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.
Rule 236 (17 CFR 230.236) under the Securities Act of 1933 (15
U.S.C. 77a et seq.) (``Securities Act'') provides an exemption from
registration under the
[[Page 27822]]
Securities Act for the offering of shares of stock or similar
securities to provide funds to be distributed to security holders in
lieu of fractional shares, scrip certificates or order forms, in
connection with a stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split,
conversion, merger or similar transaction. Issuers wishing to rely upon
the exemption are required to furnish specified information to the
Commission at least 10 days prior to the offering. The information is
needed to provide notice that the issuer is relying on the exemption.
Public companies are the likely respondents. All information provided
to the Commission is available to the public for review upon request.
Approximately 10 respondents file the information required by Rule 236
at an estimated 1.5 hours per response for a total annual reporting
burden of 15 hours (1.5 hours per response x 10 responses).
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.
