Retail Price Improvement Program for the benefit of retail investors.
The proposed rule change was published for comment in the Federal
Register on April 15, 2021.\3\ The Commission received a comment letter
on the proposed rule change.\4\

\2\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4.
\3\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 91523 (April 9,
2021), 86 FR 19912 (April 15, 2021).

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Section 19(b)(2) of the Act \5\ provides that within 45 days of the
publication of notice of the filing of a proposed rule change, or
within such longer period up to 90 days (i) as the Commission may
designate if it finds such longer period to be appropriate and
publishes its reasons for so finding or (ii) as to which the self-
regulatory organization consents, the Commission shall either approve
the proposed rule change, disapprove the proposed rule change, or
institute proceedings to determine whether the proposed rule change
should be disapproved. The 45th day after publication of the notice for
this proposed rule change is May 30, 2021. The Commission is extending

the Act,\6\ the Commission designates July 14, 2021, as the date by
which the Commission shall either approve or disapprove, or institute
proceedings to determine whether to disapprove, the proposed rule
