In its filing with the Commission, the

1. Purpose
The purpose of the proposed rule
change is to amend Rule 7660 to
modernize and clarify the scope of the
recordkeeping obligations for Floor
Participants 3 relating to communication
devices. Specifically, the Exchange is
proposing to amend Rule 7660 to: (1)
codify that the registration requirement
is only applicable to any
communication device to be used for
business purposes; and (2) explicitly
provide that Floor Participants must
maintain records of the use of any
communication devices on the Trading
Floor.4
Rule 7660, which applies to the use
of electronic communication devices on
the Trading Floor, was adopted in 2017
3 The term ‘‘Floor Participant’’ means Floor
Brokers as defined in Rule 7540 and Floor Market
Makers as defined in Rule 8510(b). See BOX Rule
100(a)(26).
4 The term ‘‘Trading Floor’’ or ‘‘Options Floor’’
means the physical trading floor of the Exchange
located in Chicago. The Trading Floor shall consist
of one ‘‘Crowd Area’’ or ‘‘Pit’’ where all option
classes will be located. The Crowd Area or Pit shall
be marked with specific visible boundaries on the
Trading Floor, as determined by the Exchange. A
Floor Broker must open outcry an order in the
Crowd Area. See BOX Rule 100(a)(68).

Upon Written Request Copies Available From: Securities and Exchange

Notice is hereby given that, pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction
Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), the Securities and Exchange
Commission (``Commission'') has submitted to the Office of Management
and Budget the request for extension of the previously approved
collection of information discussed below.
Schedule TO (17 CFR 240.14d-100) must be filed by a reporting
company that makes a tender offer for its own securities. Also, persons
other than the reporting company making a tender offer for equity
securities registered under Section 12 of the Exchange Act (15 U.S.C.
78l) (which offer, if consummated, would cause that person to own over
5% of that class of the securities) must file Schedule TO. The purpose
of Schedule TO is to improve communications between public companies
and investors before companies file registration statements involving
tender offer statements. Schedule TO takes approximately 44.752 hours
per response and is filed by approximately 1,378 issuers annually. We
estimate that 50% of the 44.752 hours per response (22.376 hours) is
prepared by the issuer for an annual reporting burden of 30,834 hours
(22.376 hours per response x 1,378 responses). An agency may conduct or
