Accelerated Approval of Proposed Rule Change, as Modified by Amendment No. 1 The Commission finds good cause to approve the proposed rule change, as modified by Amendment No. 1, prior to the thirtieth day after the date of publication of notice of the filing of Amendment No. 1 in the Federal Register. The proposal, as originally filed, stated that SPX is the only option class for which the Exchange has determined that the orders of MarketMakers and away market makers are not eligible for entry in the COB.21 Amendment No. 1 revises the proposal to indicate that the Exchange has determined that the orders of MarketMakers and away market makers in VIX options, as well as SPX options, are not eligible for entry in the COB. Amendment No. 1 does not modify the rule text or the operation of the proposed rules; rather it corrects an erroneous factual statement regarding the option classes for which the Exchange has determined that the orders of Market-Makers and away market makers are not eligible to rest in the COB. Accordingly, the Commission finds good cause, pursuant to Section 19(b)(2) of the Act,22 to approve the proposed rule change, as modified by Amendment No. 1, on an accelerated basis. Notice, 89 FR at 21549, n.3 and n.4. U.S.C. 78s(b)(2). VI. Conclusion It is therefore ordered, pursuant to section 19(b)(2) of the Act,23 that the proposed rule change (SR–CBOE–2024– 015), as modified by Amendment No. 1, is approved. For the Commission, by the Division of Trading and Markets, pursuant to delegated authority.24 Sherry R. Haywood, Assistant Secretary.
