12For purposes only of waiving the 30-day 

operative delay, the Commission also has 

considered the proposed rule’s impact on 

efficiency, competition, and capital formation. See 

15 U.S.C. 78c(f). 

13Copies 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

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 website viewing and printing in the 

Commission’s Public Reference Room, 100 F Street

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 will institute proceedings to determine 

whether the proposed rule change should be 

approved or disapproved.

amend the Fee Schedule (SR–NYSEAmer–2024– 

Continued 

become operative prior to 30 days after 

the date of the filing. However, pursuant 

to Rule 19b–4(f)(6)(iii),11 the 

Commission may designate a shorter 

time if such action is consistent with 

protection of investors and the public 

interest. The Exchange has asked the 

Commission to waive the 30-day 

operative delay so that the proposed 

rule change may become operative 

immediately upon filing. The 

Commission believes that waving the 

30-day operative delay is consistent 

with the protection of investors and the 

public interest because it will allow the 

Exchange to launch the proposed 

Missed Liquidity Report and Cancels 

Report on January 27, 2025. The 

Commission recognizes that the 

Exchange previously submitted the 

proposed rule change on December 13, 

2024 (SR–C2–2024–022), which would 

have resulted in an operative date of 

January 13, 2025. The Exchange 

withdrew filing SR–C2–2024–022 on 

January 10, 2025, and the Commission 

did not receive any comments related to 

that filing. The Exchange submitted this 

filing to make a clarifying, nonsubstantive change to more clearly 

reflect the excluded trades under the 

Missed Liquidity Report, which the 

Exchange believes will avoid potential 

confusion. Further, this filing does not 

introduce any novel regulatory issues. 

Accordingly, the Commission 

designates the proposed rule change to 

be operative upon filing.12

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 will institute proceedings 

to determine whether the proposed rule 

change should be approved or 

disapproved.
