Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 167 / Monday, August 29, 2016 / Notices
Commission has received no comments
on the proposed rule change.
Section 19(b)(2) of the Act 5 provides
that, within 45 days of the publication
of notice of the filing of a proposed rule
change, or within such longer period up
to 90 days as the Commission may
designate if it finds such longer period
to be appropriate and publishes its
reasons for so finding or as to which the
self-regulatory organization consents,
the Commission shall either approve the
proposed rule change, disapprove the
proposed rule change, or institute
proceedings to determine whether the
proposed rule change should be
disapproved. The 45th day after
publication of the notice for this
proposed rule change is August 28,
2016. The Commission is extending this
45-day time period.
The Commission finds that it is
appropriate to designate a longer period
within which to take action on the
proposed rule change so that it has
sufficient time to consider the proposed
rule change. Accordingly, the
Commission, pursuant to Section
19(b)(2) of the Act,6 designates October
12, 2016, as the date by which the
Commission should either approve or
disapprove or institute proceedings to
determine whether to disapprove the
proposed rule change (File Number SR–
NYSE–2016–44).
For the Commission, by the Division of
Trading and Markets, pursuant to delegated
authority.7

Deputy Secretary.

(4) noted that ‘‘for new ETPs to be traded pursuant
to UTP, which are listed and traded on another
exchange pursuant to Rule 19b–4(e), the Exchange
would be required to file Form 19b–4(e) with the
Commission in accordance with the requirements
therein.’’ Amendment No. 1 to the proposed rule
change is available at: https://www.sec.gov/
comments/sr-nyse-2016-44/nyse201644-1.pdf.
Because Amendment No. 1 to the proposed rule
change does not materially alter the substance of
the proposed rule change or raise unique or novel
regulatory issues, Amendment No. 1 is not subject
to notice and comment.

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 15F (17 CFR 249.324) is filed by
a foreign private issuer when
terminating its Exchange Act reporting
obligations pursuant to Exchange Act
Rule 12h–6 (17 CFR 240.12h–6). Form
15F requires a foreign private issuer to
disclose information that helps
investors understand the foreign private
issuer’s decision to terminate its
Exchange Act reporting obligations and
assists the Commission staff in
determining whether the filer is eligible
to terminate its Exchange Act reporting
obligations pursuant to Rule 12h–6.
Rule 12h–6 provides a process for a
foreign private issuer to exit the
Exchange Act registration and reporting
regime when there is relatively little
U.S. investor interest in its securities.
Rule 12h–6 is intended to remove a
disincentive for foreign private issuers
to register their securities with the
Commission by lessening concerns that
the Exchange Act registration and
reporting system would be difficult to
exit once an issuer enters it. We
estimate that Form 15F takes
approximately 30 hours to prepare and
is filed by approximately 30 issuers. We
estimate that 25% of the 30 hours per
response (7.5 hours per response) is
prepared by the filer for a total annual
reporting burden of 225 hours (7.5 hours
per response × 30 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
information on respondents, including
through the use of automated collection
techniques or other forms of information
technology. Consideration will be given
to comments and suggestions submitted
in writing within 60 days of this
publication.

Notice is hereby given that, pursuant
to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), the Securities

(‘‘Commission’’) is soliciting comments
on the collection of information
summarized below. The Commission

Regulation 12B (17 CFR 240.12b–1
through 12b–37) under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 (15 U.S.C. 78a et
seq.) (‘‘Exchange Act’’) includes rules
governing the registration and periodic
reporting requirements under Sections
12(b), 12(g), 13, and 15(d) (15 U.S.C.
78l(b), 78l(g), 78m and 78o(d)) of the
Exchange Act. The purpose of the
regulation is to set forth guidelines for
the uniform preparation of Exchange
Act registration statements and reports.
Regulation 12B is assigned one burden
hour for administrative convenience
because the regulation simply prescribes
the disclosure that must appear in other
filings under the federal securities laws.
Written comments are invited on: (a)
Whether this proposed collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the

information will have practical utility;
