Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 73, No. 217 / Friday, November 7, 2008 / Notices Rule 6.82(g)(1)(D). The Exchange proposes adding new Rule 6.82(g)(1)(D), which outlines the process the Exchange will undertake in the event an LMM has failed to meet performance standards pursuant Rule 6.82(g)(1), including the right to appeal pursuant to Rule 10.14. Conclusion NYSE Arca Rules 6.100 and 6.82 contain numerous obsolete and outdated provisions. The Exchange proposes eliminating those obsolete provisions of Rules 6.100 and 6.82 and renumbering the remaining relevant provisions of Rule 6.100 as part of the newly reconstituted Rule 6.82. The Exchange also proposes to add new relevant rules pertaining to the allocation of option issues and the evaluation of LMMs. Taken together, these changes will simplify and clarify the Exchange’s rules regarding option issues allocation. 2. Statutory Basis The proposed rule change is consistent with Section 6(b) 11 of the Act, in general, and furthers the objectives of Section 6(b)(5),12 in particular, in that it is designed to prevent fraudulent and manipulative acts and practices, to promote just and equitable principles of trade, to foster cooperation and coordination with persons engaged in facilitating transactions in securities, and to remove impediments to and perfect the mechanisms of a free and open market and a national market system. The Exchange proposes eliminating obsolete provisions of Rules 6.100 and 6.82 while adding new relevant rules pertaining to the allocation of option issues and the evaluation of LMMs. Taken together, these changes will simplify and clarify the Exchange’s rules regarding option issues allocation. 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 that is not necessary or appropriate in furtherance of the purposes of the Act. ebenthall on PROD1PC60 with NOTICES C. Self-Regulatory Organization’s Statement on Comments on the Proposed Rule Change Received From Members, Participants or Others The Exchange has neither solicited nor received written comments on the proposed rule change. 11 15 U.S.C. 78f(b). U.S.C. 78f(b)(5). 12 15 VerDate Aug<31>2005 15:04 Nov 06, 2008 Jkt 217001 III. Date of Effectiveness of the Proposed Rule Change and Timing for Commission Action The Exchange has filed the proposed rule change pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A)(iii) of the Act 13 and Rule 19b–4(f)(6) thereunder.14 Because the 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 prior to 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 the public interest, the proposed rule change has become effective pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A) of the Act 15 and Rule 19b–4(f)(6)(iii) thereunder.16 The Exchange further asserts that the proposed changes simply serve to clarify the rules of NYSE Arca regarding option issues allocation by eliminating obsolete provisions of Rules 6.100 and 6.82 while adding new relevant rules pertaining to the allocation of option issues and the evaluation of LMMs. For the foregoing reasons, the Exchange has designated this rule filing as a ‘‘noncontroversial’’ rule change under paragraph (f)(6) of Rule 19b–4.17 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.
