On December 9, 2024, the Commission published notice of the proposed rule change, as modified by Amendment No. 1, and issued an order instituting proceedings under Section 19(b)(2) of the Exchange Act? 6 to determine whether to approve or disapprove the proposed rule change, as modified by Amendment No. 1. 7 The Commission has received no comment letters on the proposed rule change, as modified by Amendment No. 1.
