market indexes of the foregoing. IndexLinked Securities are the nonconvertible debt of an issuer that have
a term of at least one year but not greater
than thirty years. Despite the fact that
Index-Linked Securities are linked to at
least one underlying index or asset
(‘‘Reference Asset’’), each trade as a
single, exchange-listed security.
Accordingly, rules pertaining to the
listing and trading of standard equity
options would apply to options on
Index-Linked Securities.
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 applicable to
a national securities exchange 6 and, in
particular, the requirements of Section 6
of the Act.7 Specifically, the
Commission finds that the proposed
rule change is consistent with Section
6(b)(5) of the Act,8 which requires,
among other things, that the rules of a
national securities exchange be
designed 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.

Listing and Trading of Options on
Index-Linked Securities
As set out more fully in the
Exchange’s notice of its proposal, NYSE
Arca’s proposed rules include
requirements regarding initial and
continued listing standards, the
creation/redemption process for IndexLinked Securities, and trading halts.
Index-Linked Securities must be traded
through a national securities exchange
or through the facilities of a national
securities association, and must be
‘‘NMS stock’’ as defined under Rule 600
of Regulation NMS.9
The Commission notes that, pursuant
to the proposed NYSE Arca Rules
5.3(j)(3) and 5.4(m), Index-Linked
Securities will be subject to the initial
and continuing eligibility standards for
underlying securities provided in NYSE
Arca Rules 5.3 and 5.4, as applicable. In
particular, to be options eligible, an
Index-Linked Security must either meet
the criteria and guidelines for
underlying securities set forth in NYSE
Arca Rule 5.3(a), or alternately, the
Index-Linked Securities must be
redeemable at the option of the holder
at least on a weekly basis through the

Commission has considered the proposed rule’s

issuer at a price related to the applicable
underlying Reference Asset, and the
issuing company must be obligated to
issue or repurchase the securities in
aggregation units for cash or cash
equivalents satisfactory to the issuer of
Index-Linked Securities which underlie
the option as described in the IndexLinked Securities prospectus.
To continue to be options eligible, the
Index-Linked Security must remain an
NMS stock listed on a national
securities exchange. The Exchange will
also consider the suspension of opening
transactions in any series of options of
the class covering Index-Linked
Securities where the Index-Linked
Security does not satisfy the
requirements set out in proposed NYSE
Arca Rule 5.4(m). These include: (1)
Continued compliance with NYSE Arca
Rule 5.3(j); (2) compliance with NYSE
Arca 5.4(b) or, for options covering
Index-Linked Securities approved
pursuant to NYSE Arca Rule 5.3(j)(3)(B),
continuing to be an NMS stock listed on
a national securities exchange; and (3)
the value of the underlying Reference
Asset continues to be calculated and
available. In addition, the Exchange
retains discretion to suspend opening
transactions in options on Index-Linked
Securities where conditions make
further dealings in such options
inadvisable.
The Exchange represented that the
addition of options on Index-Linked
Securities will not have any effect on
Exchange rules pertaining to position
and exercise limits 10 or margin.11
Surveillance
The Commission notes that Exchange
has represented that it will implement
surveillance procedures for options on
Index-Linked Securities, including
adequate comprehensive surveillance
sharing agreements with markets trading
in non-U.S. components, as applicable.
NYSE Arca further represented that
these procedures will be adequate to
properly monitor Exchange trading of
options on Index-Linked Securities and
to deter and detect violations of
Exchange rules. This order is based on
these representations.
It is therefore ordered, pursuant to
Section 19(b)(2) of the Act,12 that the
proposed rule change (SR–NYSEArca–
2008–57) is hereby approved.
