original filing in its entirety, is available at https://www.sec.gov/comments/sr-batsbzx-2017-14/batsbzx201714-1692102-149689.pdf. Because Amendment No. 3 does not materially alter the

if it finds such longer period to be appropriate and publishes its 
reasons for so finding, or as to which the self-regulatory organization 
consents, the Commission shall either approve the proposed rule change, 
disapprove the proposed rule change, or institute proceedings to 
determine whether the proposed rule change should be disapproved. The

proceedings to determine whether to disapprove, the proposed rule 
change (File No. SR-BatsBZX-2017-14), as modified by Amendment Nos. 3
