    On November 2, 2017, Virtu Financial Inc. and Virtu Americas LLC 
(collectively ``Virtu'') filed an Unopposed Motion to Substitute Virtu 
Financial Inc. and Virtu Americas LLC for Petitioner KCG Holdings, Inc. 
(``KCG'') pursuant to Rules 102 and 200(d) of the Commission Rules of 
Practice.\1\ In its motion, Virtu represents that it acquired KCG 
earlier this year and represents the successor in interest to KCG and 
its subsidiary. Virtu represents that it intends to participate in the 
matter pertaining to SR-OCC-2015-02 moving forward. Virtu also 
represents that the motion is unopposed. The Commission believes that 
it is appropriate to grant the motion.

    On November 7, 2017, Petitioners Susquehanna International Group, 
LLP, BOX Options Exchange, LLC, MIAX International Securities Exchange, 
LLC, and Virtu, (collectively ``Petitioners'') filed an Unopposed

[[Page 54440]]

of Statements on Review (``Corrected Order'').\3\ The Petitioners 
represent that the motion is unopposed by the Options Clearing 
Corporation (``OCC''). The Petitioners also represent that they have 
entered into a confidentiality agreement with OCC on November 1, 2017 
to obtain access to the confidential filings that OCC submitted to the 
Commission on October 13, 2017 to support OCC's proposed rule change. 
The Petitioners request an extension of time so that they may review 
these confidential materials and provide the Commission with informed 
and deliberate comments. The Petitioners further represent that 
extending the time for comment would allow them the same amount of 
time, thirty days, to review the materials as was contemplated by the 
Corrected Order. Given the unopposed nature of the request and the 
surrounding facts regarding this matter, the Commission believes that 
granting the extension will serve the interests of justice.
