15 17 CFR 240.19b–4(f)(6). In addition, Rule 19b– 

4(f)(6)(iii) requires the self-regulatory organization 

to submit to the Commission written notice of its 

intent to file the proposed rule change, along with 

a brief description and text of the proposed rule 

change, at least 5 business days prior to the date 

of filing of the proposed rule change, or such 

shorter time as designated by the Commission. The 

Exchange has satisfied this requirement. 16 17 CFR 200.30–3(a)(12). 

three occasions in order to prepare a 

rule filing seeking permission to make 

the above described changes 

permanent.13 The Exchange is currently 

still preparing such formal submission 

but does not expect that filing to be 

completed and approved by the 

Commission before September 30, 2010. 

Proposal To Extend the Operation of the 

NMM Pilot 

The NYSE established the NMM Pilot 

to provide incentives for quoting, to 

enhance competition among the existing 

group of liquidity providers and to have 

its market maker be a new competitive 

market participant. The Exchange 

believes that the NMM Pilot allows the 

Exchange to provide its market 

participants with a trading venue that 

utilizes an enhanced market structure to 

encourage the addition of liquidity, 

facilitate the trading of larger orders 

more efficiently and operates to reward 

aggressive liquidity providers. As such, 

the Exchange believes that the rules 

governing the NMM Pilot should be 

made permanent. Through this filing the 

Exchange seeks to extend the current 

operation of the NMM Pilot until 

January 31, 2011, in order to allow the 

Exchange time to formally submit a 

filing to the Commission to convert the 

pilot rules to permanent rules. 

2. Statutory Basis 

The basis under the Securities 

Exchange Act of 1934 (the ‘‘Act’’) for this 

proposed rule change is the requirement 

under Section 6(b)(5) that an exchange 

have rules that are designed to promote 

just and equitable principles of trade, 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. The Exchange believes 

that the instant filing is consistent with 

these principles because the NMM Pilot 

provides its market participants with a 

trading venue that utilizes an enhanced 

market structure to encourage the 

addition of liquidity, facilitate the 

trading of larger orders more efficiently 

and operates to reward aggressive 

liquidity providers. Moreover, the 

instant filing requesting an extension of 

the Pilot will permit adequate time for: 

(i) The Exchange to prepare and submit 

a filing to make the rules governing the 

NMM Pilot permanent; (ii) public notice 

and comment; and (iii) completion of 

the 19b–4 approval process. 

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 

No written comments were solicited 

or received with respect to the proposed 

rule change. 

III. Date of Effectiveness of the 

Proposed Rule Change and Timing for 

Commission Action 

Because the foregoing proposed rule 

change does not: 

(i) Significantly affect the protection 

of investors or the public interest; 

(ii) Impose any significant burden on 

competition; and 

(iii) 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, it has become effective 

pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A) of the 

Act 14 and Rule 19b–4(f)(6) 

thereunder.15

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 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:
