SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Form 6-K; OMB Control No. 3235-0116; SEC File No. 270-107]


Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request

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

    Extension:
    Form 6-K; OMB Control No. 3235-0116; SEC File No. 270-107.

    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 the request for extension of the previously approved 
collection of information discussed below.
    Form 6-K (17 CFR 249.306) is a disclosure document under the 
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (15 U.S.C. 78a et seq.) that must be 
filed by a foreign private issuer to report material information 
promptly after the occurrence of specified or other important corporate 
events that are disclosed in the foreign private issuer's home country. 
The purpose of Form 6-K is to ensure that U.S. investors have access to 
the same information that foreign investors do when making investment 
decisions. Form 6-K is a public document and all information provided 
is mandatory. Form 6-K takes approximately 8.7 hours per response and 
is filed by approximately 12,022 issuers annually. We estimate 75% of 
the 8.7 hours per response (6.525 hours) is prepared by the issuer for 
a total annual reporting burden of 78,444 hours (6.525 hours per 
response x 12,022 responses). The remaining burden hours are reflected 
as a cost to the foreign private issuers.
    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. The Federal Register notice with a 60-
day comment period soliciting comments on this collection of 
information was published on October 14, 2010 (75 FR 63215). No 
comments were received.
    The public may view the background documentation for this 
information collection at the following Web site, 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-
