###### Securities and Exchange Commission

          - [Release No. 34-58484; File No. SR-NYSEAcra-2008-89] 

                    Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Act”) [1]                                          and Rule 19b-4 thereunder,[2]                                          notice is hereby given that on August 25, 2008, NYSE Arca, Inc. (“NYSE Arca” or “Exchange”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“Commission”) the proposed rule change as described in Items I, II, and III below, which Items have been prepared by the Exchange. The Commission is publishing this notice to solicit comments on the proposed rule change from interested persons.                 

## I. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Terms of Substance of the Proposed Rule Change 

                    The Exchange, through its wholly-owned subsidiary NYSE Arca Equities, Inc. (“NYSE Arca Equities”), proposes to amend its rules governing NYSE Arca, LLC (also referred to as the “NYSE Arca Marketplace”), the equities trading facility of NYSE Arca Equities. The Exchange is proposing to amend NYSE Arca Equities Rule 5.2(j)(3), the Exchange's initial listing standards for Investment Company Units (“ICUs”), to include generic listing standards for series of ICUs that seek to provide investment results that either exceed the performance of a specified index by a specified multiple (“Multiple Fund Shares”) or that correspond to the inverse (opposite) of the performance of a specified index by a specified multiple (“Inverse Fund Shares”) (collectively, “Fund Shares”). The text of the proposed rule change is available on the Exchange's Web site at                     *http://www.nyse.com*                    , at the Exchange's principal office, and at the Commission's Public Reference Room.[3] 

## II. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Purpose of, and Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change 

In its filing with the Commission, NYSE Arca included statements concerning the purpose of, and basis for, the proposed rule change and discussed any comments it received on the proposed rule change. The text of these statements may be examined at the places specified in Item IV below. NYSE Arca has prepared summaries, set forth in Sections A, B, and C below, of the most significant aspects of such statements. 

### A. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Purpose of, and Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change 

#### 1. Purpose 

                    The Exchange is proposing to amend NYSE Arca Equities Rule 5.2(j)(3), the Exchange's initial listing standards for ICUs, to include generic listing standards for series of Multiple Fund Shares and Inverse Fund Shares.[4]                                          The Exchange notes that the Commission has previously approved the listing and trading of various Multiple Fund Shares and Inverse Fund Shares.[5]                                          Multiple Fund Shares and Inverse Fund Shares currently trading on the Exchange include the Short Funds and UltraShort Funds of the ProShares Trust and the Inverse Funds and Leveraged Inverse Funds of the Rydex ETF Trust, which trade on the Exchange pursuant to unlisted trading privileges (“UTP”) under NYSE Arca Equities Rule 5.2(j)(3).[6] 

                    This rule proposal is similar to a proposed rule change by American Stock Exchange LLC (“Amex”) in which the Commission approved generic listing standards for Multiple Fund Shares and Inverse Fund Shares.[7]                                          In addition, the Exchange notes that the Commission has approved generic listing standards in NYSE Arca Equities Rule 5.2(j)(6), the Exchange's initial listing standards for Equity Index-Linked Securities, Commodity-Linked Securities, Currency-Linked Securities, Fixed Income Index-Linked Securities, Futures-Linked Securities and MultiFactor Index-Linked Securities,                           ( print page 53473)                        permitting the loss or negative payment at maturity with respect to such securities to be accelerated by up to twice the performance of the underlying Reference Asset (as defined in Rule 5.2(j)(6)).[8] 

The Exchange proposes to amend Commentaries .01, .02 and .03 and add new Commentary .04 to Rule 5.2(j)(3) to permit the listing and trading of Multiple Fund Shares and certain Inverse Fund Shares pursuant to the Exchange's generic listing standards for ICUs. Specifically, the investment objective associated with the Fund Shares must be expected to achieve investment results, before fees and expenses, that correspond to a specific multiple of the percentage performance on a given day (Multiple Fund Shares) or inversely up to minus or negative 300% (−300%) (Inverse Fund Shares) of the percentage performance of the underlying benchmark domestic, international or global equity and/or Fixed Income Securities index or a combination thereof, as applicable. Specifically, the Exchange is proposing to remove the current limitation to listing Multiple Fund Shares and Inverse Fund Shares. The Exchange proposes to add to Commentary .01, .02. and .03 of NYSE Arca Equities Rule 5.2(j)(3) to provide initial listing standards for ICUs to prohibit listing on the Exchange of a series of ICUs issued by an open-end management investment company that seeks to provide investment results, before fees and expenses, in an amount that exceeds −300% of the percentage performance on a given day of a particular domestic, international or global equity, or Fixed Income Securities index or combination thereof. 

                    Accordingly, the proposed rule change will enable the Exchange to list and trade Multiple Fund Shares and Inverse Fund Shares pursuant to Rule 19b-4(e) [9]                                          of the Act if each of the conditions set forth in Commentaries .01 or .02, or .03, as applicable, and Commentary .04 are satisfied.                 

In addition, the Exchange proposes to amend NYSE Arca Equities Rule 5.2(j)(3), Commentary .02(ii) to make a grammatical correction, replacing the words “are satisfied” with “satisfy”. 

#### Limitation on Leverage 

                    In connection with Inverse Fund Shares that seek to provide investment results, before fees and expenses, in an amount that exceeds −300% of the percentage performance of the underlying benchmark index, the Exchange's proposal would continue to require specific Commission approval pursuant to Section 19(b)(2) of the Act.[10]                                          In particular, Commentary .01, .02 and .03 of NYSE Arca Equities Rule 5.2(j)(3) would expressly prohibit Inverse Fund Shares that seek to provide investment results, before fees and expenses, in an amount that exceeds −300% of the percentage performance of the underlying benchmark index, from being approved by the Exchange for listing and trading pursuant to Rule 19b-4(e) under the Act.[11] 

In connection with Multiple Fund Shares, proposed Commentary .01, .02 and .03 of NYSE Arca Equities Rule 5.2(j)(3) does not provide a similar limitation on leverage. Instead, the proposal would permit the fund to seek to provide investment results, before fees and expenses, that correspond to any multiple, without limitation, of the percentage performance on a given day of a particular domestic, international or global equity, or Fixed Income Securities index or a combination thereof. 

                    The Exchange believes that a −300% limitation is appropriate for funds listed pursuant to the proposed criteria. Daily public Web site disclosure of portfolio holdings as required by proposed new Commentary .04 to Rule 5.2(j)(3), as discussed below, will ensure that investors are aware of the equity securities, Fixed Income Securities, Financial Instruments (as described below) and any cash and cash equivalents in a fund's portfolio that a fund utilizes to seek to provide investment results corresponding to up to −300% of the underlying benchmark index. As noted above, the Commission has previously approved the listing of Inverse Fund Shares with a −200% limitation, as well as generic listing standards to accommodate such listings.[12]                                          The Exchange believes that a −300% limitation will permit funds to provide investors with an incremental additional degree of leverage similar to instruments available to professional investors to manage risk, but with the additional transparency associated with portfolio disclosure, last sale reporting, and Intraday Indicative Value (“IIV”) dissemination, as discussed below. In addition, recommendations to investors of transactions in Fund Shares are subject to the customer suitability requirements of NYSE Arca Equities Rule 9.2, as discussed below.                 

#### Availability of Information About Fund Shares and Underlying Indexes 

                    Proposed new Commentary .04 to Rule 5.2(j)(3) provides that the portfolio composition of a fund will be disclosed on its Web site. Web site disclosure of portfolio holdings will be made daily and will include, as applicable: (1) The identity and number of shares held of each specific equity security; (2) the identity and amount held of each specific fixed income security; (3) the specific types of financial instruments, which include, but are not limited to: Stock index futures contracts; options on futures contracts; options on securities and indices; equity caps, collars, and floors; swap agreements; forward contracts; and repurchase agreements (“Financial Instruments”), as well as the characteristics of such Financial Instruments; and (4) the cash equivalents and amount of cash held in the portfolio of a fund. This public Web site disclosure of the portfolio composition of a fund will coincide with the disclosure of the “IIV File” [13]                                          and the “PCF File”.[14]                                          Therefore, the same portfolio information (including accrued expenses and dividends) will be provided on the public Web site as well as in the IIV File and PCF File provided to “Authorized Participants”.[15]                                          The format of the public Web site disclosure and the IIV File and PCF File may differ because the public Web site will list all portfolio holdings while the IIV File and PCF File will similarly provide the portfolio holdings but in a format appropriate for Authorized Participants,                     *i.e.*, the exact                           ( print page 53474)                        components of a Creation Unit. Accordingly, investors will have access to the current portfolio composition of a fund through the fund's Web site.                 

Specifically, proposed new Commentary .04 to NYSE Arca Equities Rule 5.2(j)(3) would provide that the provisions of Commentary .04 would apply only to series of ICUs that are issued by an open-end management investment company that (i) seeks to provide investment results, before fees and expenses, that correspond to a specific multiple of the percentage performance on a given day of a particular domestic equity, international or global equity securities index, or Fixed Income Securities index, or a combination thereof (“Multiple Fund Shares”), or (ii) seeks to provide investment results, before fees and expenses, that correspond inversely up to −300% of the percentage performance on a given day of a particular domestic equity, international or global equity securities index, or Fixed Income Securities index, or a combination thereof (“Inverse Fund Shares”). For the initial and continued listing of Multiple Fund Shares and/or Inverse Fund Shares, the following requirements must be adhered to: Daily public Web site disclosure of portfolio holdings that will form the basis for the calculation of the net asset value by the issuer of a series of Multiple Fund Shares or Inverse Fund Shares, including, as applicable, the following instruments: (i) The identity and number of shares held of each specific equity security; (ii) the identity and amount held of each specific Fixed Income Security; (iii) the specific types of Financial Instruments and characteristics of such Financial Instruments; and (iv) cash equivalents and the amount of cash held in the portfolio. 

#### Trading Halts 

                    Existing trading halt requirements for ICUs will apply to Multiple Fund Shares and Inverse Fund Shares. In particular, Commentary .01(c) and .02(c) of NYSE Arca Equities Rule 5.2(j)(3) provides that, if the IIV or the index value applicable to that series of ICUs is not being disseminated as required, the Exchange may halt trading during the day in which the interruption to the dissemination of the IIV or the index value occurs. If the interruption to the dissemination of the IIV or the index value persists past the trading day in which it occurred, the Exchange will halt trading no later than the beginning of the trading day following the interruption.[16] 

In addition, proposed Commentary .04(b) to NYSE Arca Equities Rule 5.2(j)(3) requires the Exchange to halt trading of Fund Shares if the Exchange becomes aware that the open-end management investment company fails to properly disseminate the appropriate net asset value (“NAV”) to market participants at the same time and/or fails to provide daily public Web site disclosure of its portfolio holdings. Commentary .04(b) to NYSE Arca Equities Rule 5.2(j)(3) further provides that the Exchange may resume trading in such Fund Shares only when the NAV is disseminated to all market participants at the same time or the daily public Web site disclosure of portfolio holdings occurs, as appropriate. 

In addition to other factors that may be relevant, the Exchange may consider factors in exercising its discretion to halt or suspend trading in Multiple and/or Inverse Fund Shares. These factors would include, but are not limited to, (1) the extent to which trading is not occurring in securities comprising an Underlying Index and/or the Financial Instruments relating to Fund Shares, or (2) whether other unusual conditions or circumstances detrimental to the maintenance of a fair and orderly market are present. In the case of the Financial Instruments held by a Multiple or Inverse Fund, the Exchange represents that a notification procedure will be implemented so that timely notice from the investment adviser of such Multiple or Inverse Fund is received by the Exchange when a particular Financial Instrument is in default or shortly to be in default. Notification from the investment adviser will be made by phone, facsimile or e-mail. The Exchange will then determine on a case-by-case basis whether a default of a particular Financial Instrument justifies a trading halt of the Multiple and/or Inverse Fund Shares. Trading in Multiple and/or Inverse Fund Shares will also be halted if the circuit breaker parameters pursuant to NYSE Arca Equities 7.12 are reached. 

                    The Exchange believes that adopting generic listing standards for Multiple Fund Shares and Inverse Fund Shares based on domestic equity, international equity, and Fixed Income Securities indexes, or a combination thereof, and applying Rule 19b-4(e) [17]                                          should fulfill the intended objective of that Rule by allowing those ETFs that satisfy the proposed generic listing standards to commence trading, without the need for separate Commission approval. The proposed rules have the potential to reduce the timeframe for bringing Multiple Fund Shares and Inverse Fund Shares to market, thereby reducing the burdens on issuers and other market participants. The Exchange submits that the failure of a particular Multiple Fund Share or Inverse Fund Share portfolio to comply with the proposed generic listing standards under Rule 19b-4(e) [18]                                          would not, however, preclude the Exchange from submitting a separate filing pursuant to Section 19(b)(2) of the Act [19]                                          requesting Commission approval to list and trade a particular series of Multiple Fund Shares or Inverse Fund Shares.                 

#### Continued Listing and Trading Criteria 

The continued listing and trading requirements for existing ICUs included in NYSE Arca Equities Rule 5.5(g)(2) will similarly apply to Multiple Fund Shares and Inverse Fund Shares. 

#### Suitability 

Currently, NYSE Arca Equities Rule 9.2(a) (Diligence As to Accounts) provides that an ETP Holder, before recommending a transaction in ICUs, must have reasonable grounds to believe that the recommendation is suitable for their customer based on any facts disclosed by the customer as to its other security holdings and as to its financial situation and needs. Further, the rule provides, with a limited exception, that prior to the execution of a transaction recommended to a non-institutional customer, the ETP Holder shall make reasonable efforts to obtain information concerning the customer's financial status, tax status, investment objectives, and any other information that such ETP Holder believes would be useful to make a recommendation. 

                    Prior to the commencement of trading, the Exchange will inform its ETP Holders in an Information Bulletin of the suitability requirement of NYSE Arca Equities Rule 9.2(a) (Diligence As to Accounts). Specifically, ETP Holders will be reminded in the Information Bulletin that, in recommending transactions in these securities, they must have a reasonable basis to believe that the customer can evaluate the special characteristics of Multiple Fund Shares and Inverse Fund Shares and is able to bear the financial risks of such investment.                           ( print page 53475)    

This Information Bulletin will set forth the requirements relating to NYSE Arca Equities Rule 9.2(a)(2). Specifically, the Information Bulletin will remind ETP Holders of their obligations in recommending transactions in the Fund Shares so that members have a reasonable basis to believe that (1) the recommendation is suitable for a customer given reasonable inquiry concerning the customer's investment objectives, financial situation, needs, and any other information known by such member, and (2) the customer can evaluate the special characteristics, and is able to bear the financial risks, of such investment. In connection with the suitability obligation, the Information Circular will also provide that members make reasonable efforts to obtain the following information: (1) The customer's financial status; (2) the customer's tax status; (3) the customer's investment objectives; and (4) such other information used or considered to be reasonable by such member or registered representative in making recommendations to the customer. 

#### 2. Statutory Basis 

                    The Exchange believes that the proposed rule change is consistent with Section 6(b) [20]                                          of the Act, in general, and furthers the objectives of Section 6(b)(5),[21]                                          in particular, in that it is designed to prevent fraudulent and manipulative acts and practices, to promote just and equitable principles of trade, to foster cooperation and coordination with persons engaged in facilitating transactions in securities, to remove impediments to and perfect the mechanisms 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 rule change will facilitate the listing and trading of additional types of exchange-traded products that will enhance competition among market participants, to the benefit of investors and the marketplace. In addition, the listing and trading criteria set forth in Rule 5.2(j)(3) as proposed to be amended are intended to protect investors and the public interest.                 

### 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 Exchange consents, the Commission will:                 

(A) By order approve the proposed rule change, or 

(B) Institute proceedings to determine whether the proposed rule change should be disapproved.

4.                             Fund Shares differ from traditional exchange-traded fund (“ETF”) shares in that they do not merely correspond to the performance of a given securities index, but rather attempt to match a multiple or inverse of such underlying index performance. Multiple Fund Shares seek to provide investment results, before fees and expenses, that correspond to a specified multiple of the percentage performance on a given day of a particular foreign or domestic equities index or Fixed Income Securities (as described below) index or a combination thereof. Inverse Fund Shares seek to provide investment results, before fees and expenses, that correspond to the inverse (opposite) of the percentage performance on a given day of a particular foreign or domestic equities index or Fixed Income Securities index or a combination thereof, by a specified multiple. Fixed Income Securities are described in NYSE Arca Equities Rule 5.2(j)(3) as debt securities that are notes, bonds, debentures or evidence of indebtedness that include, but are not limited to, U.S. Department of Treasury securities, government-sponsored entity securities, municipal securities, trust preferred securities, supranational debt and debt of a foreign country or a subdivision thereof.

The IIV File is posted to a password-protected Web site before the opening of business on each business day, and all NSCC participants and the Exchange have access to a password and the Web site containing the IIV File.
