SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-75569; File No. SR-NYSEArca-2015-01]


Self-Regulatory Organizations; NYSE Arca, Inc.; Notice of 
Designation of a Longer Period for Commission Action on Proceedings to 
Determine Whether to Approve or Disapprove a Proposed Rule Change 
Amending NYSE Arca Equities Rule 5.2(j)(3), Commentary .02 Relating to 
Listing of Investment Company Units Based on Municipal Bond Indexes

July 30, 2015.
    On January 16, 2015, NYSE Arca, Inc. filed with the Securities and 
Exchange Commission (``Commission''), pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of 
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (``Act'') \1\ and Rule 19b-4 
thereunder,\2\ a proposed rule change to amend NYSE Arca Equities Rule 
5.2(j)(3), Commentary .02 relating to the listing of Investment Company 
Units based on municipal bond indexes. The proposed rule change was 
published for comment in the Federal Register on February 4, 2015.\3\ 
On March 19, 2015, pursuant to Section 19(b)(2) of the Act,\4\ the 
Commission designated a longer period within which to approve the 
proposed rule change, disapprove the proposed rule change, or institute 
proceedings to determine whether to disapprove the proposed rule 
change.\5\ On May 4, 2015, the Commission published an order 
instituting proceedings under Section 19(b)(2)(B) of the Act \6\ to 
determine whether to approve or disapprove the proposed rule change.\7\ 
The Commission has received no comment letters on the proposed rule 
change.

    \5\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 74534, 80 FR 15834 
(Mar. 25, 2015). The Commission designated a longer period within 
which to take action on the proposed rule change and designated May 
5, 2015, as the date by which it should approve, disapprove, or 
institute proceedings to determine whether to disapprove the 
proposed rule change.

    \7\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 74863 (May 4, 2015), 
80 FR 26591 (May 8, 2015) (``Order Instituting Proceedings''). 
Specifically, the Commission instituted proceedings to allow for 
additional analysis of the proposed rule change's consistency with 
Section 6(b)(5) of the Act, which requires, among other things, that 
the rules of a national securities exchange be ``designed to prevent 
fraudulent and manipulative acts and practices, to promote just and 
equitable principles of trade,'' and ``to protect investors and the 
public interest.'' See id.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Section 19(b)(2) of the Act \8\ provides that, after initiating 
disapproval proceedings, the Commission shall issue an order approving 
or disapproving the proposed rule change not later than 180 days after 
the date of publication of notice of filing of the proposed rule 
change. The Commission may, however, extend the period for issuing an 
order approving or disapproving the proposed rule change by not more 
than 60 days if the Commission determines that a longer period is 
appropriate and publishes the reasons for that determination. The 
proposed rule change was published for notice and comment in the 
Federal Register on February 4, 2015.\9\ The 180th day after 
publication of the notice of the filing of the proposed rule change in 
the Federal Register is August 3, 2015, and the 240th day after 
publication of the notice of the filing of the proposed rule change in 
the Federal Register is October 2, 2015.

    The Commission finds it appropriate to designate a longer period 
within which to issue an order approving or disapproving the proposed 
rule change so that it has sufficient time to consider the proposed 
rule change.
    Accordingly, the Commission, pursuant to Section 19(b)(2) of the 
Act,\10\ designates October 2, 2015 as the date by which the Commission 
shall either approve or disapprove the proposed rule change (File No. 
SR-NYSEArca-2015-01).
