provisions of Section 12(d) of the Act
and Rule 12d2–2 thereunder.3 During
the continuance of such suspension
under Rule 12d2–1, the exchange is
required to notify the Commission
promptly of any change in the reasons
for the suspension. Upon the restoration
to trading of any security suspended
under Rule 12d2–1, the exchange must
notify the Commission promptly of the
effective date of such restoration.
The trading suspension notices serve
a number of purposes. First, they inform
the Commission that an exchange has
suspended from trading a listed security
or reintroduced trading in a previously
suspended security. They also provide
the Commission with information
necessary for it to determine that the
suspension has been accomplished in
accordance with the rules of the
exchange, and to verify that the
exchange has not evaded the
requirements of Section 12(d) of the Act
and Rule 12d2–2 thereunder by
improperly employing a trading
suspension. Without Rule 12d2–1, the
Commission would be unable to fully
implement these statutory
responsibilities.
There are 24 national securities
exchanges 4 that are subject to Rule
12d2–1. The burden of complying with
Rule 12d2–1 is not evenly distributed
among the exchanges, however, since
there are many more securities listed on
the New York Stock Exchange, Inc., the
NASDAQ Stock Market, and NYSE
American LLC than on the other
exchanges.5 There are approximately
878 responses 6 under Rule 12d2–1 for
the purpose of suspension of trading
from the national securities exchanges
each year, and the resultant aggregate
annual reporting hour burden would be,
assuming on average one-half reporting
hour per response, 439 annual burden
hours for all exchanges. The related
internal compliance costs associated
3 Rule 12d2–2 prescribes the circumstances under
which a security may be delisted from an exchange
and withdrawn from registration under Section
12(b) of the Act, and provides the procedures for
taking such action.
4 The Exchanges are BOX Exchange LLC, Cboe
BYX Exchange, Inc., Cboe BZX Exchange, Inc., Cboe
C2 Exchange, Inc., Cboe EDGA Exchange, Inc., Cboe
EDGX Exchange, Inc., Cboe Exchange, Inc.,
Investors Exchange LLC, Long Term Stock
Exchange, Inc., MEMX, LLC, Miami International
Securities Exchange, MIAX Emerald, LLC, MIAX
PEARL, LLC, Nasdaq BX, Inc., Nasdaq GEMX, LLC,
Nasdaq ISE, LLC, Nasdaq MRX, LLC, Nasdaq PHLX
LLC, The Nasdaq Stock Market, New York Stock
Exchange LLC, NYSE Arca, Inc., NYSE Chicago,
Inc., NYSE American LLC, NYSE National, Inc.
5 In fact, some exchanges do not file any trading
suspension reports in a given year.
6 The 878 figure was calculated by averaging the
numbers for compliance in 2019 and 2020, which
are 822 and 933, respectively.

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–5—Disclosure
of Compensation to Associated Persons
in Connection with Penny Stock
Transactions—(17 CFR 240.15g–5)
under the Securities Exchange Act of
1934 (15 U.S.C. 78a et seq.). The
Commission plans to submit this
PO 00000
existing collection of information to the
Office of Management and Budget
(‘‘OMB’’) for extension and approval.
Rule 15g–5 requires brokers and
dealers to disclose to customers the
amount of compensation to be received
by their sales agents in connection with
penny stock transactions. 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 178 broker-dealers will
spend an average of approximately 87
hours annually to comply with the rule.
Thus, the total time burden is
approximately 15,486 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
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 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.
