Regulation D Rule 504(b)(3)—Felons and
Other Bad Actors Disclosure Statement,
SEC File No. 270–798, OMB Control No.
3235–0746
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’’) has submitted to the
Office of Management and Budget this
request for extension of the previously
approved collection of information
discussed below.
Regulation D Rule 504(b)(3) provides
that no exemption under Rule 504 shall
be available for the securities of any
issuer if such issuer would be subject to
disqualification under Rule 506(d) of
Regulation D on or after January 20,
2017; provided that disclosure of prior
‘‘bad actor’’ events shall be required in
accordance with Rule 506(e) of
Regulation D. Rule 504(b)(3) requires
the issuer in a Rule 504 offering to
furnish to each purchaser, a reasonable
time prior to sale, a written description
of any disqualifying events that
occurred before effectiveness of the
amendments to Rule 504 (i.e., before
January 20, 2017) and within the time
periods described in the list of
5 15
6 17
PO 00000
disqualification events set forth in Rule
506(d)(1) of Regulation D, for the issuer
or any other ‘‘covered person’’
associated with the offering.
Approximately 800 issuers relying on
Rule 504 of Regulation D will spend on
average one additional hour to conduct
a factual inquiry to determine whether
any covered persons had a disqualifying
event that occurred before the effective
date of the amendments for a total of
800 hours. In addition, approximately
eight issuers (or approximately 1% of
800 issuers) will spend ten hours to
prepare a disclosure statement
describing matters that would have
triggered disqualification under Rule
504(b)(3) of Regulation D had they
occurred on or after the effective date of
the amendments (January 20, 2017) for
total burden 80 hours (8 issuers × 10
hours per response).
For Purposes of the PRA, we estimate
the total paperwork burden for all
affected Rule 504 issuers to comply with
Rule 504(b)(3) requirements would be
approximately 808 issuers and a total of
880 burden hours.
An agency may not conduct or
sponsor, and a person is not required to
respond to, a collection of information
unless it displays a currently valid
control number.

collection at the following website,
