LLC, Nasdaq PHLX LLC, The NASDAQ 

Stock Market LLC, New York Stock 

Exchange LLC, NYSE American LLC, 

NYSE Arca, Inc., NYSE Chicago, Inc., 

and NYSE National, Inc. (collectively, 

the ‘‘Participants,’’ ‘‘self-regulatory 

organizations,’’ or ‘‘SROs’’) filed with 

the Securities and Exchange 

Commission (‘‘SEC’’ or ‘‘Commission’’) 

pursuant to Section 11A(a)(3) of the 

Securities Exchange Act of 1934 

(‘‘Exchange Act’’),2 and Rule 608 

thereunder,3 a proposed amendment 

(‘‘Proposed Amendment’’) to the CAT 

NMS Plan that would authorize CAT 

LLC to revise the Consolidated Audit 

Trail Reporter Agreement and the 

Consolidated Audit Trail Reporting 

Agent Agreement to insert limitation of 

liability provisions. The Proposed 

Amendment was published for 

comment in the Federal Register on 

January 6, 2021.4

On April 6, 2021, the Commission 

instituted proceedings to determine 

whether to approve or disapprove the 

Proposed Amendment.5 On June 25, 

2021, pursuant to Rule 608(b)(2)(i) of 

Regulation NMS,6 the Commission 

extended the period within which to 

conclude proceedings regarding the 

Proposed Amendment to 240 days from 

the date of publication of the Notice.7

Rule 608(b)(2)(ii) of Regulation NMS 

provides that the time for conclusion of 

proceedings to determine whether a 

national market system plan or 

proposed amendment should be 

disapproved may be extended for an 

additional period up to 60 days (up to 

300 days from the date of notice 

publication) if the Commission 

determines that a longer period is 

appropriate and publishes the reasons 

for such determination or the plan 

participants consent to the longer 

period.8 The 240th day after publication 

of the Notice for the Proposed 

Amendment is September 3, 2021. The 

Commission is extending this 240-day 

period. 

The Commission finds that it is 

appropriate to designate a longer period 

within which to conclude proceedings 

regarding the Proposed Amendment so 

that it has sufficient time to consider the 

Proposed Amendment and the 

comments received. Accordingly, 

pursuant to Rule 608(b)(2)(ii) of 

Regulation NMS,9 the Commission 

designates November 2, 2021, as the 

date by which the Commission shall 

conclude the proceedings to determine 

whether to approve or disapprove the 

Proposed Amendment (File No. 4–698). 

By the Commission. 

Vanessa A. Countryman, 

Secretary.
