Extension: Form S–8; OMB Control No.
3235–0066; SEC File No. 270–66.
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
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

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’’) 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 and Budget for
extension and approval.
Rule 155 (17 CFR 230.155) under the
Securities Act of 1933 (15 U.S.C. 77a et
seq.) provides safe harbors for a
registered offering following an
abandoned private offering, or a private
offering following an abandoned
registered offering, without integrating
the registered and private offerings in
either case. Rule 155 requires any
prospectus filed as a part of a
registration statement after a private
offering to include disclosure regarding
abandonment of the private offering.
Similarly, the rule requires an issuer to
provide each offeree in a private offering
following an abandoned registered
offering with: (1) Information
concerning withdrawal of the
registration statement; (2) the fact that
the private offering is unregistered; and
(3) the legal implications of the
offering’s unregistered status. The likely
