SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION
[OMB Control No. 3235-0376]
Agency Information Collection Activities; Proposed Collection;
Comment Request; Extension: Schedule 14D-1F-Tender Offer Statement
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'') 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.
Schedule 14D-1F (17 CFR 240.14d-102) is a form that may be used by
any person (the ``bidder'') making a cash tender or exchange offer for
securities of any issuer (the ``target'') incorporated or organized
under the laws of Canada or any Canadian province or territory that is
a foreign private issuer, where less than 40% of the outstanding class
of the target's securities that is the subject of the offer is held by
U.S. holders. Schedule 14D-1F is designed to facilitate cross-border
transactions in the securities of Canadian issuers. The information
required to be filed with the Commission provides security holders with
material information regarding the bidder as well as the transaction so
that they may make informed investment decisions. We estimate that
Schedule 14D-1F takes approximately 3.5 hours per response to prepare
and is filed once per year by approximately 2 bidders. We estimate that
100% of the burden is carried out internally by the bidder. Based on
our estimates, we calculate a total annual reporting burden of 7 hours
((3.5 hours per response x 100%) x 2 responses per year). Because we
estimate that 100% of the burden will be carried internally by the
bidder, we estimate that there is no cost burden associated with
Schedule 14D-1F.
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 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.
Please direct your written comments on this 60-Day Collection

Exchange Commission, c/o Tanya Ruttenberg via email to
