Rule 477. OMB Control No. 3235–0550,
SEC File No. 270–493.
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.
Rule 477 (17 CFR 230.477) under the
Securities Act of 1933 (15 U.S.C. 77a et
seq.) sets forth procedures for
withdrawing a registration statement,
including any amendments or exhibits
to the registration statement. The rule
provides that if an issuer intends to rely
on the safe harbor contained in
Securities Act Rule 155 to conduct an
unregistered private offering of
securities, the issuer must affirmatively
state in the withdrawal application that
it plans to undertake a subsequent
private offering of its securities. Without
this statement, the Commission would
not be able to monitor a company’s
reliance on, and compliance with,
Securities Act Rule 155(c). We estimate
that approximately 300 issuers will file
Securities Act Rule 477 submissions
annually at an estimated one hour per
response for a total annual burden of
approximately 300 hours.
Written comments are invited on: (a)
Whether this 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 imposed by 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

An agency may not conduct or

Rule 155. OMB Control No. 3235–0549,

Notice is hereby given that, pursuant

(‘‘Commission’’) is soliciting comments

Rule 155 (17 CFR 230.155) under the
Securities Act of 1933 (15 U.S.C. 77a et
seq.) provides safe harbors for a
registered offering of securities
following an abandoned private
offering, or a private offering following
an abandoned registered offering,
without integrating the registered and
private offerings in either case. In
connection with a registered offering
following an abandoned private
offering, Rule 155 requires an issuer to
include in any prospectus filed as a part
of a registration statement disclosure
regarding the abandoned the private
offering. Similarly, the rule requires an
issuer to provide each offeree in a
private offering following an abandoned
registered offering with: (1) Information
concerning the withdrawal of the
registration statement; (2) the fact that
PO 00000
Frm 00081

the private offering is unregistered; and
(3) the legal implications of the
offering’s unregistered status. We
estimate Rule 155 takes approximately 4
hours per response to prepare and is
filed by 600 respondents annually. We
estimate that 50% of the 4 hours per
response (2 hours per response) is
prepared by the filer for a total annual
reporting burden of 1,200 hours (2 hours
per response × 600 responses).
Written comments are invited on: (a)
Whether this 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 imposed by 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

through the use of automated collection
