Federal Register / Vol. 73, No. 97 / Monday, May 19, 2008 / Notices
it is designed to promote just and
equitable principles of trade, to foster
cooperation and coordination with
persons engaged in regulating, clearing,
settling, processing information with
respect to, and facilitating transactions
in securities, 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.
With respect to the proposal to apply
the initial and continued listing
standards for warrants to rights to
purchase securities, the Commission
notes that it has approved the
application of such standards to rights
with respect to the rules of another
national securities exchange.16 The
Commission believes that, in the case of
warrants or rights, as applicable, the
Exchange’s proposal to permit the
underlying security to be listed and
trading on another national securities
exchange should benefit investors by
offering additional investment options
on the Exchange for warrants and rights
and, at the same time, protect such
investors, as long as the underlying
security satisfies the applicable initial
and continued listing standards of such
other national securities exchange. The
Commission notes that, with respect to
rights listed on the Exchange and based
on an underlying security listed on
another national securities exchange,
the Exchange will halt or suspend
trading in rights when the underlying
security is halted on the relevant
national securities exchange.17 The
Commission expects that the Exchange
will also monitor on a continuous basis
the application of the continued listing
standards under proposed NYSE Arca
Equities Rule 5.5(e) as they relate to
such rights. Under proposed NYSE Arca
Equities Rule 5.5(e), if the security
underlying a series of rights or warrants
is delisted by another national securities
exchange, the Exchange must delist
such rights.
With respect to the adoption of listing
standards for Units, the Commission
notes that it has approved substantially
similar standards for other national
securities exchanges.18 The Commission
believes that, in the case of Units based
on a debt security component, the
Exchange’s proposal to permit the issuer
16 See
supra notes 6 and 7.
Commission further notes that, by virtue of
the requirement that the security underlying the
right must be listed and trading on a national
securities exchange, such security will be subject to
last-sale reporting. As a result, the Commission
expects the Exchange, and the Exchange has
committed, to halt trading in a series of rights if the
underlying security is halted on the relevant
national securities exchange.

of such debt component to have equity
securities listed on another national
securities exchange should benefit
investors by offering additional
investment options on the Exchange for
Units.19 The Commission notes that,
with respect to Units listed on the
Exchange, the Exchange will halt or
suspend trading in such Units when the
trading of an underlying security
component is halted. In addition, the
Commission further notes that the
Exchange will monitor on a continuous
basis the application of the continued
listing standards under NYSE Arca
Equities Rule 5.5(a) as they relate to
such Units. Lastly, under the proposed
rule, if it appears that not enough Units
will be separated to allow the
components to meet the public
distribution and aggregate market value
requirements independently or there are
other concerns, the rule makes clear that
the Exchange should consider delisting
the components or Unit. This recognizes
the fact that although the rule allows the
aggregation of Units and components for
purposes of the applicable distribution
standards, the Exchange will need to
ensure that there is some minimal level
of liquidity in each component and Unit
and should consider delisting if the
public distribution or the aggregate
market value of the components or Unit
has become so reduced as to make
continued listing on the Exchange
inadvisable. In this regard, the Exchange
will take into account the individual
distribution values and the trading
characteristics of the component or Unit
and whether it would be in the public
interest for continued trading of such
component or Unit.20
The Commission believes that the
proposal should help to promote
transparency of the Exchange rules
relating to the initial and continued
listing of rights and Units and provide
clearer guidance for members and
investors trading in such securities. As
noted above, the security components
underlying a series of rights or Units, as
applicable, will be subject to last-sale
19 In the case of Units based on a debt security
component, the Commission notes that, if a series
of equity securities of the issuer of the debt security
component is delisted on a national securities
exchange, the Exchange would be expected to halt
trading in the related Units and institute delisting
proceedings for such Units.
20 The Commission notes that minimum
distribution requirements are extremely important
to ensure, among other things, the liquidity of a
security and an active public market. The changes
being approved for meeting the distribution
standards applicable to Units and their components
recognize the unique trading characteristics and
challenges that can occur in meeting the minimum
standards during the separation period of the Units,
while containing certain protections to ensure
certain minimum standards will be met.

reporting by virtue of being listed on the
Exchange or another national securities
exchange, and the Commission notes
that the Exchange will halt trading in
such series of rights or Units, as
applicable, if a security component
thereunder ceases to trade on the
relevant market or if such security
component is no longer subject to lastsale reporting and is delisted on a
national securities exchange. For the
foregoing reasons, the Commission
believes it is reasonable and consistent
with the Act for the Exchange to adopt
listing standards for rights and Units in
the manner described in the proposal.
IV. Conclusion
It is therefore ordered, pursuant to
Section 19(b)(2) of the Act,21 that the
proposed rule change (SR–NYSEArca–
2007–104), as modified by Amendment
No. 1 thereto, be, and it hereby is,
approved.
For the Commission, by the Division of
Trading and Markets, pursuant to delegated
authority.22

Deputy Secretary.
