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 30 and Rule
19b–4(f)(6) thereunder.31
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) 32 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 Exchange notes that the
Commission has approved and noticed
for immediate effectiveness proposed
rule changes to permit listing and
trading on the Exchange of Active Proxy
Portfolio Shares similar to the Fund.33
The proposed listing rule for the Fund
raises no novel legal or regulatory
issues. Thus, the Commission believes
that waiver of the 30-day operative
delay is consistent with the protection
of investors and the public interest.
Accordingly, the Commission hereby
waives the 30-day operative delay and
designates the proposed rule change
operative upon filing.34
At any time within 60 days of the
filing of such proposed rule change, the
Commission summarily may
30 15

U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A).
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.
32 17 CFR 240.19b–4(f)(6)(iii).
33 See supra notes 9 and 10.
34 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).

temporarily suspend such rule change if

action is necessary or appropriate in the
public interest, for the protection of
investors, or otherwise in furtherance of
the purposes of the Act.

Extension:
Rule 204A–1

Notice is hereby given that, pursuant
to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), the Securities
and Exchange Commission (the
‘‘Commission’’) is soliciting comments
on the collections of information
summarized below. The Commission
plans to submit these existing
collections of information to the Office
of Management and Budget for
extension and approval.
The title for the collection of
information is ‘‘Rule 204A–1 (17 CFR
275.204A–1) under the Investment
Advisers Act of 1940’’ (15 U.S.C. 80b–
1 et seq.). Rule 204A–1 (the ‘‘Code of
Ethics Rule’’) requires investment
advisers registered with the Commission
to (i) set forth standards of conduct
expected of advisory personnel
(including compliance with the federal
securities laws); (ii) safeguard material
nonpublic information about client
transactions; and (iii) require the
adviser’s ‘‘access persons’’ to report
their personal securities transactions,
including transactions in any mutual
fund managed by the adviser. The Code
of Ethics Rule requires access persons to
obtain the adviser’s approval before
investing in an initial public offering or
private placement. The Code of Ethics
Rule also requires prompt reporting, to
the adviser’s chief compliance officer or
another person designated in the code of
ethics, of any violations of the code.
Finally, the Code of Ethics Rule requires
the adviser to provide each supervised
person with a copy of the code and any
amendments, and require the

supervised persons to acknowledge, in
writing, their receipt of these copies.
The purposes of the information
collection requirements are to: (i)
Ensure that advisers maintain codes of
ethics applicable to their supervised
persons; (ii) provide advisers with
information about the personal
securities transactions of their access
persons for purposes of monitoring such
transactions; (iii) provide advisory
clients with information with which to
evaluate advisers’ codes of ethics; and
(iv) assist the Commission’s
examination staff in assessing the
adequacy of advisers’ codes of ethics
and assessing personal trading activity
by advisers’ supervised persons.
The respondents to this information
collection are investment advisers
registered with the Commission. The
Commission has estimated that
compliance with rule 204A–1 imposes a
burden of approximately 87 hours per
adviser annually for an estimated total
annual burden of 1,275,659 hours.
An agency may not conduct or
sponsor a collection of information
unless it displays a currently valid OMB
control number. No person shall be
subject to any penalty for failing to
comply with a collection of information
subject to the PRA that does not display
a valid OMB control number.
Written comments are invited on: (a)
Whether the proposed collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
Commission, including whether the
information shall have practical utility;
(b) the accuracy of the Commission’s
estimates of the burden of the proposed
collection of information; (c) ways to
enhance the quality, utility, and clarity
of the information collected; and (d)
ways to minimize the burden of the
collection of information on
respondents, including through the use
of automated collection techniques or
other forms of information technology.
Consideration will be given to
comments and suggestions submitted in
writing within 60 days of this
publication by May 27, 2022.
Please direct your written comments
to David Bottom, Director/Chief
Information Officer, Securities and
Exchange Commission, C/O John
Pezzullo, 100 F Street NE, Washington,
DC 20549; or send an email to: PRA_
