    On January 6, 2026, Cboe Exchange, Inc. 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 amend Rules 4.13 and 5.1 to 
permit options on the Dow Jones Industrial Average index to be P.M.-
settled. The proposed rule change was published for comment in the 
Federal Register on January 26, 2026.\3\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(1).
    \2\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4.

the proposed rule change.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    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 
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 12, 2026. The Commission is extending this 45-day time period.

sufficient time to consider the proposed rule change and the issues 
raised therein. Accordingly, the Commission, pursuant to Section 
19(b)(2) of the Act,\5\ designates April 26, 2026, 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-CBOE-2026-005).
