address the special concerns attendant
to the trading of hybrid securities like
the Notes. For example, Section 107A of
the Company Guide provides that the
only issuers satisfying substantial asset
and equity requirements may issue
securities, such as the Notes. In
addition, the Exchange’s ‘‘Other
Securities’’ listing standards further
require that the Notes have a market
value of at least $4 million.21 By
imposing the hybrid listing standards,
suitability, disclosure, and compliance
requirements noted above, the
Commission believes that the Exchange
has addressed adequately the potential
problems that could arise from the
hybrid nature of the Notes.
In approving the products, the
Commission recognizes that the DJIA is
a price-weighted index comprised of 30
common stocks chosen by the editors of
the WSJ as representative of the broad
market of U.S. industry, with each stock
affecting the DJIA in proportion to its
market price. Given the large trading
volume and capitalization of
compositions of the stocks underlying
the DJIA, the Commission believes that
the listing and trading of the Notes that
are linked to the DJIA should not
unduly impact the market for the
underlying securities comprising the
DJIA or raise manipulative concerns.
Moreover, the issuers of the
underlying securities comprising the
DJIA, are subject to reporting
requirements under the Act, and all of
the component stocks are either listed or
traded on, or traded through the
facilities of U.S. securities markets.
The Commission also believes that
any concerns that a broker-dealer, such
as Citigroup, or a subsidiary providing
a hedge for the issuer, will incur undue
position exposure are minimized by the
size of the Notes issuance in relation to
the net worth of Citigroup.22
Finally, the Commission notes that
the value of the DJIA will be
disseminated at least once every fifteen
seconds throughout the trading day. The
21 The Commission also notes that the 30
component stocks that comprise the DJIA are
reporting companies under the Act, and the Notes
will be registered under Section 12 of the Act.

Exchange represents that the DJIA will
be determined, calculated, and
maintained by the editors of the WSJ.
The Exchange has requested and the
Commission finds good cause for
approving the proposed rule change
prior to the thirtieth day after the date
of publication of notice of filing thereof
in the Federal Register. The
Commission believes that the Notes will
provide investors with an additional
investment choice and that accelerated
approval of the proposal will allow
investors to begin trading the Notes
promptly. In addition, the Commission
notes that it has previously approved
the listing and trading of similar Notes
and other hybrid securities based on the
Index.23 Accordingly, the Commission
believes that there is good cause,
consistent with Sections 6(b)(5) and
19(b)(2) of the Act,24 to approve the
proposal, on an accelerated basis.
