Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 59 / Tuesday, March 29, 2005 / Notices
III. Discussion and Commission
Findings
After careful review, the Commission
finds that the proposed rule change, as
amended, is consistent with the
requirements of the Act and the rules
and regulations thereunder applicable to
a national securities exchange 5 and, in
particular, the requirements of section 6
of the Act.6 Specifically, the
Commission finds that the proposal to
convert an On-Floor Equity Governor
position into an On-Floor PBOT
Governor position is consistent with
section 6(b)(3) of the Act,7 which,
among other things, requires that an
exchange assure a fair representation of
members in the selection of its directors
and administration of its affairs.8
The Phlx’s Board of Governors is
currently composed of the Chairman of
the Board of Governors and 21 other
Governors. Five Governors (i.e., the OnFloor Governors) are required to be
representatives of the Exchange’s
trading floor—three from the options
trading floor and two from the equities
trading floor. Although the proposal
would convert one On-Floor Equity
Governor position into an On-Floor
PBOT Governor position, there still
would be three On-Floor Equity Options
Governors and one On-Floor Equity
Governor on the Phlx’s Board of
Governors. In addition, the proposal
would not alter the right of Phlx
members, through their member
organization representatives, to vote on
the nominees for the On-Floor Governor
positions, including the On-Floor PBOT
Governor.9 Moreover, the proposal
would not interfere with Phlx members’
right to submit independent
nominations for the On-Floor Governor
positions, including the On-Floor PBOT
5 The Commission has considered the proposed
rule change’s impact on efficiency, competition,
and capital formation. 15 U.S.C. 78c(f).
6 15 U.S.C. 78f.
7 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(3).
8 To the extent that the proposed rule change runs
counter to the Commission’s recent governance and
transparency proposals, Securities Exchange Act
Release No. 50699 (November 18, 2004), 69 CFR
71125 (December 8, 2004), the Phlx represents that
upon adoption of final rulemaking the Phlx will
conform its By-laws accordingly. Telephone
conversation among Scott Donnini, Vice President,
Phlx, Nancy Sanow, Assistant Director, Division of
Market Regulation (‘‘Division’’), Commission,
Gordon Fuller, Counsel to the Assistant Director,
Division, Commission and Geraldine Idrizi,
Attorney, Division, Commission, on January 26,
2005.
9 As a result of the Exchange’s recent
demutualization, Phlx members, through their
member organization’s designated representative,
vote on the nominees for the On-Floor Governor
positions and the nominees that are selected by
members must be elected by the holder of Phlx’s
Series A preferred stock. See Phlx By-laws, Article
III, Section 3–2.

Governor. Although recommendations
for the PBOT Governor position would
be submitted to the Phlx’s Nominating
and Elections Committee by the PBOT
Board of Governors, Phlx members,
through their member organization
representatives, can independently
nominate by written petition candidates
for On-Floor Governor positions, which
would include the PBOT Governor
position.10 Therefore, in the
Commission’s view, the proposal is
consistent with the Act’s requirement
that the Exchange assure the fair
representation of its members in the
selection of the Exchange’s directors.
The Commission finds good cause for
approving Amendment No. 1 to the
proposed rule change prior to the
thirtieth day after the date of the
publication of notice thereof in the
Federal Register. The Commission notes
that the amendment simply corrected a
reference to a section of the Act that was
contained in the original filing. The
Commission therefore believes that it is
appropriate to accelerate approval of the
amendment so that the proposed rule
change may be implemented on a timely
basis.
IV. Solicitation of Comments

V. Conclusion
For the foregoing reasons, the
Commission finds that the proposed
rule change, as amended, is consistent
with the Act and the rules and
regulations thereunder applicable to a
national securities exchange, and, in
particular, with section 6(b)(3) of the
Act.11
It is therefore ordered, pursuant to
section 19(b)(2) of the Act,12 that the
proposed rule change (SR–Phlx–2005–
11), as amended, is approved, and
Amendment No. 1 is approved on an
accelerated basis.
For the Commission, by the Division of
Market Regulation, pursuant to delegated
authority.13

Assistant Secretary.
