Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 53 / Thursday, March 19, 2015 / Notices 14429 

Notice is hereby given that pursuant 

to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 

(’’PRA’’) (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 Rule 15g3—Broker or dealer disclosure of 

quotations and other information 

relating to the penny stock market (17 

CFR 240.15g-3) under the Securities 

Exchange Act of 1934 (15 U.S.C. 78a et 

seq.). 

Rule 15g-3 requires that brokers and 

dealers disclose to customers current 

quotation prices or similar market 

information in connection with 

transactions in penny stocks. The 

purpose of the rule is to increase the 

level of disclosure to investors 

concerning penny stocks generally and 

specific penny stock transactions. 

The Commission estimates that 

approximately 221 broker-dealers will 

spend an average of 87 hours annually 

to comply with this rule. Thus, the total 

compliance burden is approximately 

19,245 burden-hours per year. 

Rule 15g-3 contains record retention 

requirements. Compliance with the rule 

is mandatory. The required records are 

available only to the examination staff 

of the Commission and the self 

regulatory organizations of which the 

broker-dealer is a member. 

An agency may not conduct or 

sponsor, and a person is not required to 

respond to, a collection of information 

under the PRA unless it displays a 

currently valid OMB control number. 

The public may view background 

documentation for this information 

collection at the following Web site: 

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
