VI. Accelerated Approval of Proposed 

Rule Change, as Modified by 

Amendment No. 1 

Amendment No. 1 revises the 

proposal to, among other things, change 

the minimum bid price requirement to 

a closing price, require that a security 

must have a $4 closing price for at least 

five consecutive business days, rather 

than one day as originally proposed, 

before it will be reevaluated under both 

the qualitative and quantitative initial 

listing standards, and require daily 

publication of the list of securities that 

become subject to the penny stock rules. 

The Commission believes that the 

changes in Amendment No. 1 

strengthen the proposal and, as 

discussed above, address concerns 

about the potential for manipulation. 

Accordingly, the Commission also finds 

good cause, pursuant to Section 19(b)(2) 

of the Act,39 for approving the proposed 

rule change, as modified by Amendment 

No. 1, prior to the 30th day after the 

date of publication of notice in the 

Federal Register. 

VII. Conclusion 

It is therefore ordered, pursuant to 

Section 19(b)(2) of the Act,40 that the 

proposed rule change (SR–NASDAQ– 

2012–002), as modified by Amendment 

No. 1, is approved on an accelerated 

basis. 

For the Commission, by the Division of 

Trading and Markets, pursuant to delegated 

authority.41

Deputy Secretary.
