Agency Information Collection Activities: Proposed Request and Comment Request, 22569-22570 [2014-09095]

Download as PDF 22569 Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 77 / Tuesday, April 22, 2014 / Notices The Small Business Investment Company (SBIC) Program is one of the financial assistance programs available through SBA. The SBIC Program was established under the Small Business Investment Act of 1958, as amended. SBICs are privately owned and managed investment funds, licensed and regulated by SBA, that use their own capital plus funds borrowed with an SBA guarantee to make equity and debt investments in qualifying small businesses. The License Application for a Small Business Investment Company (SBA Form 2183) requires an applicant to submit, among other things, its organizational documents. Since the majority of applicants to the SBIC program are formed as limited partnerships, most applicants submit their limited partnership agreement as part of their application. The original version of the Model was developed in 2000 to assist applicants in producing a limited partnership agreement suitable for an SBIC and to facilitate this process by including provisions required by the regulations governing the SBIC Program (13 CFR Part 107) and other SBA policy requirements designed to minimize the risk of loss to SBA in providing financial assistance to SBICs. The SBA Model Form of Agreement of Limited Partnership for an SBIC Issuing Debentures Only is available at https:// www.sba.gov/content/modelpartnership-agreement. To further assist applicants, the required provisions are shown in the Model in bold Arial typeface. Applicants to the SBIC Program are not required to use the Model and are permitted to submit any form of limited partnership agreement; however, those applicants that do not use the Model must either include in their limited partnership agreement the bold Arial typeface provisions from the Model or attach an annex to their limited partnership agreement with the bold Arial typeface provisions from the Model. As a result, for many applicants, the Model provides an efficient tool in SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: preparing a limited partnership agreement. Since the Model was developed in 2000, changes have occurred both in the structure and operation of limited partnerships and in the venture capital industry. SBA is soliciting comments and recommendations from the public on updating the Model and will consider such comments when revising it. The SBA will not issue another notice in the Federal Register but will post the final revised version of the Model on the SBIC Web site at https:// www.sba.gov/category/lendernavigation/sba-loan-programs/sbicprogram-0. Authority: 15 U.S.C. 681. Dated: April 17, 2014. Javier Saade, Associate Administrator for Investment and Innovation.

Questionnaire About Employment or Self-Employment Outside the United States—20 CFR 404.401(b)(1), 404.415 & 404.417–0960–0050. When a Social Security beneficiary or claimant reports work outside the United States, SSA uses Form SSA–7163 to determine if foreign work deductions are applicable. Specifically, SSA uses Form SSA–7163 to determine: (1) whether work performed by beneficiaries outside the United States is cause for deductions from their monthly benefits; (2) which of two work tests (foreign or regular test) is applicable; and (3) the number of months, if any, for SSA-imposed deductions. As the respondents are beneficiaries living and working outside the United States, SSA must determine whether the annual earnings test applies to all earnings from work covered by the Social Security Act, including earnings from covered work performed outside the United States. However, because of the differences in foreign currency values, it is administratively impractical to apply this test to earnings from noncovered work performed outside the United States and base it on United States dollars. Accordingly, the 45-hour work test provides for deductions from the benefits of employees under full retirement age who engage in noncovered remunerative activity for more than 45 hours in a calendar month. SSA asks beneficiaries working outside the United States to complete this form annually or every other year (depending on the country of residence). Respondents are beneficiaries or claimants for Social Security benefits who are engaged in work outside the United States. Type of Request: Revision of an OMBapproved information collection.
