competition, the proposal is designed as
an innovative way to facilitate more
robust risk management by Members
and Clearing Members, which, in turn,
could enhance the integrity of trading
on the securities markets and help to
assure the stability of the financial
system. Furthermore, other exchanges
are free to propose similar functionality
as they see fit.19
C. Self-Regulatory Organization’s

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 20 and Rule 19b–
4(f)(6) thereunder.21
A proposed rule change filed
pursuant to Rule 19b–4(f)(6) under the
Act 22 normally does not become
operative for 30 days after the date of its
filing. However, Rule 19b–4(f)(6)(iii) 23
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 asked
the Commission to waive the 30-day
operative delay so that the Exchange
may implement the proposed rule
change on the anticipated launch date of
May 22, 2020. The Exchange states that
waiver of the operative delay would
allow Members and Clearing Members
to immediately utilize the proposed
functionality to manage their risk. For
this reason, the Commission believes
that waiver of the 30-day operative
delay is consistent with the protection
of investors and the public interest.
19 The NYSE has adopted similar provisions that
allow for risk settings at a ‘‘sub-ID’’ level. See
Securities Exchange Act No. 88776 (April 29, 2020)
85 FR 26768 (May 5, 2020) (SR–NYSE–2020–17).
20 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A).
21 17 CFR 240.19b–4(f)(6). In addition, Rule 19b–
4(f)(6)(iii) requires a self-regulatory organization to
give 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.

Therefore, the Commission hereby
waives the operative delay and
designates the proposal as operative
upon filing.24
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.

submit written data, views, and

change is consistent with the Act.

with this rule. Each respondent makes
an estimated 1 response annually. Each
response takes approximately 1 hour to
complete. Thus, the total hourly burden
per year is 307 hours. The total
estimated internal labor cost of
compliance for the respondents is
approximately $21,490.00 per year,
resulting in an estimated internal labor
cost of compliance per response of
approximately $70.00 (i.e., $21,490/307
responses).
An agency may not conduct or
sponsor, and a person is not required to
respond to, a collection of information

Rule 101

Notice is hereby given that pursuant
to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(‘‘PRA’’) (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), the
Securities and Exchange Commission
(‘‘Commission’’) has submitted to the

242.101), under the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934 (15 U.S.C. 78a et seq.).
Rule 101 prohibits distribution
participants from purchasing activities
at specified times during a distribution
of securities. Persons otherwise covered
by this rule may seek to use several
applicable exceptions such as a
calculation of the average daily trading
volume of the securities in distribution,
the maintenance of policies regarding
information barriers between their
affiliates, and the maintenance of a
written policy regarding general
compliance with Regulation M for de
minimus transactions.
There are approximately 1,589
respondents per year that require an
aggregate total of 27,215 hours to
comply with this rule. Each respondent
makes an estimated 1 annual response.
Each response takes on average
approximately 17.127 hours to
complete. Thus, the total compliance
burden per year is 27,215 burden hours.
The total estimated internal labor
compliance cost for the respondents is
approximately $1,905,050.00, resulting
in an internal cost of compliance for
each respondent per response of
approximately $1,198.90 (i.e.,
$1,905,050/1,589 responses).
An agency may not conduct or
sponsor, and a person is not required to
respond to, a collection of information
