    Section 19(b)(2) of the Act \6\ 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,

    The Commission is extending the 45-day time period for Commission 
action on the proposed rule change. The Commission finds that it is 
appropriate to designate a longer period within which to take action on 
the proposed rule change so that it has sufficient time to consider the 
Exchange's proposal, as described above, and to consider the comment 
letters that have been submitted in connection with the proposed rule 
change.
    Accordingly, pursuant to Section 19(b)(2) of the Act,\7\ the 
Commission designates August 21, 2011 as the date by which the 
Commission should either approve or disapprove, or institute 
proceedings to determine whether to disapprove, the proposed rule 
change (File Number SR-NYSE-2011-20).
