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’’) has submitted to the
Office of Management and Budget
(‘‘OMB’’) a request for approval of
extension of the previously approved
collection of information provided for in
Rule 17a–5(c), (17 CFR 240.17a–5(c)),
VerDate Sep<11>2014

under the Securities Exchange Act of
1934 (15 U.S.C. 78a et seq.).
Rule 17a–5(c) generally requires
broker-dealers who carry customer
accounts to provide statements of the
broker-dealer’s financial condition to
their customers. Paragraph (c)(5) of Rule
17a–5 provides a conditional exemption
from this requirement. A broker-dealer
that elects to take advantage of the
exemption must publish its statements
on its website in a prescribed manner,
and must maintain a toll-free number
that customers can call to request a copy
of the statements.
The purpose of the Rule is to ensure
that customers of broker-dealers are
provided with information concerning
the financial condition of the firm that
may be holding the customers’ cash and
securities. The Commission, when
adopting the Rule in 1972, stated that
the goal was to ‘‘directly’’ send a
customer essential information so that
the customer could ‘‘judge whether his
broker or dealer is financially sound.’’
The Commission adopted the Rule in
response to the failure of several brokerdealers holding customer funds and
securities in the period between 1968
and 1971.
The Commission estimates that
approximately 163 broker-dealer
respondents carrying approximately 186
million public customer accounts incur
a burden of approximately 228,024
hours per year to comply with the Rule.
An agency may not conduct or
sponsor, and a person is not required to
respond to, a collection of information
under the PRA unless it displays a
currently valid OMB control number.

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.
Form TH (17 CFR 239.65, 17 CFR
249.447, 269.10 and 17 CFR 274.404)
under the Securities Act of 1933 (15
U.S.C. 77a et seq.), the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 (15 U.S.C. 78a et
seq.), the Trust Indenture Act of 1939
(15 U.S.C. 77aaa et seq.) and the
Investment Company Act of 1940 (15
U.S.C. 80a–1 et seq.) is used by
registrants to notify the Commission
that an electronic filer is relying on the
temporary hardship exemption for the
filing of a document in paper form that
would otherwise be required to be filed
electronically as required by Rule 201(a)
of Regulation S–T. (17 CFR. 232.201(a)).
Form TH is a public document and is
filed on occasion. Form TH must be
filed every time an electronic filer
experiences unanticipated technical
difficulties preventing the timely
preparation and submission of a
required electronic filing.
Approximately 5 registrants file Form
TH and it takes an estimated 0.33 hours
per response for a total annual burden
of 2 hours (0.33 hours per response × 5
responses).
An agency may not conduct or
sponsor, and a person is not required to
respond to, a collection of information

ADV–E
Upon Written Request, Copies Available

Commission, Office of FOIA Services,

20549–2736
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 (the
‘‘Commission’’) has submitted to the
Office of Management and Budget a
request for extension of the previously
approved collection of information
discussed below.
Form ADV–E (17 CFR 279.8) is the
cover sheet for certificates of accounting
filed pursuant to rule 206(4)–2 under
the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 (17
CFR 275.206(4)–2). The rule further
requires that the public accountant file
with the Commission a Form ADV–E
and accompanying statement within
four business days of the resignation,
dismissal, removal or other termination
of its engagement.
The Commission has estimated that
compliance with the requirement to
complete Form ADV–E imposes a total
burden of approximately 0.05 hours (3
minutes) per respondent. Based on
current information from advisers
registered with the Commission, the
Commission staff estimates that 1,743
filings will be submitted with respect to
surprise examinations and 33 filings
will be submitted with respect to
termination of accountants. Based on
these estimates, the total estimated
annual burden would be 88.80 hours
((1,743 filings × .05 hours) + (33 filings
× .05 hours)).
The information provided on Form
ADV–E is mandatory. Responses will
not be kept confidential. An agency may
not conduct or sponsor a collection of
information unless it displays a
