### 17734 Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 61 / Wednesday, March 30, 2011 / Notices

6 Id. at Rule 9.21.

7 15 U.S.C. 78f(b).

8 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5). 9 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A).

10 17 CFR 240.19b–4(f)(6).

11 As required under Rule 19b-4(f)(6)(iii), the Exchange provided the Commission with written notice of its intent to file the proposed rule change, along with a brief description and the 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. 12 17 CFR 200.30–3(a)(12). pursuant to the 17d–2 Agreement. The portion of the rule prohibiting the guarantee of a customer against loss is being amended to clarify that it applies not only to Order Flow Providers but also to persons associated with Participants.

Third, the SRO proposes to amend its options communication rule, BOX Rule Chapter XI, Section 24, by deleting the
term ‘‘market letters ’’ in the definition of

‘‘ sales literature ’’ and adding the term

‘‘market letters ’’ to the definition of

‘‘ correspondence ’’ to harmonize the rule with FINRA Rule 2220 and NASD Rule 2210(a)(2). 6 2. Statutory Basis

The SRO believes that the proposal is consistent with the requirements of Section 6(b) of the Act, 7 in general, and Section 6(b)(5) of the Act, 8 in particular, in that it is designed to promote just and equitable principles of trade, to foster cooperation and coordination with persons engaged in facilitating transactions in securities, to prevent fraudulent and manipulative acts, to remove impediments to and perfect the mechanism of a free and open market and a national market system and, in general, to protect investors and the public interest. Specifically, the proposed rule changes, by harmonizing BOX Trading Rules with FINRA Rules and the rules of other options exchanges, would provide Participants with a clearer regulatory scheme. The SRO further notes that the proposed rule changes are neither novel nor controversial and are modeled on existing rules. B. Self-Regulatory Organization’s Statement on Burden on Competition

The SRO does not believe that the proposed rule change will impose any burden on competition 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 SRO has neither solicited nor received comments on the proposed rule change. III. Basis for Summary Effectiveness Pursuant to Section 19(b)(3) or for Accelerated Effectiveness Pursuant to Section 19(b)(2)

This proposed rule change is filed pursuant to paragraph (A) of section 19(b)(3) of the Exchange Act 9 and Rule 19b–4(f)(6) thereunder. 10 This proposed rule change does not significantly affect the protection of investors or the public interest, does not impose any significant burden on competition, and, by its terms, does not become operative for 30 days after the date of the filing, or such shorter time as the Commission may designate if consistent with the protection of investors and the public interest. Because the rule change is based upon rules in place at FINRA and other options exchanges, and does not present any novel issues, and is intended to maintain consistency among the exchanges, the SRO requests that the Commission waive the 30-day operative delay period for ‘‘non-controversial ’’ proposals and make the proposed rule change effective and operative upon filing. 11

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 the action is necessary or appropriate in the public interest, for the protection of investors, or would otherwise further 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.

**In the Matter of the Designation of Ibrahim Hassan Tali al-Asiri, also**  **known as Ibrahim Hassan al-Asiri, also known as Ibrahim Hasan Tali’A ’Asiri,**  **also known as Ibrahim Hasan Tali al- ’Asiri, also known as Ibrahim al-’Asiri,**  **also known as Ibrahim Hassan Al Asiri, also known as Ibrahim Hassan Tali**  **Assiri, also known as Abu Saleh, also known as Abosslah, as a Specially**  **Designated Global Terrorist Pursuant to Section 1(b) of Executive Order**  **13224, as Amended**

Acting under the authority of and in accordance with section 1(b) of Executive Order 13224 of September 23, 2001, as amended by Executive Order 13268 of July 2, 2002, and Executive Order 13284 of January 23, 2003, I hereby determine that the individual known as Ibrahim Hassan Tali al-Asiri, also known as Ibrahim Hassan al-Asiri, also known as Ibrahim Hasan Tali’A ’Asiri, also known as Ibrahim Hasan Tali al-’Asiri, also known as Ibrahim al- ’Asiri, also known as Ibrahim Hassan Al Asiri, also known as Ibrahim Hassan Tali Assiri, also known as Abu Saleh, also known as Abosslah, committed, or poses a significant risk of committing, acts of terrorism that threaten the security of U.S. nationals or the national security, foreign policy, or economy of the United States.

Consistent with the determination in section 10 of Executive Order 13224 that

‘‘ prior notice to persons determined to be subject to the Order who might have a constitutional presence in the United States would render ineffectual the blocking and other measures authorized in the Order because of the ability to transfer funds instantaneously, ’’ I determine that no prior notice needs to be provided to any person subject to this determination who might have a constitutional presence in the United States, because to do so would render ineffectual the measures authorized in the Order.

This notice shall be published in the Federal Register
