information collection requests (ICR) to
the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) for review and approval in
accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104–13,
44 U.S.C. chapter 35). A copy of each
ICR, with applicable supporting
documentation, may be obtained by
contacting Darrin King on 202–693–
4129 (this is not a toll-free number) or
e-mail: king.darrin@dol.gov.
Comments should be sent to Office of
Information and Regulatory Affairs,
Attn: OMB Desk Officer for the
Employee Benefits Security
Administration (EBSA), Office of
Management and Budget, Room 10235,
Washington, DC 20503, 202–395–7316
(this is not a toll-free number), within
30 days from the date of this publication
in the Federal Register.
The OMB is particularly interested in
comments which:
• Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility;
• Evaluate the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
• Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and
• Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including through the
use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submission of
responses.
Agency: Employee Benefits Security
Administration.
Type of Review: Extension of
currently approved collection.
Title: Settlement Agreements Between
a Plan and Party in Interest.
OMB Number: 1210–0091.
Frequency: On occasion.
Type of Response: Recordkeeping and
third party disclosure.
Affected Public: Business or other forprofit; individuals or households; and
not-for-profit institutions.

Number of Respondents: 4.
Number of Annual Responses: 1,080.
Estimated Time Per Response: 1 hour

Total Burden Hours: 28.
Total Annualized capital/startup

Total Annual Costs (operating/

Description: Section 408(a) of the
Employee Retirement Income Security
Act of 1974 (ERISA) and section
4975(c)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code
of 1986 (the Code) give the Secretary of
Labor the authority to grant an
exemption to a class or order of
fiduciaries, disqualified persons, or
transactions from all or part of the
restrictions imposed by sections 406
and 407(a) of ERISA and from the taxes
imposed by sections 4975(a) and (b) of
the Code, by reason of section 4975(c)(1)
of the Code.
This information collection request
(ICR) relates to two prohibited
transaction class exemptions (PTEs) that
the Department of Labor (the
Department) has granted, both of which
involve settlement agreements. PTE 94–
71 exempts from certain restrictions of
the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act and certain taxes of the
Code, settlement agreements entered
into between a plan and a party in
interest resulting from an investigation
of an employee benefit plan by the
Department. PTE 03–39 similarly
exempts from certain restrictions of
ERISA and certain taxes of the Code,
settlement agreements entered into
between a plan and a party in interest
in avoidance of litigation.
The information collections are
intended to protect participants and
beneficiaries under the plans that
engage in settlement agreements.
Without the required disclosures, the
Department would be unable to enforce
effectively the terms of the exemptions
and ensure transactional compliance.
The information collections allow the
Department to monitor the settlement
activities (under PTE 94–71) undertaken
in connection with its own
investigations and to review other
settlement agreements within the scope
of its investigations. The information
collection under PTE 94–71 also
provides participants and beneficiaries
with important information about
transactions affecting their plan.
Agency: Employee Benefits Security
Administration.
Type of Review: Extension of
currently approved collection.

ERISA.
