Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (‘‘Act’’),1 and Rule 19b–4 thereunder,2 notice is hereby given that on August 16, 2013, The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC (‘‘NASDAQ’’ or ‘‘Exchange’’) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (‘‘Commission’’) the proposed rule change as described in Items I, II, and III below, which Items have been prepared by the Exchange. The Commission is publishing this notice to solicit comments on the proposed rule change from interested persons. I. Self-Regulatory Organization’s Statement of the Terms of the Substance of the Proposed Rule Change The Exchange proposes a rule change to NASDAQ Rule 7026 (Distribution Models) regarding Managed Data Solutions (‘‘MDS’’), to indicate that this option is available for non-display use only. This would conform non-display MDS in Rule 7026(b) with non-display MDS on PSX, the equity market of NASDAQ OMX PHLX LLC (‘‘Phlx’’), and on NASDAQ OMX BX, Inc. (‘‘BX’’). 1 15 2 17 PO 00000 U.S.C. 78s(b)(1). CFR 240.19b–4. Frm 00105 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 The purpose of this proposal is to amend Rule 7026(b) to indicate that NASDAQ MDS is available for nondisplay use only. This would conform non-display MDS on NASDAQ with recent immediately effective proposals establishing non-display MDS on PSX and on BX.3 No other changes to Rule 7026 are proposed or made by this filing. MDS has been available on NASDAQ since 2010,4 and is, in all material respects, similar to MDS on PSX and on BX, except that MDS is currently available for display on NASDAQ. This proposal aligns and conforms the nondisplay nature of MDS for all three SelfRegulatory Organization (‘‘SRO’’) exchanges under the umbrella of the NASDAQ OMX Group Inc., (‘‘NASDAQ OMX Group’’), namely NASDAQ, PSX, and BX. 3 See Securities Exchange Release Nos. 69182 (March 19, 2013), 78 FR 18378 (March 26, 2013) (SR–Phlx–2013–28) (notice of filing and immediate effectiveness implementing MDS on PSX) (the ‘‘PSX MDS filing’’); and 69041 (March 5, 2013), 78 FR 15791 (March 12, 2013) (SR–BX–2013–018) (notice of filing and immediate effectiveness implementing MDS on BX) (the ‘‘BX MDS filing’’). 4 See Securities Exchange Release No. 63276 (November 8, 2010), 75 FR 69717 (November 15, 2010) (SR–NASDAQ–2010–138) (notice of filing and immediate effectiveness implementing MDS on NASDAQ) (the ‘‘NASDAQ MDS filing’’). Other markets have also implemented a managed data solution. See, for example, Securities Exchange Release No. 65678 (November 3, 2011), 76 FR 70178 (November 10, 2011) (SR–ISE–2011–67) (notice of filing and immediate effectiveness implementing a managed data solution on ISE).
