Extension:
Rule 0–2, Form ADV–NR, SEC File No.
270–214, OMB Control No. 3235–0240.
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 extension
and approval.
The titles for the collections of
information are ‘‘Rule 0–2’’ (17 CFR
275.0–2) and ‘‘Form ADV–NR’’ (17 CFR
VerDate Aug<31>2005

Jkt 214001
279.4) under the Investment Advisers
Act of 1940 (15 U.S.C. 80b–1). Rule 0–
2 and Form ADV–NR facilitate service
of process to non-resident investment
advisers and their non-resident general
partners or non-resident managing
agents. The Form requires these persons
to designate the Commission as agent
for service of process. The purpose of
this collection of information is to
enable the commencement of legal and
or regulatory actions against investment
advisers that are doing business in the
United States, but are not residents.
The respondents to this information
collection would be each non-resident
general partner or non-resident
managing agent of an SEC-registered
adviser. The Commission has estimated
that compliance with the requirement to
complete Form ADV–NR imposes a total
burden of approximately 1.0 hours for
an adviser. Based on our experience
with these filings, we estimate that we
will receive 18 Form ADV–NR filings
annually. Based on the 1.0 hours per
respondent estimate, the Commission
staff estimates a total annual burden of
18 hours for this collection of
information.
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.

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 a
request for extension of the previously
approved collection of information
discussed below.
• Rule 17f–1(g) (17 CFR 240.17f–1(g))
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
(15 U.S.C. 78q(f)) (‘‘Act’’) Requirements
for reporting and inquiry with respect to
missing, lost, counterfeit, or stolen
securities.
Rule 17f–1(g), under the Act, requires
that all reporting institutions (i.e., every
national securities exchange, member
thereof, registered securities association,
broker, dealer, municipal securities
dealer, registered transfer agent,
registered clearing agency, participant
therein, member of the Federal Reserve
System, and bank insured by the FDIC)
maintain and preserve a number of
documents related to their participation
in the Lost and Stolen Securities
Program (‘‘Program’’) under Rule 17f–1.
The following documents must be kept
in an easily accessible place for three
years, according to paragraph (g): (1)
Copies or all reports of theft or loss
(Form X–17F–1A) filed with the
Commission’s designee; (2) all
agreements between reporting
institutions regarding registration in the
Program or other aspects of Rule 17f–1;
and (3) all confirmations or other
information received from the
Commission or its designee as a result
of inquiry.
Reporting institutions utilize these
records and reports (a) to report missing,
lost, stolen or counterfeit securities to
the database, (b) to confirm inquiry of
the database, and (c) to demonstrate
compliance with Rule 17f–1. The
Commission and the reporting
institutions’ examining authorities
utilize these records to monitor the
incidence of thefts and losses incurred
by reporting institutions and to
determine compliance with Rule 17f–1.
If such records were not retained by
reporting institutions, compliance with
