hereby given that, pursuant to 39 U.S.C.
404(d), on July 29, 2011, the
Commission received a petition for
review of the Postal Service’s
determination to close the post office in
Thayer, Iowa. The petition was filed by

proceeding under 39 U.S.C. 404(d)(5)

his position with supplemental
information or facts, Petitioner may

I. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement of the Terms of Substance of
the Proposed Rule Change
NASDAQ is filing with the
Commission a proposal to introduce a
bulk-quoting interface for NASDAQ
market makers that will help them meet
their obligations as market makers and
to provide liquidity to the market in an
efficient manner.
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
NASDAQ currently offers an orderbased market making interface on its
options trading platform (‘‘NOM’’).
Market makers use this interface to
provide a two-sided quotation on NOM.
Since it is an order-based interface, a
two-sided quotation requires the entry
of both a buy and a sell order.
As part of several technological
enhancements NASDAQ plans to
implement on NOM, NASDAQ proposes
to introduce a bulk-quoting interface for
market makers in order to offer an
additional market making interface
choice to NASDAQ market makers. The
proposed bulk-quoting market making
interface will be used by market makers
to submit and update their quotations in
the marketplace much like the current
order-based interface is used today. The
bulk-quoting interface, however, allows
market makers to provide both a bid and
an offer in one message. In addition, the
bulk-quoting interface allows market
makers to bundle several quote updates
into one bulk message. This is a useful
feature for market makers that provide
quotations in many different options.
Furthermore, the bulk-quoting market
making interface includes certain data
elements (described below) which
