February 1, 2019.
    On July 18, 2018, NYSE Arca, Inc. filed with the Securities and

published for comment in the Federal Register on August 7, 2018.\3\ On 
September 19, 2018, pursuant to Section 19(b)(2) of the Act,\4\ the 
Commission designated a longer period within which to approve the 
proposed rule change, disapprove the proposed rule change, or institute 
proceedings to determine whether to approve or disapprove the proposed 
rule change.\5\ On November 1, 2018, the Commission issued an order 
instituting proceedings pursuant to Section 19(b)(2)(B) of the Act \6\ 
to determine whether to approve or disapprove the proposed rule 
change.\7\ The Commission has received no comment letters on the 
proposed rule change.

    Section 19(b)(2) of the Act \8\ 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. In this 
case, the proposed rule change was published for notice and comment in 
the Federal Register on August 7, 2018. February 3, 2019, is 180 days 
from that date, and April 4, 2019, is 240 days from that date.

    The Commission finds it appropriate to designate a longer period 
within which to issue an order approving or disapproving the proposed 
rule change so that it has sufficient time to consider the proposed 
rule change. Accordingly, the Commission, pursuant to Section 19(b)(2) 
of the Act,\9\ designates April 4, 2019, as the date by which the 
Commission shall either approve or disapprove the proposed rule change 
(File No. SR-NYSEArca-2018-54).
