Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 74 / Wednesday, April 17, 2013 / Notices
Section 19(b)(2) of the Act 10 provides
that, after initiating disapproval
proceedings, the Commission shall issue
an order approving or disapproving the
proposed rule change not later than 180
days after the date of publication of
notice of filing of the proposed rule
change. The Commission may extend
the period for issuing an order
approving or disapproving the proposed
rule change, however, by not more than
60 days if the Commission determines
that a longer period is appropriate and
publishes the reasons for such
determination. The proposed rule
change was published for notice and
comment in the Federal Register on
October 18, 2012. April 16, 2013 is 180
days from that date, and June 15, 2013
is 240 days from that date.
The Commission finds it appropriate
to designate a longer period within
which to issue an order approving or
disapproving the proposed rule change
so that it has sufficient time to consider
this proposed rule change, the issues
raised in the comment letters that have
been submitted in response to the
proposed rule change, including
comment letters submitted in response
to the Order Instituting Proceedings,
and the Exchange’s responses to such
comments.
Accordingly, the Commission,
pursuant to Section 19(b)(2) of the
Act,11 designates June 15, 2013 as the
date by which the Commission should
either approve or disapprove the
proposed rule change (File Number SR–

Rule 6.53. Certain Types of Orders
Defined
One or more of the following order
types may be made available on a classby-class basis. Certain order types may
not be made available for all Exchange
systems. The classes and/or systems for
which the order types shall be available
will be as provided in the Rules, as the
context may indicate, or as otherwise
specified via Regulatory Circular.
(a)–(w) No change.
(x) Leg Order. A leg order is a limit
order on the EBook that represents one
leg of a complex order resting on the
COB if the ratio of that leg is equal to
or can be reduced to one (1) (e.g. 1:1,
1:2, 1:3) and the complex order is
noncontingent. A leg order is a firm

3 The Exchange notes that it has separately
proposed, among other things, to add Interpretation
and Policy .01 to Rule 6.53 and to add paragraph
(f) to Rule 6.53C, Interpretation and Policy .06. See
Exchange Act Release No. 34–69082 (March 8,
2013), 78 FR 16351 (March 14, 2013) (SR–CBOE–
2013–030) (as amended by Amendment No. 1, filed
March 26, 2013) (proposed rule change to modify
the Exchange’s rules to address certain option order
handling procedures and quoting obligations on the
Exchange after the implementation of the market
wide equity Plan to Address Extraordinary Market
Volatility). Those proposed changes are pending
approval of the Commission and thus are not
included in the rule text in this rule filing. The
Exchange does not believe that the changes
proposed in SR–CBOE–2013–030 have any effect on
the proposed changes in this rule filing.

Rule 6.53C. Complex Orders on the
Hybrid System
(a) Definition: No change.
(b) Types of Complex Orders: No
change.
(c) Complex Order Book
(i)–(iii) No change.
(iv) Leg Orders:
(1) Generation of Leg Orders. Leg
orders may be automatically generated
on behalf of complex orders so that they
are represented in the individual leg
markets. Specifically, the System will
evaluate the COB when a complex order
enters the COB, when the Exchange BBO
changes and at a regular time interval
to be determined by the Exchange
(which interval shall not exceed one (1)
second) to determine whether leg orders
may be generated or displayed in
accordance with the provisions in
subparagraphs (A) through (C) below.
The Exchange may determine to limit
the number of leg orders generated on
an objective basis.
(A) A leg order will be automatically
generated for a leg of a complex order
resting on the top of the COB: (I) if the
price of the complex order is inside the
‘‘derived net market,’’ which is based on
the derived net price of the best-priced
orders or quotes (other than leg orders)
in the EBook, and (II) at a price at which
net price execution of the complex order
can be achieved if the other leg(s) of the
complex order executes against the bestpriced orders or quotes (other than leg
orders). Notwithstanding the foregoing,
a leg order will not be generated if it
would lock or cross the NBBO.
(B) A leg order will only be displayed
in the EBook if the price matches or
improves the Exchange BBO. If multiple
resting complex orders in different
strategies generate leg orders for the
same price on the same side of a series,
then the leg order with the largest size
will be displayed. If such leg orders are
also for the same size, then the first leg
order generated will be displayed.
(C) The size of a leg order will be the
lesser of (I) the size of the complex order
and (II) the maximum size available in
the EBook for the other leg(s) of the
complex order (divided by the leg ratio,
if applicable). If multiple resting
complex orders in the same strategy
generate leg orders for the same price on
the same side of a series, then the sizes
of the leg orders will be aggregated
(those leg orders will be treated as a
single order until execution).
