Amendment 12 provides that a Trading Pause 27 will continue until the Primary Listing Exchange has reopened trading using its established reopening procedures, even if such reopening is more than 10 minutes after the beginning of a Trading Pause, and to require that trading centers may not resume trading in an NMS Stock following a Trading Pause without Price Bands in such NMS Stock.28 Amendment 12 also provides that a Trading Pause will continue until the Primary Listing Exchange has reopened trading using its established reopening procedures and reports a Reopening Price. Furthermore, Amendment 12 eliminated the current allowance for a trading center to resume trading in an NMS Stock following a Trading Pause if the Primary Listing Exchange has not reported a Reopening Price within ten minutes after the declaration of a Trading Pause and has not declared a Regulatory Halt. In addition, to preclude potential scenarios when trading may resume without Price Bands, Amendment 12 provides that a trading center may not resume trading in an NMS Stock following a Trading Pause without Price Bands in such NMS Stock. To address potential scenarios in which there is no Reopening Price from the Primary Listing Exchange to use to calculate Price Bands, Amendment 12 adopted related provisions to the Plan to address when trading may resume if the Primary Listing Exchange is unable to reopen due to a systems or technology issue or if the Primary Listing Exchange reopens trading on a zero bid or zero quote, or both and how the Reference Price would be determined in such a scenario.

Accordingly, the Exchange is proposing to adopt changes to its rules, as described below, to implement the reopening procedures agreed upon by the Plan Participants that are applicable to the Exchange. a. Proposal The Exchange proposes to amend current Article 20, Rule 2A(c)(4) to adopt a requirement of Amendment 12 to only resume trading after a Trading Pause initiated by another exchange upon receiving Price Bands from the Processor. As noted above, Amendment 12 prohibits trading centers from resuming trading in an NMS Stock following a Trading Pause without Price Bands in such NMS Stock. The Plan provides that if the Primary Listing Exchange is unable to reopen trading due to a systems or technology issue, trading should be permitted to resume in that NMS Stock upon receiving Price Bands from the processor. The Exchange notes that amended Article 20, Rule 2A(c)(4) is based, in part, on approved amendments to Nasdaq Rule 4120(a)(12)(H), which are not yet operative.30 The Exchange does not propose to amend CHX Rules to adopt other requirements of Amendment 12 related to reopening procedures as the Exchange is not currently a Primary Listing Exchange for any NMS Stocks and its primary listing program is currently dormant. b. Operative Date The Exchange proposes to implement the proposed rule change in coordination with other Plan Participants on November 20, 2017. 2. Statutory Basis asabaliauskas on DSKBBXCHB2PROD with NOTICES The Exchange believes that the proposed rule change is consistent with 82 FR 48870 (October 20, 2017) (SR–NYSE–2017– 51); see also Securities Exchange Act Release No. 79884 (January 26, 2017), 82 FR 8968 (February 1, 2017) (Approval Order for SR–BatsBZX–2016–61); see also Securities Exchange Act Release No. 79876 (January 25, 2017), 82 FR 8888 (January 31, 2017) (Approval Order for SR–NASDAQ–2016–131); see also Securities Exchange Act Release No. 79846 (January 19, 2017), 82 FR 8548 (January 26, 2017) (Approval Order for SR–NYSEArca–2016–130). 30 See Approval Order for SR–NASDAQ–2016– 131, supra note 29, at 8889–8890.

The Exchange believes that the proposed rule change, together with the approved amendments to the Plan, are necessary or appropriate in the public interest, for the protection of investors and the maintenance of fair and orderly markets, to remove impediments to and perfect the mechanisms of, a national market system, or otherwise in furtherance of the purposes of the Act. The Exchange believes the proposed rule change would 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, because they are designed, together with the approved amendments to the Plan, to address the issues experienced on August 24, 2015 by reducing the number of repeat Trading Pauses in a single NMS Stock, and to harmonize CHX Rules with the Plan and the rules of other Plan Participants.33 The approved Plan amendments are an essential component to Plan Participants’ goal of more standardized processes across Primary Listing Exchanges in reopening trading following a Trading Pause, and facilitates the production of an equilibrium Reopening Price by centralizing the reopening process through the Primary Listing Exchange, which would also improve the accuracy of the reopening Price Bands. The approved Plan amendments support this initiative by requiring trading centers to wait to resume trading following Trading Pause until there is a Reopening Price. As such, the Exchange’s proposal to amend Article 20, Rule 2A(c)(4) to provide that, if a Trading Pause was initiated by another exchange, CHX may resume trading following the Trading Pause upon receipt of the Price Bands from the Processor would comport CHX Rules with the approved Plan Amendments and, thereby, harmonize CHX Rules with the rules of other national securities exchanges. 31 15 U.S.C. 78f(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 not necessary or appropriate in furtherance of the purposes of the Act. The proposed rule change is not designed to address any competitive issues, but rather, to achieve the Plan Participants’ goal of more standardized processes across Primary Listing Exchanges in reopening trading following a Trading Pause, and facilitates the production of an equilibrium reopening price by centralizing the reopening process through the Primary Listing Exchange, which would also improve the accuracy of the reopening Price Bands. The Exchange believes that the proposed rule change reduces the burden on competition for market participants because it promotes a transparent and consistent process for reopening trading following a Trading Pause regardless of where a security may be listed. C. Self-Regulatory Organization’s Statement on Comments on the Proposed Rule Change Received From Members, Participants, or Others No written comments were either solicited or 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 34 and Rule 19b–4(f)(6) thereunder.35 A proposed rule change filed under Rule 19b–4(f)(6) 36 normally does not become operative for 30 days after the date of filing. However, pursuant to Rule 19b–4(f)(6)(iii),37 the Commission may designate a shorter time if such 34 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. 36 17 CFR 240.19b–4(f)(6). 37 17 CFR 240.19b–4(f)(6)(iii). 35 17 E:\FR\FM\22NON1.SGM 22NON1 Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 224 / Wednesday, November 22, 2017 / Notices 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 on November 20, 2017. The Commission believes that waiver of the operative delay is consistent with the protection of investors and the public interest because the Exchange’s proposal does not raise any new or novel issues, and the waiver would permit the Exchange to implement the proposed rule change in coordination with other Plan Participants on the Amendment 12 implementation date of November 20, 2017. Accordingly, the Commission hereby waives the 30-day operative delay requirement and designates the proposed rule change as operative on November 20, 2017.38 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 under Section 19(b)(2)(B) of the Act 39 to determine whether the proposed rule change should be approved or disapproved.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    As of the date of this filing, the Amendment 12 implementation date 
is November 20, 2017. Amendment 12 provides that a Trading Pause \27\ 
will continue until the Primary Listing Exchange has reopened trading 
using its established reopening procedures, even if such reopening is 
more than 10 minutes after the beginning of a Trading Pause, and to 
require that trading centers may not resume trading in an NMS Stock 
following a Trading Pause without Price Bands in such NMS Stock.\28\ 
Amendment 12 also provides that a Trading Pause will continue until the 
Primary Listing Exchange has reopened trading using its established 
reopening procedures and reports a Reopening Price. Furthermore, 
Amendment 12 eliminated the current allowance for a trading center to 
resume trading in an NMS Stock following a Trading Pause if the Primary 
Listing Exchange has not reported a Reopening Price within ten minutes 
after the declaration of a Trading Pause and has not declared a 
Regulatory Halt. In addition, to preclude potential scenarios when 
trading may resume without Price Bands, Amendment 12 provides that a 
trading center may not resume trading in an NMS Stock following a 
Trading Pause without Price Bands in such NMS Stock. To address 
potential scenarios in which there is no Reopening Price from the 
Primary Listing Exchange to use to calculate Price Bands, Amendment 12 
adopted related provisions to the Plan to address when trading may 
resume if the Primary Listing Exchange is unable to reopen due to a 
systems or technology issue or if the Primary Listing Exchange reopens 
trading on a zero bid or zero quote, or both and how the Reference 
Price would be determined in such a scenario.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \27\ Unless otherwise specified, the terms used herein have the 
same meaning as set forth in the Plan.
    \28\ See Amendment 12 Letter, supra note 22.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In conjunction with filing Amendment 12, each Primary Listing 
Exchange filed rule changes \29\ with the

[[Page 55698]]

Commission under Section 19(b) of the Exchange Act to amend their 
respective trading practice for automated reopenings following a 
Trading Pause consistent with a standardized approach agreed to by Plan 
Participants that would allow for extensions of a Trading Pause if 
equilibrium cannot be met for a Reopening Price within specified 
parameters. Accordingly, the Exchange is proposing to adopt changes to 
its rules, as described below, to implement the reopening procedures 
agreed upon by the Plan Participants that are applicable to the 
Exchange.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \29\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 81968 (October 27, 
2017), 82 FR 50898 (November 2, 2017) (SR-NYSEAMER-2017-30); see 
also Securities Exchange Act Release No. 81880 (October 16, 2017),

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

a. Proposal
    The Exchange proposes to amend current Article 20, Rule 2A(c)(4) to 
adopt a requirement of Amendment 12 to only resume trading after a 
Trading Pause initiated by another exchange upon receiving Price Bands 
from the Processor. As noted above, Amendment 12 prohibits trading 
centers from resuming trading in an NMS Stock following a Trading Pause 
without Price Bands in such NMS Stock. The Plan provides that if the 
Primary Listing Exchange is unable to reopen trading due to a systems 
or technology issue, trading should be permitted to resume in that NMS 
Stock upon receiving Price Bands from the processor. The Exchange notes 
that amended Article 20, Rule 2A(c)(4) is based, in part, on approved 
amendments to Nasdaq Rule 4120(a)(12)(H), which are not yet 
operative.\30\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \30\ See Approval Order for SR-NASDAQ-2016-131, supra note 29, 
at 8889-8890.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange does not propose to amend CHX Rules to adopt other 
requirements of Amendment 12 related to reopening procedures as the 
Exchange is not currently a Primary Listing Exchange for any NMS Stocks 
and its primary listing program is currently dormant.
b. Operative Date
    The Exchange proposes to implement the proposed rule change in 
coordination with other Plan Participants on November 20, 2017.
2. Statutory Basis
    The Exchange believes that the proposed rule change is consistent 
with Section 6(b) of the Act in general,\31\ and furthers the 
objectives of Section 6(b)(5) in particular,\32\ in that it is designed 
to promote just and equitable principles of trade, to foster 
cooperation and coordination with persons engaged in facilitating 
transactions in securities, to remove impediments and perfect the 
mechanisms of a free and open market, and, in general, to protect 
investors and the public interest. The Exchange believes that the 
proposed rule change, together with the approved amendments to the 
Plan, are necessary or appropriate in the public interest, for the 
protection of investors and the maintenance of fair and orderly 
markets, to remove impediments to and perfect the mechanisms of, a 
national market system, or otherwise in furtherance of the purposes of 
the Act.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \31\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b).
    \32\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange believes the proposed rule change would 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, because they are designed, together with the approved 
amendments to the Plan, to address the issues experienced on August 24, 
2015 by reducing the number of repeat Trading Pauses in a single NMS 
Stock, and to harmonize CHX Rules with the Plan and the rules of other 
Plan Participants.\33\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \33\ See supra note 29.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The approved Plan amendments are an essential component to Plan 
Participants' goal of more standardized processes across Primary 
Listing Exchanges in reopening trading following a Trading Pause, and 
facilitates the production of an equilibrium Reopening Price by 
centralizing the reopening process through the Primary Listing 
Exchange, which would also improve the accuracy of the reopening Price 
Bands. The approved Plan amendments support this initiative by 
requiring trading centers to wait to resume trading following Trading 
Pause until there is a Reopening Price. As such, the Exchange's 
proposal to amend Article 20, Rule 2A(c)(4) to provide that, if a 
Trading Pause was initiated by another exchange, CHX may resume trading 
following the Trading Pause upon receipt of the Price Bands from the 
Processor would comport CHX Rules with the approved Plan Amendments 
and, thereby, harmonize CHX Rules with the rules of other national 
securities exchanges.

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 not necessary or appropriate in 
furtherance of the purposes of the Act. The proposed rule change is not 
designed to address any competitive issues, but rather, to achieve the 
Plan Participants' goal of more standardized processes across Primary 
Listing Exchanges in reopening trading following a Trading Pause, and 
facilitates the production of an equilibrium reopening price by 
centralizing the reopening process through the Primary Listing 
Exchange, which would also improve the accuracy of the reopening Price 
Bands. The Exchange believes that the proposed rule change reduces the 
burden on competition for market participants because it promotes a 
transparent and consistent process for reopening trading following a 
Trading Pause regardless of where a security may be listed.

C. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Comments on the Proposed 
Rule Change Received From Members, Participants, or Others

    No written comments were either solicited or 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 \34\ and Rule 19b-4(f)(6) 
thereunder.\35\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \34\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A).
    \35\ 17 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) \36\ normally 
does not become operative for 30 days after the date of filing. 
However, pursuant to Rule 19b-4(f)(6)(iii),\37\ the Commission may 
designate a shorter time if such

[[Page 55699]]

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 on November 
20, 2017. The Commission believes that waiver of the operative delay is 
consistent with the protection of investors and the public interest 
because the Exchange's proposal does not raise any new or novel issues, 
and the waiver would permit the Exchange to implement the proposed rule 
change in coordination with other Plan Participants on the Amendment 12 
implementation date of November 20, 2017. Accordingly, the Commission 
hereby waives the 30-day operative delay requirement and designates the 
proposed rule change as operative on November 20, 2017.\38\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \36\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6).
    \37\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6)(iii).
    \38\ For purposes only of waiving the 30-day operative delay, 
the Commission has also considered the proposed rule's impact on 
efficiency, competition, and capital formation. See 15 U.S.C. 
78c(f).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    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 under 
Section 19(b)(2)(B) of the Act \39\ to determine whether the proposed 
rule change should be approved or disapproved.
