SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION
[Release No. 34-104742; File No. 4-533]
Joint Industry Plan; Notice of Filing and Immediate Effectiveness
of Amendment to the National Market System Plan for the Selection and
Reservation of Securities Symbols To Add Texas Stock Exchange LLC as a
Party Thereto
January 29, 2026.
Pursuant to Section 11A(a)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934 (``Act'') \1\ and Rule 608 thereunder,\2\ notice is hereby given
that on January 23, 2026, Texas Stock Exchange LLC (``TXSE'' or the
``Exchange'') filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(``Commission'') an amendment to the National Market System Plan for
the Selection and Reservation of Securities Symbols (``Symbology Plan''
or ``Plan'').\3\ The amendment proposes to add TXSE as a party to the
Symbology Plan. The Commission is publishing this notice to solicit
comments on the proposed amendment from interested persons.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ 15 U.S.C. 78k-1(a)(3).
\2\ 17 CFR 242.608.
\3\ The Commission approved the Symbology Plan on November 6,
2008. See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 58904, 73 FR 67218
(November 13, 2008) (File No. 4-533).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
I. Description and Purpose of the Amendment
The current parties to the Symbology Plan are 24X National Exchange
LLC, BOX Exchange, LLC, Nasdaq BX, Inc., Cboe BZX Exchange, Inc., Cboe
EDGA Exchange, Inc., Cboe EDGX Exchange, Inc., Cboe Exchange, Inc.,
NYSE Texas, Inc, Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc.,
Investors Exchange, LLC, Long-Term Stock Exchange, Inc., MEMX LLC,
Miami International Securities Exchange, LLC, MIAX PEARL, LLC, Nasdaq
ISE, LLC, The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC, New York Stock Exchange LLC,
NYSE American LLC, NYSE National, Inc., NYSE Arca, Inc., and Nasdaq
PHLX LLC. The proposed amendment to the Symbology Plan would add TXSE
as a party to the Symbology Plan. A self-regulatory organization
(``SRO'') may become a party to the Symbology Plan if it satisfies the
requirements of Section I(c) of the Plan. Specifically, an SRO may
become a party to the Symbology Plan if: (i) it maintains a market for
the listing or trading of Plan Securities \4\ in accordance with rules
approved by the Commission; (ii) it signs a current copy of the Plan;
and (iii) becomes a party to any contract required pursuant to Section
III of the Plan with the Processor (as such term is defined in the
Plan).\5\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\4\ ``Plan Securities'' are defined in the Symbology Plan as
securities that: (i) are NMS securities as currently defined in Rule
600(a)(46) under the Act; and (ii) any other equity securities
quoted, traded and/or trade reported through an SRO facility.
\5\ Sections I(c) and V(a) of the Plan.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Exchange has submitted a signed copy of the Symbology Plan to
the Commission in accordance with the requirement set forth in the
Symbology Plan regarding new parties to the plan. Additionally, the
Exchange has represented that it maintains a market for the listing or
trading of Plan Securities. Finally, the Exchange has represented that
it has become a party to any contract with the Processor.
II. Effectiveness of the Proposed Symbology Plan Amendment
The foregoing proposed Symbology Plan amendment has become
effective
[[Page 4980]]
pursuant to Rule 608(b)(3)(iii) \6\ because it involves solely
technical or ministerial matters. At any time within sixty days of the
filing of the amendment, the Commission may summarily abrogate the
amendment and require that it be refiled pursuant to paragraph (a)(1)
of Rule 608,\7\ if it appears to the Commission that such action is
necessary or appropriate in the public interest, for the protection of
investors or the maintenance of fair and orderly markets, to remove
impediments to, and perfect the mechanisms of, a national market system
or otherwise in furtherance of the purposes of the Act.
