SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION
[SEC File No. 270-427, OMB Control No. 3235-0476]
Proposed Collection; Comment Request; Extension: Rule 10b-17
Upon Written Request, Copies Available From: Securities and Exchange
Commission, Office of FOIA Services, 100 F Street NE, Washington, DC
20549-2736
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 10b-17 (17 CFR 240.10b-
17), under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (15 U.S.C. 78a et seq.).
The Commission plans to submit this existing collection of information
to the Office of Management and Budget (``OMB'') for extension and
approval.
Rule 10b-17 requires any issuer of a class of securities publicly
traded by the use of any means or instrumentality of interstate
commerce or of the mails or of any facility of any national securities
exchange to give notice of the following specific distributions
relating to such class of securities: (1) a dividend or other
distribution in cash or in kind other than interest payments on debt
securities; (2) a stock split or reverse stock split; or (3) a rights
or other subscription offering.
There are approximately 7,588 respondents per year. These
respondents make approximately 29,952 responses per year. Each response
takes approximately 10 minutes to complete. Thus, the total hour burden
per year is approximately 4,992 hours. The total internal labor cost of
compliance for respondents associated with providing notice under Rule
10b-17 is approximately $431,258.88.
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 to
be 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 by
October 10, 2023.
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.
Please direct your written comments to: David Bottom, Director/
Chief Information Officer, Securities and Exchange Commission, c/o John
Pezzullo, 100 F Street NE, Washington, DC 20549, or send an email to:
