Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) 1 of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the
‘‘Act’’) and Rule 19b–4 thereunder,2
notice is hereby given that, on October
13, 2010, NYSE Arca, Inc. (the
‘‘Exchange’’ or ‘‘NYSE Arca’’) filed with
the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the ‘‘Commission’’) the
proposed rule change as described in
Items I and II below, which Items have
been prepared by the self-regulatory
organization. The Commission is
publishing this notice to solicit
comments on the proposed rule change
from interested persons.
I. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement of the Terms of Substance of
the Proposed Rule Change
The Exchange proposes to amend
NYSE Arca Equities Rule 7.37, Order
Execution, to clarify Users’ ability to
instruct NYSE Arca to bypass nonRegulation NMS protected market
centers when routing away. The text of
the proposed rule change is available at
the Exchange, the Commission’s Public
Reference Room, at the Commission’s

U.S.C.78s(b)(1).
CFR 240.19b–4.

II. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement of the Purpose of, and
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule
Change
In its filing with the Commission, the
self-regulatory organization included
statements concerning the purpose of,
and basis for, the proposed rule change
and discussed any comments it received
on the proposed rule change. The text
of those statements may be examined at
the places specified in Item IV below.
The Exchange has prepared summaries,
set forth in sections A, B, and C below,
of the most significant parts of such
statements.
A. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement of the Purpose of, and
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule
Change

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE
COMMISSION

Web site at http://www.sec.gov, and
http://www.nyse.com.

1. Purpose
The Exchange proposes to amend
NYSE Arca Equities Rule 7.37, Order
Execution, to clarify Users’ ability to
instruct NYSE Arca when routing
eligible unexecuted orders to bypass any
market centers that are not posting
Protected Quotations within the
meaning of Regulation NMS.
In March 2008, NYSE Arca Equities
began offering clients access to
undisplayed liquidity via Indications of
Interest by adding several new routing
venues (‘‘IOI Routing Functionality’’). In
May 2008, NYSE Arca Equities provided
Users the ability to opt out of this IOI
Routing Functionality. Users are
currently able to opt out of IOI Routing
Functionality while retaining the ability
to use the full array of routable orders
by marking any routable order as not
eligible to route to market centers that
are not posting Protected Quotations.
In order to increase awareness of this
option, the Exchange now proposes to
add the following text to proposed Rule
7.37(d)(4):
For an order that has not been
executed in its entirety pursuant to
paragraphs (a) through (c) of this Rule,
and which is otherwise eligible to route
away, Users may instruct NYSE Arca to
bypass any market centers that are not
posting Protected Quotations within the
meaning of Regulation NMS.
The Exchange also notes that the
proposed rule is substantially similar to
Nasdaq Rule 4758 (1)(A)(iv).
2. Statutory Basis
The proposed rule change is
consistent with Section 6(b) 3 of the Act,
in general, and furthers the objectives of
3 15

Jkt 223001

U.S.C. 78f(b).

Section 6(b)(5) 4 in particular in that it
is designed to prevent fraudulent and
manipulative acts and practices, to
promote just and equitable principles of
trade, to foster cooperation and
coordination with persons engaged in
facilitating transactions in securities,
and to remove impediments to and
perfect the mechanism of a free and
open market and a national market
system. The Exchange believes that the
proposed amendment is consistent with
the goal of removing impediments to a
free and open market because the
changes proposed herein will clarify
currently existing routing options
designed to give Users flexibility and
control over how their orders route to
away market centers.
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 solicited
or received with respect to the proposed
rule change.
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 5 and Rule 19b–
4(f)(6)(iii) thereunder.6
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
4 15

U.S.C. 78f(b)(5).
U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A).
6 17 CFR 240.19b–4(f)(6). In addition, Rule 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
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.
