previous displays.
The Vendor is required to submit the
new screen shot no later than at the time
it first commences to provide the new
or modified display to others.
The display requirements do not
apply insofar as the data recipient
distributes NYSE AMEX OpenBook data
to its officers, partners and employees or
to those of its affiliates.
2. Statutory Basis
The Exchange believes the proposed
rule change is consistent with and
furthers the objectives of Section 6(b)(5)
of the Act,8 in that it is designed to
promote just and equitable principles of
trade, 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
Exchange believes that this proposal is
in keeping with those principles by
promoting increased transparency
through the dissemination of NYSE
Amex OpenBook data.
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.
C. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement on Comments on the
Proposed Rule Change Received From
Members, Participants, or Others
The Exchange has not solicited, and
does not intend to solicit, comments
regarding this proposed rule change.
The Exchange has not received any
unsolicited written comments from
members or other interested parties.
III. Date of Effectiveness of the
Proposed Rule Change and Timing for
Commission Action
Because the foregoing proposed rule
change: (i) Does not significantly affect
the protection of investors or the public
interest; (ii) does not impose any
significant burden on competition; and
(iii) by its terms, does not become
operative for 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, it has
become effective pursuant to Section
19(b)(3)(A) of the Act 9 and Rule 19b–
4(f)(6) thereunder.10

The Exchange has requested that the
Commission waive the 30-day operative
delay so that the proposal may become
operative immediately upon filing in
order to immediately provide market
participants that use NYSE Amex
OpenBook with more information about
the current state of the NYSE Amex
market and provide increased
transparency to market participants. The
Commission believes such waiver is
consistent with the protection of
investors and the public interest.11
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.

submit written data, views, and
arguments concerning the foregoing,
including whether the proposed rule
change is consistent with the Act.

comments on the proposed rule change
from interested persons.
I. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement of the Terms of Substance of
the Proposed Rule Change
The CBOE proposes to amend Rule
6.53C, ‘‘Complex Orders on the Hybrid
System,’’ with respect to order and
quote types that may be entered to trade
against orders in the complex order
book (‘‘COB’’) system. The text of the
proposed rule change is available on the
Exchange’s Web site at (https://
www.cboe.org/Legal), at the CBOE’s
Office of the Secretary, and at the
Commission’s Public Reference Room.
II. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement of the Purpose of, and
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule
Change
In its filing with the Commission, the
Exchange included statements
concerning the purpose of, and basis for,
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
Under Rule 6.53C(c)(1), the Exchange
determines which classes and which
complex order origin types (i.e., nonbroker-dealer public customer, brokerdealers that are not Market-Makers or
specialists on an options exchange, and/
or Market-Makers or specialists on an
options exchange) are eligible for entry
into the COB and whether such complex
orders can route directly to the COB
and/or from PAR to the COB. Complex
orders not eligible to route to COB
(either directly or from PAR to COB)
route to PAR. In addition, Rule
6.53C(c)(ii)(3) provides in relevant part
that market participants, as defined in
Rule 6.45A or 6.45B, may submit orders
or quotes to trade against orders resting
in the COB.
Depending on the particular option
class, orders and quotes submitted by
market participants may or may not be
eligible to rest in COB. For example, the
Exchange may determine for a particular
option class that only non-broker-dealer
public customer and broker-dealers that
are not Market-Makers or specialists on
an options exchange are eligible to rest
VerDate Nov<24>2008
16:46 Jun 23, 2009
Jkt 217001
30195
in COB. For that class, Market-Maker
orders and quotes would not be eligible
to rest in COB, but may be submitted to
trade against orders resting in COB
pursuant to subparagraph (c)(ii)(3).
Currently, market participants whose
orders and quotes are not eligible to rest
in COB but who wish to trade against
orders resting in the COB may enter
limit orders using an immediate-orcancel (‘‘IOC’’) contingency to avoid
resting in COB. Alternatively, if an IOC
contingency is not used, a market
participant needs to cancel any
remaining volume for a limit order or
quote after the limit order or quote
trades against an order resting in COB.
The Exchange now proposes to amend
Rule 6.53C(c)(ii)(3) to provide that
market participants entering orders or
quotes that are not eligible to rest in the
COB may only enter IOC orders, and
such other order or quote types as the
Exchange may determine on a class-byclass basis, to trade against orders
resting in the COB. For orders types that
are not eligible to rest in or trade against
the COB, the orders will be
automatically routed to PAR or at the
order entry firm’s discretion to the order
entry firm’s booth. For quotes types that
are not eligible to rest in or trade against
the COB, the quotes will be
automatically cancelled. In this regard,
the Exchange notes that only MarketMakers may enter quotes. The Exchange
also notes that, should the Exchange
determine that Market-Maker quotes are
not eligible to rest in or trade against the
COB, Market-Makers would at a
minimum be permitted to submit IOC
orders to trade against the COB.
Finally, the Exchange is also
proposing changes to the text of Rule
6.53C(c)(i) to clarify that complex orders
not eligible to rest in or trade against the
COB will route to PAR or at the order
entry firm’s discretion to the order entry
firm’s booth. Currently the rule text in
this subparagraph only references that
such orders will route to PAR.
general, to protect investors and the
public interest. In particular, the
Exchange believes that the addition of
the new functionality further automates
the handling of complex orders and
quotes in accordance with the
requirements of Rule 6.53C.
2. Statutory Basis
The Exchange believes that the
proposed rule change is consistent with
Section 6(b) of the Act 3 in general and
furthers the objectives of Section 6(b)(5)
of the Act 4 in particular in that it is
designed to foster cooperation and
coordination with persons engaged in
regulating, clearing, settling, processing
information with respect to, and
facilitating transactions in securities, to
remove impediments to and perfect the
mechanism of a free and open market
and a national market system, and, in

operated by the Exchange, including
those executions that occur in the event
of a system disruption or system
malfunction.
Prior to the implementation of NYSE
Rule 128 on January 28, 2008,4 the
NYSE did not have a rule providing the
Exchange with the authority to cancel or
adjust clearly erroneous trades of
securities executed on or through the
systems and facilities of the NYSE.
In order for the NYSE to be consistent
with other national securities exchanges
which have some version of a clearly
erroneous execution rule, the Exchange
is drafting an amended clearly
erroneous rule which will accommodate
such other exchanges but will be
appropriate for the NYSE market model.
The NYSE notes that the Commission
approved an amended clearly erroneous
execution rule for Nasdaq in May 2008.5
On July 28, 2008, the Exchange filed
with the SEC a request to extend the
operation of interim Rule 128 until
October 1, 2008 6 in order to review the
provisions of Nasdaq’s clearly erroneous
rule and to consider integrating similar
standards into its own amendment to
Rule 128. On October 1, 2008 7, the
Exchange filed with the SEC a further
request to extend the operation of
interim Rule 128 until January 9, 2009
in order to consider integrating similar
standards into the amendment to Rule
128. On January 9, 2009 8, the Exchange
filed with the SEC a request to extend
the operation of interim Rule 128 until
March 9, 2009, indicating that the
Exchange was still in the process of
reviewing the Nasdaq rule with a view
towards incorporating certain
provisions into the amendment of
interim Rule 128.
On February 10, 2009, NYSE Arca
submitted a proposal to the SEC to
amend its clearly erroneous rule. The
NYSE Arca proposed rule differed in
certain respects from the Nasdaq clearly
erroneous rule. On March 9, 2009, the
Exchange filed with the SEC a request
to extend the operation of interim Rule
128 until June 9, 2009 9 to finalize

on June 16, 2009, the Chicago Board Options Exchange, Incorporated

comments on the proposed rule change from interested persons.

I. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Terms of Substance
of the Proposed Rule Change
The CBOE proposes to amend Rule 6.53C, ``Complex Orders on the
Hybrid System,'' with respect to order and quote types that may be
entered to trade against orders in the complex order book (``COB'')
system. The text of the proposed rule change is available on the
Exchange's Web site at (https://www.cboe.org/Legal), at the CBOE's
Office of the Secretary, and at the Commission's Public Reference Room.
II. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Purpose of, and
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change
In its filing with the Commission, the Exchange included statements
concerning the purpose of, and basis for, 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
Under Rule 6.53C(c)(1), the Exchange determines which classes and
which complex order origin types (i.e., non-broker-dealer public
customer, broker-dealers that are not Market-Makers or specialists on
an options exchange, and/or Market-Makers or specialists on an options
exchange) are eligible for entry into the COB and whether such complex
orders can route directly to the COB and/or from PAR to the COB.
Complex orders not eligible to route to COB (either directly or from
PAR to COB) route to PAR. In addition, Rule 6.53C(c)(ii)(3) provides in
relevant part that market participants, as defined in Rule 6.45A or
6.45B, may submit orders or quotes to trade against orders resting in
the COB.
Depending on the particular option class, orders and quotes
submitted by market participants may or may not be eligible to rest in
COB. For example, the Exchange may determine for a particular option
class that only non-broker-dealer public customer and broker-dealers
that are not Market-Makers or specialists on an options exchange are
eligible to rest in COB. For that class, Market-Maker orders and quotes
would not be eligible to rest in COB, but may be submitted to trade
against orders resting in COB pursuant to subparagraph (c)(ii)(3).
Currently, market participants whose orders and quotes are not
eligible to rest in COB but who wish to trade against orders resting in
the COB may enter limit orders using an immediate-or-cancel (``IOC'')
contingency to avoid resting in COB. Alternatively, if an IOC
contingency is not used, a market participant needs to cancel any
remaining volume for a limit order or quote after the limit order or
quote trades against an order resting in COB.
The Exchange now proposes to amend Rule 6.53C(c)(ii)(3) to provide
that market participants entering orders or quotes that are not
eligible to rest in the COB may only enter IOC orders, and such other
order or quote types as the Exchange may determine on a class-by-class
basis, to trade against orders resting in the COB. For orders types
that are not eligible to rest in or trade against the COB, the orders
will be automatically routed to PAR or at the order entry firm's
discretion to the order entry firm's booth. For quotes types that are
not eligible to rest in or trade against the COB, the quotes will be
automatically cancelled. In this regard, the Exchange notes that only
Market-Makers may enter quotes. The Exchange also notes that, should
the Exchange determine that Market-Maker quotes are not eligible to
rest in or trade against the COB, Market-Makers would at a minimum be
permitted to submit IOC orders to trade against the COB.
Finally, the Exchange is also proposing changes to the text of Rule
6.53C(c)(i) to clarify that complex orders not eligible to rest in or
trade against the COB will route to PAR or at the order entry firm's
discretion to the order entry firm's booth. Currently the rule text in
this subparagraph only references that such orders will route to PAR.
2. Statutory Basis
The Exchange believes that the proposed rule change is consistent
with Section 6(b) of the Act \3\ in general and furthers the objectives
of Section 6(b)(5) of the Act \4\ in particular in that it is designed
to foster cooperation and coordination with persons engaged in
regulating, clearing, settling, processing information with respect to,
and facilitating 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. In particular, the Exchange believes that the addition of the
