Order of Suspension of Trading
March 2, 2011.
It appears to the Securities and

The Commission is of the opinion that
the public interest and the protection of
investors require a suspension of trading
in Advanced Optics Electronics, Inc.
Therefore, it is ordered, pursuant to
Section 12(k) of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, that trading in the
securities of the above-listed company is
suspended for the period from 9:30 a.m.

will be able to combine their positions
at GSD with their positions at NYPC, or
those positions of certain permitted
affiliates cleared at NYPC, within a
single margin portfolio (‘‘Margin
Portfolio’’). The proposed rule change
also makes certain other related changes
to GSD’s rules.
A. Cross-Margining With NYPC
Under the proposed rule, a member of
FICC that is also an NYPC clearing
member (‘‘Joint Clearing Member’’)
could in accordance with the provisions
of the GSD and NYPC Rules, elect to
participate in the cross-margining
arrangement. FICC’s rules permit a GSD
netting member that is a member (or
that has an affiliate that is a member) of
one or more Futures Clearing
Organizations (‘‘FCO’’),6 such as NYPC,
to become a cross-margining participant
in a cross-margining arrangement
between FICC and one or more FCOs
with the consent of FICC and each such
FCO. A netting member shall become a
cross-margining participant upon
acceptance of FICC and each applicable
FCO of an agreement executed by such
cross-margining participant in the form
specified in the applicable crossmargining agreement.7
Participating in the cross-margining
arrangement would permit a Joint
Clearing Member to have its margin
requirement calculated taking into
account both its positions at FICC and
NYPC, which should provide a clearer
picture of its risk exposure and
generally facilitate better risk
assessment by FICC. Specifically, each
Joint Clearing Member would have its
margin requirement with respect to
Eligible Positions (i.e., positions in
certain securities netted by FICC or
certain futures contracts cleared by an
FCO) 8 in its proprietary account at
pursuant to Section 5b of the Commodity Exchange
Act and Part 39 of the Regulations of the CFTC.
6 ‘‘FCO’’ is defined in GSD Rule 1 as a clearing
organization for a board of trade designated as a
contract market under Section 5 of the Commodity
Exchange Act that has entered into a CrossMargining Agreement with FICC.
7 See GSD Rule 43, Cross-Margining
Arrangements, Section 2. The cross-margining
agreement between FICC and NYPC as well as the
cross-margining participant agreements for joint
and permitted affiliates are attached to FICC’s filing
of proposed rule change SR–FICC–2010–09.
8 The term ‘‘Eligible Position’’ is currently defined
in GSD’s rules as a position in certain Eligible
Netting Securities netted by FICC, or certain
Government securities futures contracts or interest
rate futures contracts cleared by a FCO as identified
in a Cross-Margining Agreement as eligible for
cross-margining treatment.
‘‘Eligible Netting Security’’ is defined in GSD Rule
1 as an Eligible Security that FICC has designed as
eligible for netting.
‘‘Eligible Security’’ is defined generally in GSD
Rule 1 as a security issued or guaranteed by the
