Proxy Disclosure Enhancements; Correction

AGENCY: Securities and Exchange Commission.

ACTION: Final rule; correction.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: We are making technical corrections to amendments to our 
disclosure rules adopted in Release No. 33-9089 (December 16, 2009), 
which was published in the Federal Register on December 23, 2009 (74 FR 
68334). Specifically, we are correcting Forms 10-Q and 10-K to retain 
the current numbering of the items appearing in each form to avoid 
confusion that might otherwise arise from references to the current 
numbering in professional literature. In addition, we are making three 
corrections to Form 8-K. We are correcting Form 8-K to add an 
instruction, which was inadvertently excluded, that corresponds to an 
instruction contained in Forms 10-Q and 10-K that allows certain 
wholly-owned subsidiaries to omit the disclosure of shareholder voting 
results. We also are correcting Form 8-K to amend the regulatory text 
to make it consistent with the discussion of the amendments to that 
form contained in Release No. 33-9089.

DATES: Effective Date: February 28, 2010.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: N. Sean Harrison, Special Counsel, at 
(202) 551-3430, U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, 100 F Street, 
NE., Washington, DC 20549.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: We are making the following corrections to

E9-30327 and appeared on page 68334 in the Federal Register on December 
23, 2009:
