Protection of Information
1. Each licensee who obtains a criminal
history record on an individual pursuant to
this Order shall establish and maintain a
system of files and procedures for protecting
the record and the personal information from
unauthorized disclosure.
2. The licensee may not disclose the record
or personal information collected and

in performing assigned duties in the process
of determining access to SGI. No individual
authorized to have access to the information
may re-disseminate the information to any
other individual who does not have a needto-know.
3. The personal information obtained on an
individual from a criminal history record
check may be transferred to another licensee
if the licensee holding the criminal history
record check receives the individual’s
written request to re-disseminate the
information contained in his/her file, and the
current licensee verifies information such as
the individual’s name, date of birth, social
security number, sex, and other applicable
physical characteristics for identification
purposes.
4. The licensee shall make criminal history
records, obtained under this section,
available for examination by an authorized

Proposed Collection; Comment
Request
Upon written request, copies available
from: Securities and Exchange
Commission, Office of Filings and
Information Services, Washington, DC
20549.
Extension: Form N–CSR; SEC File No. 270–
512; OMB Control No. 3235–0570.
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 (the
‘‘Commission’’) is soliciting comments
on the collection of information
summarized below. The Commission
plans to submit this existing collection
of information to the Office of
Management and Budget for extension
and approval.
The title for the collection of
information is ‘‘Form N–CSR (17 CFR
249.331 and 17 CFR 274.128) under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (15
U.S.C. 78a et seq.) (‘‘Securities Exchange
Act’’), and under the Investment
Company Act of 1940 (15 U.S.C. 80a–1
et seq.) (‘‘Investment Company Act’’),
Certified Shareholder Report of
Registered Management Investment
Companies.’’ Form N–CSR is a
combined reporting form used by
management investment companies to
file certified shareholder reports under
the Investment Company Act and under
the Securities Exchange Act. Form N–
CSR is to be used for reports under
PO 00000

Sfmt 4703
17205
section 30(b)(2) of the Investment
Company Act and section 13(a) or 15(d)
of the Securities Exchange Act, filed
pursuant to rule 30b2–1(a) under the
Investment Company Act (17 CFR
270.30b2–1(a)). Form N–CSR reports are
to be filed with the Commission not
later than 10 days after the transmission
to stockholders of any report that is
required to be transmitted to
stockholders under rule 30e–1 under the
Investment Company Act (17 CFR
270.30e–1). The information provided
on Form N–CSR may be used by the
Commission in its regulatory, disclosure
review, inspection, and policymaking
roles. The information filed with the
Commission also permits the
verification of compliance with
securities law requirements and assures
the public availability and
dissemination of the information.
The Commission estimates that there
are 7,300 reports filed on Form N–CSR
annually and that the average number of
portfolios referenced in each filing is
2.5. The Commission further estimates
that the hour burden for preparing and
filing a report on Form N–CSR is 7.57
hours per portfolio. Given that filings on
Form N–CSR are filed semi-annually,
filings on Form N–CSR require 15.14
hours per portfolio each year. The total
annual hour burden for Form N–CSR,
therefore, is estimated to be 138,153
hours.
The information collection
requirements imposed by Form N–CSR
are mandatory. Responses to the
collection of information will not be
kept confidential. An agency may not
conduct or sponsor, and a person is not
required to respond to a collection of
information unless it displays a
currently valid control number.
Written comments are invited on: (a)
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;
(b) the accuracy of the agency’s estimate
of the burden of the collection of
information; (c) ways to enhance the
quality, utility, and clarity of the
information collected; and (d) ways to
minimize the burden of the collection of
information on respondents, including
through the use of automated collection
techniques or other forms of information
technology. Consideration will be given
to comments and suggestions submitted
in writing within 60 days of this
publication.

Extension: Form S–8; OMB Control No.

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 collection of information
summarized below. The Commission
plans to submit this existing collection
of information to the Office of
Management and Budget for approval.
Form S–8 (17 CFR 239.16b) under the
Securities Act of 1933 (15 U.S.C. 77a et
seq.) is the primary registration
statement used by qualified registrants
to register securities issued in
connection with employee benefit
plans. We estimate that Form S–8 takes
approximately 24 hours per response to
prepare and is filed by 3,847
respondents. We estimate that 50% of
the 24 hours per response (12 hours per
response) is prepared by the filer for a
total annual reporting burden of 46,164
hours (12 hours per response × 3,847
responses).
Written comments are invited on: (a)
Whether this proposed collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
agency, including whether the
information will have practical utility;
(b) the accuracy of the agency’s estimate
of the burden imposed by the collection

technology. Consideration will be given

respondents will be companies. Rule
155 takes approximately 4 hours per
response to prepare and is filed by 600
respondents. We estimate that 50% of
the 4 hours per response (2 hours per
response) is prepared by the filer for a
total annual reporting burden of 1,200
hours (2 hours per response × 600
responses).
Rule 477 (17 CFR 230.477) under the
Securities Act of 1933 (15 U.S.C. 77a et
seq.) sets forth procedures for
withdrawing a registration statement or
any amendment or exhibits thereto. The
rule provides that if a registrant applies
for withdrawal in anticipation of
reliance on Rule 155’s registered-toprivate safe harbor, the registrant must
state in the withdrawal application that
the registrant plans to undertake a
subsequent private offering in reliance
on the rule. Without this statement, the
Commission would not be able to
monitor issuers’ reliance on, and
compliance with, Rule 155(c). The
likely respondents will be companies.
We estimate that 300 issuers will file
Rule 477 submissions annually at an
estimated one-hour per response for a
total annual burden of 300 hours. We
estimate that 100% of the reporting
burden is prepared by the issuer.

Commission, Office of Filings and Information Services, Washington, DC
20549.
Extension: Form N-CSR; SEC File No. 270-512; OMB Control No. 3235-
0570.
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 (the ``Commission'') is soliciting comments on the
collection of information summarized below. The Commission plans to
submit this existing collection of information to the Office of
Management and Budget for extension and approval.
The title for the collection of information is ``Form N-CSR (17 CFR
249.331 and 17 CFR 274.128) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
(15 U.S.C. 78a et seq.) (``Securities Exchange Act''), and under the
Investment Company Act of 1940 (15 U.S.C. 80a-1 et seq.) (``Investment
Company Act''), Certified Shareholder Report of Registered Management
Investment Companies.'' Form N-CSR is a combined reporting form used by
management investment companies to file certified shareholder reports
under the Investment Company Act and under the Securities Exchange Act.
Form N-CSR is to be used for reports under section 30(b)(2) of the
Investment Company Act and section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities
Exchange Act, filed pursuant to rule 30b2-1(a) under the Investment
Company Act (17 CFR 270.30b2-1(a)). Form N-CSR reports are to be filed
with the Commission not later than 10 days after the transmission to
stockholders of any report that is required to be transmitted to
stockholders under rule 30e-1 under the Investment Company Act (17 CFR
270.30e-1). The information provided on Form N-CSR may be used by the
Commission in its regulatory, disclosure review, inspection, and
policymaking roles. The information filed with the Commission also
permits the verification of compliance with securities law requirements
and assures the public availability and dissemination of the
information.
The Commission estimates that there are 7,300 reports filed on Form
N-CSR annually and that the average number of portfolios referenced in
each filing is 2.5. The Commission further estimates that the hour
burden for preparing and filing a report on Form N-CSR is 7.57 hours
per portfolio. Given that filings on Form N-CSR are filed semi-
annually, filings on Form N-CSR require 15.14 hours per portfolio each
year. The total annual hour burden for Form N-CSR, therefore, is
estimated to be 138,153 hours.
The information collection requirements imposed by Form N-CSR are
mandatory. Responses to the collection of information will not be kept
confidential. An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not
required to respond to a collection of information unless it displays a
currently valid control number.

collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of
