Section 6(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”) [1] provides that an exchange may register as a national securities exchange solely for the purposes of trading security futures products by filing a written notice with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“Commission”) if such exchange is designated as a contract market by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission or registered as a derivative transaction execution facility under section 5a of the Commodity Exchange Act.[2] Rule 6a-4 under the Exchange Act [3] requires that such an exchange submit written notice of registration to the Commission on Form 1-N.[4] An exchange's registration ( printed page 65157) as a national securities exchange becomes effective contemporaneously with the submission of the written notice on Form 1-N.[5]
On August 22, 2002, OneChicago, LLC (“OneChicago”) filed a Form 1-N with the Commission. Pursuant to section 6(g)(3) of the Exchange Act,[6] the Commission hereby acknowledges receipt of the Form 1-N submitted by OneChicago. Copies of the Form 1-N submitted by OneChicago, including all exhibits, are available in the Commission's Public Reference Room, File No. 10-133.
