet trading 

do not apply to issues that trade as part 

of the Penny Pilot program. Although 

cabinet trades involve orders priced at 

$1 per option contract, the specific 

terms and conditions for cabinet trading 

are not applicable to option classes 

participating in the Penny Pilot. 

2. Statutory Basis 

The Exchange believes that the 

proposed rule change is consistent with 

Section 6(b) of the Act 5 in general, and 

furthers the objectives of Section 6(b)(5) 

of the Act 6 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 

facilitating transactions in securities, 

and to remove impediments to and 

perfect the mechanism of a free and 

open market and a national market 

system. 

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 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 

The Exchange has neither solicited 

nor received written comments on the 

proposed rule change. 

III. Date of Effectiveness of the 

Proposed Rule Change and Timing for 

Commission Action 

Because the foregoing proposed rule 

change (i) Does not significantly affect 

the protection of investors or the public 

interest; (ii) does not impose any 

significant burden on competition; and 

(iii) does not become operative for 30 

days from the date on which it was 

filed, or such shorter time as the 

Commission may designate, if 

consistent with the protection of 

investors and the public interest, the 

proposed rule change has become 

effective pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A) 

of the Act 7 and Rule 19b–4(f)(6)(iii) 

thereunder.8

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.

the following methods:
