SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION
[OMB Control No. 3235-0655]
Agency Information Collection Activities; Proposed Collection;
Comment Request; Extension: Regulation 14N and Schedule 14N
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.
Regulation 14N (17 CFR 240.14n-1 through 240.14n-3) and Schedule
14N (17 CFR 240.14n-101) requires the filing of certain information
with the Commission by shareholders who submit a nominee or nominees
for director pursuant to applicable state law, or a company's governing
documents. Schedule 14N provides notice to the company of the
shareholder's or shareholder group's intent to have the company include
the shareholder's or shareholder group's nominee or nominees for
director in the company's proxy materials. This information is intended
to assist shareholders in making an informed voting decision with
regards to any nominee or nominees put forth by a nominating
shareholder or group, by allowing shareholders to gauge the nominating
shareholder's interest in the company, longevity of ownership, and
intent with regard to continued ownership in the company. We estimate
that Schedule TO is filed once per year by one respondent, for an
estimated total of one response annually. We estimate that Schedule 14N
requires approximately 30 burden hours per response and approximately
$6,000 cost burden per response, for an estimated total annual
reporting burden of 30 hours (30 burden hours per response x one
response) and an estimated total annual cost burden of $6,000 (one
response x $6,000 per response).
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
