Description of the Proposal, as Modified by Amendment No. 2 [FR Doc. 2017–14421 Filed 7–10–17; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 7710–12–P A. General Background on SPACs SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION [Release No. 34–81079; File No. SR–NYSE– 2017–11] Self-Regulatory Organizations; New York Stock Exchange LLC; Notice of Filing of Amendment No. 2 and Order Granting Accelerated Approval of a Proposed Rule Change, as Modified by Amendment No. 2, to Amend Listing Standards for Special Purpose Acquisition Companies to Modify the Initial and Continued Distribution Requirements July 5, 2017. I. Introduction On March 20, 2017, the New York Stock Exchange LLC (‘‘NYSE’’ 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 amend listing standards for Special Purpose Acquisition Companies (‘‘SPACs’’) to modify the initial and continued distribution requirements, and to make other minor changes. The proposed rule change was published for comment in the Federal Register on April 6, 2017.3 The Commission received no comments on the proposal. On May 19, 2017, the Commission designated a longer period for Commission action until July 5, 2017.4 On May 23, 2017, NYSE filed Amendment No. 1 to the proposal. On June 19, 2017, NYSE withdrew Amendment No. 1 and filed Amendment No. 2 to, among other things, revise the proposed continued listing distribution standard from a requirement of 300 total stockholders to a requirement of 300 public stockholders.5 The Commission is 1 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(1). CFR 240.19b–4. 3 See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 80358 (March 31, 2017), 82 FR 16865 (April 6, 2017) (‘‘Notice’’). 4 See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 80735 (May 19, 2017), 82 FR 24173 (May 25, 2017) (‘‘Extension’’). 5 In Amendment No. 2, the Exchange replaced the proposal in its entirety. Amendment No. 2, in addition to changing the proposed distribution standard to 300 public stockholders, rather than 300 mstockstill on DSK30JT082PROD with NOTICES 2 17 VerDate Sep<11>2014 18:01 Jul 10, 2017 Jkt 241001 A SPAC is a special purpose company that raises capital in an initial public offering (‘‘IPO’’) to enter into future undetermined business combinations through mergers, capital stock exchanges, assets acquisitions, stock purchases, reorganizations or similar business combinations with one or more operating businesses or assets. The Exchange represented that in an IPO, a SPAC typically sells units consisting of one share of common stock and one or more warrants (or fraction of a warrant) to purchase common stocks. The units are separable at some point after the IPO. The Exchange also noted that management of the SPAC typically receives a percentage of the equity at the outset and may be required to purchase additional shares in a private placement at the time of the IPO. Due to their different structure, SPACs do not have any prior financial history, at the time of their listing, like operating companies. B. Proposed Changes to Round Lot Holders in Initial Listing Standards NYSE Manual Section 102.06 sets forth the initial listing standards that apply to SPACs.6 Currently, in order to list on the Exchange, a SPAC is required to meet, among other standards, initial distribution requirements including having at least 400 round lot holders.7 The Exchange proposes to lower the initial distribution requirements of round lot holders from 400 to 300 for a SPAC listing either in connection with an IPO or a transfer from another exchange or a quotation listing.8 total stockholders as originally proposed, specifies that NYSE Listed Company Manual (‘‘Manual’’) Section 802.01A does not apply to SPACs, defines the term ‘‘public stockholders,’’ and corrects typographical errors. Text of Amendment No. 2 is available as a comment letter to this filing. 6 The Commission notes that throughout this order we have used the term ‘‘SPAC’’ or ‘‘SPACs’’, but these terms have the same meaning as ‘‘Acquisition Company’’ or ‘‘Acquisition Companies’’ which are the terms used for listing, and continued listing, in Section 102.06 of the Manual. 7 See NYSE Manual Section 102.01A. 8 The other alternative distribution criteria that currently apply to transfers and quotation listings will remain unchanged but is being moved so that all the criteria for listing SPACs will be contained in Section 102.06 of the Manual. See Notice, supra note 3 and discussion below. PO 00000 Frm 00090 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 C. Proposed Changes to Total Stockholders in Continued Listing Standards NYSE Manual Section 802.01B sets forth the continued listing standards that apply to SPACs. Currently, a SPAC is deemed below the continued listing standards if, among other things, the SPAC’s total number of stockholders is less than 400. The Exchange proposes to change this continued distribution requirement to 300 public stockholders.9 In connection with the amendment, the Exchange proposes to define ‘‘public stockholders’’ to exclude holders that are directors, officers, or their immediate families and holders of other concentrated holdings of 10% or more.10 D. Technical Changes The Exchange also has proposed four technical changes to its initial and continued listing standards on SPACs. First, the Exchange proposed to consolidate the SPAC initial listing standards in Section 102.06 of the Manual, rather than referring to Section 102.01A of the Manual, which applies for operating companies. Second, the Exchange proposed to move a sentence in Section 102.06 of the Manual that details the minimum price per share for a SPAC at the time of initial listing from the end to the beginning of the same paragraph. Third, the Exchange proposed to delete an incorrect reference to footnote (A) that is included following the aggregate market value requirement in Section 102.06 of the Manual.11 Finally, the Exchange proposed to add language to the continued listing criteria applicable to SPACs set forth in Section 801.01B of the Manual clarifying that the distribution standards in Section 9 See Amendment No. 2, supra note 5 and accompanying text. As with the initial standards, the alternative shareholder and other distribution continued listing standards will remain unchanged. 10 The Exchange represents that it primarily relies on the beneficial ownership disclosure included in the issuers’ registration statements and annual meeting proxy statements in calculating publicly held shares and public stockholders, but also refers to other SEC filings where appropriate and its determinations are made in accordance with Rule 13d-3 under the Act. The Exchange stated that this is its practice under all of its rules where these calculations must be made. The Exchange also stated that this is the practice of NYSE MKT and the Exchange believes that its approach is generally consistent with that of the NASDAQ Stock Market. 11 The Exchange also proposes correct two instances of a typographical error included in the original filing by adding a second ‘‘or’’ to the phrase ‘‘Number of holders of 100 shares or more or of a unit of trading. . .’’ in Section 102.06 of the Manual. See Amendment No. 2. E:\FR\FM\11JYN1.SGM 11JYN1
