The Commission is publishing this notice to solicit 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 Exchange proposes to amend NYSE Rule 123C(8)(a)(1) to extend the operation of the pilot to temporarily suspend certain NYSE requirements relating to the closing of securities on the Exchange until the earlier of Securities and Exchange Commission approval to make such pilot permanent or December 31, 2009.

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 self-regulatory organization 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 those 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 parts of such statements. A. Self-Regulatory Organization’s Statement of the Purpose of, and Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change 1. Purpose NYSE Rule 123C(8)(a)(1) allows the Exchange to temporarily suspend certain rule requirements at the close when extreme order imbalances may cause significant dislocation to the closing price. The rule has operated on a pilot basis since April 2009 (‘‘Extreme Order Imbalances Pilot’’ or Pilot).4 Through this filing, NYSE proposes to extend the Pilot until the earlier of Securities and Exchange Commission approval to make such Pilot permanent or December 31, 2009.5 Background Pursuant to NYSE Rule 123C(8)(a)(1), the Exchange may suspend NYSE Rule 52 (Hours of Operation) to resolve an extreme order imbalance that may result in a closing price dislocation at the close as a result of an order entered into Exchange systems, or represented to a DMM orally at or near the close.6 The provisions of NYSE Rule 123C(8)(a)(1) operate as the Extreme Order Imbalance Pilot. As a condition of the approval to operate the Pilot, the Exchange committed to provide the Commission with information regarding: (i) How often a Rule 52 temporary suspension pursuant to the Pilot was invoked during the six months following its approval; and (ii) the Exchange’s determination as to how to proceed with technical modifications to reconfigure 4 See Securities and Exchange Act Release No. 597755 [sic] (April 13, 2009) 74 FR 18009 (April 20, 2009)(SR–NYSE–2009–15). 5 The Exchange notes that parallel changes are proposed to be made to the rules of NYSE Amex LLC. See SR–NYSE–Amex–2009–70. 6 See NYSE Rule 123C(8)(a)(1). PO 00000 Frm 00071 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 Exchange systems to accept orders electronically after 4:00 p.m. The Extreme Order Imbalance Pilot is scheduled to end operation on October 13, 2009. The Exchange is currently preparing a rule filing seeking permission to make the provisions of the Pilot permanent with certain modifications but does not expect that filing to be completed and approved by the Commission before October 13, 2009. Proposal To Extend the Operation of the Extreme Order Imbalance Pilot The Exchange established the Extreme Order Imbalance Pilot to create a mechanism for ensuring a fair and orderly close when interest is received at or near the close that could negatively affect the closing transaction. The Exchange believes that this tool has proved very useful to resolve an extreme order imbalance that may result in a closing price dislocation at the close as a result of an order entered into Exchange systems, or represented to a DMM orally at or near the close. As the Exchange has previously stated, invocation of the provisions of NYSE Rule 123C(8) to attract offsetting interest is intended to be used for extreme and likely rare circumstances where there exists such a large imbalance at the close that a DMM is unable to close the security without significantly dislocating the price of the security. This is evidenced by the fact that during the course of the Pilot, the Exchange invoked the provisions of NYSE Rule 123C(8), including the provisions of the Extreme Order Imbalance Pilot pursuant to NYSE Rule 123C(8)(a)(1), in only one security on August 31, 2009. In addition, during the operation of the Pilot, the Exchange determined that it would not be as onerous as previously believed to modify Exchange systems to accept orders electronically after 4 p.m. The Exchange anticipates that such system modifications could be completed by December 31, 2009. Given the above, the Exchange believes that provisions governing the Extreme Order Imbalance Pilot should be made permanent. Through this filing the Exchange seeks to extend the current operation of the Pilot in order to allow the Exchange to formally submit a filing to the Commission to convert the provisions governing the Pilot to permanent rules and complete the technological modifications required to accept orders electronically after 4 p.m. The Exchange therefore request and [sic] extension from the current expiration date of October 13, 2009, until the earlier of Securities and Exchange E:\FR\FM\19OCN1.SGM 19OCN1 Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 200 / Monday, October 19, 2009 / Notices Commission approval to make such Pilot permanent or December 31, 2009. 2. Statutory Basis The basis under the Act for this proposed rule change is the requirement under Section 6(b)(5) 7 that an Exchange have rules that are 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 the instant filing is consistent with these principles. Specifically an extension will allow the Exchange to: (i) Prepare and submit a filing to make the provisions governing the Extreme Order Imbalance Pilot permanent; (ii) have such filing complete public notice and comment period; and (iii) complete the 19b–4 approval process. The rule operates to protect investors and the public interest by ensuring that the closing price at the Exchange is not significantly dislocated from the last sale price by virtue of an extreme order imbalance at or near the close. 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 No written comments were solicited or received with respect to the proposed rule change. sroberts on DSKD5P82C1PROD with NOTICES 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) 8 of the Act and Rule 19b–4(f)(6) 9 thereunder. Because the foregoing proposed rule change: (1) Does not significantly affect the protection of investors or the public interest; (2) does not impose any significant burden on competition; and (3) by its terms, does not become operative for 30 days after the date of filing, 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 7 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5). 8 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A)(iii). 9 17 CFR 240.19b–4(f)(6). VerDate Nov<24>2008 16:51 Oct 16, 2009 Jkt 220001 Section 19(b)(3)(A) of the Act and Rule 19b–4(f)(6) thereunder. A proposed rule change filed under Rule 19b–4(f)(6) normally does not become operative for 30 days after the date of filing.10 However, Rule 19b– 4(f)(6)(iii) permits the Commission to designate a shorter time if such action is consistent with the protection of investors and the public interest. The Exchange requested that the Commission waive the 30-day operative delay, as specified in Rule 19b– 4(f)(6)(iii),11 which would make the rule change operative immediately. The Exchange believes that continuation of the Pilot does not burden competition and would operate to protect investors and the public interest by ensuring that the closing price at the Exchange is not significantly dislocated from the last sale price by virtue of an extreme order imbalance at or near the close. The Commission believes that waiving the 30-day operative delay is consistent with the protection of investors and the public interest because it would allow the Pilot to continue without interruption while the Exchange works towards submitting a separate proposal to make the Pilot permanent. Accordingly, the Commission designates the proposed rule change as operative upon filing with the Commission.12 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.13 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. Comments may be submitted by any of the following methods: 10 17 CFR 240.19b–4(f)(6)(iii). In addition, Rule 19b–4(f)(6)(iii) requires the self-regulatory organization to give the Commission notice of its intent to file the proposed rule change, along with a brief description and text of the proposed rule change, at least five business days prior to the date of filing of the proposed rule change, or such shorter time as designated by the Commission. NYSE has satisfied this requirement. 11 17 CFR 240.19b–4(f)(6)(iii). 12 For purposes only of waiving the operative delay for this proposal, the Commission has considered the proposed rule’s impact on efficiency, competition, and capital formation.

I. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Terms of Substance 
of the Proposed Rule Change

    The Exchange proposes to amend NYSE Rule 123C(8)(a)(1) to extend 
the operation of the pilot to temporarily suspend certain NYSE 
requirements relating to the closing of securities on the Exchange 
until the earlier of Securities and Exchange Commission approval to 
make such pilot permanent or December 31, 2009. The text of the 
proposed rule change is available at the Exchange, the Commission's 
Public Reference Room, and https://www.nyse.com.

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 self-regulatory organization 
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 those 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 parts of such statements.

A. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Purpose of, and 
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change

1. Purpose
    NYSE Rule 123C(8)(a)(1) allows the Exchange to temporarily suspend 
certain rule requirements at the close when extreme order imbalances 
may cause significant dislocation to the closing price. The rule has 
operated on a pilot basis since April 2009 (``Extreme Order Imbalances 
Pilot'' or Pilot).\4\ Through this filing, NYSE proposes to extend the 
Pilot until the earlier of Securities and Exchange Commission approval 
to make such Pilot permanent or December 31, 2009.\5\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ See Securities and Exchange Act Release No. 597755 [sic] 
(April 13, 2009) 74 FR 18009 (April 20, 2009)(SR-NYSE-2009-15).
    \5\ The Exchange notes that parallel changes are proposed to be 
made to the rules of NYSE Amex LLC. See SR-NYSE-Amex-2009-70.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Background
    Pursuant to NYSE Rule 123C(8)(a)(1), the Exchange may suspend NYSE 
Rule 52 (Hours of Operation) to resolve an extreme order imbalance that 
may result in a closing price dislocation at the close as a result of 
an order entered into Exchange systems, or represented to a DMM orally 
at or near the close.\6\ The provisions of NYSE Rule 123C(8)(a)(1) 
operate as the Extreme Order Imbalance Pilot.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ See NYSE Rule 123C(8)(a)(1).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    As a condition of the approval to operate the Pilot, the Exchange 
committed to provide the Commission with information regarding: (i) How 
often a Rule 52 temporary suspension pursuant to the Pilot was invoked 
during the six months following its approval; and (ii) the Exchange's 
determination as to how to proceed with technical modifications to 
reconfigure Exchange systems to accept orders electronically after 4:00 
p.m.
    The Extreme Order Imbalance Pilot is scheduled to end operation on 
October 13, 2009. The Exchange is currently preparing a rule filing 
seeking permission to make the provisions of the Pilot permanent with 
certain modifications but does not expect that filing to be completed 
and approved by the Commission before October 13, 2009.
Proposal To Extend the Operation of the Extreme Order Imbalance Pilot
    The Exchange established the Extreme Order Imbalance Pilot to 
create a mechanism for ensuring a fair and orderly close when interest 
is received at or near the close that could negatively affect the 
closing transaction. The Exchange believes that this tool has proved 
very useful to resolve an extreme order imbalance that may result in a 
closing price dislocation at the close as a result of an order entered 
into Exchange systems, or represented to a DMM orally at or near the 
close.
    As the Exchange has previously stated, invocation of the provisions 
of NYSE Rule 123C(8) to attract offsetting interest is intended to be 
used for extreme and likely rare circumstances where there exists such 
a large imbalance at the close that a DMM is unable to close the 
security without significantly dislocating the price of the security. 
This is evidenced by the fact that during the course of the Pilot, the 
Exchange invoked the provisions of NYSE Rule 123C(8), including the 
provisions of the Extreme Order Imbalance Pilot pursuant to NYSE Rule 
123C(8)(a)(1), in only one security on August 31, 2009.
    In addition, during the operation of the Pilot, the Exchange 
determined that it would not be as onerous as previously believed to 
modify Exchange systems to accept orders electronically after 4 p.m. 
The Exchange anticipates that such system modifications could be 
completed by December 31, 2009.
    Given the above, the Exchange believes that provisions governing 
the Extreme Order Imbalance Pilot should be made permanent. Through 
this filing the Exchange seeks to extend the current operation of the 
Pilot in order to allow the Exchange to formally submit a filing to the 
Commission to convert the provisions governing the Pilot to permanent 
rules and complete the technological modifications required to accept 
orders electronically after 4 p.m. The Exchange therefore request and 
[sic] extension from the current expiration date of October 13, 2009, 
until the earlier of Securities and Exchange

[[Page 53533]]

Commission approval to make such Pilot permanent or December 31, 2009.
2. Statutory Basis
    The basis under the Act for this proposed rule change is the 
requirement under Section 6(b)(5) \7\ that an Exchange have rules that 
are 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 the 
instant filing is consistent with these principles. Specifically an 
extension will allow the Exchange to: (i) Prepare and submit a filing 
to make the provisions governing the Extreme Order Imbalance Pilot 
permanent; (ii) have such filing complete public notice and comment 
period; and (iii) complete the 19b-4 approval process. The rule 
operates to protect investors and the public interest by ensuring that 
the closing price at the Exchange is not significantly dislocated from 
the last sale price by virtue of an extreme order imbalance at or near 
the close.

    \7\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

    No written comments were solicited or received with respect to the 
proposed rule change.

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) \8\ of the Act and Rule 19b-4(f)(6) \9\ thereunder. 
Because the foregoing proposed rule change: (1) Does not significantly 
affect the protection of investors or the public interest; (2) does not 
impose any significant burden on competition; and (3) by its terms, 
does not become operative for 30 days after the date of filing, 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 
and Rule 19b-4(f)(6) thereunder.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \8\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A)(iii).
    \9\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    A proposed rule change filed under Rule 19b-4(f)(6) normally does 
not become operative for 30 days after the date of filing.\10\ However, 
Rule 19b-4(f)(6)(iii) permits the Commission to designate a shorter 
time if such action is consistent with the protection of investors and 
the public interest. The Exchange requested that the Commission waive 
the 30-day operative delay, as specified in Rule 19b-4(f)(6)(iii),\11\ 
which would make the rule change operative immediately. The Exchange 
believes that continuation of the Pilot does not burden competition and 
would operate to protect investors and the public interest by ensuring 
that the closing price at the Exchange is not significantly dislocated 
from the last sale price by virtue of an extreme order imbalance at or 
near the close.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \10\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6)(iii). In addition, Rule 19b-
4(f)(6)(iii) requires the self-regulatory organization to give the 
Commission notice of its intent to file the proposed rule change, 
along with a brief description and text of the proposed rule change, 
at least five business days prior to the date of filing of the 
proposed rule change, or such shorter time as designated by the 
Commission. NYSE has satisfied this requirement.
    \11\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6)(iii).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Commission believes that waiving the 30-day operative delay is 
consistent with the protection of investors and the public interest 
because it would allow the Pilot to continue without interruption while 
the Exchange works towards submitting a separate proposal to make the 
Pilot permanent. Accordingly, the Commission designates the proposed 
rule change as operative upon filing with the Commission.\12\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \12\ For purposes only of waiving the operative delay for this 
proposal, the Commission has considered the proposed rule's impact 
on efficiency, competition, and capital formation. See 15 U.S.C. 
78c(f).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    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.\13\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \13\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(C).
