I. Introduction On June 2, 2022, Nasdaq PHLX LLC (‘‘Phlx’’ or the 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 add P.M.-settled Nasdaq-100 Index (‘‘NDX’’) options that expire on Tuesday or Thursday to the Exchange’s Nonstandard Expirations Pilot Program (‘‘Pilot Program’’) and make certain technical amendments to the rules of the Exchange. The proposed rule change was published for comment in the Federal Register on June 21, 2022.3 No comments were received. The Commission is approving the proposed rule change. II. Description of the Proposal The Exchange proposes to amend Options 4A, Section 12(b)(5), which governs its Pilot Program, to permit P.M.-settled Nasdaq-100 Index (‘‘NDXP’’) options that expire on Tuesday or Thursday. Under the existing Pilot Program, the Exchange is permitted to list P.M.-settled options on broad-based indexes that expire on: (1) any Monday, Wednesday, or Friday (‘‘Weekly Expirations’’) and (2) the last trading day of the month (‘‘End of Month Expirations’’ or ‘‘EOMs’’).4 Specifically, the proposed rule change amends Options 4A, Section 12(b)(5)(A) to add NDXP options (P.M.-settled) that expire on Tuesday or Thursday (‘‘Tuesday and Thursday NDXP Expirations’’) as permissible Weekly Expirations under the Pilot Program (currently set to expire on November 4, 2022).5 The Exchange notes that permitting Tuesday and Thursday NDXP Expirations, as proposed, is in addition to the NDXP options with 1 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(1).
