commission merchant (``FCM'') to submit to the Commodity Futures
Trading Commission (``Commission'') certain specified information
concerning pending legal proceedings to which the DCM or FCM is a party
or to which its property is subject.\1\ The Commission initially
estimated that 105 entities would be affected by this rule. That number
was based on the current numbers of active registered DCMs (15) and
FCMs (75).\2\ These numbers remain current, and the Commission received
no comments on the 60-day notice.
