COMMISSION 

[SEC File No. 270–141, OMB Control No. 

3235–0249] 

Proposed Collection; Comment 

Request; Extension: Rule 12f–3 

Upon Written Request, Copies Available 

From: U.S. Securities and Exchange 

Commission, Office of FOIA Services, 

100 F Street NE, Washington, DC 

20549–2736. 

Notice is hereby given that pursuant 

to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 

(‘‘PRA’’) (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), the 

Securities and Exchange Commission 

(‘‘Commission’’) is soliciting comments 

on the existing collection of information 

provided for in Rule 12f–3 (17 CFR 

240.12f–3), under the Securities 

Exchange Act of 1934 (‘‘Act’’) (15 U.S.C. 

78a et seq.). The Commission plans to 

submit this existing collection of 

information to the Office of 

Management and Budget (‘‘OMB’’) for 

extension and approval. 

Rule 12f–3 (‘‘Rule’’), which was 

originally adopted in 1955 pursuant to 

Sections 12(f) and 23(a) of the Act, and 

as further modified in 1995, sets forth 

the requirements to submit an 

application to the Commission for 

termination or suspension of unlisted 

trading privileges in a security, as 

contemplated under Section 12(f)(4) of 

the Act. In addition to requiring that one 

copy of the application be filed with the 

Commission, the Rule requires that the 

application contain specified

NYSECHX–2022–10) (Notice of Filing and 

Immediate Effectiveness of Proposed Rule Change 

to Adopt Investigation, Disciplinary, Sanction, and 

Other Procedural Rules Modeled on the Rules of the 

Exchange’s Affiliates). 

information. Under the Rule, an 

application to suspend or terminate 

unlisted trading privileges must 

provide, among other things, the name 

of the applicant, a brief statement of the 

applicant’s interest in the question of 

termination or suspension of such 

unlisted trading privileges, the title of 

the security, the name of the issuer, 

certain information regarding the size of 

the class of security, the public trading 

volume and price history in the security 

for specified time periods on the subject 

exchange, and a statement indicating 

that the applicant has provided a copy 

of such application to the exchange 

from which the suspension or 

termination of unlisted trading 

privileges are sought and to any other 

exchange on which the security is listed 

or admitted to unlisted trading 

privileges. 

The information required to be 

included in applications submitted 

pursuant to Rule 12f–3 is intended to 

provide the Commission with sufficient 

information to make the necessary 

findings under the Act to terminate or 

suspend by order the unlisted trading 

privileges granted a security on a 

national securities exchange. Without 

the Rule, the Commission would be 

unable to fulfill these statutory 

responsibilities. 

The burden of complying with Rule 

12f–3 arises when a potential 

respondent, having a demonstrable bona 

fide interest in the question of 

termination or suspension of the 

unlisted trading privileges of a security, 

determines to seek such termination or 

suspension. The staff estimates that 

each such application to terminate or 

suspend unlisted trading privileges 

requires approximately one hour to 

complete. Thus each potential 

respondent would incur on average one 

burden hour in complying with the 

Rule. 

The Commission staff estimates that 

there could be as many as 24 responses 

annually for an aggregate burden for all 

respondents of 24 hours. Each 

respondent’s related internal cost of 

compliance for Rule 12f–3 would be 

$242, or the cost of one hour of 

professional work of a paralegal needed 

to complete the application. The total 

annual internal cost of compliance for 

all potential respondents, therefore, is 

$5,808 (24 responses × $242/response). 

Compliance with the application 

requirements of Rule 12f–3 is 

mandatory, though the filing of such 

applications is undertaken voluntarily. 

Rule 12f–3 does not have a record 

retention requirement per se. However, 

responses made pursuant to Rule 12f–3 

are subject to the recordkeeping 

requirements of Rules 17a–3 and 17a–4 

of the Act. Information received in 

response to Rule 12f–3 shall not be kept 

confidential; the information collected 

is public information. 

Written comments are invited on: (a) 

whether the proposed collection of 

information is necessary for the proper 

performance of the functions of the 

Commission, including whether the 

information shall have practical utility; 

(b) the accuracy of the Commission’s 

estimates of the burden of the proposed 

collection of information; (c) ways to 

enhance the quality, utility, and clarity 

of the information on respondents; and 

(d) ways to minimize the burden of the 

collection of information on 

respondents, including through the use 

of automated collection techniques or 

other forms of information technology. 

Consideration will be given to 

comments and suggestions submitted by 

April 15, 2024. 

An agency may not conduct or 

sponsor, and a person is not required to 

respond to, a collection of information 

under the PRA unless it displays a 

currently valid OMB control number.

Self-Regulatory Organizations; NYSE 

Chicago, Inc.; Notice of Filing and 

Immediate Effectiveness of Proposed 

Rule Change To Harmonize Rules 

10.9261 and 10.9830 

Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) 1 of the 

Securities Exchange Act of 1934 

(‘‘Act’’) 2 and Rule 19b–4 thereunder,3

notice is hereby given that, on January 

31, 2024, the NYSE Chicago, Inc. 

(‘‘NYSE Chicago’’ or the ‘‘Exchange’’) 

filed with the Securities and Exchange 

Commission (the ‘‘Commission’’) the 

proposed rule change as described in 

Items I, II, and III below, which Items 

have been prepared by the selfregulatory organization. The 

Commission is publishing this notice to 

solicit comments on the proposed rule 

change from interested persons. 

I. Self-Regulatory Organization’s 

Statement of the Terms of Substance of 

the Proposed Rule Change 

The Exchange proposes to harmonize 

Rules 10.9261 and 10.9830 to permit 

video conference hearings under 

specified conditions in conformity with 

recent changes by the Financial Industry 

Regulatory Authority, Inc. (‘‘FINRA’’). 

The proposed rule change is available 

on the Exchange’s website at 

www.nyse.com, at the principal office of 

the Exchange, and at the Commission’s 

Public Reference Room. 

II. Self-Regulatory Organization’s 

Statement of the Purpose of, and 

Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule 

Change 

In its filing with the Commission, the 

self-regulatory organization included 

statements concerning the purpose of, 

and basis for, the proposed rule change 

and discussed any comments it received 

on the proposed rule change. The text 

of those statements may be examined at 

the places specified in Item IV below. 

The Exchange has prepared summaries, 

set forth in sections A, B, and C below, 

of the most significant parts of such 

statements. 

A. Self-Regulatory Organization’s 

Statement of the Purpose of, and 

Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule 

Change 

1. Purpose 

The Exchange proposes to harmonize 

Rules 10.9261 (Evidence and Procedure 

in Hearing) and 10.9830 (Hearing) to 

permit video conference hearings under 

specified conditions in conformity with 

recent changes by FINRA. 

Background 

In 2022, NYSE Chicago adopted 

disciplinary rules that are, with certain 

exceptions, substantially the same as the 

disciplinary rules of its affiliate NYSE 

Arca, Inc., which are in turn 

substantially similar to the FINRA Rule 

8000 Series and Rule 9000 Series, and 

which set forth rules for conducting 

investigations and enforcement actions.4

In adopting disciplinary rules 

modeled on FINRA’s rules, the 

Exchange adopted the hearing and
