    On March 4, 2024, 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 disapprove the proposed rule

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

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

rule change. Accordingly, the Commission, pursuant to Section 19(b)(2) 
of the Act,\9\ designates September 22, 2024 as the date by which the 
Commission shall either approve or disapprove the proposed rule change 
(File No. SR-NYSEARCA-2024-05).
