78m(e)(6), 78n(g)(5), 78n(g)(6), 78ee(j)(1), and 

78ee(j)(3). Section 31(j)(2) of the Exchange Act, 15 

U.S.C. 78ee(j)(2), also requires the Commission, in 

specified circumstances, to make a mid-year 

adjustment to the fee rates under Sections 31(b) and 

(c) of the Exchange Act in fiscal years 2002 through 

2011. 

7The annual adjustments are designed to adjust 

the fee rate in a given fiscal year so that, when 

applied to the aggregate maximum offering price at 

which securities are proposed to be offered for the 

fiscal year, it is reasonably likely to produce total 

fee collections under Section 6(b) equal to the 

‘‘target offsetting collection amount’’ specified in 

Section 6(b)(11)(A) for that fiscal year.

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE 

COMMISSION 

[Release Nos. 33–9122; 34–62005/April 29, 

2010] 

Order Making Fiscal Year 2011 Annual 

Adjustments to the Fee Rates 

Applicable Under Section 6(b) of the 

Securities Act of 1933 and Sections 

13(e), 14(g), 31(b), and 31(c) of the 

Securities Exchange Act of 1934 

I. Background 

The Commission collects fees under 

various provisions of the securities 

laws. Section 6(b) of the Securities Act 

of 1933 (‘‘Securities Act’’) requires the 

Commission to collect fees from issuers 

on the registration of securities.1 Section 

13(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 

1934 (‘‘Exchange Act’’) requires the 

Commission to collect fees on specified 

repurchases of securities.2 Section 14(g) 

of the Exchange Act requires the 

Commission to collect fees on proxy 

solicitations and statements in corporate 

control transactions.3 Finally, Sections 

31(b) and (c) of the Exchange Act 

require national securities exchanges 

and national securities associations, 

respectively, to pay fees to the 

Commission on transactions in specified 

securities.4

The Investor and Capital Markets Fee 

Relief Act (‘‘Fee Relief Act’’) 5 amended 

Section 6(b) of the Securities Act and 

Sections 13(e), 14(g), and 31 of the 

Exchange Act to require the 

Commission to make annual 

adjustments to the fee rates applicable 

under these sections for each of the 

fiscal years 2003 through 2011, and one 

final adjustment to fix the fee rates 

under these sections for fiscal year 2012 

and beyond.6

II. Fiscal Year 2011 Annual Adjustment 

to the Fee Rates Applicable Under 

Section 6(b) of the Securities Act and 

Sections 13(e) and 14(g) of the Exchange 

Act 

Section 6(b)(5) of the Securities Act 

requires the Commission to make an 

annual adjustment to the fee rate 

applicable under Section 6(b) of the 

Securities Act in each of the fiscal years 

2003 through 2011.7 In those same fiscal 

years, Sections 13(e)(5) and 14(g)(5) of 

the Exchange Act require the 

Commission to adjust the fee rates 

under Sections 13(e) and 14(g) to a rate 

that is equal to the rate that is applicable 

under Section 6(b). In other words, the 

annual adjustment to the fee rate under 

Section 6(b) of the Securities Act also 

sets the annual adjustment to the fee 

rates under Sections 13(e) and 14(g) of 

the Exchange Act.
