The self-regulatory organization must provide all required information, presented in a
clear and comprehensible manner, to enable the public to provide meaningful
comment on the proposal.
The Notice section of this Form 19b-7 must comply with the guidelines for publication
in the Federal Register, as well as any requirements for electronic filing as published
by the Commission (if applicable). The Office of the Federal Register (OFR) offers
guidance on Federal Register publication requirements in the Federal Register
Document Drafting Handbook, October 1998 Revision. For example, all references to
the federal securities laws must include the corresponding cite to the United States
Code in a footnote. All references to SEC and CFTC rules must include the
corresponding cite to the Code of Federal Regulations in a footnote. All references to
Securities Exchange Act Releases and Commodities Exchange Act Releases must
include the release number, release date, Federal Register cite, Federal Register
date, and corresponding file number (e.g., SR-[SRO]-xx-xx). A material failure to
comply with these guidelines will result in the proposed rule change being deemed
not properly filed. See also Rule 0-3 under the Act (17 CFR 240.0-3)

If the self-regulatory organization is amending only part of the text of a lengthy proposed rule
change, it may, with the Commission staff's permission, file only those portions of the text of
the proposed rule change in which changes are being made if the filing (i.e. partial
amendment) is clearly understandable on its face. Such partial amendment shall be clearly
identified and marked to show deletions and additions.
