Background 6 In October 2008, the New York Stock Exchange LLC (‘‘NYSE’’) implemented significant changes to its market rules, execution technology and the rights and obligations of its market participants all of which were designed to improve execution quality on the NYSE. These changes were all elements of the NYSE’s and the Exchange’s enhanced market model referred to as the ‘‘New Market Model’’ (‘‘NMM Pilot’’).7 The NYSE SLP Pilot was launched in coordination with the NMM Pilot (see NYSE Rule 107B). As part of the NMM Pilot, NYSE eliminated the function of specialists on the Exchange creating a new category of market participant, the Designated Market Maker or ‘‘DMM.’’ 8 Separately, the NYSE established the SLP Pilot, which established SLPs as a new class of market participants to supplement the liquidity provided by DMMs.9 The NYSE adopted NYSE Rule 107B governing SLPs as a six-month pilot program commencing in November 2008. This NYSE pilot has been extended several times, most recently to January 31, 2013.10 The NYSE is in the 123) (extending the operation of the SLP Pilot to August 1, 2011); 64772 (June 29, 2011), 76 FR 39455 (July 6, 2011) (SR–NYSEAmex–2011–44) (extending the operation of the SLP Pilot to January 31, 2012); 66041 (December 23, 2011), 76 FR 82328 (December 30, 2011) (SR–NYSEAmex–2011–103) (extending the operation of the SLP Pilot to July 31, 2012); and 67496 (July 25, 2012), 77 FR 45390 (July 31, 2012) (SR–NYSEMKT–2012–22) (extending the operation of the SLP Pilot to January 31, 2013). 6 The information contained herein is a summary of the NMM Pilot and the SLP Pilot.
