SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION
[OMB Control No. 3235-0404]
Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request; Extension: Form F-
80--Canadian Securities
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 (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 F-80 (17 CFR 239.41) is a registration form used by certain
large, publicly traded Canadian issuers to register securities to be
issued in an exchange offer or in connection with a business
combination requiring the vote of shareholders of the participating
companies. The information collected is intended to provide U.S.
investors in relevant Canadian securities with material information
concerning the registered securities and the Canadian foreign private
issuer(s) so that investors can make informed voting and investment
decisions. The information required by Form F-80 is mandatory, and the
information is made publicly available on EDGAR.
We estimate that Form F-80 takes approximately 2 hours per response
and is filed by approximately 4 respondents annually. The estimated
burden of 2 hours per response is based upon the amount of time
necessary to compile the registration statement using the existing
Canadian disclosure document(s) plus any additional information
required by the Commission. We estimate that 100% of the burden is
carried by outside professionals retained by the company to assist in
the preparation of the form, and thus that 0% of the burden is carried
out internally by the company. We estimate a cost of $600 per hour for
outside professionals used in connection with public company reporting.
Based on our estimates, we calculate a total annual reporting burden of
zero hours ((2 hours per response x 0%) x 4 responses annually) and a
total annual cost burden of $4,800 ($600 per hour x (2 hours per
response x 100%) x 4 responses annually).
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 OMB Control Number.
Written comments are invited on: (a) whether this proposed
collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of
the functions of the SEC, including whether the information will have
practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the SEC's estimate of the burden
imposed by the proposed collection of information, including the
validity of the methodology and the assumptions used; (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,
electronic collection techniques or other forms of information
technology.
The public may view and comment on this information collection
