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

requests for extension of the previously

Rule 12g3–2 (OMB 3235–0119; SEC

File No. 270–104) provides an

exemption from Section 12(g) of the

Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (Act)

for foreign private issuers. Rule 12g3–2

is designated to provide investors in

foreign securities with information

about such securities and the foreign

issuer. It affects approximately 1, 800

foreign issuer respondents at an

estimated one burden hour per response

for a total annual burden of 1,800 hours.

All information required by Rule 12g3–

2 is available to the public. All

information provided under Rule 12g3–

2 is mandatory.

Rules 7a–15 through 7a–37 (OMB

3235–0132; SEC File No. 270–115) sets

forth the general requirements relating

to applications, statements and reports

that must be filed under the Trust

Indenture Act of 1939 by issuers and

trustees qualifying indentures for

offerings of debt securities. Rules 7a–15

through 7a–37 are disclosure guidelines

and do not directly result in any

collection of information. The

respondents are persons and entities

subject to Trust Indenture Act

requirements. No information collection

burdens are imposed directly by these

rules so they are assigned only one

burden hour for administrative

convenience.

Rule 13e–1 (OMB 3235–0305; SEC

File No. 270–255) makes it unlawful for

an issuer who has received notice that

it is subject of a tender offer made under

14(d)(1) of the Act and that has

commenced under Rule 14d–2 to

purchase any of its equity securities

during the tender offer unless it first

files a statement with the Commission

containing information require by the

Rule. This rule is in keeping with the

Commission’s statutory responsibility to

prescribe rules and regulations that are

necessary for the protection of investors.

Public companies are the respondents.

An estimated 20 respondents file Rule

13e–1 submissions annually at an

estimated 13 hours per response for a

total annual burden of 260 hours. All

information provided is made available

to the public.

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.

Written comments regarding the

above information should be directed to

the following persons: (i) Desk Officer

Commission, Office of Information and

Regulatory Affairs, Office of

Management and Budget, Room 10102,
