Self-Regulatory Organizations; Investors Exchange LLC; Notice of 
Designation of a Longer Period for Commission Action on a Proposed Rule 
Change To Adopt Rules To Govern the Trading of Options on the Exchange 
for a New Facility Called IEX Options

March 6, 2025.
    On January 10, 2025, the Investors Exchange LLC (``IEX'' or 
``Exchange'') 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 adopt rules to govern the trading of options on 
IEX Options LLC, a facility of the Exchange that will be established in 
a separate rule filing. The proposed rule change was published for 
comment in the Federal Register on January 21, 2025.\3\ The Commission 
has received comments on the proposed rule change.\4\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(1).
    \2\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4.
    \3\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 102190 (Jan. 14, 
2025), 90 FR 7205.
    \4\ Comments on the proposed rule change are available at 
<a href="https://www.sec.gov/comments/sr-iex-2025-02/sriex202502.htm">https://www.sec.gov/comments/sr-iex-2025-02/sriex202502.htm</a>.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    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 as the Commission may designate 
if it finds such longer period to be appropriate and publishes its 
reasons for so finding, or 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 March 7, 2025. The Commission is extending this 45-day time period.

    The Commission finds it appropriate to designate a longer period 
within which to take action on the proposed rule change so that it has 
sufficient time to consider the proposed rule change and the comments 
received. Accordingly, the Commission, pursuant to Section 19(b)(2) of 
the Act,\6\ designates April 21, 2025, as the date by which the 
Commission shall either approve or disapprove, or institute proceedings 
to determine whether to disapprove, the proposed rule change (File No. 
SR-IEX-2025-02).
