SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This ICR seeks to extend PRA authority for
the Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption for Cross-Trades of
Securities by Index and Model-Driven Funds information collection.
Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption 2002-12 permits cross-trades of
securities between index and model-driven funds managed by investment
managers and among such funds and certain large accounts to which such
investment managers act as a trading adviser in connection with a
specific portfolio-restructuring program. To ensure managers have
complied with exemption requirements, the DOL has included in the
exemption certain recordkeeping and disclosure obligations designed to
safeguard plan assets by periodically providing information to plan
fiduciaries, which generally must be independent about the cross-
trading program. Employee Retirement Income Security Act section 408(a)
authorizes this information collection. See 29 U.S.C. 1108(a).
This information collection is subject to the PRA. A Federal agency
generally cannot conduct or sponsor a collection of information, and
the public is generally not required to respond to an information
collection, unless it is approved by the OMB under the PRA and displays
a currently valid OMB Control Number. In addition, notwithstanding any
other provisions of law, no person shall generally be subject to
penalty for failing to comply with a collection of information that
does not display a valid Control Number. See 5 CFR 1320.5(a) and

under Control Number 1210-0115.
OMB authorization for an ICR cannot be for more than three (3)
years without renewal, and the current approval for this collection is
scheduled to expire on October 31, 2015. The DOL seeks to extend PRA
authorization for this information collection for three (3) more years,
without any change to existing requirements. The DOL notes that
existing information collection requirements submitted to the OMB
receive a month-to-month extension while they undergo review. For
additional substantive information about this ICR, see the related
notice published in the Federal Register on June 17, 2015 (80 FR
34696).

burden of the proposed collection of information, including the
validity of the methodology and assumptions used;
Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the
