Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 68 / Friday, April 8, 2016 / Notices
protection of investors and the public
interest. Specifically, the proposed rule
change will allow for the selection by
MIAX of nominees best qualified to
serve as Directors, Observers or
committee members on the Exchange’s
Board of Directors based on the overall
strategic needs of the Board, the
Exchange and its constituents,
regardless of such individuals’ service
as a member of the governing body of
a competitor. (Conversely, this proposed
rule change will also allow for the
selection by MIAX’s competitors of
nominees best qualified to serve on their
governing bodies, regardless of such
individuals’ service on the Exchange’s
Board). In addition, the proposed rule
change will alleviate the disruption that
might occur if a Director, Observer or
committee member of MIAX were to
become a member of the board of
directors or similar governing body of a
Specified Entity and thereby
immediately cease to be a Director,
Observer or committee member of
MIAX, thus resulting in the loss of a
valuable Director, Observer or
committee member and a vacancy on
the MIAX Board which the Exchange
would have to divert efforts to refill, and
potentially disrupting compliance with
MIAX’s Board composition
requirements as set forth in its By-Laws.
B. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement on Burden on Competition
The Exchange does not believe that
the proposed rule change will impose
any burden on competition that is not
necessary or appropriate in furtherance
of the purposes of the Act. The
proposed change to the By-Laws relates
to the corporate governance of MIAX,
and as such, is not a competitive filing
and does not impose a burden on
competition.
