Description of the Amendments to the CAT NMS Plan The Participants previously formed a Delaware limited liability company named CAT NMS, LLC for the purpose of conducting activities related to the consolidated audit trail (‘‘CAT’’), and CAT NMS, LLC currently conducts those activities.8 The Participants are the limited liability company members of CAT NMS, LLC. The Limited Liability Company Agreement of CAT NMS, LLC, itself, including its appendices, is the CAT NMS Plan, the national market system plan as defined in Rule 600(b)(43) of Regulation NMS under the Exchange Act.9 The Participants propose to form a new Delaware limited liability company named Consolidated Audit Trail, LLC for the purpose of conducting activities related to the CAT from and after the effectiveness of the proposed amendment of the CAT NMS Plan, and Consolidated Audit Trail, LLC will conduct those activities from and after that time. The Participants will be the limited liability company members of Consolidated Audit Trail, LLC. Upon the effectiveness of the proposed amendment of the CAT NMS Plan, the Limited Liability Company Agreement of Consolidated Audit Trail, LLC would serve as the CAT NMS Plan, and the Limited Liability Company Agreement of CAT NMS, LLC would no longer serve as the CAT NMS Plan. The language of the Limited Liability Company Agreement of Consolidated Audit Trail, LLC is the same as the language of the Limited Liability Company Agreement of CAT NMS, LLC except for changes related to the name of the new limited liability company and the date of the agreement.10 Specifically, the proposed amendment would replace the name CAT NMS, LLC with the name Consolidated Audit Trail, LLC in the title, opening paragraph, Section 2.3 and the title of Exhibit A of the new limited liability company agreement. In addition, the proposed amendment would replace the current date of the agreement in the opening paragraph with the date of the new agreement with Consolidated Audit Trail, LLC. Accordingly, the proposed Countryman, Secretary, Commission, dated August 29, 2019. 8 CAT NMS Plan Approval Order at 84699. 9 Id. 10 In addition to these name changes, the Operating Committee notes that the names and addresses of the Participants have been updated in the signature block and Exhibit A of the Limited Liability Company Agreement of Consolidated Audit Trail, LLC to reflect the current names and addresses of the Participants. These changes are set forth in the Appendix A to this letter. PO 00000 Frm 00039 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 revisions to the current CAT NMS Plan are limited only to those that are necessary to accommodate the creation of the new limited liability company, not to change any of the substantive provisions of the CAT NMS Plan that govern the way activities with regard to the CAT are performed, including, for example, provisions related to governance, fees, the Plan Processor, and CAT Data. The proposed revisions to the CAT NMS Plan are attached as the Appendix A to this filing. The Operating Committee proposes to amend the CAT NMS Plan for several reasons. On February 26, 2019, the Operating Committee selected a successor Plan Processor for the CAT, FINRA CAT LLC. With FINRA CAT LLC as the successor Plan Processor, a new CAT System will be used to conduct the activities related to the CAT. With a successor Plan Processor and new CAT System, the Operating Committee has been advised that it would be appropriate to utilize a new entity to implement the CAT NMS Plan. The Operating Committee also proposes to create Consolidated Audit Trail, LLC to ensure that fees collected by that entity will fund the development and operation of the CAT System. B. Governing or Constituent Documents The governing document for Consolidated Audit Trail, LLC, the Limited Liability Company Agreement for Consolidated Audit Trail, LLC, is the same as the Limited Liability Agreement for CAT NMS, LLC except for the changes set forth in the Appendix A to this letter. In addition, the changes made to the Limited Liability Company Agreement of CAT NMS, LLC are described above in Section A. C. Implementation of Amendment The terms of the proposed amendment will become effective upon filing pursuant to Rule 608(b)(3)(ii) of the Exchange Act because it is concerned solely with the administration of the Plan, or involving the governing or constituent documents relating to any person authorized to implement or administer the Plan on behalf of its sponsors.11 The Limited Liability Company Agreement of Consolidated Audit Trail, LLC will become the CAT NMS Plan immediately upon filing the proposed amendment with the Commission. To effectuate the proposed amendment upon filing, the Participants have previously filed the necessary documents with the State of Delaware to form Consolidated Audit Trail, LLC. In addition, CAT NMS, LLC 11 17 E:\FR\FM\03OCN1.SGM CFR 242.608(b)(3)(ii). 03OCN1 Federal Register / Vol. 84, No. 192 / Thursday, October 3, 2019 / Notices has taken the necessary steps to assign its agreement with the Plan Processor, FINRA CAT LLC, and the Technical Specifications for the CAT System to Consolidated Audit Trail, LLC and for Consolidated Audit Trail, LLC to guarantee the payment obligations under the promissory notes made by CAT NMS, LLC to the Participants for development costs related to the CAT for the period prior to the creation of Consolidated Audit Trail, LLC. Consolidated Audit Trail, LLC also has taken the necessary steps to enter into new contracts with other third parties performing administrative and other functions on behalf of Consolidated Audit Trail, LLC. At any time within sixty days of the filing of this amendment, the Commission may summarily abrogate the amendment and require that it be refiled in accordance with paragraph (a)(1) of Rule 608 and reviewed in accordance with paragraph (b)(1) of Rule 608, if it appears to the Commission that such action is necessary or appropriate in the public interest, for the protection of investors or 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 Exchange Act. F. Written Understanding or Agreements Relating to Interpretation of, or Participation in, Plan G. Approval by Plan Sponsors in Accordance With Plan Section 12.3 of the CAT NMS Plan states that, subject to certain exceptions, the Plan may be amended from time to time only by a written amendment, authorized by the affirmative vote of not less than two-thirds of all of the Participants, that has been approved by the SEC pursuant to Rule 608 or has otherwise become effective under Rule 608. The Participants, by a vote of the Operating Committee taken at a meeting on August 29, 2019, has authorized the filing of this proposed amendment with the SEC in accordance with the Plan. H.

Method and Frequency of Processor Evaluation Not applicable. K. Dispute Resolution Not applicable. III. Solicitation of Comments Not applicable. E. Analysis of Impact on Competition The Participants do not believe the proposed amendments will have any impact on competition, that the proposed amendment is a technical amendment related to the entity which would conduct the activities related to the CAT, and that the proposed amendment does not make substantive changes to the CAT NMS Plan or the operation of the CAT.

and submitted by the Participants to the Commission.\7\

Committee, to Ms. Vanessa Countryman, Secretary, Commission, dated

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

A. Description of the Amendments to the CAT NMS Plan

    The Participants previously formed a Delaware limited liability 
company named CAT NMS, LLC for the purpose of conducting activities 
related to the consolidated audit trail (``CAT''), and CAT NMS, LLC 
currently conducts those activities.\8\ The Participants are the 
limited liability company members of CAT NMS, LLC. The Limited 
Liability Company Agreement of CAT NMS, LLC, itself, including its 
appendices, is the CAT NMS Plan, the national market system plan as 
defined in Rule 600(b)(43) of Regulation NMS under the Exchange Act.\9\ 
The Participants propose to form a new Delaware limited liability 
company named Consolidated Audit Trail, LLC for the purpose of 
conducting activities related to the CAT from and after the 
effectiveness of the proposed amendment of the CAT NMS Plan, and 
Consolidated Audit Trail, LLC will conduct those activities from and 
after that time. The Participants will be the limited liability company 
members of Consolidated Audit Trail, LLC. Upon the effectiveness of the 
proposed amendment of the CAT NMS Plan, the Limited Liability Company 
Agreement of Consolidated Audit Trail, LLC would serve as the CAT NMS 
Plan, and the Limited Liability Company Agreement of CAT NMS, LLC would 
no longer serve as the CAT NMS Plan.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \8\ CAT NMS Plan Approval Order at 84699.
    \9\ Id.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The language of the Limited Liability Company Agreement of 
Consolidated Audit Trail, LLC is the same as the language of the 
Limited Liability Company Agreement of CAT NMS, LLC except for changes 
related to the name of the new limited liability company and the date 
of the agreement.\10\ Specifically, the proposed amendment would 
replace the name CAT NMS, LLC with the name Consolidated Audit Trail, 
LLC in the title, opening paragraph, Section 2.3 and the title of 
Exhibit A of the new limited liability company agreement. In addition, 
the proposed amendment would replace the current date of the agreement 
in the opening paragraph with the date of the new agreement with 
Consolidated Audit Trail, LLC. Accordingly, the proposed revisions to 
the current CAT NMS Plan are limited only to those that are necessary 
to accommodate the creation of the new limited liability company, not 
to change any of the substantive provisions of the CAT NMS Plan that 
govern the way activities with regard to the CAT are performed, 
including, for example, provisions related to governance, fees, the 
Plan Processor, and CAT Data. The proposed revisions to the CAT NMS 
Plan are attached as the Appendix A to this filing.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \10\ In addition to these name changes, the Operating Committee 
notes that the names and addresses of the Participants have been 
updated in the signature block and Exhibit A of the Limited 
Liability Company Agreement of Consolidated Audit Trail, LLC to 
reflect the current names and addresses of the Participants. These 
changes are set forth in the Appendix A to this letter.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Operating Committee proposes to amend the CAT NMS Plan for 
several reasons. On February 26, 2019, the Operating Committee selected 
a successor Plan Processor for the CAT, FINRA CAT LLC. With FINRA CAT 
LLC as the successor Plan Processor, a new CAT System will be used to 
conduct the activities related to the CAT. With a successor Plan 
Processor and new CAT System, the Operating Committee has been advised 
that it would be appropriate to utilize a new entity to implement the 
CAT NMS Plan. The Operating Committee also proposes to create 
Consolidated Audit Trail, LLC to ensure that fees collected by that 
entity will fund the development and operation of the CAT System.

B. Governing or Constituent Documents

    The governing document for Consolidated Audit Trail, LLC, the 
Limited Liability Company Agreement for Consolidated Audit Trail, LLC, 
is the same as the Limited Liability Agreement for CAT NMS, LLC except 
for the changes set forth in the Appendix A to this letter. In 
addition, the changes made to the Limited Liability Company Agreement 
of CAT NMS, LLC are described above in Section A.

C. Implementation of Amendment

    The terms of the proposed amendment will become effective upon 
filing pursuant to Rule 608(b)(3)(ii) of the Exchange Act because it is 
concerned solely with the administration of the Plan, or involving the 
governing or constituent documents relating to any person authorized to 
implement or administer the Plan on behalf of its sponsors.\11\ The 
Limited Liability Company Agreement of Consolidated Audit Trail, LLC 
will become the CAT NMS Plan immediately upon filing the proposed 
amendment with the Commission. To effectuate the proposed amendment 
upon filing, the Participants have previously filed the necessary 
documents with the State of Delaware to form Consolidated Audit Trail, 
LLC. In addition, CAT NMS, LLC

[[Page 52907]]

has taken the necessary steps to assign its agreement with the Plan 
Processor, FINRA CAT LLC, and the Technical Specifications for the CAT 
System to Consolidated Audit Trail, LLC and for Consolidated Audit 
Trail, LLC to guarantee the payment obligations under the promissory 
notes made by CAT NMS, LLC to the Participants for development costs 
related to the CAT for the period prior to the creation of Consolidated 
Audit Trail, LLC. Consolidated Audit Trail, LLC also has taken the 
necessary steps to enter into new contracts with other third parties 
performing administrative and other functions on behalf of Consolidated 
Audit Trail, LLC.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \11\ 17 CFR 242.608(b)(3)(ii).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    At any time within sixty days of the filing of this amendment, the 
Commission may summarily abrogate the amendment and require that it be 
refiled in accordance with paragraph (a)(1) of Rule 608 and reviewed in 
accordance with paragraph (b)(1) of Rule 608, if it appears to the 
Commission that such action is necessary or appropriate in the public 
interest, for the protection of investors or 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 Exchange Act.

D. Development and Implementation Phases

    Not applicable.

E. Analysis of Impact on Competition

    The Participants do not believe the proposed amendments will have 
any impact on competition, that the proposed amendment is a technical 
amendment related to the entity which would conduct the activities 
related to the CAT, and that the proposed amendment does not make 
substantive changes to the CAT NMS Plan or the operation of the CAT.

F. Written Understanding or Agreements Relating to Interpretation of, 
or Participation in, Plan

    Not applicable.

G. Approval by Plan Sponsors in Accordance With Plan

    Section 12.3 of the CAT NMS Plan states that, subject to certain 
exceptions, the Plan may be amended from time to time only by a written 
amendment, authorized by the affirmative vote of not less than two-
thirds of all of the Participants, that has been approved by the SEC 
pursuant to Rule 608 or has otherwise become effective under Rule 608. 
The Participants, by a vote of the Operating Committee taken at a 
meeting on August 29, 2019, has authorized the filing of this proposed 
amendment with the SEC in accordance with the Plan.
