Proposed Collection; Comment Request

Upon Written Request Copies Available From: Securities and Exchange 
Commission, Office of FOIA Services, 100 F Street NE, Washington, DC 
20549-2736

Extension:
    Form F-X

    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 F-X (17 CFR 239.42) is used to appoint an agent for service of 
process by Canadian issuers registering securities on Forms F-7, F-8, 
F-9 or F-10 under the Securities Act of 1933(15 U.S.C. 77a et seq.), or 
filing periodic reports on Form 40-F under the Exchange Act of 1934(15 
U.S.C. 78a et seq.). The information collected must be filed with the 
Commission and is publicly available. We estimate that it takes 
approximately 2 hours per response to prepare Form F-X and that the 
information is filed by approximately 114 respondents for a total 
annual reporting burden of 228 hours (2 hours per response x 114 
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.
    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.
    Please direct your written comment to David Bottom, Director/Chief 
Information Officer, Securities and Exchange Commission, c/o Cynthia 
Roscoe, 100 F Street NE, Washington, DC 20549 or send an email to:

Assistant Secretary.
