    \3\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 86400 (July 17,

exchange then filed that material as a separate proposed rule change 
filing. See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 86603 (August 8, 
2019), 84 FR 40460 (August 14, 2019) (SR-CBOE-2019-044). When the

the text of the amendment as a comment letter to the filing, which 
is available at https://www.sec.gov/comments/sr-cboe-2019-035/srcboe2019035-5917170-189047.pdf.

    Section 19(b)(2) of the Act \6\ provides that, within 45 days of 
publication of the notice of the filing of a proposed rule change, or 
within such longer period up to 90 days as the Commission may designate 
if it finds such longer period to be appropriate and publishes its 
reasons for so finding or as to which the self-regulatory organization 
consents, the Commission shall either approve the proposed rule change, 
disapprove the proposed rule change, or institute proceedings to 
determine whether the proposed rule change should be disapproved. The 
45th day after publication of the notice for this proposed rule change 
is September 6, 2019.

    The Commission hereby is extending the 45-day time period for 
Commission action on the proposed rule change. The Commission finds 
that it is appropriate to designate a longer period within which to 
take action on the proposed rule change so that it has sufficient time 
to consider the proposed rule change, including the comment letter 
received on the filing.
    Accordingly, pursuant to Section 19(b)(2) of the Act,\7\ the 
Commission designates October 21, 2019 as the date by which the 
Commission shall either approve, disapprove, or institute proceedings 
to determine whether to disapprove, the proposed rule change (File No. 
SR-CBOE-2019-035).
