Self-Regulatory Organizations; NYSE Arca, Inc.; Notice of Filing and Order Granting Accelerated Approval of Proposed Rule Change and Amendment Nos. 1 and 2 Relating to Trading Claymore MACROshares Oil Up Tradeable Shares and Claymore MACROshares Oil Down Tradeable Shares Pursuant to Unlisted Trading Privileges

Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Act”), and Rule 19b-4 thereunder, notice is hereby given that on October 10, 2006, NYSE Arca, Inc. (the “Exchange”), through its wholly owned subsidiary NYSE Arca Equities, Inc. (“NYSE Arca Equities”), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) the proposed rule change as described in Items I and II below, which Items have been substantially prepared by the Exchange. On November 9, 2006, the Exchange filed Amendment No. 1 to the proposed rule change. The Exchange filed Amendment No. 2 to the proposed rule change on December 12, 2006. The Commission is publishing this notice and order to solicit comment on the proposed rule change, as amended, from interested persons and to approve the proposed rule change and Amendment Nos. 1 and 2 thereto on an accelerated basis.

I. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Terms of Substance of the Proposed Rule Change

The Exchange, through its wholly-owned subsidiary NYSE Arca Equities, proposes to amend its rules governing NYSE Arca, LLC (also referred to as the “NYSE Arca Marketplace”), the equities trading facility of NYSE Arca Equities. The Exchange proposes new NYSE Arca Equities Rule 8.400 to permit trading, either by listing or pursuant to unlisted trading privileges (“UTP”), of “Paired Trust Shares.” Pursuant to this proposed new rule, the Exchange initially proposes to trade, pursuant to UTP: (1) Claymore MACROshares Oil Up Tradeable Shares (the “Up-MACRO Tradeable Shares”) and (2) Claymore MACROshares Oil Down Tradeable Shares (the “Down-MACRO Tradeable Shares” and together with the Up-MACRO Tradeable Shares, the “MACRO Tradeable Shares”).

The MACRO Tradeable Shares are issued by and represent an undivided beneficial interest in (1) the Claymore MACROshares Oil Up Tradeable Trust (the “Up-MACRO Tradeable Trust”) and (2) the Claymore MACROshares Oil Down Tradeable Trust (the “Down-MACRO Tradeable Trust”), respectively. The assets of these trusts (collectively, the “MACRO Tradeable Trusts”) each will consist exclusively of a majority of the Claymore MACROshares Oil Up Holding Shares (“Up-MACRO Holding Shares”) issued by the Claymore MACROshares Oil Up Holding Trust (“Up-MACRO Holding Trust”) and the Claymore MACROshares Oil Down Holding Shares (“Down-MACRO Holding Shares”) issued by the Claymore MACROshares Oil Down Holding Trust (“Down-MACRO Holding Trust”).

The text of the proposed rule change is available on the Exchange's Web site at http://www.nysearca.com,, at the principal office of the Exchange and at the Commission's Public Reference Room.

II. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Purpose of, and Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change

In its filing with the Commission, the Exchange included statements concerning the purpose of, and basis for, the proposed rule change and discussed any comments it received on the proposed rule change. The text of these statements may be examined at the places specified in Item III below. The Exchange has prepared summaries, set forth in Sections (A), (B), and (C) below, of the most significant aspects of such statements.

A. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Purpose of, and Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change

(1) Purpose

The Exchange proposes to add new NYSE Arca Equities Rule 8.400 to permit trading, either by listing or pursuant to UTP, of securities issued by a pair of related trusts and based on an index or other numerical variable (“Reference Price”) whose value reflects the value of assets, prices or other economic interests. When the Exchange is the listing market for Paired Trust Shares, the Paired Trust Shares will be subject to the continued listing and trading criteria under proposed new NYSE Arca Rule 8.400(d). For each separate and discrete Reference Price that may underlie Paired Trust Shares, the Exchange will submit a filing pursuant to Section 19(b) of the Act subject to Commission review and approval. The Exchange may eventually seek to revise the proposed listing criteria and trading rules to permit the listing and trading of Paired Trust Shares pursuant to Rule 19b-4(e) under the Act.

Pursuant to proposed NYSE Arca Equities Rule 8.400, the Exchange proposes to trade pursuant to UTP the MACRO Tradeable Shares. The Commission previously approved the listing and trading of the MACRO Tradeable Shares on the American Stock Exchange LLC (“Amex”).

The Exchange deems the MACRO Tradeable Shares to be equity securities, thus rendering trading in the MACRO Tradeable Shares subject to the Exchange's existing rules governing the trading of equity securities. The MACRO Tradeable Shares will trade on the NYSE Arca Marketplace from 9:30 a.m. until 4:15 p.m. (New York time).

Quotations for and last sale information regarding the MACRO Tradeable Shares are disseminated through the Consolidated Tape System (“CTS”). During each trading day, the Amex, acting as the calculation agent, will publish to the CTS, at least every 15 seconds during the entire time that the MACRO Tradeable Shares trade on the Amex (normally 9:30 a.m. to 4:15 p.m. each Price Determination Day ), an indicative value, referred to as an Indicative Intraday Value (“IIV”), representing the estimated underlying value per share of both the Up-MACRO Tradeable Shares and the Down-MACRO Tradeable Shares. The Amex will also publish these values on its Web site. To enable this calculation, the Amex will receive real time price data from the NYMEX for the light sweet crude oil futures contract that trades on the NYMEX from two major market data vendors, from the opening of trading of the light sweet crude oil futures contract on NYMEX at 10 a.m. to the close of trading of the MACRO Tradeable Shares on the Amex at 4:15 p.m. (New York City time). In addition, the closing price of the MACRO Tradeable Shares on the NYSE Arca Marketplace will be available on the Exchange's Web site.

Because the NYMEX market for the light sweet crude oil futures contract will be closed for portions of the period from 9:30 a.m. to 4:15 p.m. ET, the IIV calculated values will become fixed at such time as the NYMEX contract stops trading during this time. From 9:30 a.m. to 4:15 p.m. ET, however, if trading in the NYMEX light sweet crude oil futures contract is occurring on the CME Globex electronic trading platform, then those trades will be used to update IIV values.

The administrative agent, Claymore Securities, will maintain a Web site ( http://www.ClaymoreMacroShares.com ) that is publicly accessible at no charge and will contain the following information posted by the trustee on each Price Determination Day:

• The daily Price Level Percentage Change of the Applicable Reference Price of Crude Oil;
• The daily underlying value of the Up-MACRO Holding Trust and the per share underlying value of the Up-MACRO Holding Shares and the Up-MACRO Tradeable Shares; and

• The daily underlying value of the Down-MACRO Holding Trust and the per share underlying value of the Down-MACRO Holding Shares and the Down-MACRO Tradeable Shares.

Pricing and other information for NYMEX light sweet crude oil futures contracts, including those designated to be the Applicable Reference Price, is available through major market data vendors such as Reuters and Bloomberg.

Unless exemptive or no-action relief is available, the MACRO Tradeable Shares will be subject to the short sale rule, Rule 10a-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Act”). If exemptive or no-action relief is provided, the Exchange will issue a notice detailing the terms of the exemption or relief.

Prior to the commencement of trading, the Exchange will inform its ETP Holders in an Information Bulletin of the special characteristics and risks associated with trading the MACRO Tradeable Shares. Specifically, the Information Bulletin will discuss the following: (1) What the MACRO Tradeable Shares are; (2) how they are created and exchanged for MACRO Holding Shares by Authorized Participants (and that MACRO Holding Shares are issuable and redeemable only in MACRO Units); (3) NYSE Arca Equities Rule 9.2(a), which imposes a duty of due diligence on its ETP Holders to learn the essential facts relating to every customer prior to trading the Shares; (4) dissemination of information regarding the underlying value of each paired MACRO Holding Trust and the share of that underlying value allocable to one Up-MACRO Holding Share, one Up-MACRO Tradeable Share, one Down-MACRO Holding Share and one Down-MACRO Tradeable Share; (5) the requirement that ETP Holders deliver a prospectus to investors purchasing newly issued MACRO Tradeable Shares prior to or concurrently with the confirmation of a transaction; and (6) trading information.

In addition, the Information Bulletin will reference that the MACRO Holding Trusts and the MACRO Tradeable Trusts are subject to various fees and expenses described in the Registration Statement. The Information Bulletin will also reference that the Commission has no jurisdiction over the trading of the NYMEX light sweet crude oil futures contract. The Information Bulletin will also discuss any exemptive, no-action and interpretive relief granted by the Commission from any rules under the Act.

The Exchange intends to utilize its existing surveillance procedures applicable to derivative products to monitor trading in the MACRO Tradeable Shares. The Exchange represents that these procedures are adequate to properly monitor Exchange trading of the MACRO Tradeable Shares and to deter and detect violations of Exchange rules.

2. Statutory Basis

The proposed rule change is consistent with Section 6(b) of the Act, in general, and furthers the objectives of Section 6(b)(5) in particular in that it is designed to prevent fraudulent and manipulative acts and practices, to promote just and equitable principles of trade, to foster cooperation and coordination with persons engaged in facilitating transactions in securities, and to remove impediments to and perfect the mechanism of a free and open market and a national market system.

In addition, the proposed rule change is consistent with Rule 12f-5 under the Act because it deems the MACRO Tradeable Shares to be equity securities, thus rendering the MACRO Tradeable Shares subject to the Exchange's rules governing the trading of equity securities.

B. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Burden on Competition

The Exchange does not believe that the proposed rule change will impose any burden on competition that is not necessary or appropriate in furtherance of the purposes of the Act.

C. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Comments on the Proposed Rule Change Received From Members, Participants or Others

Written comments on the proposed rule change were neither solicited nor received.

IV. Commission's Findings and Order Granting Accelerated Approval of the Proposed Rule Change

After careful review, the Commission finds that the proposed rule change is consistent with the requirements of the Act and the rules and regulations thereunder applicable to a national securities exchange. In particular, the Commission finds that the proposed rule change is consistent with Section 6(b)(5) of the Act, which requires that an exchange have rules designed, among other things, to promote just and equitable principles of trade, to remove impediments to and perfect the mechanism of a free and open market and a national market system, and in general to protect investors and the public interest.

In addition, the Commission finds that the proposal is consistent with Section 12(f) of the Act, which permits an exchange to trade, pursuant to UTP, a security that is listed and registered on another exchange. The Commission notes that it previously approved the listing and trading of the MACRO Tradeable Shares on Amex. The Commission also finds that the proposal is consistent with Rule 12f-5 under the Act, which provides that an exchange shall not extend UTP to a security unless the exchange has in effect a rule or rules providing for transactions in the class or type of security to which the exchange extends UTP. The Exchange has represented that it meets this requirement because it deems the MACRO Tradeable Shares to be equity securities, thus rendering trading in the MACRO Tradeable Shares subject to the Exchange's existing rules governing the trading of equity securities.

The Commission further believes that the proposal is consistent with Section 11A(a)(1)(C)(iii) of the Act, which sets forth Congress' finding that it is in the public interest and appropriate for the protection of investors and the maintenance of fair and orderly markets to assure the availability to brokers, dealers, and investors of information with respect to quotations for and transactions in securities.

A. Surveillance

The Commission notes that the Exchange has represented that its surveillance procedures are adequate to monitor trading in the Paired Trust Shares. The Exchange's Information Sharing Agreement with the NYMEX for the purpose of providing information in connection with trading in or related to futures contracts traded on the NYMEX creates the basis for the Exchange to monitor for fraudulent and manipulative practices in the trading of the Paired Trust Shares.

Moreover, adoption of proposed NYSE Arca Equities Rule 8.400(e) should facilitate surveillance because it will require ETP Holders acting as registered Market Makers in the Paired Trust Shares to provide the Exchange with information relating to trading in the asset, commodity or other economic interest underlying the Reference Price, options, related futures or options on futures, or any other related derivatives.

B. Dissemination of Information

Quotations for and last sale information regarding the MACRO Trust Shares are disseminated through the CTS. Furthermore, Amex will publish through the CTS and on its Web site the IIV, representing the estimated underlying value per share of both the UP-MACRO Tradeable Shares and the Down-MACRO Tradeable Shares every 15 seconds during the entire time between 9:30 a.m. to 4:15 p.m.

NYSE Arca Equities Rule 7.34 describes the situations when the Exchange will halt trading. In particular, NYSE Arca Equities Rule 7.34(a)(4)(B) requires the Exchange to immediately halt trading in the MACRO Tradeable Shares if the listing market halts trading because the IIV or the value of the applicable Index is not calculated or widely disseminated. In cases were the Exchange is acting as the listing market for a series of Paired Trust Shares, the Exchange will halt trading no later than the beginning of the trading day following the interruption if the interruption to the dissemination of the IIVs or the futures contract prices persists past the trading day in which it occurred. The Commission believes that these trading halt rules will help ensure that an appropriate level of transparency exists with respect to MACRO Tradeable Shares to allow for the maintenance of fair and orderly markets.

C. Listing and Trading

The Commission finds that the Exchange's proposed rules and procedures for the listing and trading of the Paired Trust Shares are consistent with the Act. The Paired Trust Shares will trade as equity securities subject to the Exchange's existing rules governing the trading of equity securities. The Commission finds that proposed NYSE Arca Equities Rule 8.400(e) establishing certain restrictions on ETP Holders acting as registered Market Makers in Paired Trust Shares is reasonably designed to address potential conflicts of interest in connection with ETP Holders acting as registered Market Makers in Paired Trust Shares.

The Commission believes that the listing and delisting criteria for the Paired Trust Shares should help to maintain a minimum level of liquidity and therefore minimize the potential for manipulation of the Paired Trust Shares. Additionally, the Commission finds that proposed NYSE Arca Equities Rule 8.400(e) is reasonably designed to help ensure that an ETP Holder acting as a Market Maker in Paired Trust Shares provide the Exchange with all the necessary information relating to their trading in the asset, commodity or other economic interest underlying the Reference Price, related options, related futures or options on futures, or any other related derivatives.

The Commission notes that, if the MACRO Tradeable Shares should be delisted by the listing exchange, the Exchange would no longer have authority to trade the MACRO Tradeable Shares pursuant to this approval order.

In support of this proposal, the Exchange has made the following representations:

1. The Exchange's surveillance procedures are adequate to properly monitor Exchange trading of the MACRO Tradeable Shares.

2. Prior to the commencement of trading, the Exchange will inform its ETP Holders in an Information Bulletin of the special characteristics and risks associated with trading the MACRO Tradeable Shares.

3. The Exchange will require ETP Holders to deliver a prospectus to investors purchasing newly issued MACRO Tradeable Shares prior to or concurrently with the confirmation of a transaction and will note this prospectus delivery requirement in the information circular.

This approval order is conditioned on the Exchange's adherence to these representations.

The Commission finds good cause for approving this proposal before the thirtieth day after the publication of notice thereof in the Federal Register. As noted previously, the Commission previously found that the listing and trading of the MACRO Tradeable Shares on Amex is consistent with the Act. The Commission presently is not aware of any regulatory issue that should cause it to revisit that earlier finding or preclude the trading of the MACRO Tradeable Shares on the Exchange pursuant to UTP. Therefore, accelerating approval of this proposal should benefit investors by creating, without undue delay, additional competition in the market for the MACRO Tradeable Shares.

V. Conclusion

It is therefore ordered, pursuant to Section 19(b)(2) of the Act, that the proposed rule change (SR-NYSEArca-2006-75), as amended by Amendment Nos. 1 and 2, be and hereby is, approved on an accelerated basis.
