(‘‘Act’’) 1 and Rule 19b–4 thereunder.2

The notice of filing of the proposed rule 

change was published for comment in 

the Federal Register on July 1, 2024.3

On August 16, 2024, the Commission 

extended the review period of the

section 19(b)(2) of the Act,4 by which 

the Commission shall either approve, 

disapprove, or institute proceedings to 

determine whether to disapprove the 

proposed rule change.5 The Commission 

has received comments regarding the 

proposed rule change.6

On October 2, 2024, the Commission 

instituted proceedings, pursuant to 

Section 19(b)(2)(B) of the Exchange 

Act,7 to determine whether to approve 

or disapprove the proposed rule 

change.8 On September 24, 2024, FICC 

filed Partial Amendment No. 1 to make

No. 1 in the Federal Register on October

Section 19(b)(2) of the Exchange

be concluded within 180 days of the 

date of publication of notice of filing of

Rule Change so that the Commission has 

sufficient time to consider the issues 

raised by the Proposed Rule Change and 

to take action on the Proposed Rule 

Change. Accordingly, pursuant to
