positions to the lower limit levels. The

Commission also notes that no

comments were received on the original

Phlx proposal, which was subject to the

full 21-day comment period. Therefore,

the Commission believes that it is

consistent with Section 6(b)(5) of the

Act to approve Amendment No. 1 to the

proposed rule change on an accelerated

basis.

Interested persons are invited to

submit written data, views and

arguments concerning Amendment No.

1 to the proposed rule change. Persons

making written submissions should file

six copies thereof with the Secretary,

Securities and Exchange Commission,

450 Fifth Street, N.W., Washington, D.C.

20549.

Copies of the submission, all

subsequent amendments, all written

statements with respect to the proposed

rule change that are filed with the

Commission, and all written

communications relating to the

proposed rule change between the

Commission and any person, other than

those that may be withheld from the

public in accordance with the

provisions of 5 U.S.C. 552, will be

available for inspection and copying in

the Commission’s Public Reference

Section, 450 Fifth Street, N.W.,

Washington, D.C. Copies of such filing

will also be available for inspection and

copying at the principal office of the

Phlx. All submissions should refer to

File No. SR–Phlx–97–05 and should be

submitted by April 15, 1997.

For the foregoing reasons, the

Commission finds that the Phlx’s

proposal, as amended, is consistent with

the requirements of the Act and the

rules and regulations thereunder.

It is therefore ordered, pursuant to

Section 19(b)(2) of the Act,14 that the

amended proposed rule change (SR–

Phlx–97–05) is approved.

For the Commission, by the Division of

Market Regulations, pursuant to delegated

authority.15
