specific requirement that a Designated
Dealer execute eligible limit orders if
certain conditions occur in the primary
market (referred to as the ‘‘primary
market print protection’’ or the ‘‘limit
order protection’’ provision). Pursuant
to the proposal, dealers and members
would still be permitted, but not
required, to guarantee the execution of
a limit order as principal upon the
occurrence of a transaction in another
market. The Commission published the
proposed rule change for comment in
the Federal Register on June 27, 2006.3
The Commission received no comments
on the proposed rule change.
After careful consideration, the
Commission finds that the proposed
rule change is consistent with the
requirements of the Act and the rules
and regulations thereunder that are
applicable to a national securities
exchange.4 In particular, the
Commission believes that the proposed
rule change is consistent with Section
6(b)(5) of the Act,5 which requires
among other things, that the rules of the
Exchange are designed to promote just
and equitable principles of trade, to
remove impediments to and perfect the
mechanism of a free and open market
and a national market system, and, in
general, to protect investors and the
public interest.
The Commission notes that the
Exchange voluntarily enacted its rulebased execution guarantees in 1996,6
when the guarantees were used, among
other things, as a competitive tool to
attract order flow to the Exchange. The
Commission notes that it has approved
a substantially similar proposal of
another national securities exchange.7
In that context, the Commission
discussed how the environment had
changed since the adoption of voluntary
rule-based execution guarantees and
‘‘that consequently, the guarantees may
no longer serve to foster competition
between the markets.’’ 8 The
Commission notes that the deletion of
the rule-based mandate regarding limit
order protection does not in any way
affect the Exchange’s rules relating to
trading ahead prohibitions or best
execution obligations, or any other
3 See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 54018
(June 20, 2006), 71 FR 36576.
4 In approving this proposed rule change, the
Commission notes that it has considered the
proposed rule’s impact on efficiency, competition,
and capital formation. See 15 U.S.C. 78c(f).

No. SR–CSE–95–03).

dealer obligations within NSX’s rules. In
addition, the Commission notes that,
under the proposed rule change, dealers
and members would still be permitted,
but not required, to provide such
guarantees if they wished to do so.9
It is therefore ordered, pursuant to
Section 19(b)(2) of the Act,10 that the
proposed rule change (SR–NSX–2006–
06) be, and hereby is, approved.
For the Commission, by the Division of
Market Regulation, pursuant to delegated
authority.11
