Self-Regulatory Organizations; CboeBZX Exchange, Inc.; Notice of
Designation of a Longer Period for Commission Action on Proceedings To
Determine Whether To Approve or Disapprove a Proposed Rule Change To
Amend the Initial Period After Commencement of Trading of a Series of
ETF Shares on the Exchange as It Relates to the Holders of Record and/
or Beneficial Holders, as Provided in Exchange Rule 14.11(l)
February 13, 2024.
On August 14, 2023, Cboe BZX Exchange, Inc. (``Exchange'' or
``BZX'') 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 the initial period after commencement of
trading of a series of ETF Shares on the Exchange as it specifically
relates to holders of record and/or beneficial holders under BZX Rule
14.11(l). The proposed rule change was published for comment in the
Federal Register on September 1, 2023.\3\ On September 25, 2023,
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
November 14, 2023, the Commission instituted proceedings pursuant to
Section 19(b)(2)(B) of the Act \6\ to determine whether to approve or
disapprove the proposed rule change.\7\

\5\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 98497 (September 25,

change. The Commission may extend the period for issuing an order

approving or disapproving the proposed rule change, however, by not
more than 60 days if the Commission determines that a longer period is
appropriate and publishes the reasons for such determination. The
proposed rule change was published for notice and comment in the
Federal Register on September 1, 2023.\9\ February 28, 2024 is 180 days

rule change. Accordingly, the Commission, pursuant to Section 19(b)(2)
of the Act,\10\ designates April 28, 2024 as the date by which the
Commission shall either approve or disapprove the proposed rule change
