Submission for OMB Review; 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 8-A

    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 8-A (17 CFR 249.208a) is a registration statement used to 
register a class of securities under Section 12(b) or Section 12(g) of 
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (15 U.S.C. 78l(b) and 78l(g)) 
(``Exchange Act''). Section 12(a) (15 U.S.C. 78l(a)) of the Exchange 
Act makes it unlawful for any member, broker, or dealer to effect any 
transaction in any security (other than an exempted security) on a 
national securities exchange unless such security has been registered 
under the Exchange Act (15 U.S.C. 78a et seq.). Exchange Act Section 
12(b) establishes the registration procedures. Exchange Act Section 
12(g) requires an issuer that is not a bank or bank holding company to 
register a class of equity securities (other than exempted securities) 
within 120 days after its fiscal year end if, on the last day of its 
fiscal year, the issuer has total assets of more than $10 million and 
the class of equity securities is ``held of record'' by either (i) 
2,000 persons, or (ii) 500 persons who are not accredited investors. An 
issuer that is a bank or a bank holding company, must register a class 
of equity securities (other than exempted securities) within 120 days 
after the last day of its first fiscal year ended after the effective 
date of the JOBS Act if, on the last day of its fiscal year, the issuer 
has total assets of more than $10 million and the class of equity 
securities is ``held of record'' by 2,000 or more persons. The 
information must be filed with the Commission on occasion. Form 8-A is 
a public document. Form 8-A takes approximately 3 hours to prepare and 
is filed by approximately 1,376 respondents for a total annual 
reporting burden of 4,128 hours (3 hours per response x 1,376 
responses).
    An agency may conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to 
respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a currently 
valid control number.
    The public may view background documentation for this information 
collection at the following website: <a href="http://www.reginfo.gov">www.reginfo.gov</a>. Find this 
particular information collection by selecting ``Currently under 30-day 
Review--Open for Public Comments'' or by using the search function.

collection should be sent within 30 days of publication of this notice 
by June 13, 2022 to (i) <a href="http://www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain">www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain</a> and (ii)

Exchange Commission, c/o John Pezzullo, 100 F Street NE, Washington, DC
