SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[SEC File No. 270-335, OMB Control No. 3235-0381]

Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request

Upon Written Request Copies Available From: Securities and Exchange 
Commission, Office of FOIA Services, 100 F Street NE., Washington, DC 
20549-2736.

Extension:
    Form 40-F.

    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.
    Form 40-F (17 CFR 249.240f) is used by certain Canadian issuers to 
register a class of securities pursuant to Section 12(b) or (g) of the 
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (``Exchange Act'')(15 U.S.C. 78l) or as 
an annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act 
(15 U.S.C. 78m(a) or 78o(d)). The information required in the Form 40-F 
is used by investors in making investment decisions with respect to the 
securities of such Canadian companies. We estimate that Form 40-F takes 
approximately 429.93 hours per response and is filed by approximately 
160 respondents. We estimate that 25% of the 429.93 hours per response 
(107.48 hours) is prepared by the issuer for a total reporting burden 
of 17,197 (107.48 hours per response x 160 responses).
    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 the 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 Office 
Building, Washington, DC 20503, or by sending an email to: 
Shagufta_Ahmed@omb.eop.gov; and (ii) Pamela Dyson, Director/Chief 
Information Officer, Securities and Exchange Commission, c/o Remi 
Pavlik-Simon, 100 F Street NE., Washington, DC 20549 or send an email 
to: PRA_Mailbox@sec.gov. Comments must be submitted to OMB within 30 
days of this notice.

    Dated: March 25, 2015.
Brent J. Fields,
Secretary.
