SUMMARY INFORMATION: The Copyright
Act, title 17 of the United States Code,
grants to sound recordings copyright
owners the exclusive right to publicly
perform sound recordings by means of
certain digital audio transmissions,
subject to limitations. Specifically, the
right is limited by the statutory license
in section 114 which allows nonexempt
noninteractive digital subscription
services, eligible nonsubscription
services, pre-existing subscription
services, new subscription services, and
preexisting satellite digital audio radio
services to perform publicly sound
recordings by means of digital audio
transmissions. 17 U.S.C. 114(f). In
addition, a statutory license in section
112 allows a service to make necessary
ephemeral reproductions to facilitate
the digital transmission of the sound
recording, including for transmissions
to business establishments. 17 U.S.C.
112(e).
Licensees may operate under these
licenses provided they pay the royalty
fees and comply with the terms set by
the Copyright Royalty Judges. The rates
and terms for the section 112 and 114
licenses are set forth in 37 CFR parts
380 and 382–84.
As part of the terms set for these
licenses, the Judges designated
SoundExchange, Inc., as the Collective,
i.e., the organization charged with
collecting the royalty payments and
statements of account submitted by
Commercial Webcasters, Preexisting
Subscription Services, New
Subscription Services, and Business
Establishment Services, and with
distributing the royalties to the
copyright owners and performers
entitled to receive them under the
section 112 and 114 licenses. See 37
CFR 380.4, 382.5, 383.4, 384.4.
As the Collective, SoundExchange
may, only once a year, conduct an audit
of a licensee for any or all of the prior
three calendar years in order to verify
royalty payments. SoundExchange must
first file with the Judges a notice of
intent to audit a licensee and deliver the
notice to the licensee. 37 CFR 380.6,
382.7, 383.4. 384.6.
On January 29, 2020, SoundExchange
filed with the Judges a notice of intent
to audit Mood Media Corporation and
its affiliates (primarily Muzak LLC and
DMX Music) for the years 2017, 2018,
and 2019. The Judges must publish
notice in the Federal Register within 30
days of receipt of a notice announcing
the Collective’s intent to conduct an

requirement with respect to
SoundExchange’s January 29, 2020
notice of intent to audit.

On
October 9, 2019, the President issued
Executive Order (E.O.) 13891,
‘‘Promoting the Rule of Law Through
Improved Agency Guidance
Documents.’’ Central principles of E.O.
13891 are that the American public
should only be subject to binding rules
imposed through duly enacted statutes
or through regulations that are lawfully
promulgated, and that Americans
should have fair notice of any such
obligations. To ensure increasing
transparency, section 3 of the E.O.
requires each agency to establish on its
website a single, searchable, indexed
database that contains, or links to, all of
the agency’s ‘‘guidance documents,’’ as
defined in the E.O., and provides certain
information about them. Accordingly,
PBGC has established the required
guidance document database at
www.pbgc.gov/guidance. The guidance
document database contains links to
PBGC ‘‘guidance documents.’’

Rule Change To Amend PSX Rule 3506
(Anti-Money Laundering Compliance
Program) and Options 9, Section 21
(Anti-Money Laundering Compliance
Program)
February 24, 2020.
Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934
(‘‘Act’’),1 and Rule 19b–4 thereunder,2
notice is hereby given that on February
18, 2020, Nasdaq PHLX LLC (‘‘Phlx’’ or
‘‘Exchange’’) filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission (‘‘SEC’’ or
‘‘Commission’’) the proposed rule
change as described in Items I, II, and
III, below, which Items have been
prepared by the Exchange. 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 PSX
Rule 3506 and Options 9, Section 21,
both titled ‘‘Anti-Money Laundering
Compliance Program.’’ This rule change
is intended to reflect the Financial
Crimes Enforcement Network’s
(‘‘FinCEN’’) adoption of a final rule on
Customer Due Diligence Requirements
for Financial Institutions (‘‘CDD Rule’’).
Specifically, the proposed amendments
would conform PSX Rule 3506 and
Options 9, Section 21 to the CDD Rule’s
amendments to the minimum regulatory
requirements for members’ anti-money
laundering (‘‘AML’’) compliance
programs by requiring such programs to
include risk-based procedures for
conducting ongoing customer due
diligence. This ongoing customer due
diligence element for AML programs
includes: (1) Understanding the nature
and purpose of customer relationships
for the purpose of developing a
customer risk profile; and (2)
conducting ongoing monitoring to
identify and report suspicious
transactions and, on a risk basis, to
maintain and update customer
information.
The Exchange has designated this
proposal as ‘‘non-controversial’’ under
