270–177, OMB Control No. 3235–0177.
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.
Rule 6e–2 (17 CFR 270.6e–2) under
the Investment Company Act of 1940
(‘‘Act’’) (15 U.S.C. 80a) is an exemptive
rule that provides separate accounts
formed by life insurance companies to
fund certain variable life insurance
products, exemptions from certain
provisions of the Act, subject to
conditions set forth in the rule. The rule
sets forth several information collection
requirements.
Rule 6e–2 provides a separate account
with an exemption from the registration
provisions of section 8(a) of the Act if
the account files with the Commission
Form N–6EI–1, a notification of claim of
exemption.
The rule also exempts a separate
account from a number of other sections
of the Act, provided that the separate
account makes certain disclosure in its
registration statements (in the case of
VerDate Mar<15>2010

Jkt 223001
those separate accounts that elect to
register), reports to contractholders,
proxy solicitations, and submissions to
state regulatory authorities, as
prescribed by the rule.
Paragraph (b)(9) of rule 6e–2 provides
an exemption from the requirements of
section 17(f) of the Act and imposes a
reporting burden and certain other
conditions. Section 17(f) requires that
every registered management company
meet various custody requirements for
its securities and similar investments.
The exemption provided in paragraph
(b)(9) applies only to management
accounts that offer life insurance
contracts.
Since 2008, there have been no filings
under paragraph (b)(9) of rule 6e–2 by
management accounts. Therefore, since
2008, there has been no cost or burden
to the industry regarding the
information collection requirements of
paragraph (b)(9) of rule 6e–2. In
addition, there have been no filings of
Form N–6EI–1 by separate accounts
since 2008. The Commission requests
authorization to maintain an inventory
of one burden hour for administrative
purposes.
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 shall have practical utility;
(b) the accuracy of the agency’s estimate
of the burden of the proposed collection
of information; (c) ways to enhance the
quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be 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.

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION
Proposed Collection; Comment Request
Upon Written Request, Copies Available From: Securities and Exchange
Commission, Office of Investor Education and Advocacy, Washington, DC
20549-0213.
Extension:
Rule 6e-2 and Form N-6EI-1, SEC File No. 270-177, OMB Control
No. 3235-0177.
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.
Rule 6e-2 (17 CFR 270.6e-2) under the Investment Company Act of
1940 (``Act'') (15 U.S.C. 80a) is an exemptive rule that provides
separate accounts formed by life insurance companies to fund certain
variable life insurance products, exemptions from certain provisions of
the Act, subject to conditions set forth in the rule. The rule sets
forth several information collection requirements.
Rule 6e-2 provides a separate account with an exemption from the
registration provisions of section 8(a) of the Act if the account files
with the Commission Form N-6EI-1, a notification of claim of exemption.
The rule also exempts a separate account from a number of other
sections of the Act, provided that the separate account makes certain
disclosure in its registration statements (in the case of those
separate accounts that elect to register), reports to contractholders,
proxy solicitations, and submissions to state regulatory authorities,
as prescribed by the rule.
Paragraph (b)(9) of rule 6e-2 provides an exemption from the
requirements of section 17(f) of the Act and imposes a reporting burden
and certain other conditions. Section 17(f) requires that every
registered management company meet various custody requirements for its
securities and similar investments. The exemption provided in paragraph
(b)(9) applies only to management accounts that offer life insurance
contracts.
Since 2008, there have been no filings under paragraph (b)(9) of
rule 6e-2 by management accounts. Therefore, since 2008, there has been
no cost or burden to the industry regarding the information collection
requirements of paragraph (b)(9) of rule 6e-2. In addition, there have
been no filings of Form N-6EI-1 by separate accounts since 2008. The
Commission requests authorization to maintain an inventory of one
burden hour for administrative purposes.
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 shall
have practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the agency's estimate of
the burden of the proposed collection of information; (c) ways to
enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be

information on respondents, including through the use of automated
