SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[OMB Control No. 3235-0550]


Agency Information Collection Activities; Submission for OMB 
Review; Comment Request; Extension: Securities Act Rule 477

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.
    Rule 477 (17 CFR 230.477) under the Securities Act of 1933 (15 
U.S.C. 77a et seq.) sets forth procedures for withdrawing a 
registration statement, including any amendments or exhibits to the 
registration statement. The rule provides that a registrant must sign 
any application for withdrawal and must state fully in it the grounds 
on which the registrant makes the application. The rule further 
provides that the registrant must state in the application that no 
securities were sold in connection with the offering. Rule 477's 
information collection requirements help to ensure that the Commission 
has sufficient information regarding a registrant's application to 
withdraw a registration statement to determine whether to grant such 
application (based on whether such withdrawal is consistent with the 
public interest and the protection of investors). The information 
required by Rule 477 is mandatory and is publicly available on the 
Commission's Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis, and Retrieval 
(``EDGAR'') system. We estimate that approximately 548 registrants file 
a withdrawal application under Rule 477, once per year each, for a 
total estimate of 548 responses annually. We estimate that Rule 477 
requires one burden hour per response for a total annual burden of 
approximately 548 hours. We estimate that registrants carry 100% of the 
burdens associated with Rule 477 internally and, therefore, that there 
is no cost burden associated with Rule 477.
    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.
    The public may view and comment on this information collection

Assistant Secretary.
