SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION


Proposed Collection; Comment Request

Upon Written Request, Copies Available From: Securities and Exchange 
Commission, Office of Investor Education and Advocacy, Washington, DC 
20549-0213
Extension:
    Form TH, OMB Control No. 3235-0425, SEC File No. 270-377.
    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.
    Form TH (17 CFR 239.65, 249.447, 269.10 and 274.404) under the 
Securities Act of 1933 (15 U.S.C. 77a et seq.), the Securities Exchange 
Act of 1934 (15 U.S.C. 78a et seq.), the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 
(15 U.S.C. 77aaa et seq.) and the Investment Company Act of 1940 (15 
U.S.C. 80a-1 et seq.) is used by registrants to notify the Commission 
that an electronic filer is relying on the temporary hardship exemption 
for the filing of a document in paper form that would otherwise be 
required to be filed electronically as prescribed by Rule 201(a) of 
Regulation S-T. Form TH must be filed every time an electronic filer 
experiences unanticipated technical difficulties preventing the timely 
preparation and submission of a required electronic filing. 
Approximately 70 registrants file Form TH and it takes an estimated 
0.33 hours per response for a total annual burden of 23 hours.
    Written comments are invited on: (a) Whether the 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. Consideration will 
be given to comments and suggestions submitted in writing within 60 
days of this publication.
    Please direct your written comments to Thomas Bayer, Director/Chief 
Information Officer, Securities and Exchange Commission, c/o Remi 
Pavlik-Simon, 6432 General Green Way, Alexandria, Virginia 22312; or
