Form D is a notice of sales filed by issuers making an offering of securities in reliance on an exemption under Regulation D or Section 4(6) of the Securities Act of 1933.
The increase burden hours and the increase in cost burden are due to two agency adjustments. First, the burden hour increased by 7,500 burden hours as a result of an increase in the number of responses filed from 17,500 to 25,000. Second, the cost burden increased by $14,250,000 is due to the Commission increasing its cost estimate from $300 per hour to $400 per hour for outside counselors.
