    On June 11, 2020, Cboe Exchange, Inc. (``Exchange'') filed with the

Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (``Act'') \1\ 
and Rule 19b-4 thereunder,\2\ a proposed rule change to amend Rules 
5.37 and 5.38 to allow the Exchange to determine maximum size 
requirements for agency orders in SPX submitted though the Automated 
Improvement Mechanism (``AIM'') and Complex Automated Improvement 
Mechanism (``C-AIM'') auctions. The proposed rule change was published 
for comment in the Federal Register on June 18, 2020.\3\ On July 23,

change, which replaced and superseded the proposed rule change in its 
entirety.\4\

found at: https://www.sec.gov/comments/sr-cboe-2020-051/srcboe2020051.htm.
    \4\ In Amendment No. 1, the Exchange: (1) Amended its proposal 
to modify the proposed maximum size requirement for AIM and C-AIM 
agency orders in SPX from 100 contracts to 10 contracts, specify 
that this size requirement would apply to all agency orders in SPX, 
and make related conforming changes to its proposed rule text; and 
(2) provided additional data, justification, and support for its 
modified proposal. The full text of Amendment No. 1 is available on 
the Commission's website at: https://www.sec.gov/comments/sr-cboe-2020-051/srcboe2020051-7470738-221292.pdf.

    Section 19(b)(2) of the Act \5\ provides that within 45 days of the 
publication of 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 August 2, 2020. The Commission is extending this 45-day time period.

    The Commission finds it 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, as modified by 
Amendment No. 1, and the comments received. Accordingly, the 
Commission, pursuant to Section 19(b)(2) of the Act,\6\ designates 
September 16, 2020 as the date by which the Commission shall either 
approve or disapprove, or institute proceedings to determine whether to 
disapprove, the proposed rule change, as modified by Amendment No. 1 
(File No. SR-CBOE-2020-051).
