The Exchange has designated the proposal as a ‘‘non-controversial’’ proposed rule change pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A)(iii) of the Act 3 and Rule 19b–4(f)(6) thereunder.4 The Commission is publishing this notice to solicit comments on the proposed rule change from interested persons.

The Exchange has prepared summaries, set forth in Sections A, B, and C below, of the most significant parts of such statements. or other problems that arose related to the operation of the Pilot Program and how the Exchange addressed them. A. Self-Regulatory Organization’s Statement of the Purpose of, and the Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change The Exchange believes the rule proposal is consistent with the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the ‘‘Act’’) and the rules and regulations under the Act applicable to a national securities exchange and, in particular, the requirements of Section 6(b) of the Act.7 Specifically, the Exchange believes that the proposed rule change is consistent with the Section 6(b)(5) Act 8 requirements that the rules of an exchange be designed to promote just and equitable principles of trade, to prevent fraudulent and manipulative acts and, in general, to protect investors and the public interest. In particular, the proposed rule change allows for an extension of the Penny Pilot Program for the benefit of market participants. 1. Purpose The Penny Pilot Program is scheduled to expire on December 31, 2010. CBOE proposes to extend the Penny Pilot Program until December 31, 2011. CBOE believes that extending the Pilot Program will allow for further analysis of the Pilot Program and a determination of how the Pilot Program should be structured in the future. During this extension of the Pilot Program, CBOE may replace any option class which is currently included in the Pilot Program and which is delisted with the next most actively-traded, multiple-listed option class that is not yet participating in the Pilot Program (‘‘replacement class’’). Any replacement option would be determined based on national average daily volume in the preceding six months, and would be added on the second trading day following January 1, 2011 and July 1, 2011.5 CBOE will employ the same parameters to prospective replacement issues as approved and applicable in determining the existing classes in the Penny Pilot Program, including excluding high-priced underlying securities.6 CBOE will announce any replacement classes by circular. CBOE is specifically authorized to act jointly with the other options exchanges participating in the Penny Pilot Program in identifying any replacement class. CBOE will submit to the SEC semiannual reports that will analyze the impact of the Penny Pilot on market quality and systems capacity. This report will include, but is not limited to the following: (1) Data and analysis of the number of quotations generated for options included in the report; (2) an assessment of the quotation spreads for the options included in the report; (3) an assessment of the impact of the Pilot Program on CBOE’s automated systems; (4) data reflecting the size and depth of markets; and (5) any capacity problems 2. Statutory Basis B. Self-Regulatory Organization’s Statement on Burden on Competition CBOE 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 neither solicited nor received comments on the proposal. III. Date of Effectiveness of the Proposed Rule Change and Timing for Commission Action Because the foregoing 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 9 and Rule 19b–4(f)(6)(iii) thereunder.10 7 15 U.S.C. 78f(b).

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.

Purpose The Exchange hereby proposes to extend the time period of the Pilot Program 4 which is currently scheduled to expire on December 31, 2010, through December 31, 2011, and to provide revised dates for adding replacement issues to the Pilot. The Exchange proposes that the semi-annual dates to replace issues that have been delisted be revised to the second trading day following January 1, 2011 and July 1, 2011. The Exchange also wishes to clarify that the replacement issues will be selected based on trading activity for the six month period beginning June 1, 2010 and ending November 30, 2010 for the January 2011 replacement, and the six month period beginning December 1, 2010 and ending May 31, 2011 for the July 2011 replacements. This filing does not propose any substantive changes to the Pilot Program: all classes currently participating will remain the same and all minimum increments will remain unchanged.

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

    The Exchange is proposing to amend its rules relating to the Penny 
Pilot Program. The text of the proposed rule change is available on the 
Exchange's Web site (https://www.cboe.org/Legal), at the Exchange'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 those statements may be examined at the

[[Page 75714]]

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 the 
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change

1. Purpose
    The Penny Pilot Program is scheduled to expire on December 31, 
2010. CBOE proposes to extend the Penny Pilot Program until December 
31, 2011. CBOE believes that extending the Pilot Program will allow for 
further analysis of the Pilot Program and a determination of how the 
Pilot Program should be structured in the future.
    During this extension of the Pilot Program, CBOE may replace any 
option class which is currently included in the Pilot Program and which 
is delisted with the next most actively-traded, multiple-listed option 
class that is not yet participating in the Pilot Program (``replacement 
class''). Any replacement option would be determined based on national 
average daily volume in the preceding six months, and would be added on 
the second trading day following January 1, 2011 and July 1, 2011.\5\ 
CBOE will employ the same parameters to prospective replacement issues 
as approved and applicable in determining the existing classes in the 
Penny Pilot Program, including excluding high-priced underlying 
securities.\6\ CBOE will announce any replacement classes by circular.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ The month immediately preceding their addition to the Pilot 
Program, i.e., December or June, would not be used for purposes of 
the six month analysis. For example, a replacement class to be added 
on the second trading following January 1 would be identified based 
on OCC volume data from June 1 through November 30.
    \6\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 60864 (October 22, 
2009), granting immediate effectiveness to SR-CBOE-2009-76.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    CBOE is specifically authorized to act jointly with the other 
options exchanges participating in the Penny Pilot Program in 
identifying any replacement class. CBOE will submit to the SEC semi-
annual reports that will analyze the impact of the Penny Pilot on 
market quality and systems capacity. This report will include, but is 
not limited to the following: (1) Data and analysis of the number of 
quotations generated for options included in the report; (2) an 
assessment of the quotation spreads for the options included in the 
report; (3) an assessment of the impact of the Pilot Program on CBOE's 
automated systems; (4) data reflecting the size and depth of markets; 
and (5) any capacity problems or other problems that arose related to 
the operation of the Pilot Program and how the Exchange addressed them.
2. Statutory Basis
    The Exchange believes the rule proposal is consistent with the 
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the ``Act'') and the rules and 
regulations under the Act applicable to a national securities exchange 
and, in particular, the requirements of Section 6(b) of the Act.\7\ 
Specifically, the Exchange believes that the proposed rule change is 
consistent with the Section 6(b)(5) Act \8\ requirements that the rules 
of an exchange be designed to promote just and equitable principles of 
trade, to prevent fraudulent and manipulative acts and, in general, to 
protect investors and the public interest. In particular, the proposed 
rule change allows for an extension of the Penny Pilot Program for the 
benefit of market participants.

B. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Burden on Competition

    CBOE 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 neither solicited nor received comments on the 
proposal.

III. Date of Effectiveness of the Proposed Rule Change and Timing for 
Commission Action

    Because the foregoing 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 
\9\ and Rule 19b-4(f)(6)(iii) thereunder.\10\

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. CBOE has satisfied this requirement.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    At any time within 60 days of the filing of the proposed rule 
change, the Commission summarily may temporarily suspend 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.
