Specifically, the proposed rule change would update CME's CDS Product Rules to provide for the clearing of the iTraxx Contracts. Notice of the proposed rule change was published in the                     **Federal Register**                     on August 18, 2014.[3]                                          Notice of Amendment No. 2 to the proposed rule change was published in the                     **Federal Register**                     on October 1, 2014.[4]                                          The Commission did not receive comments on the proposal.                

                    On October 2, 2014, the Commission extended the time period in which to either approve the proposed rule change, disapprove the proposed rule change, or institute proceedings to determine whether to disapprove the proposed rule change to November 16, 2014.[5]                                          On November 14, 2014, CME withdrew the proposed rule change (SR-CME-2014-31).
