SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[OMB Control No. 3235-0757]


Agency Information Collection Activities; Proposed Collection; 
Comment Request; Extension: Rule 147A(f)(1)(iii) Written Representation 
as to Purchaser Residency

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.
    Rule 147A (17 CFR 230.147A) provides an exemption from registration 
under Section 5 of the Securities Act of 1933 for certain intrastate 
offerings. Rule 147A is intended to facilitate intrastate and regional 
securities offerings. Among other things, Rule 147A(f)(1)(iii) requires 
issuers relying on the rule to ``obtain a written representation from 
each purchaser as to his or her residence.'' The written representation 
required under Rule 147A(f)(1)(iii) is intended to help ensure that the 
issuer's offering is, in fact, an intrastate offering. Approximately 
700 respondents provide the information required by Rule 
147A(f)(1)(iii) annually at an estimated 2.75 hours per response and 
$150 per response for a total annual reporting burden of 1,925 hours 
(2.75 hours per response x 700 responses annually) and a total annual 
cost burden of $105,000 ($150 per response x 700 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 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 
Notice to Austin Gerig, Director/Chief Data Officer, Securities and 
Exchange Commission, c/o Tanya Ruttenberg via email to 
<a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#adfdccddc8dfdac2dfc6ffc8c9d8ced9c4c2c3ecced9eddec8ce83cac2db"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="92c2f3e2f7e0e5fde0f9c0f7f6e7f1e6fbfdfcd3f1e6d2e1f7f1bcf5fde4">[email&#160;protected]</span></a> by June 26, 2026. There will be a second 
opportunity to comment on this SEC request following the Federal 
Register publishing a 30-Day Submission Notice.

    Dated: April 23, 2026.
Sherry R. Haywood,
Assistant Secretary.
