Rule 147A(f)(1)(iii) Written Representation
as to Purchaser Residency, SEC File No.
270–806, OMB Control No. 3235–0757.

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 this
request for extension of the previously
approved collection of information
discussed below.
Rule 147A(f)(1)(iii) (17 CFR
230.147A(f)(1)(iii)) requires the issuer to
obtain from the purchaser a written
representation as to the pruchase’s
residency in order to qualify for safe
harbor under Securities Act Rule 147A
(17 CFR 230.147A). Rule 147A is an
exemption from registration under
Securities Act Section 28 (15 U.S.C.
77z–3). Under Rule 147A, the purchaser
in the offering must be a resident of the

same state or territory in which the
issuer is a resident. While the formal
representation of residency by itself is
not sufficient to establish a reasonable
belief that such purchasers are in-state
residents, the representation
requirement, together with the
reasonable belief standard, may result in
better compliance with the rule and
maintaining appropriate investor
protections. The representation of
residency is not provided to the
Commission. Approximately 700
respondents provide the information
required by Rule 147A(f)(1)(iii) at an
estimated 2.75 hours per response for a
total annual reporting burden of 1,925
hours (2.75 hours x 700 responses).
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.
The public may view the background
documentation for this information
collection at the following website,
www.reginfo.gov. Comments should be
directed to: (i) Desk Officer for the
Securities and Exchange Commission,
Office of Information and Regulatory
Affairs, Office of Management and
Budget, Room 10102, New Executive
Office Building, Washington, DC 20503,
