NYSE Rule 18 establishes a compensation fund and provides a procedure for compensating NYSE member claimants in the event of an Exchange system failure.6 The Commission recently approved Amex’s proposal to adopt a rule substantially similar to NYSE Rule 18.7 This rule, NYSE Alternext Equities Rule 18, provides a procedure for compensating NYSE Alternext member claimants in the event of an NYSE Alternext systems failure. Specifically, under NYSE Alternext Equities Rule 18, NYSE Alternext members and member organizations affected by a failure of the NYSE Alternext Trading Systems would have the right to submit claims for compensation to NYSE Alternext. NYSE Alternext’s Compensation Review Panel would then decide the validity of NYSE Alternext claims. Because NYSE Alternext will operate on the Exchange’s trading systems after the Equities Relocation, NYSE proposes to amend NYSE Rule 18 to provide a mechanism for NYSE Alternext itself to seek reimbursement from NYSE for the amounts that NYSE Alternext undertakes to pay out to NYSE Alternext members under NYSE Alternext Equities Rule 18 as a result of an Exchange system malfunction.8 Thus, after the NYSE Alternext Compensation Review Panel has determined the number and amount of claims that NYSE Alternext deems valid, NYSE Alternext would submit to the NYSE a separate claim for each valid claim made by NYSE Alternext members or member organizations, subject to the same requirements under NYSE Rule 18 as any other NYSE claimant. NYSE Alternext will not, however, be required to provide verbal notice of its claims to the Exchange’s Division of Floor Operations. In the event that the total amount of valid claims by NYSE members and 6 See Securities Exchange Act Release Nos. 56085 (July 17, 2007), 72 FR 40348 (July 24, 2007) (SR– NYSE–2007–09) (adopting NYSE Rule 18); 56718 (October 29, 2007), 72 FR 62506 (November 5, 2007) (SR–NYSE–2007–95) (approving certain amendments to NYSE Rule 18). For a complete discussion of Rule 18, see the Notice, supra note 4. 7 See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 34– 58705 (October 1, 2008) 73 FR 58995 (October 8, 2008) (SR–Amex–2008–63). 8 NYSE Alternext members and member organizations would not be able to submit their claims directly to the NYSE. VerDate Aug<31>2005 14:58 Oct 22, 2008 Jkt 217001 NYSE Alternext exceeds the available funds in the NYSE Rule 18 compensation fund, NYSE Alternext would receive a partial payment of claims pursuant to NYSE Rule 18(c), and NYSE Alternext’s obligation to compensate its members for valid claims would be reduced by a like percentage.9 In the event that a reduction is required, in calculating any such reduction, NYSE officials would consider each claim submitted by NYSE Alternext as a separate claim, so that all claimants from both the Exchange and NYSE Alternext will share equitably from the compensation fund. NYSE also proposes technical changes to NYSE Rule 18, including corrections to the numbering of certain subparagraphs of the Rule. III. Discussion and Commission Findings The Commission has carefully reviewed the proposed rule change and finds that it is consistent with the requirements of the Act and the rules and regulations thereunder applicable to a national securities exchange.10 In particular, the Commission finds that the proposed rule change is consistent with Section 6(b)(5) of the Act,11 which, among other things, requires that the rules of a national securities exchange be designed to promote just and equitable principles of trade, to foster cooperation and coordination with persons engaged in regulating 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. The Commission believes that the proposed amendments to NYSE Rule 18 provide for a fair and reasonable process by which NYSE Alternext may participate in the compensation fund established by the Exchange to reimburse claimants for losses suffered due to a malfunction of systems operated by the Exchange. 9 In the Notice, NYSE stated that it does not anticipate that the additional claims by NYSE Alternext would create a substantial burden on the fund in the event of a system malfunction in view of: (i) The probable volume of trading on NYSE Alternext; (ii) the fact that to date, the existing compensation fund has been sufficient to pay all valid claims in full; and (iii) the current amount available in the supplemental fund. Notice at 52440. 10 In approving this proposed rule change, the Commission has considered the proposed rule’s impact on efficiency, competition, and capital formation. See 15 U.S.C. 78c(f). 11 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5). PO 00000 Frm 00094 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 63225 IV. Conclusion It is therefore ordered, pursuant to Section 19(b)(2) of the Act,12 that the proposed rule change (SR–NYSE–2008– 78) be, and it hereby is, approved. For the Commission, by the Division of Trading and Markets, pursuant to delegated authority.13 Florence E. Harmon, Acting Secretary. [FR Doc.
