Effective Monday, October 5, 2009, the NYSE is amending its Rule 128, entitled Clearly Erroneous Executions. The amended rule is the result of a coordinated effort among all national securities exchanges to improve the consistency of clearly erroneous execution rules at such exchanges and to add more objective criteria to be used in handling clearly erroneous executions. NYSE AMEX is adopting the same rule. Key components of the Rule are highlighted in the attached Information Memo.
