21 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A). 

22 17 CFR 240.19b–4(f)(6). In addition, Rule 19b– 

4(f)(6)(iii) requires a self-regulatory organization to 

give the Commission 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. The 

Exchange has satisfied this requirement. 23 17 CFR 200.30–3(a)(12). 

III. Date of Effectiveness of the 

Proposed Rule Change and Timing for 

Commission Action 

Because the 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 prior to 30 days from the date 

on which it was filed, or such shorter 

time as the Commission may designate, 

the proposed rule change has become 

effective pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A) 

of the Act 21 and Rule 19b–4(f)(6) 

thereunder.22

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. If the 

Commission takes such action, the 

Commission shall institute proceedings 

to determine whether the proposed rule 

change should be approved or 

disapproved. 

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:
