Rule 602, SEC File No. 270–404, OMB
Control No. 3235–0461
Notice is hereby given that pursuant
to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(‘‘PRA’’) (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), the
Securities and Exchange Commission
(‘‘Commission’’) has submitted to the
Office of Management and Budget
(‘‘OMB’’) a request for approval of the
extension of the previously approved
collection of information provided for in
Rule 602 of Regulation NMS (17 CFR
240.602), under the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934 (15 U.S.C. 78a et seq.).
Rule 602 of Regulation NMS,
Dissemination of Quotations in NMS
securities, contains two related
collections. The first collection of
information is found in Rule 602(a).1
This third-party disclosure requirement
obligates each national securities
exchange and national securities
association to make available to
quotation vendors for dissemination to
the public the best bid, best offer, and
aggregate quotation size for each
‘‘subject security,’’ as defined under the
Rule. The second collection of
information is found in Rule 602(b).2

This disclosure requirement obligates
any exchange member and over-thecounter (‘‘OTC’’) market maker that is a
‘‘responsible broker or dealer,’’ as
defined under the Rule, to communicate
to an exchange or association their best
bids, best offers, and quotation sizes for
subject securities.3
It is anticipated that 17 respondents,
consisting of 16 national securities
exchanges and one national securities
association, will collectively respond
approximately 839,944,682,631 times
per year pursuant to Rule 602(a) at 18.22
microseconds per response, resulting in
a total annual burden of approximately
4,250 hours.
It is anticipated that approximately
150 respondents, consisting of OTC
market makers, will collectively
respond approximately 28,200,000
times per year pursuant to Rule 602(b)
at 3 seconds per response, resulting in
a total annual burden of approximately
23,500 hours.
Thus, the aggregate third-party
disclosure burden under Rule 602 is
27,750 hours annually which is
comprised of 4,250 hours relating to
Rule 602(a) and 23,500 hours relating to
Rule 602(b).
Compliance with Rule 602 of
Regulation NMS is mandatory and the
information collected is made available
to the public.
An agency may not conduct or
sponsor, and a person is not required to
respond to, a collection of information
under the PRA unless it displays a
currently valid OMB control number.
The public may view background
documentation for this information
collection at the following Web site:
www.reginfo.gov. Comments should be
directed to: (i) Desk Officer for the
Securities and Exchange Commission,
Office of Information and Regulatory
Affairs, Office of Management and
Budget, Room 10102, New Executive
Office Building, Washington, DC 20503,
or by sending an email to:

Information Officer, Securities and
Exchange Commission, c/o Remi PavlikSimon, 100 F Street NE., Washington,
3 Under Rule 602(b)(5), electronic
communications networks (‘‘ECNs’’) have the
option of reporting to an exchange or association for
public dissemination, on behalf of customers that
are OTC market makers or exchange market makers,
the best-priced orders and the full size for such
orders entered by market makers on the ECN, to
satisfy such market makers’ reporting obligation
under Rule 602(b). Since this reporting requirement
is an alternative method of meeting the market
makers’ reporting obligation, and because it is
directed to nine or fewer persons (ECNs), this
collection of information is not subject to OMB
review under the Paperwork Reduction Act
(‘‘PRA’’).

Form N–CSR is to be used for reports
under section 30(b)(2) of the Investment
Company Act (15 U.S.C. 80a–29(b)(2))
and section 13(a) or 15(d) of the
Exchange Act (15 U.S.C. 78m(a) and
78o(d)), filed pursuant to rule 30b2–1(a)
under the Investment Company Act (17
CFR 270.30b2–1(a)). Reports on Form N
CSR are to be filed with the Securities

Form N–CSR is filed semi-annually,
and the Commission estimates that there
are 3,288 respondents. The Commission
also estimates that the average number
of portfolios referenced in each filing is
3.75. The Commission further estimates
that the hour burden for preparing and
filing a report on Form N–CSR is 7.21

Extension:
Rule 602, SEC File No. 270-404, OMB Control No. 3235-0461
Notice is hereby given that pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act
of 1995 (``PRA'') (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), the Securities and Exchange
Commission (``Commission'') has submitted to the Office of Management
and Budget (``OMB'') a request for approval of the extension of the
previously approved collection of information provided for in Rule 602
of Regulation NMS (17 CFR 240.602), under the Securities Exchange Act

Rule 602 of Regulation NMS, Dissemination of Quotations in NMS

information is found in Rule 602(a).\1\ This third-party disclosure

quotation size for each ``subject security,'' as defined under the
Rule. The second collection of information is found in Rule 602(b).\2\
This disclosure requirement obligates any exchange member and over-the-
counter (``OTC'') market maker that is a ``responsible broker or
dealer,'' as defined under the Rule, to communicate to an exchange or
association their best bids, best offers, and quotation sizes for
subject securities.\3\
