[Release No. 34–63125; File No. SR–ODD–

Canadian Derivatives Clearing 

Corporation; Order Approving 

Accelerated Distribution of an 

Amended Options Disclosure 

Document 

October 18, 2010. 

On September 28, 2010, the Canadian 

Derivatives Clearing Corporation 

(‘‘CDCC’’), on behalf of the Bourse de 

Montre ́al, Inc. (‘‘Bourse de Montre ́al’’), 

submitted to the Securities and 

Exchange Commission (‘‘Commission’’), 

pursuant to Rule 9b–1 under the 

Securities Exchange Act of 1934 

(‘‘Act’’),1 five definitive copies of an 

amended options disclosure document 

(‘‘ODD’’) that describes the risks and 

characteristics of options traded on the 

Bourse de Montre ́al.2 The CDCC has 

revised the ODD to, among other things, 

update the discussion of Canadian 

federal income tax considerations 

applicable to non-residents. 

Rule 9b–1 under the Act provides that 

an options market must file five 

preliminary copies of an amended ODD 

with the Commission at least 30 days 

prior to the date when definitive copies 

of the amended ODD are furnished to 

customers, unless the Commission 

determines otherwise, having due 

regard to the adequacy of the 

information disclosed and the public 

interest and protection of investors.3

The Commission has reviewed the 

amended ODD and finds, having due 

regard to the adequacy of the 

information disclosed, that it is 

consistent with the protection of 

investors and in the public interest to 

allow the distribution of the amended 

ODD as of the date of this order.4

It is therefore ordered, pursuant to 

Rule 9b–1 under the Act,5 that the 

distribution of the revised ODD (SR– 

ODD–2010–02) as of the date of this is 

order, is approved. 

For the Commission, by the Division of 

Trading and Markets, pursuant to delegated 

authority.6
