[Federal Register Volume 81, Number 170 (Thursday, September 1, 2016)] [Notices] [Pages 60399-60400] From the Federal Register Online [www.thefederalregister.org] [FR Doc No: 2016-21023] ----------------------------------------------------------------------- SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION [Release No. 34-78702; File No. 4-657] Joint Industry Plan; Notice of Filing and Immediate Effectiveness of Amendment to the Plan To Implement a Tick Size Pilot Program To Add the Investors Exchange LLC as a Participant August 26, 2016. Pursuant to Section 11A(a)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (``Exchange Act'') \1\ and Rule 608 thereunder,\2\ notice is hereby given that on August 5, 2016 Investors Exchange LLC (``IEX'' or ``Exchange'') filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (``Commission'') \3\ an amendment to the Plan to Implement a Tick Size Pilot Program (``Plan'').\4\ The amendment adds IEX as a Participant \5\ to the Plan. The Commission is publishing this notice to solicit comments on the amendment from interested persons. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- \1\ 15 U.S.C. 78k-1(a)(3). \2\ 17 CFR 242.608. \3\ See Letter from Claudia Crowley, Chief Regulatory Officer, Investors Exchange LLC, to Brent J. Fields, Secretary, Securities and Exchange Commission, dated August 5, 2016. \4\ On May 6, 2015, the Commission issued an order approving the Plan, as modified by the Commission, to be implemented within one year after the date of publication of the Order for a two-year Pilot Period (the ``Approval Order''). See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 74892 (May 6, 2015), 80 FR 27513 (May 13, 2015). Thereafter, in November 2015, the Commission issued an order granting the Participants an exemption from implementing the Plan until October 3, 2016. See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 76382 (November 6, 2015), 80 FR 70284 (November 13, 2015). \5\ The term ``Participant'' is defined as a party to the Plan. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- I. Description and Purpose of the Plan Amendment As noted above, the sole proposed amendment to the Plan is to add the Exchange as a Participant. On June 17, 2016, the Commission issued an order granting IEX's application for registration as a national securities exchange.\6\ A condition of the Commission's approval was the requirement for IEX to join the Plan. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- \6\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 78101 (June 17, 2016), 81 FR 41141 (June 23, 2016). --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Under Section II(C) of the Plan, any entity registered as a national securities exchange or national securities association under the Exchange Act may become a Participant by: (1) Executing a copy of the Plan, as then in effect; (2) providing each then-current Participant with a copy of such executed Plan; and (3) effecting an amendment to the Plan as specified in Section III(B) of the Plan. Section III(B) of the Plan sets forth the process for a prospective new Participant to effect an amendment of the Plan. Specifically, the Plan provides that such an amendment to the Plan may be effected by the new national securities exchange or national securities association by executing a copy of the Plan as then in effect (with the only change being the addition of the new Participant's name in Section II(A) of the Plan); and submitting such executed Plan to the Commission. The amendment will be effective when it is approved by the Commission in accordance with Rule 608 of Regulation NMS, or otherwise becomes effective pursuant to Rule 608 of Regulation NMS. IEX has executed a copy of the Plan currently in effect, with the only change being the addition of its name in Section II(A) of the Plan, and has provided a copy of the Plan executed by IEX to each of the other Participants. IEX has also submitted the executed Plan to the Commission. Accordingly, all of the Plan requirements for effecting an amendment to the Plan to add IEX as a Participant have been satisfied. II. Effectiveness of the Proposed Plan Amendment The foregoing Plan amendment has become effective pursuant to Rule 608(b)(3)(iii) of the Exchange Act \7\ because it involves solely technical or ministerial matters. At any time within sixty days of the filing of this amendment, the Commission may summarily abrogate the amendment and require that it be refiled pursuant to paragraph (a)(1) of Rule 608,\8\ if it appears to the Commission that such action is necessary or appropriate in the public interest, for the protection of investors, or the maintenance of fair and orderly markets, to remove impediments to, and perfect the mechanisms of, a national market system or otherwise in furtherance of the purposes of the Exchange Act. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- \7\ 17 CFR 242.608(b)(3)(iii). \8\ 17 CFR 242.608(a)(1). --------------------------------------------------------------------------- III.
