          - [Release No. 34-99209; File No. SR-EMERALD-2023-13]

                    On June 7, 2023, MIAX Emerald, LLC (“MIAX Emerald” or the “Exchange”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“Commission”), pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Act”),[1]                                          and Rule 19b-4 thereunder,[2]                                          a proposed rule change (File Number SR-EMERALD-2023-13) to increase fees for the MIAX Emerald Top of Market (“ToM”) market data product and establish fees for the MIAX Emerald Complex Top of Market (“cToM”) market data product. The proposed rule change was immediately effective upon filing with the Commission pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A) of the Act.[3]                                          The proposed rule change was published for comment in the                     **Federal Register**                     on June 26, 2023.[4]                                          On August 3, 2023, the Commission issued an order temporarily suspending the proposed rule change pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(C) of the Act [5]                                          and simultaneously instituting proceedings under Section 19(b)(2)(B) of the Act [6]                                          to determine whether to approve or disapprove the proposed rule change.[7] 

                    Section 19(b)(2) of the Act [8]                                          provides that, after initiating proceedings, the Commission shall issue an order approving or disapproving the proposed rule change not later than 180 days after the date of publication of notice of filing of the proposed rule change. The Commission may extend the period for issuing an order approving or disapproving the proposed rule change, however, by not more than 60 days if the Commission determines that a longer period is appropriate and publishes the reasons for such determination. The proposed rule change was published for notice and comment in the                     **Federal Register**                     on June 26, 2023.[9]                                          December 23, 2023 is 180 days from that date, and February 21, 2024 is 240 days from that date.                

                    The Commission finds it appropriate to designate a longer period within which to issue an order approving or disapproving the proposed rule change so that it has sufficient time to consider the proposed rule change. Accordingly, the Commission, pursuant to Section 19(b)(2) of the Act,[10]                                          designates February 21, 2024 as the date by which the Commission shall either approve or disapprove the proposed rule change (File No. SR-EMERALD-2023-13).                

                        For the Commission, by the Division of Trading and Markets, pursuant to delegated authority.[11] 

Christina Z. Milnor,

Assistant Secretary.
