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. The
Exchange 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 enable the listing and
trading of options on the SPDR Gold
Trust (the ‘‘Gold ETF’’) on BOX.
Currently, Section 3(i) of Chapter IV
of the BOX Rules provides that
securities deemed appropriate for
options trading shall include shares or
other securities (‘‘Exchange-Traded
Fund Shares’’) that are traded on a
national securities exchange and are
defined as an ‘‘NMS’’ stock under Rule
600 of Regulation NMS, and that (i)
Represent interests in registered
investment companies (or series thereof)
organized as open-end management
investment companies, unit investment
trusts or similar entities that hold
portfolios of securities and/or financial
instruments, including, but not limited
to, stock index futures contracts, options
on futures, options on securities and
indices, equity caps, collars and floors,
swap agreements, forward contracts,
repurchase agreements and reverse
repurchase agreements (the ‘‘Financial
Instruments’’) and money market
instruments, including, but not limited
to, U.S. government securities and
repurchase agreements (the ‘‘Money
Market Instruments’’) comprising or
otherwise based on or representing
investments in broad-based indexes or
portfolios of securities and/or Financial
Instruments and Money Market
Instruments (or that hold securities in
one or more other registered investment
companies that themselves hold such
portfolios of securities and/or Financial
Instruments and Money Market
Instruments) or (ii) represent interests in
a trust that holds a specified non-U.S.
currency or currencies deposited with
the trust when aggregated in some
specified minimum number may be
surrendered to the trust by the
beneficial owner to receive the specified
non-U.S. currency or currencies and
pays the beneficial owner interest and
other distributions on the deposited
non-U.S. currency or currencies, if any,
declared and paid by the trust or (iii)
represent commodity pool interests
PO 00000
Frm 00055
Fmt 4703

principally engaged, directly or
indirectly, in holding and/or managing
portfolios or baskets of securities,
commodity futures contracts, options on
commodity futures contracts, swaps,
forward contracts and/or options on
physical commodities and/or non-U.S.
currency. The proposed rule change
would expand the types of ETFs that
may be approved for options trading on
BOX to include the SPDR Gold Trust.
Apart from allowing the SPDR Gold
Trust to be an underlying for options
traded on BOX as described above, the
listing standards for ETFs would remain
unchanged from those that apply under
current BOX rules. In addition to
satisfying the aforementioned listing
standards in Section 3(i) of Chapter IV
of the BOX Rules, the Gold ETF must be
traded on a national securities exchange
and must be defined as an ‘‘NMS stock’’
under Rule 600 of Regulation NMS. The
Gold ETF must also either: (1) Meet the
criteria and guidelines of paragraphs (a)
and (b) under Section 3 of Chapter IV of
the BOX Rules (Criteria for Underlying
Securities); or (2) be available for
creation or redemption each business
day from and through the issuing trust,
investment company, commodity pool
or other entity in cash or in kind at a
price related to net asset value, and the
issuer is obligated to issue the Gold ETF
in a specified aggregate number even if
some or all of the investments and/or
cash required to be deposited have not
been received by the issuer, subject to
the condition that the person obligated
to deposit the investment assets has
undertaken to deliver them as soon as
possible and such undertaking is
secured by the delivery and
maintenance of collateral consisting of
cash or cash equivalents satisfactory to
the issuer of the Gold ETF, all as
described in the Gold ETF’s prospectus.
The Exchange proposes that the
current applicable continued listing
standards for options on ETFs would
apply to options on the SPDR Gold
Trust. Specifically, as set forth in
Section 4(h) of Chapter IV of the BOX
Rules, the Gold ETF approved for
options trading will not be deemed to
meet the requirements for continued
approval, and the Exchange will not
open for trading any additional series of
options contracts if the Gold ETF ceases
to be an ‘‘NMS stock,’’ or the Gold ETF
is delisted, halted or suspended from
trading on its primary market or if any
of the following circumstances occur:
(1) Following the initial twelve-month
period beginning upon the
commencement of trading of the Gold
ETF, there are fewer than 50 record and/
or beneficial holders of the Gold ETF for
30 or more consecutive trading days; (2)
