Control No. 3235–0381.
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.
Form 40–F (17 CFR 249.240f) is used
by certain Canadian issuers to register a
class of securities under Section 12 of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
(‘‘Exchange Act’’) (15 U.S.C. 78l) or as
an annual report pursuant to Section
13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act (15
U.S.C. 78m(a) or 78o(d)). The
information required in the Form 40–F
is used by investors in making
investment decisions with respect to the
securities of such Canadian companies.
We estimate that Form 40–F takes
approximately 427 hours per response
and is filed by approximately 160
respondents. We estimate that 25% of
the 427 hours per response (106.75
hours) is prepared by the issuer for a
total reporting burden of 17,080 (106.75
hours per response x 160 responses).
Written comments are invited on: (a)
Whether the proposed collection of
information is necessary for the proper

(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

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’’) is soliciting comments
on the existing collection of information
provided for in Rule 17Ac2–2 (17 CFR
240.17Ac2–2) and Form TA–2 under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (15
U.S.C. 78a et seq.) (‘‘Exchange Act’’).

Rule 17Ac2–2 and Form TA–2 require
registered transfer agents to file an
annual report of their business activities
with the Commission. These reporting
requirements are designed to ensure that
all registered transfer agents are
providing the Commission with
sufficient information on an annual
basis about the transfer agent
community and to permit the
Commission to effectively monitor
business activities of transfer agents.
The amount of time needed to comply
with the requirements of amended Rule
17Ac2–2 and Form TA–2 varies. Of the
total 429 registered transfer agents,
approximately 9.1% (or 39 registrants)
would be required to complete only
questions 1 through 3 and the signature
section of amended Form TA–2, which
the Commission estimates would take
each registrant approximately 30
minutes, for a total burden of 19.5 hours
(39 × .5 hours). Approximately 26.7% of
registrants (or 115 registrants) would be
required to answer questions 1 through
5, question 11 and the signature section,
which the Commission estimates would
take approximately 1 hour and 30
minutes, for a total of 172.5 hours (115
× 1.5 hours). Approximately 64.2% of
the registrants (or 275 registrants) would
be required to complete the entire Form
TA–2, which the Commission estimates
would take approximately 6 hours, for
a total of 1,650 hours (275 × 6 hours).
The aggregate annual burden on all 429
registered transfer agents is thus
approximately 1,842 hours (19.5 hours +
172.5 hours + 1,650 hours) and the
average annual burden per transfer
agent is approximately 4.3 hours (1,842
÷ 429).
Written comments are invited on: (a)
Whether the proposed collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
Commission, including whether the
information shall have practical utility;
(b) the accuracy of the Commission’s
estimates of the burden of the proposed
collection of information; (c) ways to
enhance the quality, utility, and clarity
of the information on respondents; and
(d) ways to minimize the burden of the
collection of information on
respondents, including through the use
of automated collection techniques or

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’’) is soliciting comments
on the existing collection of information
provided for in Rule 15g–6—Account
Statements for Penny Stock
Customers—(17 CFR 240.15g–6) under
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (15
U.S.C. 78a et seq.). The Commission
plans to submit this existing collection
of information to the Office of
Management and Budget (‘‘OMB’’) for
extension and approval.
Rule 15g–6 requires brokers and
dealers that sell penny stocks to provide
their customers monthly account
statements containing information with
regard to the penny stocks held in
customer accounts. The purpose of the
rule is to increase the level of disclosure
to investors concerning penny stocks
generally and specific penny stock
transactions.
The Commission estimates that
approximately 221 broker-dealers will
spend an average of 78 hours annually
to comply with this rule. Thus, the total
compliance burden is approximately
17,238 burden-hours per year.
Written comments are invited on: (a)
Whether the proposed collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
agency, including whether the
information shall have practical utility;

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'') is soliciting comments on the existing
collection of information provided for in Rule 17Ac2-2 (17 CFR
240.17Ac2-2) and Form TA-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
(15 U.S.C. 78a et seq.) (``Exchange Act''). The Commission plans to
submit this existing collection of information to the
[[Page 10732]]
Office of Management and Budget (``OMB'') for extension and approval.
Rule 17Ac2-2 and Form TA-2 require registered transfer agents to
file an annual report of their business activities with the Commission.
These reporting requirements are designed to ensure that all registered
transfer agents are providing the Commission with sufficient
information on an annual basis about the transfer agent community and
to permit the Commission to effectively monitor business activities of
transfer agents.
The amount of time needed to comply with the requirements of
amended Rule 17Ac2-2 and Form TA-2 varies. Of the total 429 registered
transfer agents, approximately 9.1% (or 39 registrants) would be
required to complete only questions 1 through 3 and the signature
section of amended Form TA-2, which the Commission estimates would take
each registrant approximately 30 minutes, for a total burden of 19.5

the Commission estimates would take approximately 6 hours, for a total
of 1,650 hours (275 x 6 hours). The aggregate annual burden on all 429
registered transfer agents is thus approximately 1,842 hours (19.5
hours + 172.5 hours + 1,650 hours) and the average annual burden per
transfer agent is approximately 4.3 hours (1,842 / 429).
Written comments are invited on: (a) Whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of
the functions of the Commission, including whether the information
shall have practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the Commission's
estimates of the burden of the proposed collection of information; (c)
ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information on
respondents; and (d) ways to minimize the burden of the collection of
