Section 19(b)(2) of the Act 10 provides
that, after initiating disapproval
proceedings, the Commission shall issue
an order approving or disapproving the
proposed rule change not later than 180
days after the date of publication of
notice of filing of the proposed rule

the period for issuing an order
approving or disapproving the proposed
rule change, however, by not more than
60 days if the Commission determines
that a longer period is appropriate and
publishes the reasons for such
determination. The proposed rule
change was published for notice and
comment in the Federal Register on
January 25, 2024. July 23, 2024, is 180
days from that date. The Commission is
extending the time period for approving
or disapproving the proposed rule

Commission finds it appropriate to

so that it has sufficient time to consider
the proposed rule change and the issues
raised therein. Accordingly, the
Commission, pursuant to Section
19(b)(2) of the Act,11 designates
September 21, 2024, as the date by
