Federal Register / Vol. 71, No. 148 / Wednesday, August 2, 2006 / Notices
does not make any financial or
investment recommendation or
otherwise promote a product or service
of the member from coverage of the rule
and did not require correspondence
covered by the rule to be filed with the
Department. The Commission believes
that requiring pre-use approval by a
principal of correspondence sent to 25
or more existing retail customers within
any 30 calendar-day period
appropriately balances the needs of
members to contact existing customers
without being unduly burdened against
the goal of having communications with
retail customers that are fair and
balanced.
The Commission is not persuaded by
the commenters’ arguments that pre-use
approval of emails is not workable given
that pre-use approval is already required
for certain emails.37 The Commission
commends NASD for attempting to
address problems with correspondence,
rather than waiting for additional
inappropriate materials to reach retail
customers. Finally, the Commission
believes that NASD’s proposed
amendment to the rule text adequately
addresses concerns that the proposed
rule change lacks clarity.
V. Conclusion
It is therefore ordered, pursuant to
Section 19(b)(2) of the Act,38 that the
proposed rule change (SR–NASD–2006–
011), as amended, is approved.
For the Commission, by the Division of
Market Regulation, pursuant to delegated
authority.39

Assistant Secretary.

[Release No. 34–54223; File No. SR–NYSE–

Self-Regulatory Organizations; New
York Stock Exchange LLC; Order
Approving Proposed Rule Change To
Amend Section 902.02 of the Listed
Company Manual To Exempt
Companies Transferring From NYSE
Arca From Initial Listing Fees and the
Annual Fee for the Year of Such
Transfer
July 26, 2006.
On June 7, 2006, the New York Stock
Exchange LLC (‘‘NYSE’’ or ‘‘Exchange’’)
filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (‘‘Commission’’), pursuant
to 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 Section 902.02 of its
Listed Company Manual to provide that
there shall be no initial listing and no
prorated annual fee payable with
respect to the first partial calendar year
of listing for any company listed on
NYSE Arca, Inc. (‘‘NYSE Arca’’) that
transfers the listing of its primary class
of common shares to the Exchange. The
Commission published notice of the
proposal in the Federal Register on June
26, 2006.3 The Commission received no
comments on the proposal.
The Commission has reviewed
carefully the proposed rule change and
finds that the proposed rule change is
consistent with the requirements of the
Act and the rules and regulations
thereunder applicable to a national
securities exchange 4 and, in particular,
the requirements of Section 6 of the
Act 5 and the rules and regulations
thereunder. The Commission finds
specifically that the proposed rule
change is consistent with Sections
6(b)(4) 6 and 6(b)(5) of the Act,7 which
require that an exchange have rules that
provide for the equitable allocation of
reasonable dues, fees and other charges
among its members and other persons
using its facilities, and are designed to
remove impediments to and perfect the
mechanism of a free and open market
and a national market system and are
not designed to permit unfair

discrimination between issuers. The
Commission believes that the fee waiver
is reasonable, given the NYSE’s
representation that its review of
companies transferring from NYSE Arca
to the Exchange will be less costly than
the review of a transfer from other selfregulatory organizations. While the
Commission understands that the
Exchange will rely on the baseline
review of any NYSE Arca listed
company performed by NYSE
Regulation, the Commission notes that
the Exchange must conduct a thorough
regulatory review of companies
transferring from NYSE Arca to the
Exchange to ensure that the Exchange
can independently confirm that such
companies qualify for listing on the
Exchange. The Commission also
believes the proposed waiver may
enhance competition by making NYSE
Arca a more attractive listing venue and
a viable alternative to listing on Nasdaq.
It is therefore ordered, pursuant to
Section 19(b)(2) of the Act ,8 that the
proposed rule change (SR–NYSE–2006–
43) be, and it hereby is, approved.
For the Commission, by the Division of
Market Regulation, pursuant to delegated
