remove the Exchange's quote mitigation plan as provided by Commentary

    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 for this filing is December 5, 2014. The Commission is

    The Commission finds it appropriate to designate a longer period 
within which to take action on the proposed rule change so that it has 
sufficient time to consider this proposed rule change. The proposed 
rule change, if approved, would remove the Exchange's quote mitigation 
plan as provided by Commentary .03 to NYSE Arca Rule 6.86.
    Accordingly, the Commission, pursuant to Section 19(b)(2) of the 
Act,\5\ designates January 19, 2015, 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 No. SR-NYSEArca-2014-117).
