II. Description of the Proposal
The Exchange proposes to modify
NYSE Rule 7.35B(f)(2), which sets forth
rules pertaining to the cancellation of
MOC, LOC, and Closing IO Orders
before the Closing Auction Imbalance
Freeze, and to make conforming changes
to NYSE Rule 7.35B(j)(2)(B).
NYSE Rule 7.35B(f) provides that the
Auction Imbalance Freeze for the
Closing Auction will begin at the
Closing Auction Imbalance Freeze Time
and specifies how order entry and
cancellation will be processed during
the Closing Auction Imbalance Freeze.7
NYSE Rule 7.35B(f)(2)(A) currently
provides that, between the beginning of
the Auction Imbalance Freeze and two
minutes before the scheduled end of the
Core Trading Hours, MOC, LOC, and
Closing IO Orders 8 may be canceled or
reduced in size only to correct a
Legitimate Error.9 NYSE Rule
7.35B(f)(2)(B) currently specifies that,
except as provided for in NYSE Rule
7.35B(j)(2)(B),10 a request to cancel,
cancel and replace, or reduce in size a
MOC, LOC, or Closing IO Order entered
two minutes or less before the
scheduled end of the Core Trading
Hours will be rejected.
The Exchange proposes to modify
NYSE Rule 7.35B(f)(2) to provide that
any requests to cancel, cancel and
replace, or reduce in size a MOC, LOC,
or Closing IO Order that are entered
between the beginning of the Auction
Imbalance Freeze and the scheduled
end of Core Trading Hours would be
rejected. As proposed, requests to
7 The ‘‘Auction Imbalance Freeze’’ is the period
that begins before the scheduled time for an
Auction. See NYSE Rule 7.35(a)(3). ‘‘Auction’’
means the process for the opening, reopening, or
closing of the trading of Auction-Eligible Securities
on the Exchange, and an ‘‘Auction-Eligible
Security’’ is a security for which the Exchange is
the primary listing market. See NYSE Rules
7.35(a)(1) and 7.35(a)(2). The ‘‘Closing Auction’’ is
the Auction that closes trading at the end of the
Core Trading Session, and the ‘‘Closing Auction
Imbalance Freeze Time’’ is 10 minutes before the
scheduled end of Core Trading Hours. See NYSE
Rules 7.35(a)(1)(C) and 7.35(a)(8).
8 A ‘‘MOC Order’’ or ‘‘Market-on-Close Order’’ is
a Market Order that is to be traded only during a
closing auction. See NYSE Rule 7.31(c)(2)(B). A
‘‘LOC Order’’ or ‘‘Limit-on-Close Order’’ is a Limit
Order that is to be traded only during a closing
auction. See NYSE Rule 7.31(c)(2)(A). A ‘‘Closing
IO Order’’ or ‘‘Closing Imbalance Offset Order’’ is
a Limit Order to buy (sell) an in an Auction-Eligible
Security that it to be traded only in a Closing
Auction. See NYSE Rule 7.31(c)(2)(D).
9 ‘‘Legitimate Error’’ means an error in any term
of an order, such as price, number of shares, side
of the transaction (buy or sell), or identification of
the security. See NYSE Rule 7.35(a)(13).
10 NYSE Rule 7.35B(j)(2)(B) currently specifies
the circumstances under which the Exchange may
temporarily suspend the prohibition on canceling
an MOC or LOC Order in connection with the
Closing Auction.
PO 00000

cancel, replace, and/or reduce in size a
MOC, LOC, or Closing IO Order must be
received prior to the beginning of the
Auction Imbalance Freeze (i.e., 10
minutes prior to the scheduled end of
Core Trading Hours), even in the case of
a Legitimate Error.
Finally, NYSE proposes to make the
following conforming changes to make
NYSE Rule 7.35B(j)(2)(B) consistent
with the proposed changes described
above: (1) Replace the reference to ‘‘two
minutes before the scheduled end of
Core Trading Hours’’ with ‘‘the
beginning of the Auction Imbalance
Freeze,’’ and (2) replace the reference to
‘‘paragraph (f)(2)(B)’’ with ‘‘paragraph
(f)(2).’’ Thus, NYSE Rule 7.35B(j)(2)(B),
as amended, would provide that the
Exchange may temporarily suspend the
prohibition on cancelling an MOC or
LOC Order after the beginning of the
Auction Imbalance Freeze (as such
prohibition would be set forth in NYSE
Rule 7.35B(f)(2), as amended).
III. Proceedings To Determine Whether
To Disapprove SR–NYSE–2021–74 and
Grounds for Disapproval Under
Consideration
The Commission is instituting
proceedings pursuant to Section
19(b)(2)(B) of the Act to determine
whether the proposal should be
approved or disapproved. Institution of
such proceedings is appropriate at this
time in view of the legal and policy
issues raised by the proposal. Institution
of disapproval proceedings does not
indicate that the Commission has
reached any conclusions with respect to
any of the issues involved. Rather, the
Commission encourages interested
persons to provide additional comment
on the proposal.
Pursuant to Section 19(b)(2)(B) of the
Act, the Commission is providing notice
of the grounds for disapproval under
consideration. The Commission is
instituting proceedings to allow for
additional analysis of the proposed rule
change’s consistency with the Act 11
and, in particular, with Section 6(b)(5)
of the Act, which requires, among other
things, that the rules of a national
securities exchanges be designed to
prevent fraudulent and manipulative
acts and practices, to promote just and
equitable principles of trade, 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.12 In addition, Section
6(b)(5) of the Act 13 prohibits the rules

of an exchange from being designed to
permit unfair discrimination between
customers, issuers, brokers, or dealers.
Further, Section 6(b)(8) of the Act
requires that the rules of an exchange
not impose any burden on competition
that is not necessary or appropriate
under the Act.14
The Exchange’s proposal would
change how cancellation of MOC, LOC,
and Closing IO Orders would be
handled under NYSE Rule 7.35(B)(f)(2)
with respect to the NYSE Closing
Auction. The Commission notes that the
Exchange has separately proposed a
different set of changes to its Closing
Auction process and that the other
proposal is currently in proceedings
before the Commission.15 The
Commission believes that it is
appropriate to institute proceedings to
allow for additional analysis and input
concerning the instant proposed rule
change’s consistency with requirements
of the Act and to evaluate this proposed
rule change in light of other pending
proposed changes to the Closing
Auction.
IV. Procedure: Request for Written
Comments
The Commission requests that
interested persons provide written
submissions of their views, data, and
arguments with respect to the issues
identified above, as well as any other
concerns they may have with the
proposal. In particular, the Commission
invites the written views of interested
persons concerning whether the
proposal is consistent with Section
6(b)(5) or any other provision of the Act,
or the rules and regulation thereunder.
Although there do not appear to be any
issues relevant to approval or
disapproval that would be facilitated by
an oral presentation of views, data, and
arguments, the Commission will
consider, pursuant to Rule 19b–4 under
the Act,16 any request for an
opportunity to make an oral
presentation.17

proposal should be approved or

Self-Regulatory Organizations; New York Stock Exchange LLC; Order
Instituting Proceedings To Determine Whether To Approve or Disapprove a
Proposed Rule Change To Amend the Provisions of NYSE Rule 7.35B
March 22, 2022.
I. Introduction
On December 14, 2021, New York Stock Exchange LLC (``NYSE'' or
``Exchange'') filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(``Commission'') pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 (``Act'') \1\ and Rule 19b-4 thereunder,\2\ a
proposed rule change to amend NYSE Rule 7.35B relating to the
cancellation of MOC, LOC, and Closing IO Orders before the Closing
Auction. The proposed rule change was published for comment in the
Federal Register on December 29, 2021.\3\ On February 8, 2022, pursuant
to Section 19(b)(2) of the Act,\4\ the Commission extended the time
period within which to approve the proposed rule change, disapprove the
proposed rule change, or institute proceedings to determine whether to
approve or disapprove the proposed change.\5\ The Commission has
received no comment letters on the proposed rule change.

This order institutes proceedings under Section 19(b)(2)(B) of the
Act \6\ to determine whether to approve or disapprove the proposed rule
change.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\6\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(2)(B).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
II. Description of the Proposal
The Exchange proposes to modify NYSE Rule 7.35B(f)(2), which sets
forth rules pertaining to the cancellation of MOC, LOC, and Closing IO
Orders before the Closing Auction Imbalance Freeze, and to make
conforming changes to NYSE Rule 7.35B(j)(2)(B).
NYSE Rule 7.35B(f) provides that the Auction Imbalance Freeze for
the Closing Auction will begin at the Closing Auction Imbalance Freeze
Time and specifies how order entry and cancellation will be processed
during the Closing Auction Imbalance Freeze.\7\ NYSE Rule
7.35B(f)(2)(A) currently provides that, between the beginning of the
Auction Imbalance Freeze and two minutes before the scheduled end of
the Core Trading Hours, MOC, LOC, and Closing IO Orders \8\ may be
canceled or reduced in size only to correct a Legitimate Error.\9\ NYSE
Rule 7.35B(f)(2)(B) currently specifies that, except as provided for in
NYSE Rule 7.35B(j)(2)(B),\10\ a request to cancel, cancel and replace,
or reduce in size a MOC, LOC, or Closing IO Order entered two minutes
or less before the scheduled end of the Core Trading Hours will be
rejected.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\7\ The ``Auction Imbalance Freeze'' is the period that begins
before the scheduled time for an Auction. See NYSE Rule 7.35(a)(3).
``Auction'' means the process for the opening, reopening, or closing
of the trading of Auction-Eligible Securities on the Exchange, and
an ``Auction-Eligible Security'' is a security for which the
Exchange is the primary listing market. See NYSE Rules 7.35(a)(1)
and 7.35(a)(2). The ``Closing Auction'' is the Auction that closes
trading at the end of the Core Trading Session, and the ``Closing
Auction Imbalance Freeze Time'' is 10 minutes before the scheduled
end of Core Trading Hours. See NYSE Rules 7.35(a)(1)(C) and
7.35(a)(8).
\8\ A ``MOC Order'' or ``Market-on-Close Order'' is a Market
Order that is to be traded only during a closing auction. See NYSE
Rule 7.31(c)(2)(B). A ``LOC Order'' or ``Limit-on-Close Order'' is a
Limit Order that is to be traded only during a closing auction. See
NYSE Rule 7.31(c)(2)(A). A ``Closing IO Order'' or ``Closing
Imbalance Offset Order'' is a Limit Order to buy (sell) an in an
Auction-Eligible Security that it to be traded only in a Closing
Auction. See NYSE Rule 7.31(c)(2)(D).
\9\ ``Legitimate Error'' means an error in any term of an order,
such as price, number of shares, side of the transaction (buy or
sell), or identification of the security. See NYSE Rule 7.35(a)(13).
\10\ NYSE Rule 7.35B(j)(2)(B) currently specifies the
circumstances under which the Exchange may temporarily suspend the
prohibition on canceling an MOC or LOC Order in connection with the
Closing Auction.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Exchange proposes to modify NYSE Rule 7.35B(f)(2) to provide
that any requests to cancel, cancel and replace, or reduce in size a
MOC, LOC, or Closing IO Order that are entered between the beginning of
the Auction Imbalance Freeze and the scheduled end of Core Trading
Hours would be rejected. As proposed, requests to cancel, replace, and/
or reduce in size a MOC, LOC, or Closing IO Order must be received
prior to the beginning of the Auction Imbalance Freeze (i.e., 10
minutes prior to the scheduled end of Core Trading Hours), even in the
case of a Legitimate Error.
Finally, NYSE proposes to make the following conforming changes to
make NYSE Rule 7.35B(j)(2)(B) consistent with the proposed changes
described above: (1) Replace the reference to ``two minutes before the
scheduled end of Core Trading Hours'' with ``the beginning of the
Auction Imbalance Freeze,'' and (2) replace the reference to
``paragraph (f)(2)(B)'' with ``paragraph (f)(2).'' Thus, NYSE Rule
7.35B(j)(2)(B), as amended, would provide that the Exchange may
temporarily suspend the prohibition on cancelling an MOC or LOC Order
after the beginning of the Auction Imbalance Freeze (as such
prohibition would be set forth in NYSE Rule 7.35B(f)(2), as amended).
III. Proceedings To Determine Whether To Disapprove SR-NYSE-2021-74 and
Grounds for Disapproval Under Consideration
The Commission is instituting proceedings pursuant to Section
19(b)(2)(B) of the Act to determine whether the proposal should be
approved or disapproved. Institution of such proceedings is appropriate
at this time in view of the legal and policy issues raised by the
proposal. Institution of disapproval proceedings does not indicate that
the Commission has reached any conclusions with respect to any of the
issues involved. Rather, the Commission encourages interested persons
to provide additional comment on the proposal.
Pursuant to Section 19(b)(2)(B) of the Act, the Commission is
providing notice of the grounds for disapproval under consideration.
The Commission is instituting proceedings to allow for additional
analysis of the proposed rule change's consistency with the Act \11\
and, in particular, with Section 6(b)(5) of the Act, which requires,
among other things, that the rules of a national securities exchanges
be designed to prevent fraudulent and manipulative acts and practices,
to promote just and equitable principles of trade, 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.\12\ In addition, Section 6(b)(5) of the Act \13\
prohibits the rules
[[Page 17347]]
of an exchange from being designed to permit unfair discrimination
between customers, issuers, brokers, or dealers. Further, Section
6(b)(8) of the Act requires that the rules of an exchange not impose
any burden on competition that is not necessary or appropriate under
the Act.\14\

The Exchange's proposal would change how cancellation of MOC, LOC,

with respect to the NYSE Closing Auction. The Commission notes that the
Exchange has separately proposed a different set of changes to its
Closing Auction process and that the other proposal is currently in
proceedings before the Commission.\15\ The Commission believes that it
is appropriate to institute proceedings to allow for additional
analysis and input concerning the instant proposed rule change's
consistency with requirements of the Act and to evaluate this proposed
rule change in light of other pending proposed changes to the Closing
Auction.

IV. Procedure: Request for Written Comments
The Commission requests that interested persons provide written
submissions of their views, data, and arguments with respect to the
issues identified above, as well as any other concerns they may have
with the proposal. In particular, the Commission invites the written
views of interested persons concerning whether the proposal is
consistent with Section 6(b)(5) or any other provision of the Act, or
the rules and regulation thereunder. Although there do not appear to be
any issues relevant to approval or disapproval that would be
facilitated by an oral presentation of views, data, and arguments, the
Commission will consider, pursuant to Rule 19b-4 under the Act,\16\ any
request for an opportunity to make an oral presentation.\17\
