The total annual hour burden of
117.25 represents an increase of 0.25 hours over the previous hour
estimate of 117 hours. In addition, the annual cost burden of
$10,400 represents an increase of $400 over the previous external
cost burden estimate of $10,000 per year. The changes in burden
hours and external costs are due to the staff’s estimates of the
time costs and external costs that would result from our proposed
amendments to Form N-5 regarding hyperlinking.
