          - [Release No. 34-73546; File No. SR-Phlx-2014-67]

                    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 November 4, 2014, NASDAQ OMX PHLX LLC (“Phlx” or “Exchange”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC” or “Commission”) the proposed rule change as described in Items I and II 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 is filing with the Commission a proposal to amend NASDAQ OMX PSX (“PSX”) [3]                                          Rule 3315 to correct two typographical errors in which references were made to a NASDAQ Stock Market LLC (“NASDAQ”) rule rather than to the PSX rule itself.                

                    The text of the proposed rule change is available on the Exchange's Web site at                     *http://nasdaqomxphlx.cchwallstreet.com/​,*                     at the principal office of the Exchange, and at the Commission's Public Reference Room.                

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

In its filing with the Commission, the Exchange 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. The Exchange 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 purpose of this filing is to correct two typographical errors in PSX Rule 3315(d) in which references were made to a NASDAQ rule rather than the PSX rule itself, and thereby clarify and conform Exchange rules pertaining to error accounts in respect of order routing.

                    Order routing is currently discussed in PSX Rule 3315. Subsection (d)(2) deals with the maintenance and use of an error account when routing. PSX Rule 3315 was adopted [4]                                          to fully spell out how routing will work on the Exchange and to generally track the language of NASDAQ Rule 4758. When PSX Rule 3315 was adopted, two references to NASDAQ Rule 4758 were inadvertently left in. In PSX Rule 3315(d)(2)(A) and 3315(d)(2)(B), the intent was and is to make reference to PSX Rule 3315 rather than NASDAQ Rule 4758.                

The Exchange is now proposing to correct these two typographical errors. The Exchange is thus substituting the current references to NASDAQ Rule 4758 in subsections (d)(2)(A) and (d)(2)(B) of PSX Rule 3315 with the correct references to PSX Rule 3315. There are no other changes.

The proposed non-substantive change substituting an improper rule reference is done to clarify the order routing rules and eliminate potential confusion, to the benefit of market participants.

#### 2. Statutory Basis

                    Phlx believes that the proposed rule change is consistent with the provisions of Section 6 of the Act,[5]                                          in general, and with Sections 6(b)(5) of the Act [6]                                          in particular, in that it is designed 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. This is achieved by correcting two non-substantive typographical errors in PSX Rule 3315, thereby clarifying the order routing rules and eliminating the potential for confusion, to the benefit of                           ( print page 67496)                        market participants. The Exchange believes that ensuring the proper rule references in PSX Rule 3315 will promote market participants' understanding of the rule and its administration.                

### B. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Burden on Competition

Phlx does not believe that the proposed rule change will result in any burden on competition that is not necessary or appropriate in furtherance of purposes of the Act. The Exchange believes that while rule clarity is generally pro-competitive, the act of clarifying and conforming the two non-substantive typographical errors should have little, if any, impact on competition.

### C. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Comments on the Proposed Rule Change Received From Members, Participants, or Others

No written comments were either solicited or received.

## III. Date of Effectiveness of the Proposed Rule Change and Timing for Commission Action

                    Because the proposed rule change does not: (i) significantly affect the protection of investors or the public interest; (ii) impose any significant burden on competition; and (iii) become operative for 30 days from the date on which it was filed, or such shorter time as the Commission may designate, it has become effective pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A)of the Act [7]                                          and of Rule 19b-4(f)(6) thereunder.[8] 

                    A proposed rule change filed under Rule 19b-4(f)(6) [9]                                          normally does not become operative prior to 30 days after the date of filing. However, pursuant to Rule 19b-4(f)(6)(iii),[10]                                          the commission may designate a shorter time if such action is consistent with the protection of investors and the public interest. The Exchange has asked the Commission to waive the 30-day operative delay. The Commission believes that waiving the 30-day operative delay could eliminate confusion that may exist if an operative delay was applied to the typographical errors, and believes that waiving the 30-day operative delay is consistent with the protection of investors and the public interest.[11]                                          Therefore, the Commission hereby waives the 30-day operative delay and designates the proposal operative upon filing.                

At any time within 60 days of the filing of the proposed rule change, the Commission summarily may temporarily suspend such rule change if it appears to the Commission that such action is: (i) necessary or appropriate in the public interest; (ii) for the protection of investors; or (iii) otherwise in furtherance of the purposes of the Act. If the Commission takes such action, the Commission shall institute proceedings to determine whether the proposed rule should be approved or disapproved.

## IV. Solicitation of Comments
