SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[SEC File No. 270-287, OMB Control No. 3235-0324]

Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request; Extension: Form S-4

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

    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 a request for extension of the previously approved 
collection of information discussed below.
    Form S-4 (17 CFR 239.25) is the form used for registration under 
the Securities Act of 1933 (15 U.S.C. 77a et seq.) of securities issued 
in business combination transactions. The information collected is 
intended to ensure the adequacy of information available to investors 
in connection with business combination transactions. Form S-4 is a 
public document and all information provided is mandatory. Form S-4 
takes approximately 3,820.89 hours per response to prepare and is filed 
by 588 registrants annually. We estimate that 25% of the 3,820.89 hours 
per response (955.223 hours) is prepared by the registrant for an 
annual reporting burden of 561,671 hours (955.223 hours per response x 
588 responses).
    An agency may 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 background documentation for this information 
collection at the following website: www.reginfo.gov. Find this 
particular information collection by selecting ``Currently under 30-day 
Review--Open for Public Comments'' or by using the search function. 
Written comments and recommendations for the proposed information 
collection should be sent within 30 days of publication of this notice 
by November 14, 2022 to (i) www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain and (ii) 
David Bottom, Director/Chief Information Officer, Securities and 
Exchange Commission, c/o John Pezzullo, 100 F Street NE, Washington, DC 
20549, or by sending an email to: [email protected].

    Dated: October 5 2022.
J. Matthew DeLesDernier,
Deputy Secretary.
