order.25 Further, the Exchange proposes
to revise Rule 11.13(b) (to be
renumbered as Rule 11.13(b)(5)) to make
clear that orders that have been routed
pursuant to Rule 11.12(a) are not ranked
and maintained by the BATS Book, and
therefore are not available to execute
against incoming orders pursuant to
new Rule 11.13(a).26

III. Discussion and Commission
Findings
After careful review, the Commission
finds that the proposed rule change is
consistent with the requirements of the
Act and the rules and regulations
thereunder applicable to a national
securities exchange.27 In particular, the
Commission finds that the proposed
rule change is consistent with the
requirements of Section 6(b)(5) of the
Act,28 which requires, among other
things, that the Exchange’s rules be
designed to prevent fraudulent and
manipulative acts and practices, to
promote just and equitable principles of
trade, to remove impediments to and
perfect the mechanism of a free and
open market and a national market
system, and, in general, to protect
investors and the public interest; and
are not designed to permit unfair
discrimination between customers,
issuers, brokers or dealers.
The Exchange believes that the
proposed rule change will provide
additional clarity and specificity
regarding the functionality of the
System, thus promoting just and
equitable principals of trade and
promoting a fair and open market. In
addition, the Exchange believes the
proposed rule change will contribute to
the protection of investors and the
public interest by making the
Exchange’s rules easier to understand.
The Exchange states that the proposed
rule changes add clarity and
transparency to the Exchange’s rulebook
regarding existing Exchange
functionality.29 For example, among
other things, the Exchange’s proposal
would amend Rule 11.9 to clarify that
IOC orders are routable and FOK orders
are not routable, specify the
methodology used by the Exchange to
25 See Notice, supra note 3 at 8725–26. See also
proposed Rule 11.13(b)(4)(C).
26 See Notice, supra note 3 at 8725. See also
proposed Rule 11.13(b)(5). For additional detail
regarding the Exchange’s proposed rule changes,
including examples of the operation of functionality
addressed by this rule filing, see Notice, supra note
3 at 8721–26.
27 In approving this proposed rule change, the
Commission has considered the proposed rule’s
impact on efficiency, competition, and capital
formation. See 15 U.S.C. 78c(f).

determine whether BATS Post Only
Orders will remove liquidity from the
BATS Book, and add additional detail
describing the operation of Mid-Point
Peg Orders and Discretionary Orders.
The Exchange also has proposed to
amend Rules 11.12 and 11.13 to provide
additional transparency as to, but not
substantively modify, the Exchange’s
process for ranking, executing and
routing orders, including orders subject
to the Exchange’s re-route functionality.
The Commission believes that these
proposed changes should provide
greater specificity, clarity and
transparency with respect to certain
order type and modifier functionality
available on the Exchange, as well as the
Exchange’s methodologies for ranking,
executing and routing orders. Therefore,
the proposal should help to prevent
fraudulent and manipulative acts and
practices, promote just and equitable
principles of trade, remove
impediments to and perfect the
mechanism of a free and open market
and a national market system, and, in
general, protect investors and the public
interest.
IV. Conclusion
It is therefore ordered, pursuant to
Section 19(b)(2) of the Act,30 that the
proposed rule change (SR–BATS–2015–
09) be, and it hereby is, approved.
For the Commission, by the Division of
Trading and Markets, pursuant to delegated
authority.31

Secretary.

1. Claim for Amounts Due in the Case
of a Deceased Beneficiary—20 CFR
404.503(b)—0960–0101. When a Social
Security payment was due to a deceased
beneficiary at the time of death and
there is insufficient information in the
file to identify the persons(s) entitled to
the payment or the person’s address,
SSA asks the surviving spouse, next of
kin, or legal representative of the estate
to complete Form SSA–1724, Claim for
Amounts Due in the Case of a Deceased
Social Security Recipient. SSA collects
the information when a surviving
widow(er) is not already entitled to a
monthly benefit on the same earnings
record, or is not filing for a lump-sum
death payment as a former spouse. SSA
uses the information from Form SSA–
1724 to ensure proper payment of an
underpayment due a deceased
beneficiary. The respondents are
applicants for underpayments owed to
deceased beneficiaries.
This is a correction notice. SSA
published this information collection as
a revision on February 10, 2015 at 80 FR
2521. Since we are no longer revising
the information collection, this is now
an extension of an OMB-approved
information collection.
