Extension:
Rule 19b–4(e) and Form 19b–4(e), OMB
Control No. 3235–0504, SEC File No.
270–447.
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
requests for extension of the previously
approved collections of information
discussed below. The Code of Federal
Regulation citation to this collection of
information is 17 CFR 240.19b–4(e)
under the Securities Exchange Act of
1934 (17 U.S.C 78a et seq.) (the ‘‘Act’’).
Rule 19b–4(e) permits a selfregulatory organization (‘‘SRO’’) to
immediately list and trade a new
derivative securities product so long as
such product is in compliance with the
criteria of Rule 19b–4(e) under the Act.
However, in order for the Commission
to maintain an accurate record of all
new derivative securities products
traded through the facilities of SROs
and to determine whether an SRO has
properly availed itself of the permission
VerDate Nov<24>2008
16:49 Jan 28, 2010
Jkt 220001
granted by Rule 19b–4(e), it is necessary
that the SRO maintain, on-site, a copy
of Form 19b–4(e) under the Act. Rule
19b–4(e) requires SROs to file a
summary form, Form 19b–4(e), and
thereby notify the Commission, within
five business days after the
commencement of trading a new
derivative securities product. In
addition, the Commission reviews SRO
compliance with Rule 19b–4(e) through
its routine inspections of the SROs.
The collection of information is
designed to allow the Commission to
maintain an accurate record of all new
derivative securities products traded
through the facilities of SROs and to
determine whether an SRO has properly
availed itself of the permission granted
by Rule 19b–4(e).
The respondents to the collection of
information are SROs (as defined by the
Act), all of which are national securities
exchanges.
Twelve respondents file an average
total of 3,180 responses per year, which
corresponds to an estimated annual
response burden of 3,180 hours.
Compliance with Rule 19b–4(e) is
mandatory. Information received in
response to Rule 19b–4(e) shall not be
kept confidential; the information
collected is public information.
Written comments are invited on: (a)
Whether the proposed collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
Commission, including whether the
information will have practical utility;
(b) the accuracy of the Commission’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.
Comments should be directed to
Charles Boucher, Director/Chief
Information Officer, Securities and
Exchange Commission, c/o Shirley
Martinson, 6432 General Green Way,

e-mail to: PRA_Mailbox@sec.gov.

Extension:
Rule 23c–3 and Form N–23c–3, SEC File
No. 270–373, OMB Control No. 3235–
0422.
Notice is hereby given that, pursuant
to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(44 U.S.C. 350 et. seq.), the Securities
and Exchange Commission (the
‘‘Commission’’) has submitted to the
Office of Management and Budget a
request for extension of the previously
approved collection of information
discussed below.
Rule 23c–3 (17 CFR 270.23c–3) under
the Investment Company Act of 1940
(15 U.S.C. 80a–1 et seq.) is entitled:
‘‘Repurchase of Securities of Closed-End
Companies.’’ The rule permits certain
closed-end investment companies
(‘‘closed-end funds’’ or ‘‘funds’’) to offer
to repurchase from shareholders a
limited number of shares at net asset
value. The rule includes several
reporting and recordkeeping
requirements. The fund must send
shareholders a notification that contains
specified information each time the
fund makes a repurchase offer (on a
quarterly, semi-annual, or annual basis,
or for certain funds, on a discretionary
basis not more often than every two
years). The fund also must file copies of
the shareholder notification with the
Commission (electronically through the
Commission’s Electronic Data
Gathering, Analysis, and Retrieval
System (‘‘EDGAR’’)) attached to Form N–
23c–3 (17 CFR 274.221), a filing that
provides limited information about the
fund and the type of offer the fund is
making.1 The fund must describe in its
annual report to shareholders the fund’s
policy concerning repurchase offers and
the results of any repurchase offers
made during the reporting period. The
fund’s board of directors must adopt
written procedures designed to ensure
that the fund’s investment portfolio is
sufficiently liquid to meet its repurchase
obligations and other obligations under
the rule. The board periodically must
review the composition of the fund’s
portfolio and change the liquidity
1 Form N–23c–3 requires the fund to state its
registration number, its full name and address, the
date of the accompanying shareholder notification,
and the type of offer being made (periodic,
discretionary, or both).
