but these changes will not be 

implemented until the exchanges have 

conducted appropriate educational 

efforts and definitive copies of an 

appropriate supplement to the options 

disclosure document, Characteristics 

and Risks of Standardized Options, are 

available for distribution. 

OCC believes that the proposed rule 

change is consistent with the purposes 

and requirements of the Act because it 

is designed to promote the prompt and 

accurate clearance and settlement of 

transactions in securities options, to 

remove impediments to and perfect the 

mechanism of a national system for the 

prompt and accurate clearance and 

settlement of such transactions, and, in 

general, to protect investors and the 

public interest. It accomplishes this by 

reducing inconsistencies in the 

adjustment of stock option contracts. 

The proposed rule change is not 

inconsistent with the existing By-Laws 

and Rules of OCC, including any rules 

proposed to be amended. 

(B) Self-Regulatory Organization’s 

Statement on Burden on Competition 

OCC does not believe that the 

proposed rule change would impose any 

material burden on competition. 

(C) Self-Regulatory Organization’s 

Statement on Comments on the 

Proposed Rule Change Received From 

Members, Participants, or Others 

Written comments were not and are 

not intended to be solicited with respect 

to the proposed rule change, and none 

have been received. 

III. Date of Effectiveness of the 

Proposed Rule Change and Timing for 

Commission Action 

Within thirty-five 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 ninety 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.
