futures products may register as a national securities exchange solely
for the purposes of trading security futures products by filing a
written notice with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(``Commission'') if: (1) the exchange is a board of trade, as that term
is defined by the Commodity Exchange Act (``CEA''),\2\ that has been
designated a contract market by the Commodity Futures Trading
Commission (``CFTC'') and such designation is not suspended by order of
the CFTC; and (2) such exchange does not serve as a market place for
transactions in securities other than security futures products or
futures on exempted securities or groups or indexes of securities or
options thereon that have been authorized under Section 2(a)(1)(C) of
the CEA.\3\ Rule 6a-4 under the Exchange Act \4\ requires that such an
exchange submit written notice of registration to the Commission on
Form 1-N.\5\ Under Exchange Act Section 6(g)(2)(B), an exchange's
registration as a national securities exchange becomes effective
contemporaneously with the submission of the written notice on Form 1-
N.\6\
