Extension: Form F-8
SEC File No. 270-332, OMB Control No. 3235-0378
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”) is soliciting comments
on the collection of information summarized below. The Commission plans to submit this
existing collection of information to the Office of Management and Budget for extension and
approval.
Form F-8 (17 CFR 239.38) may be used to register securities of certain Canadian issuers
under the Securities Act of 1933 (15 U.S.C. 77a et seq.) that will be used in an exchange offer or
business combination. The information collected is intended to ensure that the information
required to be filed by the Commission permits verification of compliance with securities law
requirements and assures the public availability of such information. We estimate that Form F-8
takes approximately one hour per response to prepare and is filed by approximately 5
respondents. We estimate that 25% of one hour per response (15 minutes) is prepared by the
company for a total annual reporting burden of one hour (15 minutes/60 minutes per response x 5
responses = 1.25 hours rounded to the nearest whole number one hour).
Written comments are invited on: (a) whether this proposed collection of information is
necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency, including whether the

2
information will have practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the agency’s estimate of the burden
imposed by the collection of information; (c) ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of
the information collected; and (d) ways to minimize the burden of the collection of information
on respondents, including through the use of automated collection techniques or other forms of
information technology. Consideration will be given to comments and suggestions submitted in
writing within 60 days of this publication.
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.
Please direct your written comment to Charles Riddle, Acting Director/Chief Information
Officer, Securities and Exchange Commission, c/o Candace Kenner, 100 F Street, NE,
Washington, DC 20549 or send an e-mail to: [email protected].
