Form 10-K is filed by issuers of
securities to satisfy their annual report obligations pursuant to
Sections 13 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act.
The proposed amendments in
Release No. 33-10201 would assist investors and other users by
substantially easing the difficulties in retrieving exhibits
attached to filings. However, we anticipate the proposed amendments
would increase the burdens and costs for registrants to prepare and
review filings that contain hyperlinks to the exhibits attached to
a filing. For purposes of the PRA, we estimate that the proposed
amendments to Form 10-K would result in a net increase of 18,308
burden hours and a net increase in the cost burden of $2,441,200
for the services of outside professionals.
