LLC (‘‘NYSE’’ or the ‘‘Exchange’’) filed
with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the ‘‘Commission’’) the
proposed rule change as described in
Items I, II, and III below, which Items
have been prepared by the selfregulatory organization. The
Commission is publishing this notice to
solicit comments on the proposed rule
change from interested persons.
I. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement of the Terms of Substance of
the Proposed Rule Change
The Exchange proposes to amend the
Eleventh Amended and Restated
Operating Agreement of New York
Stock Exchange LLC (the ‘‘Operating
Agreement’’) to make a technical change
updating the registered office and
registered agent in the state of New
York. A conforming change would be
made to update the date of the
Operating Agreement. The proposed
change is available on the Exchange’s
website at www.nyse.com, at the
principal office of the Exchange, and at
the Commission’s Public Reference
Room.
II. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement of the Purpose of, and
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule
Change
In its filing with the Commission, the
self-regulatory organization included
statements concerning the purpose of,
and basis for, the proposed rule change
and discussed any comments it received
on the proposed rule change. The text
of those statements may be examined at
the places specified in Item IV below.
The Exchange has prepared summaries,
set forth in sections A, B, and C below,
of the most significant parts of such
statements.
amozie on DSK30RV082PROD with NOTICES
A. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement of the Purpose of, and the
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule
Change
1. Purpose
The Exchange proposes to amend the
Operating Agreement to make a
technical change updating the registered
office and registered agent in the state
of New York. A conforming change
would be made to update the date of the
Operating Agreement.
The Exchange is a limited liability
company organized under the laws of
the State of New York. As such, it has
and maintains a registered office and
registered agent in New York.4
Article I, Section 1.05 of the
Operating Agreement provides that the
address of the registered office of the
Exchange in the State of New York is
c/o National Registered Agents, Inc., 875
Avenue of the Americas, Suite 501, New
York, NY 10001. The Exchange
proposes to amend such provision to
provide that the address is c/o United
Agent Group Inc., 15 North Mill Street,
Nyack, Rockland County, New York
10960.
Article I, Section 1.06 of the
Operating Agreement provides that the
name and address of the registered agent
of the Exchange for service of process on
the Exchange in the State of New York
is National Registered Agents, Inc., 875
Avenue of the Americas, Suite 501, New
York, NY 10001. The Exchange
proposes to amend such provision to
provide that the name and address is
United Agent Group Inc., 15 North Mill
Street, Nyack, Rockland County, New
York 10960.
The changes are non-substantive
technical administrative changes.
2. Statutory Basis
The Exchange believes that the
proposed rule change is consistent with
Section 6(b) of the Exchange Act 5 in
general, and with Section 6(b)(1) 6 in
particular, in that it enables the
Exchange to be so organized as to have
the capacity to be able to carry out the
purposes of the Exchange Act and to
comply, and to enforce compliance by
its exchange members and persons
associated with its exchange members,
with the provisions of the Exchange Act,
the rules and regulations thereunder,
and the rules of the Exchange.
The proposed rule change is a nonsubstantive administrative change that
does not impact the governance or
ownership of the Exchange. The
Exchange believes that the proposed
rule change would enable the Exchange
to continue to be so organized as to have
the capacity to carry out the purposes of
the Exchange Act and comply and
enforce compliance with the provisions
of the Exchange Act by its members and
persons associated with its members,
because ensuring that the Operating
Agreement identifies the registered
agent and registered office in New York
and making a conforming change to the
date of the Operating Agreement would
contribute to the orderly operation of
the Exchange by adding clarity and
transparency to its rules.
For similar reasons, the Exchange also
believes that the proposed rule change
is consistent with Section 6(b)(5) of the
Act,7 in that it is designed to prevent
fraudulent and manipulative acts and

practices, to promote just and equitable
principles of trade, to foster cooperation
and coordination with persons engaged
in facilitating transactions in securities,
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.
The Exchange believes that the
proposed rule change would remove
impediments to and perfect the
mechanism of a free and open market
and a national market system by
ensuring that market participants can
more easily navigate, understand and
comply with its rules. The Exchange
believes that, by ensuring that such
rules accurately identify the registered
agent and registered office in New York,
and by making a conforming change to
the date of the Operating Agreement, the
proposed rule change would reduce
potential investor or market participant
confusion.
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 Exchange Act.
The proposed rule change is not
designed to address any competitive
issue but rather is concerned solely with
making a technical change updating the
registered office and registered agent of
the Exchange.
C. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement on Comments on the
Proposed Rule Change Received From
Members, Participants, or Others
No written comments were solicited
or received with respect to the proposed
rule change.
III. Date of Effectiveness of the
Proposed Rule Change and Timing for
Commission Action
The proposed rule change has become
effective pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A)
of the Act 8 and Rule 19b–4(f)(3) 9
thereunder in that the proposed rule
change is concerned solely with the
administration of the Exchange.
At any time within 60 days of the
filing of the proposed rule change, the
Commission summarily may 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

19(b)(2)(B) 10 of the Act to determine
whether the proposed rule change
should be approved or disapproved.

change is consistent with the Act.

Notice is hereby given that pursuant
to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(44 U.S.C. 3501–3520), the Securities
and Exchange Commission (the
‘‘Commission’’) has submitted to the
Office of Management and Budget a
request for extension of the previously
approved collection of information
discussed below.
Section 11(a) of the Investment
Company Act of 1940 (‘‘Act’’) (15 U.S.C.
80a–11(a)) provides that it is unlawful
for a registered open-end investment
company (‘‘fund’’) or its underwriter to
make an offer to the fund’s shareholders
or the shareholders of any other fund to
exchange the fund’s securities for
securities of the same or another fund
on any basis other than the relative net
asset values (‘‘NAVs’’) of the respective
securities to be exchanged, ‘‘unless the
terms of the offer have first been
submitted to and approved by the
Commission or are in accordance with
such rules and regulations as the
Commission may have prescribed in
respect of such offers.’’ Section 11(a)
was designed to prevent ‘‘switching,’’
the practice of inducing shareholders of
one fund to exchange their shares for
the shares of another fund for the
purpose of exacting additional sales
charges.
Rule 11a–3 (17 CFR 270.11a–3) under
the Act of 1940 is an exemptive rule that
permits open-end investment
companies (‘‘funds’’), other than
insurance company separate accounts,
and funds’ principal underwriters, to
make certain exchange offers to fund
shareholders and shareholders of other
funds in the same group of investment

companies. The rule requires a fund,
among other things, (i) to disclose in its
prospectus and advertising literature the
amount of any administrative or
redemption fee imposed on an exchange
transaction, (ii) if the fund imposes an
administrative fee on exchange
transactions, other than a nominal one,
to maintain and preserve records with
respect to the actual costs incurred in
connection with exchanges for at least
six years, and (iii) give the fund’s
shareholders a sixty day notice of a
termination of an exchange offer or any
material amendment to the terms of an
exchange offer (unless the only material
effect of an amendment is to reduce or
eliminate an administrative fee, sales
load or redemption fee payable at the
time of an exchange).
The rule’s requirements are designed
to protect investors against abuses
associated with exchange offers, provide
fund shareholders with information
necessary to evaluate exchange offers
and certain material changes in the
terms of exchange offers, and enable the
Commission staff to monitor funds’ use
of administrative fees charged in
connection with exchange transactions.
The staff estimates that there are
approximately 1,606 active open-end
investment companies registered with
the Commission as of September 2017.
The staff estimates that 25 percent (or
402) of these funds impose a nonnominal administrative fee on exchange
transactions. The staff estimates that the
recordkeeping requirement of the rule
requires approximately 1 hour annually
of clerical time per fund, for a total of
402 hours for all funds.
The staff estimates that 5 percent of
these 1,606 funds (or 80) terminate an
exchange offer or make a material
change to the terms of their exchange
offer each year, requiring the fund to
comply with the notice requirement of
the rule. The staff estimates that
complying with the notice requirement
of the rule requires approximately 1
hour of attorney time and 2 hours of
clerical time per fund, for a total of
approximately 240 hours for all funds to
comply with the notice requirement.
The staff estimates that such notices
will be enclosed with other written
materials sent to shareholders, such as
annual shareholder reports or account
statements, and therefore any burdens
associated with mailing required notices
are accounted for in the burdens
associated with Form N–1A registration
statements for funds. The recordkeeping
and notice requirements together
therefore impose a total burden of 642
hours on all funds. The total number of
respondents is 482, each responding
once a year. The burdens associated
