Federal Register / Vol. 73, No. 175 / Tuesday, September 9, 2008 / Notices 52441 

15 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5). 

16The second paragraph of the Statutory Basis 

section appears in the Form 19b–4 portion of SR–

NYSE–2008–78 filing, but not in Exhibit 1. In a 

phone call with Jason Harman, Consultant, NYSE 

Regulation on September 2, 2008, Sarah Albertson, 

Attorney, Division of Trading and Markets, SEC, 

confirmed that NYSE inadvertently omitted this 

paragraph of the Statutory Basis section in Exhibit 

1. Mr. Harman asked that the paragraph be included 

as the second paragraph under the Statutory Basis 

heading in this Notice. 17 17 CFR 200.30–3(a)(12). 

2. Statutory Basis 

The Exchange believes the proposed 

rule change is consistent with and 

furthers the objectives of Section 6(b)(5) 

of the Act,15 in that it is designed to 

prevent fraudulent and manipulative 

acts and practices, to promote just and 

equitable principles of trade, to remove 

impediments to, and perfect the 

mechanism of, a free and open market 

and a national market system, and, in 

general, to protect investors and the 

public interest. 

The Exchange believes that the 

proposed amendments to NYSE Rule 18 

will enhance the efficient execution of 

transactions and fair competition among 

broker-dealers and markets and provide 

a fair and reasonable process by which 

both NYSE members and member 

organizations and NYSE Alternext 

members and member organizations 

may petition for compensation when 

they suffer a loss due to a failure of 

Exchange-operated systems.16

B. Self-Regulatory Organization’s 

Statement on Burden on Competition 

The Exchange does not believe that 

the proposed rule change will impose 

any burden on competition that is not 

necessary or appropriate in furtherance 

of the purposes of the Act. 

C. Self-Regulatory Organization’s 

Statement on Comments on the 

Proposed Rule Change Received From 

Members, Participants or Others 

No written comments were solicited 

or received with respect to the proposed 

rule change. 

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 NYSE 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
