162 / Wednesday, August 22, 2007 / Notices 47115
2. Statutory Basis
The Exchange believes that its
proposal is consistent with Section 6(b)
of the Act 9 in general, and furthers the
objective of Section 6(b)(5) of the Act 10
in particular, in that it is designed to
promote just and equitable principles of
trade, to remove impediments to and
perfect the mechanisms of a free and
open market and the national market
system, and, in general to protect
investors and the public interest, by
extending the Pilot Program for an
additional six months.
B. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement on Burden on Competition
The Exchange does not believe that
the proposed rule change will impose
any burden on competition that is not
necessary or appropriate in furtherance
of the purposes of the Act.
C. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement on Comments on the
Proposed Rule Change Received From
Members, Participants, or Others
No written comments were either
solicited or received.
III. Date of Effectiveness of the
Proposed Rule Change and Timing for
Commission Action
Because the foregoing rule change
does not: (1) Significantly affect the
protection of investors or the public
interest; (2) impose any significant
burden on competition; and (3) become
operative for 30 days from the date of
this filing, or such shorter time as the
Commission may designate, it has
become effective pursuant to Section
19(b)(3)(A) of the Act 11 and Rule 19b–
4(f)(6) thereunder.12
A proposed rule change filed under
19b–4(f)(6) normally may not become
operative prior to 30 days after the date
of filing.13 However, Rule 19b–
4(f)(6)(iii) 14 permits the Commission to
designate a shorter time if such action
is consistent with the protection of
investors and the public interest. The
Exchange has requested that the
Commission waive the 30-day operative
delay. The Commission believes that

19b–4(f)(6)(iii) requires that a self-regulatory
organization submit to the Commission written
notice of its intent to file the proposed rule change,
along with a brief description and text of the
jlentini on PROD1PC65 with NOTICES
proposed rule change, at least five business days
prior to the date of filing of the proposed rule
change, or such shorter time as designated by the
Commission. Phlx has satisfied the five-day pre-
filing requirement.

waiving the 30-day operative delay is
consistent with the protection of
investors and in the public interest
because it will allow the Pilot Program
to continue uninterrupted. For this
reason, the Commission designates that
the proposed rule change become
operative immediately.15
At any time within 60 days of the
filing of the proposed rule change, the
Commission may summarily abrogate
such rule change if it appears to the
Commission that such action is
necessary or appropriate in the public
interest, for the protection of investors,
or otherwise in furtherance of the Act.
