SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[OMB Control No. 3235-0621]


Agency Information Collection Activities; Submission for OMB 
Review; Comment Request; Extension: Form 15F

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 15F (17 CFR 249.324) is filed by a foreign private issuer when 
terminating or suspending its Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 
(``Exchange Act'') reporting obligations. Form 15F requires a foreign 
private issuer to disclose information that helps investors understand 
the foreign private issuer's decision to terminate or suspend its 
Exchange Act reporting obligations and assists the Commission staff in 
determining whether the issuer is eligible to terminate or suspend its 
Exchange Act reporting obligations. The information required by Form 
15F is mandatory, and Form 15F is publicly available on the 
Commission's Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis, and Retrieval 
(``EDGAR'') system. We estimate that Form 15F takes approximately 30 
hours to prepare and is filed once per year by approximately 23 foreign 
private issuers, for a total of approximately 23 responses annually. We 
estimate that 25% of the 30 hours per response (7.5 hours per response) 
is carried internally by the issuer for a total annual reporting burden 
of 173 hours (7.5 hours per response x 23 responses). We estimate that 
75% of the 30 hours per response (22.5 hours per response) is carried 
externally by outside professionals retained by the issuer at an 
estimated rate of $600 per hour for a total annual cost burden of 
$310,500 ($600 per hour x 22.5 hours per response x 23 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.
    The public may view and comment on this information collection
