L. 109–53; 119 Stat. 462, 483; 19 U.S.C. 4034) provides that certain entries of textile or apparel goods of designated eligible countries that are parties to the Dominican Republic—Central America—United States Free Trade Agreement (CAFTA– DR) made on or after January 1, 2004 may be liquidated or reliquidated at the applicable rate of duty for those goods established in the Schedule of the United States to Annex 3.3 of the CAFTA–DR. Section 205(b) of the Act requires the USTR to determine, in accordance with Article 3.20 of the CAFTA–DR, which CAFTA–DR countries are eligible countries for purposes of Section 205(a). Article 3.20 provides that importers may claim retroactive duty treatment for imports of certain textile or apparel goods entered on or after January 1, 2004 and before the entry into force of CAFTA–DR from those CAFTA–DR countries that will provide reciprocal retroactive duty treatment or a benefit for textile or apparel goods that is equivalent to retroactive duty treatment. Pursuant to Section 205(b) of the Act, I have determined that the Dominican Republic will provide an equivalent benefit for textile or apparel goods of the United States within the meaning of Article 3.20 of the CAFTA–DR. I therefore determine that the Dominican Republic is an eligible country for purposes of Section 205 of the Act. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Susan C. Schwab, U.S. Trade Representative. [FR Doc.

It appears to the Securities and Exchange Commission that there is a lack of current and accurate information concerning the securities of the issuers listed below. As set forth below for each issuer, questions have arisen regarding the adequacy and accuracy of publicly disseminated information concerning, among other things: (1) The companies’ assets, (2) the companies’ business operations, (3) the companies’ current financial condition, and/or (4) financing arrangements involving the issuance of the companies’ shares. 1.

VerDate Aug<31>2005 19:39 Apr 16, 2007 Jkt 211001 April 10, 2007. On March 6, 2006, the Boston Stock Exchange, Inc. (‘‘BSE’’ 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 Chapter X of the Boston Options Exchange (‘‘BOX’’) Rules, BOX’s minor rule violation plan (‘‘BOX MRVP’’). The Exchange filed Amendments No. 1 and 2 to the proposed rule change on June 28, 2006, and July 14, 2006, respectively. The proposed rule change, as amended, was published for comment in the Federal 1 15 2 17 PO 00000 U.S.C. 78s(b)(1). CFR 240.19b–4. Frm 00057 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 19221 Register on March 7, 2007.3 The Commission received no comments regarding the proposal. This order approves the proposed rule change, as modified by Amendments No. 1 and 2. The Exchange proposed to make the following actions subject to the BOX MRVP: • contrary exercise advice infractions (in violation of BOX Rule Chapter VII, Section 1(c), (d), (f), and (g)); • locked and crossed market infringements (in violation of BOX Rule Chapter XII, Section 4); • Market Maker assigned activity violations (in violation of BOX Rule Chapter VI, Section 4(e)); • Market Maker’s failure to respond to a request for a quote within the designated time limit (in violation of BOX Rule Chapter VI, Section 6(b)(ii)– (iii)); and • trade-through violations (in violation of BOX Rule Chapter XII, Section 3(a)). The sanctions imposed would include the application of a fine for each violation and an increased fine amount for repeat violations. In the instance of a trade-through violation, the rule proposal would also allow BOX Regulation to require the Options Participant 4 to disgorge any gains from transactions in violation of the tradethrough rules. The Commission 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.5 In particular, the Commission believes that the proposal is consistent with Section 6(b)(5) of the Act,6 which requires that the rules of an exchange be designed to promote just and equitable principles of trade, to remove impediments to and to 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 further believes that the proposal is consistent with Sections 6(b)(1) and 6(b)(6) of the Act,7 which require that the rules of an exchange enforce compliance with, and provide appropriate discipline for, violations of Commission and Exchange rules. In addition, because BSE Rule Chapter 3 See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 55373 (February 28, 2007), 72 FR 10276. 4 See BOX Rule Chapter I, Section 1(a)(40) for definition of ‘‘Options Participants.’’ 5 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). 6 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5). 7 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(1) and 78f(b)(6). E:\FR\FM\17APN1.SGM 17APN1
