Extension: Rule 30e–1; SEC File No. 270–21, OMB Control No. 3235–0025. Notice is hereby given that, under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.) (‘‘Paperwork Reduction Act’’), the Securities and PO 00000 Frm 00061 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 62271 Exchange Commission (the ‘‘Commission’’) has submitted to the Office of Management and Budget (‘‘OMB’’) a request for extension of the previously approved collection of information discussed below. Rule 30e–1 (17 CFR 270.30e–1) under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (15 U.S.C. 80a–1 et seq.) (‘‘Investment Company Act’’) generally requires a registered investment company (‘‘fund’’) to transmit to its shareholders, at least semi-annually, reports containing the information that is required to be included in such reports by the fund’s registration statement form under the Investment Company Act. The purpose of the collection of information required by rule 30e–1 is to provide fund shareholders with current information about the operation of their funds in accordance with Section 30 of the Investment Company Act. Approximately 2,490 funds, with a total of approximately 10,750 portfolios, respond to rule 30e–1 annually. Based on conversations with fund representatives, we estimate that it takes approximately 84 hours to comply with the collection of information associated with rule 30e–1 per portfolio. This time is spent, for example, preparing, reviewing, and certifying the reports. Accordingly, we calculate the total estimated annual internal burden of responding to rule 30e–1 to be approximately 903,000 hours (84 hours × 10,750 portfolios). In addition to the burden hours, based on conversations with fund representatives, we estimate that the total cost burden of compliance with the information collection requirements of rule 30e–1 is approximately $31,061 per portfolio. This includes, for example, the costs for funds to prepare, print, and mail the reports. Accordingly, we calculate the total external cost burden associated with rule 30e–1 to be approximately $333,905,750. Estimates of the average burden hours are made solely for the purposes of the Paperwork Reduction Act and are not derived from a comprehensive or even representative survey or study of the costs of Commission rules and forms. The collection of information under rule 30e–1 is mandatory. The information provided under rule 30e–1 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 OMB control number.

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’’) has submitted to the Office of Management and Budget (‘‘OMB’’) a request for extension of the previously approved collection of information discussed below. Form N–5 (17 CFR 239.24 and 274.5)—Registration Statement of Small Business Investment Companies Under the Securities Act of 1933 (15 U.S.C. 77a et seq.) and the Investment Company Act of 1940 (15 U.S.C. 80a–1 et seq.) Form N–5 is the integrated registration statement form adopted by the Commission for use by a small business investment company which has been licensed as such under the Small Business Investment Act of 1958 and has been notified by the Small Business Administration that the company may submit a license application, to register its securities under the Securities Act of 1933 (‘‘Securities Act’’), and to register as an investment company under section 8 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 (‘‘Investment Company Act’’). The purpose of registration under the Securities Act is to ensure that investors are provided with material VerDate Mar<15>2010 13:59 Oct 11, 2012 Jkt 229001 information concerning securities offered for public sale that will permit investors to make informed decisions regarding such securities. The Commission staff reviews the registration statements for the adequacy and accuracy of the disclosure contained therein. Without Form N–5, the Commission would be unable to carry out the requirements to the Securities Act and Investment Company Act for registration of small business investment companies. The respondents to the collection of information are small business investment companies seeking to register under the Investment Company Act and to register their securities for sale to the public under the Securities Act. Based on discussions with fund representatives and the Commission’s experience with the filing of Form N–5 and with disclosure documents generally, we estimate that the reporting burden of compliance with Form N–5 is approximately 352 hours per respondent. The Commission has received one Form N–5 filing in the last three years, for an average annual hourly burden of 117 hours. The cost of compliance varies considerably depending on factors such as whether a filing is a new registration statement or an update to a previously effective registration statement; whether the fund being registered presents novel or complex legal issues or is similar to other funds; whether amendments are required in response to staff comments; and whether outside counsel and accountants are necessary for preparation of the filing. Based on discussions with fund representatives and the Commission’s experience with the filing of Form N–5 and with comparable disclosure documents, we estimate that the cost of compliance may range from less than $15,000 (for a routine filing) to over $60,000 (for a registration statement presenting significant legal issues per response) with an average cost per filing of $30,000. There has been one Form N– 5 filing in the last three years. We therefore estimate that the average annual cost burden to the industry is $10,000. Providing the information on Form N–5 is mandatory. Responses will not be kept confidential. Estimates of the burden hours are made solely for the purposes of the Paperwork Reduction Act, and are not derived from a comprehensive or even a representative survey or study of the costs of SEC rules and forms.

Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request

Upon Written Request Copies Available From: Securities and Exchange 
Commission, Office of Investor Education and Advocacy, Washington, DC 
20549-0213.

Extension:
    Rule 30e-1; SEC File No. 270-21, OMB Control No. 3235-0025.

    Notice is hereby given that, under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 
1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.) (``Paperwork Reduction Act''), the 
Securities and Exchange Commission (the ``Commission'') has submitted 
to the Office of Management and Budget (``OMB'') a request for 
extension of the previously approved collection of information 
discussed below.
    Rule 30e-1 (17 CFR 270.30e-1) under the Investment Company Act of 
1940 (15 U.S.C. 80a-1 et seq.) (``Investment Company Act'') generally 
requires a registered investment company (``fund'') to transmit to its 
shareholders, at least semi-annually, reports containing the 
information that is required to be included in such reports by the 
fund's registration statement form under the Investment Company Act. 
The purpose of the collection of information required by rule 30e-1 is 
to provide fund shareholders with current information about the 
operation of their funds in accordance with Section 30 of the 
Investment Company Act.
    Approximately 2,490 funds, with a total of approximately 10,750 
portfolios, respond to rule 30e-1 annually. Based on conversations with 
fund representatives, we estimate that it takes approximately 84 hours 
to comply with the collection of information associated with rule 30e-1 
per portfolio. This time is spent, for example, preparing, reviewing, 
and certifying the reports. Accordingly, we calculate the total 
estimated annual internal burden of responding to rule 30e-1 to be 
approximately 903,000 hours (84 hours x 10,750 portfolios). In addition 
to the burden hours, based on conversations with fund representatives, 
we estimate that the total cost burden of compliance with the 
information collection requirements of rule 30e-1 is approximately 
$31,061 per portfolio. This includes, for example, the costs for funds 
to prepare, print, and mail the reports. Accordingly, we calculate the 
total external cost burden associated with rule 30e-1 to be 
approximately $333,905,750.
    Estimates of the average burden hours are made solely for the 
purposes of the Paperwork Reduction Act and are not derived from a 
comprehensive or even representative survey or study of the costs of 
Commission rules and forms. The collection of information under rule 
30e-1 is mandatory. The information provided under rule 30e-1 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 OMB control number.
