    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

    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.
    Accordingly, pursuant to Section 19(b)(2) of the Act,\5\ the 
Commission designates September 3, 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 No. 
SR-MRX-2017-02).
