and Rule 19b-4 thereunder,\2\ a proposed rule change to adopt Nasdaq 
Rule 5703 to permit the generic listing and trading of Multi-Class

    Section 19(b)(2) of the Act \4\ 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

determine whether the proposed rule change should be disapproved. The
