the publication of notice of the filing of a proposed rule change, or 
within such longer period up to 90 days as the Commission may designate

    The Commission is extending the 45-day time period for Commission 
action on the proposed rule change. The Commission finds that it is 
appropriate to designate a longer period within which to take action on 
the proposed rule change so that it has sufficient time to consider the 
proposed rule change, as modified by Amendment No. 1. Accordingly, 
pursuant to Section 19(b)(2) of the Act,\6\ the Commission designates 
October 18, 2019, as the date by which the Commission shall either 
approve or disapprove, or institute proceedings to determine whether to 
disapprove, the proposed rule change (File No. SR-CBOE-2019-049), as 
modified by Amendment No. 1.
