Control No. 3235-xxxx
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’’) has submitted to the
Office of Management and Budget
(‘‘OMB’’) a request for approval of the
collection of information discussed
below.
Rule 607 under Regulation E (17 CFR
230.607) entitled, ‘‘Sales material to be
filed,’’ requires sales material used in
connection with securities offerings
VerDate Aug<31>2005

Jkt 214001
under Regulation E (17 CFR 230.601 to
610a) to be filed with the Commission
at least five days (excluding weekends
and holidays) prior to its use.1
Regulation E allows the exemption of
securities issued by a small business
investment company (‘‘SBIC’’) which is
registered under the Investment
Company Act of 1940 (‘‘Investment
Company Act’’) (15 U.S.C. 80a–1 et seq.)
or a closed-end investment company
that has elected to be regulated as a
business development company
(‘‘BDC’’) under the Investment Company
Act from registration under the
Securities Act of 1933 (‘‘Securities Act’’)
(15 U.S.C. 77a et seq.), so long as the
aggregate offering price of all securities
of the issuer that may be sold within a
12-month period does not exceed
$5,000,000 and certain other conditions
are met. Commission staff reviews sales
material filed under rule 607 for
materially misleading statements and
omissions. The requirements of rule 607
are designed for investor protection.
Respondents to this collection of
information include SBICs and BDCs
making an offering of securities
pursuant to Regulation E. Each
respondent’s reporting burden under
rule 607 relates to the burden associated
with filing its sales material
electronically. The burden of filing
electronically, however, is negligible
and there have been no filings made
under this rule, so this collection of
information does not impose any
burden on the industry. However, we
are requesting one annual response and
an annual burden of one hour for
administrative purposes. The estimate
of average burden hours is made solely
for purposes of the Paperwork
Reduction Act and is not derived from
a quantitative, comprehensive, or even
representative survey or study of the
burdens associated with Commission
rules and forms.
The requirements of this collection of
information are mandatory. Responses
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.
General comments regarding the
above information should be directed to
the following persons: (i) Desk Officer
for the Securities and Exchange
Commission, Office of Information and
1 Sales material includes advertisements, articles
or other communications to be published in
newspapers, magazines, or other periodicals; radio
and television scripts; and letters, circulars or other
written communications proposed to be sent given
or otherwise communicated to more than ten
persons.
