*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.                

                    Securities Act Rule 173 (17 CFR 230.173) provides a notice of registration to investors who purchased securities in a registered offering under the Securities Act of 1933 (15 U.S.C. 77a*et seq.*). A Rule 173 notice must be provided by each underwriter or dealer to each investor who purchased securities from the underwriter or dealer. The Rule 173 notice is not publicly available. We estimate that it takes approximately 0.0167 hour per response to provide the information required under Rule 173 and that the information is filed by approximately 5,720 respondents approximately 43,546 times a year for a total of 249,083,120 responses. We estimate that the total annual reporting burden for Rule 173 is 4,159,688 hours (0.0167 hours per response × 249,083,120 responses).                          ( print page 85938)    

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 public may view background documentation for this information collection at the following website:                     *www.reginfo.gov.*                     Find this particular information collection by selecting “Currently under 30-day Review—Open for Public Comments” or by using the search function.
