Determine Whether To Approve or Disapprove a Proposed Rule Change, as
Modified by Amendment No. 1, Regarding the Continued Listing and
Trading of Shares of the Natixis Loomis Sayles Short Duration Income
ETF
October 22, 2018.
On April 16, 2018, NYSE Arca, Inc. (``NYSE Arca'' or ``Exchange'')
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (``Commission''),
pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
(``Act'') \1\ and Rule 19b-4 thereunder,\2\ a proposed rule change to
continue listing and trading shares of the Natixis Loomis Sayles Short
Duration Income ETF under NYSE Arca Rule 8.600-E, Managed Fund
Shares.\3\ The proposed rule change was published for comment in the
Federal Register on May 3, 2018.\4\ On June 5, 2018, pursuant to
Section 19(b)(2) of the Act,\5\ the Commission designated August 1,
2018 as the date by which to approve the proposed rule change,
disapprove the proposed rule change, or institute proceedings to
determine whether to disapprove the proposed rule change.\6\ On June 6,
2018, the Exchange filed Amendment No. 1 to the proposed rule
change.\7\ On July 27, 2018, the Commission instituted proceedings to
determine whether to approve or disapprove the proposed rule change.\8\
The Commission has received no comments on the proposed rule change.

\2\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4.
\3\ Currently, the Exchange lists and trades the shares pursuant
to NYSE Arca Rule 8.600-E. As discussed in Amendment No. 1, infra
note 7, the Exchange submitted this proposed rule change to permit
the fund's portfolio to deviate from two of the ``generic'' listing
requirements applicable to Managed Fund Shares.

2018), 83 FR 19578.

\6\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 83385, 83 FR 27034
(June 11, 2018).
\7\ Amendment No. 1, which amended and replaced the proposed
rule change in its entirety, is available at: https://www.sec.gov/comments/sr-nysearca-2018-25/nysearca201825-3795048-162717.pdf.

Section 19(b)(2) of the Act \9\ provides that, after initiating
disapproval proceedings, the Commission shall issue an order approving
or disapproving the proposed rule change not later than 180 days after
the date of publication of notice of filing of the proposed rule
change. The Commission may extend the period for issuing an order
approving or disapproving the proposed rule change, however, by not
more than 60 days if the Commission determines that a longer period is
appropriate and publishes the reasons for such determination. The
proposed rule change was published for notice and comment in the
Federal Register on May 3, 2018. October 30, 2018 is 180 days from that
date, and December 29, 2018 is 240 days from that date.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Commission finds it appropriate to designate a longer period
within which to issue an order approving or
[[Page 54154]]
disapproving the proposed rule change so that it has sufficient time to
consider this proposed rule change, as modified by Amendment No. 1.
Accordingly, the Commission, pursuant to Section 19(b)(2) of the
Act,\10\ designates December 29, 2018 as the date by which the
Commission shall either approve or disapprove the proposed rule change
(File No. SR-NYSEArca-2018-25), as modified by Amendment No. 1.
