28
15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A).
29
17 CFR 240.19b–4(f)(6). In addition, Rule 19b–
4(f)(6) requires a self-regulatory organization to give
the Commission written notice of its intent to file
the 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. The Exchange has satisfied this
requirement.
30
17 CFR 240.19b–4(f)(6)(iii).
31
See supra note 3.
32
For purposes only of waiving the 30-day
operative delay, the Commission has also
considered the proposed rule’s impact on
efficiency, competition, and capital formation. See
15 U.S.C. 78c(f).
33
17 CFR 200.30–3(a)(12).
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 proposed rule
change does not: (i) Significantly affect
the protection of investors or the public
interest; (ii) impose any significant
burden on competition; and (iii) become
operative for 30 days from the date on
which it was filed, or such shorter time
as the Commission may designate, it has
become effective pursuant to Section
19(b)(3)(A) of the Act
28
and Rule 19b–
4(f)(6) thereunder.
29
A proposed rule change filed
pursuant to Rule 19b–4(f)(6) under the
Act normally does not become operative
for 30 days after the date of its filing.
However, Rule 19b–4(f)(6)(iii)
30
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 so that the proposal may
become operative immediately upon
filing. The Commission notes that it
recently approved Phlx’s substantially
similar proposal to list and trade
Monday IWM Expirations and
Wednesday IWM Expirations.
31
The
Exchange has stated that waiver of the
operative delay will permit the
Exchange to immediately amend NOM
Options 4, Section 5 at Supplementary
Material .03 to permit the Exchange to
offer Monday and Wednesday
expirations for options listed pursuant
to the Program on IWM similar to Phlx.
For these reasons, the Commission
believes that the proposed rule change
presents no novel issues and that waiver
of the 30-day operative delay is
consistent with the protection of
investors and the public interest, and
will allow the Exchange to remain
competitive with other exchanges.
Accordingly, the Commission hereby
waives the operative delay and
designates the proposed rule change
operative upon filing.
32
At any time within 60 days of the
filing of the proposed rule change, the
Commission summarily may
temporarily suspend 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 purposes of the Act. If the
Commission takes such action, the
Commission shall institute proceedings
to determine whether the proposed rule
change should be approved or
disapproved.
IV. Solicitation of Comments

submit written data, views, and

change is consistent with the Act.
