*Upon Written Request, Copies Available From:*                     U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, Office of Investor Education and Advocacy, Washington, DC 20549-0213.                

*Extension:*

Rule 104; SEC File No. 270-411; OMB Control No. 3235-0465.

                    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 (“OMB”) a request for approval of extension of the existing collection of information provided for in the following rule: Rule 104 of Regulation M (17 CFR 242.104).                

                    Rule 104 permits stabilizing by a distribution participant during a distribution so long as the distribution participant discloses information to the market and investors. This rule requires disclosure in offering materials of the potential stabilizing transactions and that the distribution participant inform the market when a stabilizing bid is made. It also requires the distribution participants (                    *i.e.*                     the syndicate manager) to maintain information regarding syndicate covering transactions and penalty bids.                

                    There are approximately 745 respondents per year that require an aggregate total of 149 hours to comply with this rule. Each respondent makes an estimated 1 annual response. Each response takes approximately 0.20 hours (12 minutes) to complete. Thus, the total compliance burden per year is 149 burden hours. The total internal labor compliance cost for the respondents is approximately $9,983.00, resulting in an estimate of $13.40 (                    *i.e.,*                     $9,983.00/745 responses) 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 control number. Background documentation for this information collection may be viewed at the following link,                     *http://www.reginfo.gov.*

                    Comments should be directed to (i) Desk Officer for the Securities and Exchange Commission, Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, Office of Management and Budget, Room 10102, New Executive Office Building, Washington, DC 20503 or by sending an e-mail to:                     *Shagufta_Ahmed@omb.eop.gov;*                     and (ii) Thomas Bayer, Chief Information Officer, Securities and Exchange Commission, c/o Remi Pavlik-Simon, 6432 General Green Way, Alexandria, VA 22312 or send an e-mail to:                     *PRA_Mailbox@sec.gov.*                     Comments must be submitted within 30 days of this notice.
