    Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) \1\ of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934 (the ``Act'') \2\ and Rule 19b-4 thereunder,\3\ notice is hereby
given that on April 6, 2020, New York Stock Exchange LLC (``NYSE'' or
the ``Exchange'') filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(the ``Commission'') the proposed rule change as described in Items I,
II, and III 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 amend Rule 7.37 to specify the Exchange's
source of data feeds from the Long-Term Stock Exchange, Inc. (``LTSE'')
for purposes of order handling, order execution, order routing, and
regulatory compliance. The proposed rule change is available on the
Exchange's website 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 the
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change

1. Purpose
    The Exchange proposes to update and amend the use of data feeds
table in Rule 7.37, which sets forth on a market-by-market basis the
specific securities information processor (``SIP'') and proprietary
data feeds that the Exchange utilizes for the handling, execution, and
routing of orders, and for performing the regulatory compliance checks
related to each of those functions. Specifically, the Exchange proposes
to amend the table in Rule 7.37(e) to specify that, with respect to the
LTSE, the Exchange will receive the SIP feed as its primary source of
data for order handling, order execution, order routing, and regulatory
compliance. The Exchange will not have a secondary source for data from
LTSE.
    The Exchange proposes that this proposed rule change would be
operative on the day that LTSE launches operations as an equities
exchange, which is currently scheduled for May 15, 2020.\4\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ On March 25, 2020, LTSE announced that it would begin
phasing in securities on its production system on May 15, 2020. See
LTSE Market Announcement: MA-202-008, available here: https://longtermstockexchange.com/static/MA-2020-008-dfec5067f88285a0f563a894451b1f22.pdf.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

2. Statutory Basis
    The proposed rule change is consistent with Section 6(b) of the
Act,\5\ in general, and furthers the objectives of Section 6(b)(5),\6\
in particular, because it is designed to prevent fraudulent and
manipulative acts and practices, to promote just and equitable
principles of trade, to foster cooperation and coordination with
persons engaged in facilitating transactions in securities, to remove
impediments to, and perfect the mechanism of, a free and open market
and a national market system and, in general, to protect investors and
the public interest. The Exchange believes its proposal to amend the
table in Rule 7.37(e) to include the data feed source for the LTSE will
ensure that Rule 7.37 correctly identifies and publicly states on a
market-by-market basis all of the specific SIP and proprietary data
feeds that the Exchange utilizes for the handling, execution, and
routing of orders, and for performing the regulatory compliance checks
for each of those functions. The proposed rule change also removes
impediments to and perfects the mechanism of a free and open market and
protects investors

and the public interest by providing additional specificity, clarity,
and transparency in the Exchange's rules.

    \6\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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 provide the
public and market participants with up-to-date information about the
data feeds the Exchange will use for the handling, execution, and
routing of orders, as well as for regulatory compliance.

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 \7\ and Rule 19b-4(f)(6) thereunder.\8\
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.\9\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A)(iii).
    \8\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6).
    \9\ Id. In addition, Rule 19b-4(f)(6)(iii) requires a self-
regulatory organization to give the Commission written notice of its
intent to file the proposed rule change, along with a brief
description and text of the proposed rule change, at least five
business days prior to the date of filing of the proposed rule
change, or such shorter time as designated by the Commission. The
Exchange has satisfied this requirement.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    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) \10\ of the Act to determine whether the proposed
rule change should be approved or disapproved.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \10\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(2)(B).
