corrected cross-reference is substantially
identical to the cross reference in
Nasdaq Rule 4619(d) to Nasdaq Rule
4620, which in turn is substantially
identical to IEX Rule 11.153.
B. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement on Burden on Competition
IEX does not believe that the
proposed rule change will result in any
burden on competition that is not
necessary or appropriate in furtherance
of the purposes of the Act. The
proposed rule change is designed to
provide appropriate, objective and
transparent criteria for Market Maker
excused withdrawals in securities listed
on IEX. The Exchange does not believe
that the proposed rule change will result
in any burden on intramarket
competition because all Market Makers
will be subject to the same criteria. The
Exchange also does not believe that the
proposed rule change will result in any
burden on intermarket competition,
since Nasdaq has substantially similar
criteria for excused withdrawals and
other exchanges are free to adopt
comparable criteria. The Exchange also
believes that the proposed rule change
will serve to promote clarity and
consistency, as noted in the Statutory
Basis section, thereby reducing burdens
on competition and facilitating investor
protection.
C. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement on Comments on the
Proposed Rule Change Received From
Members, Participants, or Others
Written comments were neither
solicited nor received.

III. Date of Effectiveness of the
Proposed Rule Change and Timing for
Commission Action
Because the 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 from the date on
which it was filed, or such shorter time
as the Commission may designate if
consistent with the protection of
investors and the public interest, the
proposed rule change has become
effective pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A)
of the Act 18 and Rule 19b–4(f)(6)
thereunder.19
18 15
U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A).
CFR 240.19b–4(f)(6). In addition, Rule 19b–
4(f)(6)(iii) requires the Exchange to give the
Commission written notice of the Exchange’s intent
to file the proposed rule change, along with a brief
description and text of the proposed rule change,
at least five business days prior to the date of filing
of the proposed rule change, or such shorter time
as designated by the Commission. The Exchange
has satisfied this requirement.

A proposed rule change filed under
Rule 19b–4(f)(6) 20 normally does not
become operative for 30 days after the
date of filing. However, pursuant to
Rule 19b–4(f)(6)(iii),21 the Commission
may designate a shorter time if such
action is consistent with the protection
of investors and the public interest. The
Exchange has asked the Commission to
waive the 30-day operative delay so that
the proposal may become operative
immediately upon filing. The
Commission believes that waiver of the
operative delay is consistent with the
protection of investors and the public
interest because the Exchange’s
proposed rule change will conform
IEX’s rules to a substantially similar
provision in the rules of Nasdaq, and
the Exchange’s proposal does not raise
any new or novel issues. Accordingly,
the Commission hereby waives the 30day operative delay requirement and
designates the proposed rule change as
operative upon filing.22
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 necessary or appropriate in the
public interest, for the protection of
investors, or 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.

A. General
The Computer Matching and Privacy
Protection Act of 1988 (Pub. L. 100–
503), amended the Privacy Act (5 U.S.C.
552a) by describing the conditions
under which computer matching
involving the Federal government could
be performed and adding certain
protections for persons applying for,
and receiving, Federal benefits. Section
7201 of the Omnibus Budget
Reconciliation Act of 1990 (Pub. L. 101–
508) further amended the Privacy Act
regarding protections for such persons.
The Privacy Act, as amended,
regulates the use of computer matching
by Federal agencies when records in a
system of records are matched with
other Federal, State, or local government
records. It requires Federal agencies
involved in computer matching
programs to:
(1) Negotiate written agreements with
the other agency or agencies
participating in the matching programs;
(2) Obtain approval of the matching
agreement by the Data Integrity Boards
of the participating Federal agencies;
(3) Publish notice of the computer
matching program in the Federal
Register;
(4) Furnish detailed reports about
matching programs to Congress and
OMB;
(5) Notify applicants and beneficiaries
that their records are subject to
matching; and
