these requirements because: the Pair Off

the OW; and to improve NSCC’s current
mechanism for the clearance and
settlement of securities transactions that
are placed in the OW.

Commission finds that the proposal is
consistent with the requirements of the
Act and in particular with the
requirements of Section 17A of the
Act 13 and the rules and regulations
thereunder.
It is therefore ordered, pursuant to
Section 19(b)(2) of the Act, that the
proposed rule change SR–NSCC–2013–
11 be, and it hereby is, approved.
