Each time a change takes place in the Pilot Program Securities, the Exchange will issue circulars to notify CMMs of this change and shall provide them with adequate notice in order for them to make any required systems changes. The Commission believes that the proposed rule change, which is intended to alleviate capacity constraints on some market participants’ systems without adversely affecting the quality of the Exchange’s markets or the timely receipt of quote information, is consistent with the Act. The Commission notes that it has already approved internal quote mitigation strategies on other exchanges that relieve some market makers of the obligation to quote every series of every class to which they are appointed.8 It is therefore ordered, pursuant to Section 19(b)(2) of the Act,9 that the proposed rule change (SR–ISE–2007– 45), as modified by Amendment No. 1, be, and hereby is, approved. For the Commission, by the Division of Market Regulation, pursuant to delegated authority.10 Florence E. Harmon, Deputy Secretary. [FR Doc.

(‘‘Phlx’’ or ‘‘Exchange’’) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (‘‘Commission’’) the proposed rule change as described in Items I and II below, which Items have been prepared substantially by Phlx. Phlx filed the proposed rule change pursuant to section 19(b)(3)(A) of the Act 3 and Rule 19b–4(f)(6) thereunder,4 which renders it effective upon filing with the Commission. The Commission is publishing this notice to solicit comments on the proposed rule change from interested persons. I. Self-Regulatory Organization’s Statement of the Terms of Substance of the Proposed Rule Change The Phlx proposes to remove the trade through restrictions for IOC Cross Orders5 entered during the Pre Market Session6 or the Post Market Session7 on XLE, Phlx’s electronic equity trading platform. In addition, Phlx proposes to re-organize Phlx Rule 185(c)(2)(D), which should make it more readable. The text of the proposed rule change is available at https://www.phlx.com, the Exchange, and the Commission’s Public Reference Room. II. Self-Regulatory Organization’s Statement of the Purpose of, and Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change In its filing with the Commission, Phlx included statements concerning the purpose of and basis for the proposed rule change and discussed any comments it received on the proposed rule change. The text of these statements may be examined at the places specified in Item IV below. Phlx has prepared summaries, set forth in sections A, B, and C below, of the most significant aspects of such statements. A. Self-Regulatory Organization’s Statement of the Purpose of, and Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change 1. Purpose The purpose of the proposed rule change is to increase the competitiveness of XLE by allowing an additional circumstance in which IOC Cross Orders may trade through. In addition, Phlx proposes to make Phlx Rule 185(c)(2)(D) more readable by dividing the rule into subsections. Phlx accepts IOC Cross Orders on XLE during all three XLE trading sessions, from 8 a.m. until 6 p.m. An IOC Cross Order is a two-sided order that matches, immediately and automatically on XLE, the buy side and sell side identified in the order, unless the price of the order would impermissibly trade at or through other orders on XLE or at away 3 15 8 See Phlx Rule 1014(b)(ii)(D)(1); see also Amex Rule 994(c)(iv). 9 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(2). 10 17 CFR 200.30–3(a)(12). 1 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(1). 2 17 CFR 240.19b–4.

These four situations correspond with either exceptions10 to or an exemption11 from Rule 611(a) of Regulation NMS.12 At this time, Phlx proposes to add to Phlx Rule 185(c)(2)(D) another situation in which IOC Cross Orders may trade through the Protected NBBO. Proposed Phlx Rule 185(c)(2)(D)(v) would allow IOC Cross Orders that are entered during the Pre Market or Post Market Sessions to trade through the Protected NBBO. The Pre Market and Post Market Sessions take place outside of the hours 9:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. Rule 611(a) of Regulation NMS does not apply to trade throughs of, among other things, the Protected NBBO, outside of regular trading hours, which are 9:30 a.m. until 4 p.m.13 Therefore, Rule 611(a) of Regulation NMS would not prohibit IOC Cross Orders from trading through the Protected NBBO during the Pre Market or Post Market Sessions on XLE.14 2. Statutory Basis The Exchange believes that its proposal is consistent with section 6(b) of the Act 15 in general, and furthers the objectives of section 6(b)(5) of the Act 16 in particular, in that it is 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 8 See Phlx Rule 185(c)(2). Phlx Rule 1(dd). 10 Renumbered Phlx Rule 185(c)(2)(D)(i) corresponds with Rule 611(b)(4) of Regulation NMS, 17 CFR 242.611(b)(4). Renumbered Phlx Rule 185(c)(2)(D)(ii) corresponds with Rule 611(b)(5) of Regulation NMS, 17 CFR 242.611(b)(5). Renumbered Phlx Rule 185(c)(2)(D)(iii) corresponds with Rule 611(b)(7) of Regulation NMS, 17 CFR 242.611(b)(7). 11 Renumbered Phlx Rule 185(c)(2)(D)(iv) corresponds with Securities Exchange Act Release No. 54389 (August 31, 2006), 71 FR 52829 (September 7, 2006). 12 17 CFR 242.611(a). 13 As used in Rule 611(a) of Regulation NMS, 17 CFR 242.611(a), the term ‘‘trade through’’ only applies during regular trading hours. 17 CFR 242.600(b)(77). Rule 600(b)(64) of Regulation NMS, 17 CFR 242.600(b)(64), defines regular trading hours as ‘‘the time between 9:30 a.m. and 4 p.m. Eastern Time, or such other time as is set forth in the procedures established pursuant to § 242.605(a)(2).’’ At this time, no such other time has been set forth, therefore the regular trading hours for all purposes is 9:30 a.m. until 4 p.m. 14 Although Rule 611(a) of Regulation NMS does not prohibit trade throughs during these times, a broker’s duty of best execution still applies. See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 51808 (June 9, 2005) 70 FR 37496 (June 29, 2005) (text at footnote 338). 15 15 U.S.C. 78f(b). 16 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5). 9 See E:\FR\FM\21SEN1.SGM 21SEN1 Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 183 / Friday, September 21, 2007 / Notices system, and, in general to protect investors and the public interest. B. Self-Regulatory Organization’s Statement on Burden on Competition The Exchange does not believe that the proposed rule change will impose any burden on competition not necessary or appropriate in furtherance of the purposes of the Act. C. Self-Regulatory Organization’s Statement on Comments on the Proposed Rule Change Received From Members, Participants or Others Written comments were neither solicited nor received. III. Date of Effectiveness of the Proposed Rule Change and Timing for Commission Action Because the foregoing proposed rule change does not: (i) Significantly affect the protection of investors or the public interest; (ii) impose any significant burden on competition; and (iii) become operative for 30 days from the date on which it was filed, or such shorter time as the Commission may designate, if consistent with the protection of investors and public interest, it has become effective pursuant to section 19(b)(3)(A) of the Act 17 and Rule 19b–4(f)(6) thereunder.18 Normally, a proposed rule change filed under 19b–4(f)(6) may not become operative prior to 30 days after the date of filing. However, Rule 19b– 4(f)(6)(iii) 19 permits the Commission to designate a shorter time if such action is consistent with the protection of investors and the public interest. The Exchange has requested that the Commission waive the 30-day operative delay set forth in Rule 19b–4(f)(6)(iii) under the Act 20 because it permits activity that is currently permitted by the Chicago Stock Exchange (‘‘CHX’’) pursuant to CHX Article 20, Rule 5(a).21 The Commission believes that the 17 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A). CFR 240.19b–4(f)(6). 19 17 CFR 240.19b–4(f)(6). In addition, Rule 19b– 4(f)(6)(iii) requires that a self-regulatory organization submit to the Commission written notice of its intent to file the proposed rule change, along with a brief description and text of the proposed rule change, at least five business days prior to the date of filing of the proposed rule change, or such shorter time as designated by the Commission. The Commission notes that Phlx has satisfied the five-day pre-filing notice requirement. 20 17 CFR 240.19b–4(f)(6)(iii). 21 CHX Article 20, Rule 5(a) permits orders submitted to CHX to trade through orders on markets other than CHX if such trade through is not prohibited by Rule 611 of Regulation NMS, 17 CFR 242.611. Therefore, orders submitted to CHX outside of regular trading hours would be permitted to trade through orders on markets other than CHX. mstockstill on PROD1PC66 with NOTICES 18 17 VerDate Aug<31>2005 18:17 Sep 20, 2007 Jkt 211001 54091 earlier operative date is consistent with the protection of investors and the public interest because the proposed rule change permits the Exchange to implement without further delay a proposal that is similar to the trade through protection currently effective on CHX.

    Pursuant to section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934

``Exchange'') filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission 
(``Commission'') the proposed rule change as described in Items I and 
II below, which Items have been prepared substantially by Phlx. Phlx 
filed the proposed rule change pursuant to section 19(b)(3)(A) of the 
Act \3\ and Rule 19b-4(f)(6) thereunder,\4\ which renders it effective 
upon filing with the Commission. The Commission is publishing this 
notice to solicit comments on the proposed rule change from interested 
persons.

I. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Terms of Substance 
of the Proposed Rule Change

    The Phlx proposes to remove the trade through restrictions for IOC 
Cross Orders\5\ entered during the Pre Market Session\6\ or the Post 
Market Session\7\ on XLE, Phlx's electronic equity trading platform. In 
addition, Phlx proposes to re-organize Phlx Rule 185(c)(2)(D), which 
should make it more readable.

II. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Purpose of, and 
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change

    In its filing with the Commission, Phlx included statements 
concerning the purpose of and basis for the proposed rule change and 
discussed any comments it received on the proposed rule change. The 
text of these statements may be examined at the places specified in 
Item IV below. Phlx has prepared summaries, set forth in sections A, B, 
and C below, of the most significant aspects of such statements.

A. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Purpose of, and 
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change

1. Purpose
    The purpose of the proposed rule change is to increase the 
competitiveness of XLE by allowing an additional circumstance in which 
IOC Cross Orders may trade through. In addition, Phlx proposes to make 
Phlx Rule 185(c)(2)(D) more readable by dividing the rule into 
subsections. Phlx accepts IOC Cross Orders on XLE during all three XLE 
trading sessions, from 8 a.m. until 6 p.m. An IOC Cross Order is a two-
sided order that matches, immediately and automatically on XLE, the buy 
side and sell side identified in the order, unless the price of the 
order would impermissibly trade at or through other orders on XLE or at 
away markets.\8\ Currently, IOC Cross Orders may trade through the 
Protected NBBO\9\ in four different situations as described in Phlx 
Rule 185(c)(2)(D). These four situations correspond with either 
exceptions\10\ to or an exemption\11\ from Rule 611(a) of Regulation 
NMS.\12\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \8\ See Phlx Rule 185(c)(2).
    \9\ See Phlx Rule 1(dd).
    \10\ Renumbered Phlx Rule 185(c)(2)(D)(i) corresponds with Rule 
611(b)(4) of Regulation NMS, 17 CFR 242.611(b)(4). Renumbered Phlx 
Rule 185(c)(2)(D)(ii) corresponds with Rule 611(b)(5) of Regulation 
NMS, 17 CFR 242.611(b)(5). Renumbered Phlx Rule 185(c)(2)(D)(iii) 
corresponds with Rule 611(b)(7) of Regulation NMS, 17 CFR 
242.611(b)(7).
    \11\ Renumbered Phlx Rule 185(c)(2)(D)(iv) corresponds with 
Securities Exchange Act Release No. 54389 (August 31, 2006), 71 FR 
52829 (September 7, 2006).
    \12\ 17 CFR 242.611(a).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    At this time, Phlx proposes to add to Phlx Rule 185(c)(2)(D) 
another situation in which IOC Cross Orders may trade through the 
Protected NBBO. Proposed Phlx Rule 185(c)(2)(D)(v) would allow IOC 
Cross Orders that are entered during the Pre Market or Post Market 
Sessions to trade through the Protected NBBO. The Pre Market and Post 
Market Sessions take place outside of the hours 9:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. 
Rule 611(a) of Regulation NMS does not apply to trade throughs of, 
among other things, the Protected NBBO, outside of regular trading 
hours, which are 9:30 a.m. until 4 p.m.\13\ Therefore, Rule 611(a) of 
Regulation NMS would not prohibit IOC Cross Orders from trading through 
the Protected NBBO during the Pre Market or Post Market Sessions on 
XLE.\14\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \13\ As used in Rule 611(a) of Regulation NMS, 17 CFR 
242.611(a), the term ``trade through'' only applies during regular 
trading hours. 17 CFR 242.600(b)(77). Rule 600(b)(64) of Regulation 
NMS, 17 CFR 242.600(b)(64), defines regular trading hours as ``the 
time between 9:30 a.m. and 4 p.m. Eastern Time, or such other time 
as is set forth in the procedures established pursuant to Sec.  
242.605(a)(2).'' At this time, no such other time has been set 
forth, therefore the regular trading hours for all purposes is 9:30 
a.m. until 4 p.m.
    \14\ Although Rule 611(a) of Regulation NMS does not prohibit 
trade throughs during these times, a broker's duty of best execution 
still applies. See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 51808 (June 
9, 2005) 70 FR 37496 (June 29, 2005) (text at footnote 338).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

2. Statutory Basis
    The Exchange believes that its proposal is consistent with section 
6(b) of the Act \15\ in general, and furthers the objectives of section 
6(b)(5) of the Act \16\ in particular, in that it is 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.

    \16\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5).

B. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Burden on Competition

    The Exchange does not believe that the proposed rule change will 
impose any burden on competition not necessary or appropriate in 
furtherance of the purposes of the Act.

C. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Comments on the Proposed 
Rule Change Received From Members, Participants or Others

    Written comments were neither solicited nor received.

III. Date of Effectiveness of the Proposed Rule Change and Timing for 
Commission Action

    Because the foregoing proposed rule change does not:
    (i) Significantly affect the protection of investors or the public 
interest;
    (ii) impose any significant burden on competition; and
    (iii) become operative for 30 days from the date on which it was 
filed, or such shorter time as the Commission may designate, if 
consistent with the protection of investors and public interest, it has 
become effective pursuant to section 19(b)(3)(A) of the Act \17\ and 
Rule 19b-4(f)(6) thereunder.\18\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \17\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A).
    \18\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Normally, a proposed rule change filed under 19b-4(f)(6) may not 
become operative prior to 30 days after the date of filing. However, 
Rule 19b-4(f)(6)(iii) \19\ permits the Commission to designate a 
shorter time if such action is consistent with the protection of 
investors and the public interest. The Exchange has requested that the 
Commission waive the 30-day operative delay set forth in Rule 19b-
4(f)(6)(iii) under the Act \20\ because it permits activity that is 
currently permitted by the Chicago Stock Exchange (``CHX'') pursuant to 
CHX Article 20, Rule 5(a).\21\ The Commission believes that the earlier 
operative date is consistent with the protection of investors and the 
public interest because the proposed rule change permits the Exchange 
to implement without further delay a proposal that is similar to the 
trade through protection currently effective on CHX. For these reasons, 
the Commission designates the proposal to be operative upon filing with 
the Commission.\22\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \19\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6). In addition, Rule 19b-4(f)(6)(iii) 
requires that a self-regulatory organization submit to the 
Commission written notice of its intent to file the proposed rule 
change, along with a brief description and text of the proposed rule 
change, at least five business days prior to the date of filing of 
the proposed rule change, or such shorter time as designated by the 
Commission. The Commission notes that Phlx has satisfied the five-
day pre-filing notice requirement.
    \20\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6)(iii).
    \21\ CHX Article 20, Rule 5(a) permits orders submitted to CHX 
to trade through orders on markets other than CHX if such trade 
through is not prohibited by Rule 611 of Regulation NMS, 17 CFR 
242.611. Therefore, orders submitted to CHX outside of regular 
trading hours would be permitted to trade through orders on markets 
other than CHX.
    \22\ For purposes only of waiving the 30-day operative delay of 
this proposal, the Commission has considered the proposed rule's 
impact on efficiency, competition, and capital formation. 15 U.S.C. 
78c(f).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    At any time within 60 days of the filing of the proposed rule 
change, the Commission may summarily abrogate such rule change if it 
appears to the Commission that such action is necessary or appropriate 
in the public interest, for the protection of investors, or otherwise 
in furtherance of the purposes of the Act.
