    July 31, 2006 Nancy M. Morris, Esq. Secretary US Securities and Exchange Commission 100 F Street, NE Washington, DC 20549 RE: Request for Relief from § 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Dear Ms. Morris: On January 13, 2006, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC” or “Commission”) approved the application of The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq Exchange”), a subsidiary of The Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc. (“Nasdaq”), to register under Section 6 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Act” or “Exchange Act”) as a national securities exchange.1 Nasdaq’s transition of its listing and trading activities to the Nasdaq Exchange will further Congress’s instruction to promote “fair competition . between exchange markets.”2 Absent the relief requested herein, however, Nasdaq’s transition to a national securities exchange would require approximately 3,200 Nasdaq Global Market3 and Capital Market issuers with securities registered pursuant to the Act, or exempt from registration under Section 12(g) of the Act,4 to file registration statements5 to register those securities under Section 12(b) of the Act.6 1 Securities Exchange Act Release No. 53128 (January 13, 2006), 71 FR 3550 (January 23, 2006) (the “Exchange Approval Order”). 2 Exchange Act Section 11A(a)(1)(C)(ii). 3 Effective July 1, 2006, Nasdaq renamed the Nasdaq National Market as the Nasdaq Global Market and created a new segment within the Global Market called the Global Select Market. References to the Nasdaq Global Market include those securities listed on the Nasdaq Global Market and the Nasdaq Global Select Market. See Securities Exchange Act Release No.
