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. Regulation Blackout Trade Restriction (‘‘Regulation BTR’’) (17 CFR 245.100– 245.104) clarifies the scope and application of Section 306(a) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (‘‘Act’’) (15 U.S.C. 7244(a)). Section 306(a)(6) (15 U.S.C.7244(a)(6)) of the Act requires an issuer to provide timely notice to its directors and executive officers and to the Commission of the imposition of a blackout period that would trigger the statutory trading prohibition of Section 306(a)(1) (15 U.S.C. 7244(a)(1)). The information provided under Regulation BTR is mandatory and is available to the public. Approximately 1,230 issuers file Regulation BTR notices annually. We estimate that it takes 2 hours per response for an issuer to draft a notice to directors and executive officers for a total annual burden of 2,460 hours. The issuer prepares 75% of the 2,460 annual burden hours for a total reporting burden of (1,230 × 2 hrs × 0.75) 1,845 hours. In addition, we estimate that an issuer distributes a notice to five VerDate Mar<15>2010 17:34 Feb 06, 2012 Jkt 226001 directors and executive officers at an estimated 5 minutes per notice (1,230 blackout period × 5 notices × 5 minutes) for a total reporting burden of 512 hours. The combined annual reporting burden is (1,845 hours + 512 hours) 2,357 hours. 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.

(``Commission'') has submitted to the Office of Management and Budget a 
request for extension of the previously approved collection of

    Regulation Blackout Trade Restriction (``Regulation BTR'') (17 CFR

of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (``Act'') (15 U.S.C. 7244(a)). 
Section 306(a)(6) (15 U.S.C.7244(a)(6)) of the Act requires an issuer 
to provide timely notice to its directors and executive officers and to 
the Commission of the imposition of a blackout period that would 
trigger the statutory trading prohibition of Section 306(a)(1) (15 
U.S.C. 7244(a)(1)). The information provided under Regulation BTR is 
mandatory and is available to the public. Approximately 1,230 issuers 
file Regulation BTR notices annually. We estimate that it takes 2 hours 
per response for an issuer to draft a notice to directors and executive 
officers for a total annual burden of 2,460 hours. The issuer prepares 
75% of the 2,460 annual burden hours for a total reporting burden of 
(1,230 x 2 hrs x 0.75) 1,845 hours. In addition, we estimate that an 
issuer distributes a notice to five directors and executive officers at 
an estimated 5 minutes per notice (1,230 blackout period x 5 notices x 
5 minutes) for a total reporting burden of 512 hours. The combined 
annual reporting burden is (1,845 hours + 512 hours) 2,357 hours.
