I. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Terms of Substance 
of the Proposed Rule Change

    The Exchange proposes to rename the ``Extended Trading Hours'' to 
``Global Trading Hours'' in its rules and Fees Schedule.
    The text of the proposed rule change is also available on the

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 these 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 aspects of such 
statements.

A. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Purpose of, and 
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change

1. Purpose
    The purpose of this filing is to reflect in the Exchange's rulebook 
and Fees Schedule, a non-substantive branding change with respect to 
the Exchange's ``Extended Trading Hours'' session.\3\ Particularly, 
references to ``Extended Trading Hours'' or ``ETH'' will be deleted and 
revised to state the new session name of ``Global Trading Hours'' or 
``GTH'', respectively, throughout the Exchange's rulebook and Fees 
Schedule. No other substantive changes are being proposed in this 
filing. The Exchange represents that these changes are concerned solely 
with the administration of the Exchange and do not affect the meaning, 
administration, or enforcement of any rules of the Exchange or the 
rights, obligations, or privileges of Exchange members or their 
associated persons is any way.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ The ``Extended Trading Hours'' session refers to the hours 
outside of Regular Trading Hours during which the Exchange may be 
open for trading as set forth in Rule 6.1 and may be referred to as 
a ``trading session'' in the Rules.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

2. Statutory Basis
    The Exchange believes the proposed rule change is consistent with 
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the ``Act'') and the rules and 
regulations thereunder applicable to the Exchange and, in particular, 
the requirements of Section 6(b) of the Act.\4\ Specifically, the 
Exchange believes the proposed rule change is consistent with Section 
6(b)(4) of the Act10,\5\ which provides that Exchange rules may provide 
for the equitable allocation of reasonable dues, fees, and other 
charges among its Permit Holders and other persons using its 
facilities. Additionally, the Exchange believes the proposed rule 
change is consistent with the Section 6(b)(5) \6\ requirement that the 
rules of an exchange not be designed to permit unfair discrimination 
between customers, issuers, brokers, or dealers.

    \5\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(4).
    \6\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In particular, the proposed change is a non-substantive change and 
does not impact the governance, ownership or operations of the 
Exchange. The Exchange believes that by ensuring that its rules and 
Fees Schedule reflect the new branding name for the Extended Trading 
Hours session, 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 Act. The proposed rule change 
does not address competitive issues, but rather is concerned solely 
with updating the Exchange's rules and Fees Schedule to reflect the 
abovementioned name change.

Rule Change Received From Members, Participants, or Others

    The Exchange neither solicited nor received comments on the
