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 the Notice of filing of the proposed rule 
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 comment in the Federal Register 
on January 17, 2024.\10\ The 180th day after publication of the Notice 
is July 15, 2024. The Commission is extending the time period for

Commission, pursuant to Section 19(b)(2) of the Act,\11\ designates
