2013-15348. Self-Regulatory Organizations; NYSE MKT LLC; Notice of Filing and Immediate Effectiveness of Proposed Rule Change Replacing References to “Principle Executive” With References to “Principal Executive” in the Exchange's Rules

June 21, 2013.

Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Act”) and Rule 19b-4 thereunder, notice is hereby given that on June 20, 2013, NYSE MKT LLC (the “Exchange” or “NYSE MKT”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) the proposed rule change as described in Items I and II below, which Items have been prepared by the self-regulatory organization. The Commission is publishing this notice to solicit comments on the proposed rule change from interested persons.

I. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Terms of Substance of the Proposed Rule Change

The Exchange proposes to replace references to “principle executive” with references to “principal executive” in the Exchange's rules. The text of the proposed rule change is available on the Exchange's Web site at www.nyse.com,, at the principal office of the Exchange, and at the Commission's Public Reference Room.

II. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Purpose of, and Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change

In its filing with the Commission, the self-regulatory organization included statements concerning the purpose of, and basis for, the proposed rule change and discussed any comments it received on the proposed rule change. The text of those statements may be examined at the places specified in Item IV below. The Exchange has prepared summaries, set forth in sections A, B, and C below, of the most significant parts of such statements.

A. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Purpose of, and Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change

1. Purpose

The Exchange proposes to replace references to “principle executive” with references to “principal executive” in the Exchange's rules.

Currently, certain equities rules (Rules 98—Equities, 104T—Equities, 105—Equities, 113—Equities, 122—Equities, 123—Equities, 309—Equities, 344—Equities) and certain disciplinary rules applicable to the Exchange's equities and options markets (Rules 475, 476, and 477 in Section 9A of the Office Rules) contain references to “principle executive.” The Exchange proposes to replace these references with references to “principal executive.” The term “principal executive” appears in over 40 other Exchange rules, and references to “principle executive” are simply misspellings. In addition, certain of the Exchange's rules are based on the rules of its affiliate, the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”), and the NYSE uses the term “principal executive” exclusively. The purpose of the proposal is to make the terminology in the Exchange's rules more consistent.

2. Statutory Basis

The Exchange believes that the proposed rule change is consistent with Section 6(b) of the Act,^[1] in general, and furthers the objectives of Section 6(b)(5) of the Act,^[2] in particular, because it promotes just and equitable principles of trade, removes impediments to and perfects the mechanism of a free and open market and a national market system, and, in general, helps to protect investors and the public interest by implementing consistent terminology throughout the Exchange's rules. The Exchange further believes that the proposal removes impediments to and perfects the mechanism of a free and open market by ensuring that member organizations, regulators, and the public can more easily understand and navigate the Exchange's rules.

B. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Burden on Competition

The Exchange does not believe that the proposed rule change will impose any burden on competition that is not necessary or appropriate in furtherance of the purposes of the Act. The proposed change is not designed to address any competitive issue but rather would implement consistent terminology throughout the Exchange's rules, thereby reducing confusion, and making the Exchange's rules easier to understand and navigate.

C. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Comments on the Proposed Rule Change Received From Members, Participants, or Others

No written comments were solicited or received with respect to the proposed rule change.

III. Date of Effectiveness of the Proposed Rule Change and Timing for Commission Action

The Exchange has filed the proposed rule change pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A)(iii) of the Act ^[3] and Rule 19b-4(f)(6) thereunder.^[4] Because the proposed rule change does not: (i) Significantly affect the protection of investors or the public interest; (ii) impose any significant burden on competition; and (iii) become operative prior to 30 days from the date on which it was filed, or such shorter time as the Commission may designate, if consistent with the protection of investors and the public interest, the proposed rule change has become effective pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A) of the Act and Rule 19b-4(f)(6)(iii) thereunder.

A proposed rule change filed under Rule 19b-4(f)(6) ^[5] normally does not become operative prior to 30 days after the date of the filing. However, pursuant to Rule 19b-4(f)(6)(iii),^[6] the Commission may designate a shorter time if such action is consistent with the protection of investors and the public interest. The Exchange has asked the Commission to waive the 30-day operative delay so that the proposal may become operative immediately upon filing. The Commission believes that waiving the 30-day operative delay is consistent with the protection of investors and the public interest. Granting the waiver allows the Exchange to correct a typographical error immediately, thereby eliminating any confusion generated by the mistake without delay. Therefore, the Commission hereby waives the 30-day operative delay and designates the proposal operative upon filing.^[7]

At any time within 60 days of the filing of such proposed rule change, the Commission summarily may temporarily suspend such rule change if it appears to the Commission that such action is necessary or appropriate in the public interest, for the protection of investors, or otherwise in furtherance of the purposes of the Act. If the Commission takes such action, the Commission shall institute proceedings under Section 19(b)(2)(B) ^[8] of the Act to determine whether the proposed rule change should be approved or disapproved.
