Administrator's Line of Succession Designation, No. 1-A, Revision 29, 79536 [E8-30774]

Download as PDF 79536 Federal Register / Vol. 73, No. 249 / Monday, December 29, 2008 / Notices consistent with the protection of investors and the public interest.10 The Exchange has requested that the Commission waive the 30-day operative delay, so that the proposed rule change may become operative upon filing. The Commission hereby grants the Exchange’s request and believes that waiving the 30-day operative delay is consistent with the protection of investors and the public interest.11 As a result of this action, the Exchange will be able to implement without undue delay a proposed rule change that reduces the likelihood of quotations or orders on NYSE Bonds from being stepped ahead of by an insignificant amount. Accordingly, the Commission designates the proposed rule change operative upon filing with the Commission. 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. IV. Solicitation of Comments Interested persons are invited to submit written data, views, and arguments concerning the foregoing, including whether the proposed rule change is consistent with the Act.

The Commission has determined to waive the five-day pre-filing notice requirement in this case. 11 For the purposes only of waiving the 30-day operative delay, the Commission has considered the proposed rule’s impact on efficiency, competition, and capital formation.

Designation is as follows:
    (a) In the event of my inability to perform the functions and 
duties of my position, or my absence from the office, the Deputy

unable to perform the functions and duties of the position or are 
absent from our offices, I designate the officials in listed order

Acting Administrator with full authority to perform all acts which the 
Administrator is authorized to perform:

myself in paragraph (a) above, means the following:
    (1) I am not present in the office and cannot be reasonably 
contacted by phone or other electronic means, and there is an immediate 
business necessity for the exercise of my authority; or
    (2) I am not present in the office and, upon being contacted by 
phone or other electronic means, I determine that I cannot exercise my 
authority effectively without being physically present in the office.
    (c) An individual serving in an acting capacity in any of the 
positions listed in subparagraphs (a) (1) through (5), unless 
designated as such by the Administrator, is not also included in this 
Line of Succession. Instead, the next non-acting incumbent in the Line 
of Succession shall serve as Acting Administrator.
    (d) This designation shall remain in full force and effect until 
revoked or superseded in writing by the Administrator, or by the Deputy 
Administrator when serving as Acting Administrator.
