change will merely clarify the fact that
Exchange Rules must comply with Rule
10C–1 under the Act before any listing
of equity securities on the Exchange
becomes effective. Thus, the rule change
will not impose any burden on
intermarket or intramarket competition.
C. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement on Comments on the
Proposed Rule Change Received From
Members, Participants, or Others
The Exchange has not solicited, and
does not intend to solicit, comments on
this proposed rule change. The
Exchange has not received any
unsolicited written comments from
members or other interested parties.
III. Date of Effectiveness of the
Proposed Rule Change and Timing for
Commission Action
The Exchange believes that the
foregoing proposed rule change may
take effect upon filing with the
Commission pursuant to
Section19(b)(3)(A) 17 of the Act and Rule
19b–4(f)(6) thereunder 18 because the
foregoing proposed rule change does not
(i) significantly affect the protection of
investors or the public interest, (ii)
impose any significant burden on
competition, and (iii) become operative
for 30 days after its filing date, or such
shorter time as the Commission may
designate.
At any time within 60 days of the
filing of the proposed rule change, the
Commission summarily may
temporarily suspend such rule change if
it appears to the Commission that such
action is: (i) Necessary or appropriate in
the public interest; (ii) for the protection
of investors; or (iii) otherwise in
furtherance of the purposes of the Act.
If the Commission takes such action, the
Commission shall institute proceedings
to determine whether the proposed rule
should be approved or disapproved.
IV. Solicitation of Comments

submit written data, views, and
arguments concerning the foregoing,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
National Women’s Business Council
(NWBC) is a non-partisan federal
advisory council that serves as an
independent source of advice and
counsel to the President, Congress, and
the Small Business Administration on
economic issues of importance to
women business owners. Members of
the Council are prominent women
business owners and leaders of women’
business organizations.
As part of NWBC’s annual research
into issues affecting women business
owners, this year NWBC has chosen to
examine how women participate in
business incubation and acceleration
programs. The goal is to understand the
characteristics of incubators and
accelerators that affect the business
outcomes of female entrepreneurs. In
addition, NWBC hopes to gain insights
into the factors, both structural and
individual, that affect women’s
participation in incubator and
accelerator programs. To accomplish
this, NWBC has acquired the services of
a research firm to conduct a crosssectional survey of female entrepreneurs
and managers of business incubators
and accelerators to better understand
female participation in, utilization of,
and outcomes derived from incubation
and acceleration programs. The survey
will consist of three separate
questionnaires targeting female
entrepreneurs who have not
participated in business incubation or
acceleration programs, female
entrepreneurs who have participated in
business incubation or acceleration
programs, and managers representing
business incubators and accelerators.
Each questionnaire will take between 12
and 18 minutes to complete (see below
for the estimated burden analysis of
E:\FR\FM\10OCN1.SGM
10OCN1
61366
Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 197 / Friday, October 10, 2014 / Notices
each questionnaire). The survey
questions will explore a range of issues,
including individual strategic choices
and motivations; human capital; social
capital; financial capital; experiences
with incubators and accelerators;
selection criteria of incubators and
accelerators; institutional culture of
incubators and accelerators; business
models of incubators and accelerators;
and performance outcomes.
The data from the survey will be
rigorously analyzed and compared to
relevant pre-existing quantitative data
on female entrepreneurs and business
incubators and accelerators to draw
conclusions about current trends and
generate leads for further NWBC
research. In addition, the results will be
interpreted in consultation with subject
matter experts and relevant stakeholders
to develop best practice policy
recommendations to increase female
participation in business incubator and
accelerator programs and improve the
quality of services those programs
deliver for women. The
recommendations will advise NWBC on
how it can support economic growth by
promoting and enhancing the
contributions of business incubators and
accelerators to women business owners.
Solicitation of Public Comments

necessary for the agency to properly
