if they believe that an execution of the

original order is imminent based on

market circumstances.

The Exchange has concluded that this

disparity in treatment places undue

restrictions on solicited parties. Once an

original order is fully disclosed to the

trading crowd, those in the crowd have

essentially the same market information

as do solicited persons. Moreover, any

solicited person who has privately

indicated an intention to place a

responsive order, and anyone aware of

that intention, necessarily remains

subject to the risks of the market and the

auction process when entering a

responsive order or affecting

anticipatory trades. In such

circumstances, all Exchange members

should be able to effect trades on equal

terms, and the proposal would achieve

that equality of treatment.

Accordingly, the Exchange has

concluded that paragraph (e) should be

modified to require disclosure of the

terms of the original order only. The

Exchange believes that this narrower

disclosure requirement will provide the

trading crowd with a fair and full

opportunity to make informed trading

decisions without subjecting solicited

parties and the solicitation process to

overly burdensome restrictions.

The CBOE believes that its proposal is

consistent with Section 6(b) of the Act

in particular in that it is designed to

promote just and equitable principles of

trade and to protect investors and the

public interest. Specifically, the CBOE

believes that its proposal will enhance

the CBOE auction by restricting the

trading activities of all CBOE members

and associated persons equally.

(B) Self-Regulatory Organization’s

Statement on Burden on Competition

CBOE does not believe that the

proposed rule change will impose any

burden on competition.

(C) Self-Regulatory Organization’s

Statement on Comments on the

Proposed Rule Change Received From

Members, Participants, or Others

Written Comments on the proposed

rule change were neither solicited nor

received.

III. Date of Effectiveness of the

Proposed Rule Change and Timing for

Commission Action

Within 35 days of the date of

publication of this notice in the Federal

Register or within such longer period (i)

as the Commission may designate up to

90 days of such date if it finds such

longer period to be appropriate and

publishes its reasons for so finding or

(ii) as to which the self-regulatory

organization consents, the Commission

will:

(a) By order approve such proposed

rule change, or

(b) Institute proceedings to determine

whether the proposed rule change

should be disapproved.

IV. Solicitation of Comments

Interested persons are invited to

submit written data, views and

arguments concerning the foregoing.

Persons making written submissions

should file six copies thereof with the

Secretary, Securities and Exchange

Commission, 450 Fifth Street NW.,

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 NW.,

Washington, D.C. Copies of such filing
