I. Extensions to Day 90

    On the dates listed in Table 1 below, the following self-regulatory 
organizations (collectively, the ``SROs'') 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\ proposed rule changes to amend their rules pertaining to 
various matters described in Table 1. Some of the proposed rule changes 
were published for comment in the Federal Register on the dates 
indicated below. Section 19(b)(2) of the Act \3\ 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.

    \2\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4.
    \3\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(2).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The filings identified in Table 1 below have as their 45th day 
after publication of the notice (``Day 45'') a date that falls within 
the month of November 2025. The Commission is extending these 45-day 
time periods. The Commission finds it appropriate to designate a longer 
period within which to take action on the proposed rule changes so that 
it has sufficient time to consider the proposed rule changes and the 
issues raised therein.\4\ Accordingly, pursuant to Section 19(b)(2) of 
the Act,\5\ the Commission designates the dates listed in Table 1 below 
(``Day 90'') as the dates by which the Commission shall either approve 
or disapprove, or institute proceedings to determine whether to 
disapprove, the respective filings.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ Due to a lapse in appropriations, the Commission closed on 
October 1, 2025 and remains closed as of the date of this release. 
See SEC Operational Status, available at <a href="https://www.sec.gov">https://www.sec.gov</a> 
(stating ``[d]ue to a lapse in appropriations, the SEC is currently 
operating in accordance with the agency's plan for operating during 
a shutdown. Effective Wednesday, October 1, 2025 and until further 
notice, the agency will have a very limited number of staff members 
available.'') (last accessed Oct. 23, 2025).

\1\ Filed with the Commission on September 30, 2025, but not sent to the Federal Register for publication before
  the Commission closed on October 1. Pursuant to Section 19(b)(2)(E) of the Act, if, after an SRO files a
  proposed rule change and posts it on its publicly accessible website, the Commission does not send the notice
  of the proposal to the Federal Register within 15 days of the date on which such website publication is made,
  then the date of publication of the proposal shall be deemed to be the date on which such website publication
  was made. See 15 U.S.C. 78(b)(2)(E).

II. Extensions to Day 240

    The Commission initiated proceedings under Section 19(b)(2)(B) of 
the Act \6\ by issuing orders instituting proceedings (``OIPs'') on 
certain proposed rule changes identified below in Table 2, to determine 
whether to approve or disapprove them. Section 19(b)(2) of the Act \7\ 
provides that, after initiating 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 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.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(2)(B).
    \7\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(2).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The filings identified in Table 2 below have as their 180th day 
after publication of the notice (``Day 180'') a date that falls within 
the month of November 2025. The Commission is extending consideration 
of each of these proceedings for an additional 60 days. The Commission 
finds it appropriate to designate a longer period within which to issue 
an order approving or disapproving each proposed rule change so that it 
has sufficient time to consider each proposed rule change and the 
issues raised therein.\8\ Accordingly, pursuant to Section 19(b)(2) of 
the Act,\9\ the Commission designates the dates listed in Table 2 below 
(``Day 240'') as the dates by which the Commission shall either approve 
or disapprove the filings.

status).
