Extensions:
Form F–9; OMB Control No. 3235–0377;
SEC File No. 270–333
Form F–10; OMB Control No. 3235–0380;
SEC File No. 270–334
Notice is hereby given that pursuant
to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.) the Securities
and Exchange Commission
(‘‘Commission’’) is soliciting comments
on the collections of information
summarized below. The Commission
plans to submit these existing
collections of information to the Office
of Management Budget for extensionand
approval.
Form F–9 is a registration statement
under the Securities Act of 1933 that is
used to register investment grade debt or
investment grade preferred securities
that are offered for cash or in connection
with an exchange offer and are either
non-convertible or not convertible for a
period of at least one year from the date
of issuance and thereafter are only
convertible into a security of another
class of the issuer. The purpose of the
information collection is to permit
verification of compliance with
securities law requirements and to
assure the public availability and
dissemination of such information. The
principal function of the Commission’s
forms and rules under the securities
laws’ disclosure provisions is to make
information available to the investors.
We estimate that Form F–9 takes
approximately 25 hours per response
and it is filed by 18 respondents. We
further estimate that 25% of the 450
total burden hours (113 burden hours) is
prepared by the company.
Form F–10 is a registration statement
under the Securities Act of 1933 that is
used by certain Canadian ‘‘substantial
issuers’’ (those issuers with at least 36
calendar months of reporting history
with a securities commission in Canada
and a market value of common stock of
at least $360 million (Canadian) and an
aggregate market value of common stock
held by non-affiliates of at least $75
million (Canadian)). The purpose of the
information collection is to facilitate
cross-border offerings by specified
Canadian issuers. We estimate that
Form F–10 takes approximately 25
hours per response and is filed by 75
respondents. We further estimate that
25% of the 1,875 total burden hours
(469 burden hours) are prepared by the
company.
