rules of a DCM or a SEF. In order to 

comply with CFTC Regulation 

39.12(b)(7), CME proposes to amend 

CME Rules 8F005, 8G005 and 8H005. 

CME will also make relevant changes to 

the corresponding CME Clearing 

Manuals of Operations to account for 

the proposed rule changes. 

CME also made a separate filing, CME 

Submission 12–280, with its primary 

regulator, the CFTC, with respect to the 

proposed rule changes. 

CME believes the proposed changes 

are consistent with the requirements of 

the Exchange Act. CME, a derivatives 

clearing organization, is required to 

implement the proposed changes to 

comply with recent changes to CFTC 

regulations. CME notes that the policies 

of the Commodity Exchange Act 

(‘‘CEA’’) with respect to clearing are 

comparable to a number of the policies 

underlying the Exchange Act, such as 

promoting market transparency for 

derivatives markets, promoting the 

prompt and accurate clearance of 

transactions and protecting investors 

and the public interest. CME believes 

the mandatory CFTC changes are 

specifically designed to facilitate the 

prompt and efficient processing of all 

contracts, agreements, and transactions 

submitted for clearing and will therefore 

help protect investors and safeguard 

customer funds. 

B. Self-Regulatory Organization’s 

Statement on Burden on Competition 

CME does not believe that the 

proposed rule change will have any 

impact, or impose any burden, on 

competition. 

C. Self-Regulatory Organization’s 

Statement on Comments on the 

Proposed Rule Change Received From 

Members, Participants, or Others

this proposed rule change. CME has not 

received any unsolicited written 

comments from interested parties. 

III. Solicitation of Comments

change is consistent with the Act.

IV. Commission’s Findings and Order 

Granting Accelerated Approval of 

Proposed Rule Change 

Section 19(b) of the Act 3 directs the 

Commission to approve a proposed rule 

change of a self-regulatory organization 

if it finds that such proposed rule 

change is consistent with the 

requirements of the Act and the rules 

and regulations thereunder applicable to 

such organization. The Commission 

finds that the proposed rule change is 

consistent with the requirements of the 

Act, in particular the requirements of 

Section 17A of the Act, and the rules 

and regulations thereunder applicable to 

CME.4 Specifically, the Commission 

finds that the proposed rule change is 

consistent with Section 17A(b)(3)(F) of 

the Act, which requires, among other 

things, that the rules of a registered 

clearing agency be designed to promote 

the prompt and accurate clearance and 

settlement of securities transactions 

and, to the extent applicable, derivative 

agreements, contracts, and 

transactions.5

In its filing, CME requested that the 

Commission approve this proposed rule 

change on an accelerated basis for good 

cause shown. CME cites as the reason 

for this request CME’s operation as a 

DCO, which is subject to regulation by 

the CFTC under the CEA, and that the 

proposed rule changes are required to 

comply with new CFTC regulations that 

become effective on October 1, 2012. 

The Commission finds good cause, 

pursuant to Section 19(b)(2) of the Act,6

for approving the proposed rule change 

prior to the 30th day after the date of 

publication of notice in the Federal 

Register because, as a registered DCO, 

CME must amend certain of its rules to 

comply with CFTC Regulation 

39.12(b)(7), which becomes effective on 

October 1, 2012. 

V. Conclusion 

It is therefore ordered, pursuant to 

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

proposed rule change (SR–CME–2012– 

38) be, and hereby is, approved on an 

accelerated basis. 

For the Commission, by the Division of 

Trading and Markets, pursuant to delegated 

authority.7

The Review and Amendment of the 

Designation of Al-Qa’ida in the Arabian 

Peninsula, aka Al-Qa’ida of Jihad 

Organization in the Arabian Peninsula, 

aka Tanzim Qa’idat al-Jihad fi Jazirat 

al-Arab, aka Al-Qa’ida in Yemen, aka 

Al-Qa’ida in the South Arabian 

Peninsula as a Foreign Terrorist 

Organization Pursuant to Section 219 

of the Immigration and Nationality Act 

Based upon a review of the 

Administrative Record assembled in 

this matter pursuant to Section 

219(a)(4)(C) of the Immigration and 

Nationality Act, as amended (8 U.S.C. 

1189(a)(4)(C)) (‘‘INA’’), and in 

consultation with the Attorney General 

and the Secretary of the Treasury, the 

Secretary of State concludes that the 

circumstances that were the basis for the 

2004 designation of the aforementioned 

organization as a foreign terrorist 

organization have not changed in such 

a manner as to warrant revocation of the 

designation and that the national 

security of the United States does not 

warrant a revocation of the designation, 

and that there is a sufficient factual 

basis to find that al-Qa’ida in the 

Arabian Peninsula, also known under 

the aliases listed above, uses or has used 

an additional alias, namely, Ansar alShari’a. 

Therefore, the Secretary of State 

hereby determines that the designation 

of the aforementioned organization as a 

foreign terrorist organization, pursuant 

to Section 219 of the INA (8 U.S.C. 

1189), shall be maintained, and in 

addition, effective upon the date of 

publication in the Federal Register, the 

Secretary of State hereby amends the 

2010 designation of al-Qa’ida in the 

Arabian Peninsula as a foreign terrorist 

organization, pursuant to § 219(b) of the 

INA (8 U.S.C. 1189(b)), to include the 

following new alias and other possible 

transliterations thereof: Ansar al-Shari’a.
