Jkt 229001
Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934
(‘‘Exchange Act’’),1 and Rule 19b–4
thereunder,2 notice is hereby given that
on April 17, 2013 The Options Clearing
Corporation (‘‘OCC’’) filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission
(‘‘Commission’’) the proposed rule
change as described in Items I and II
below, which Items have been
substantially prepared by the clearing
agency.3 The Commission is publishing
this notice to solicit comments on the
proposed rule change from interested
persons.
I. Clearing Agency’s Statement of the
Terms of Substance of the Proposed
Rule Change
This proposed rule change would
allow OCC to change the expiration date
for most option contracts to the third
Friday of the expiration month instead
of the Saturday following the third
Friday.
II. Clearing Agency’s Statement of the
Purpose of, and Statutory Basis for, the
Proposed Rule Change
In its filing with the Commission, the
clearing agency 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
clearing agency has prepared
summaries, set forth in sections A, B,
and C below, of the most significant
aspects of such statements.4

U.S.C. 78s(b)(1).

advance notice under Section 806(e)(1) of Title VIII
of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and
Consumer Protection Act (‘‘Dodd-Frank Act’’)
entitled the Payment, Clearing, and Settlement
Supervision Act of 2010 (‘‘Clearing Supervision
Act’’). 12 U.S.C. 5465(e)(1); SR–OCC–2013–802.

(A) Clearing Agency’s Statement of the
Purpose of, and Statutory Basis for, the
Proposed Rule Change
Most option contracts (‘‘Standard
Expiration Contracts’’) currently expire
at the ‘‘expiration time’’ (11:59 p.m.
Eastern Time) on the Saturday following
the third Friday of the specified
expiration month (‘‘Expiration Date’’).5
The purpose of this proposed rule
change is to change the Expiration Date
for Standard Expiration Contracts to the
third Friday of the expiration month.
(The expiration time would continue to
be 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the
Expiration Date.) The proposed change
would apply only to Standard
Expiration Contracts expiring after
February 1, 2015, and OCC does not
propose to change the Expiration Date
for any outstanding option contract. The
proposed change will apply only to
series of option contracts opened for
trading after the effective date of this
proposed rule change and having
Expiration Dates later than February 1,
2015. Option contracts having nonstandard expiration dates (‘‘Nonstandard Expiration Contracts’’) will be
unaffected by this proposed rule
change.6
In order to provide a smooth
transition to the Friday expiration, OCC
would, beginning June 21, 2013, move
the expiration exercise procedures to
Friday for all Standard Expiration
Contracts even though the contracts
would continue to expire on Saturday.
After February 1, 2015, virtually all
Standard Expiration Contracts will
actually expire on Friday. The only
Standard Expiration Contracts that will
expire on a Saturday after February 1,
2015 are certain options that were listed
prior to the effectiveness of this rule
change, and a limited number of options
that may be listed prior to necessary
systems changes of the options
exchanges, which are expected to be
completed in August 2013. The
exchanges have agreed that once these
systems changes are made they will not
open for trading any new series of
option contracts with Saturday
expiration dates falling after February 1,
2015.
Background
Saturday was established as the
standard Expiration Date for OCCcleared options primarily in order to
allow sufficient time for processing of
5 See the definition of ‘‘expiration time’’ in
Article I of OCC’s By-Laws.
6 Examples of options with Non-standard
Expiration Contracts include flex options, quarterly,
monthly and weekly options, where the expiration
exercise processing for such options presently
occurs on a weekday.
