GENERAL COUNSEL CERTIFICATION: The General Counsel of the United States Postal Service has certified that the meeting may be closed under the Government in the Sunshine Act. Jkt 235001 I. Introduction On October 2, 2014, NYSE MKT LLC (‘‘NYSE MKT’’ or ‘‘Exchange’’) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (‘‘Commission’’), pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (‘‘Act’’) 1 and Rule 19b–4 thereunder,2 a proposed rule change to remove the Exchange’s quote mitigation plan as provided by NYSE MKT Rule 970.1NY. The proposed rule change was published for comment in the Federal Register on October 21, 2014.3 On December 2, 2014, the Commission extended the time period in which to either approve the proposal, disapprove the proposal, or to institute proceedings to determine whether to approve or disapprove the proposal, to January 19, 2015.4 On January 16, 2015, the Commission instituted proceedings to determine whether to approve or disapprove the proposal.5 The U.S.C. 78s(b)(1). CFR 240.19b–4. 3 See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 73367 (October 15, 2014), 79 FR 63009 (‘‘Notice’’). 4 See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 73718 (December 2, 2014), 79 FR 72748 (December 8, 2014). 5 See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 74087 (January 16, 2015), 80 FR 3697 (January 23, 2015) (‘‘Order Instituting Proceedings’’). 20515 Commission received 2 comment letters in further support of the proposal from NYSE MKT.6 Section 19(b)(2) of the Act 7 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.8 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.9 The proposed rule change was published for notice and comment in the Federal Register on October 21, 2014. April 19, 2015, is 180 days from that date, and June 18, 2015, 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 the proposal, and the issues raised in NYSE MKT’s comment letters. Accordingly, the Commission, pursuant to Section 19(b)(2) of the Act,10 designates June 18, 2015 as the date by which the Commission shall either approve or disapprove the proposed rule change (File No. SR– NYSEMKT–2014–86). For the Commission, by the Division of Trading and Markets, pursuant to delegated authority.11 Brent J. Fields, Secretary.

These procedures are intended to facilitate the registration process.

Accordingly, the Commission is not submitting a separate burden estimate for rules 8b–1 through 8b–33, but instead will include the burden for these rules in its estimates of burden for each of the registration forms under the Investment Company Act. The Commission is, however, submitting an hourly burden estimate of one hour for administrative purposes. The collection of information under rules 8b–1 to 8b–33 is mandatory. The information provided under rules 8b–1 to 8b–33 is not kept confidential.

Purpose The Exchange proposes to: (i) Amend the fees charged for and description of the logical ports offered; (ii) amend the criteria for the MidPoint Discretionary Order Add Volume Tier; and (iii) make a series of immaterial, non-substantive changes. Logical Ports Currently, the Exchange maintains logical ports for order entry, drop copies, testing, and market data for which it currently charges $500 per month per port, with the first two (2) ports provided free of charge. Ports used to request a re-transmission of market data from the Exchange are also provided free of charge. In early 2014, the Exchange and its affiliate, EDGA Exchange, Inc. with a registered broker or dealer, that has been admitted to membership in the Exchange. A Member will have the status of a ‘‘member’’ of the Exchange as that term is defined in Section 3(a)(3) of the Act.’’ See Exchange Rule 1.5(n). 6 A logical port is commonly referred to as a TCP/ IP port, and represents a port established by the Exchange within the Exchange’s system for trading and billing purposes. Each logical port established is specific to a Member or non-member and grants that Member or non-member the ability to operate a specific application, such as FIX order entry or Multicast PITCH data receipt.

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION


Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request

Upon Written Request, Copy Available From: Securities and Exchange 
Commission, Office of FOIA Services, 100 F Street NE., Washington, DC 
20549-2736.

Extension:
    Rules 8b-1 to 8b-33, SEC File No. 270-135, OMB Control No. 3235-
0176.


[[Page 20516]]


    Notice is hereby given that, pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction 
Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), the Securities and Exchange 
Commission (the ``Commission'') has submitted to the Office of 
Management and Budget (``OMB'') a request for extension of the 
previously approved collection of information discussed below.
    Rules 8b-1 to 8b-33 (17 CFR 270.8b-1 to 8b-33) under the Investment 
Company Act of 1940 (15 U.S.C. 80a-1 et seq.) (``Investment Company 
Act'') set forth the procedures for preparing and filing a registration 
statement under the Investment Company Act. These procedures are 
intended to facilitate the registration process. These rules generally 
do not require respondents to report information.\1\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ Although the rules under Section 8(b) of the Investment 
Company Act are generally procedural in nature, two of the rules 
require respondents to disclose some limited information. Rule 8b-3 
(17 CFR 270.8b-3) provides that whenever a registration form 
requires the title of securities to be stated, the registrant must 
indicate the type and general character of the securities to be 
issued. Rule 8b-22 (17 CFR 270.8b-22) provides that if the existence 
of control is open to reasonable doubt, the registrant may disclaim 
the existence of control, but it must state the material facts 
pertinent to the possible existence of control. The information 
required by both of these rules is necessary to ensure that 
investors have clear and complete information upon which to base an 
investment decision.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Commission believes that it is appropriate to estimate the 
total respondent burden associated with preparing each registration 
statement form rather than attempt to isolate the impact of the 
procedural instructions under Section 8(b) of the Investment Company 
Act, which impose burdens only in the context of the preparation of the 
various registration statement forms. Accordingly, the Commission is 
not submitting a separate burden estimate for rules 8b-1 through 8b-33, 
but instead will include the burden for these rules in its estimates of 
burden for each of the registration forms under the Investment Company 
Act. The Commission is, however, submitting an hourly burden estimate 
of one hour for administrative purposes.
    The collection of information under rules 8b-1 to 8b-33 is 
mandatory. The information provided under rules 8b-1 to 8b-33 is not 
kept confidential. An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person 
is not required to respond to, a collection of information unless it 
displays a currently valid OMB control number.
    The public may view the background documentation for this 
information collection at the following Web site, www.reginfo.gov. 
Comments should be directed to: (i) Desk Officer for the Securities and 
Exchange Commission, Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, 
Office of Management and Budget, Room 10102, New Executive Office 
Building, Washington, DC 20503, or by sending an email to: 
Shagufta_Ahmed@omb.eop.gov; and (ii) Pamela Dyson, Director/Chief 
Information Officer, Securities and Exchange Commission, c/o Remi 
Pavlik-Simon, 100 F Street NE., Washington, DC 20549 or send an email 
to: PRA_Mailbox@sec.gov. Comments must be submitted to OMB within 30 
days of this notice.

    Dated: April 10, 2015.
