within such longer period up to 90 days as the Commission may designate

    The Commission is extending the 45-day time period for Commission

appropriate to designate a longer period within which to take action on 
the proposed rule change so that it has sufficient time to consider and 
take action on the proposed rule change, as modified by Amendment No. 
1. Accordingly, pursuant to Section 19(b)(2)(A)(ii)(I) of the Act,\5\ 
the Commission designates March 2, 2017, 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-CBOE-2016-080), as modified by Amendment No. 1.
