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 a
request for extension of the previously
approved collection of information
discussed below.
Under the Investment Company Act
of 1940 (15 U.S.C. 80a–1 et seq.) (the
‘‘Investment Company Act’’), certain
investment companies can elect to be
regulated as business development
companies, as defined in Section
2(a)(48) of the Investment Company Act
(15 U.S.C. 80a–2(a)(48)). Under Section
54(a) of the Investment Company Act
(15 U.S.C. 80a–53(a)), any company
defined in Section 2(a)(48)(A) and (B)
may elect to be subject to the provisions
of Sections 55 through 65 of the
Investment Company Act (15 U.S.C.

80a–54 to 80a–64) by filing with the
Commission a notification of election, if
such company has: (1) A class of equity
securities registered under Section 12 of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (15
U.S.C. 78a et seq.) (‘‘Exchange Act’’); or
(2) filed a registration statement
pursuant to Section 12 of the Exchange
Act for a class of its equity securities.
The Commission adopted Form N–54A
(17 CFR 274.53) as the form for
notification of election to be regulated
as a business development company.
The purpose of Form N–54A is to
notify the Commission that the
investment company making the
notification elects to be subject to
Sections 55 through 65 of the
Investment Company Act, enabling the
Commission to administer those
provisions of the Investment Company
Act to such companies.
The Commission estimates that on
average approximately 7 business
development companies file these
notifications each year. Each of those
business development companies need
only make a single filing of Form N–
54A. The Commission further estimates
that this information collection imposes
a burden of 0.5 hours, resulting in a
total annual PRA burden of 3.5 hours.
Based on the estimated wage rate, the
total cost to the business development
company industry of the hour burden
for complying with Form N–54A would
be approximately $1,288.
The collection of information under
Form N–54A is mandatory. The
information provided by the form is not
kept confidential. 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.
Written comments are invited on: (a)
Whether the proposed collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
agency, including whether the
information will have practical utility;
(b) the accuracy of the agency’s estimate
of the burden of 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.
Please direct your written comments

Information Officer, Securities and
Exchange Commission, C/O Cynthia

Revision:
Form N–8B–2

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 (the
‘‘Commission’’) has submitted to the
Office of Management and Budget a
request for extension of the previously
approved collection of information
discussed below.
Form N–8B–2 (17 CFR 274.12) is the
form used by unit investment trusts
(‘‘UITs’’) other than separate accounts
that are currently issuing securities,
including UITs that are issuers of
periodic payment plan certificates and
UITs of which a management
investment company is the sponsor or
depositor, to comply with the filing and
disclosure requirements imposed by
section 8(b) of the Investment Company
Act of 1940 (15 U.S.C. 80a–8(b)). Form
N–8B–2 requires disclosure about the
organization of a UIT, its securities, the
personnel and affiliated persons of the
depositor, the distribution and
redemption of securities, the trustee or
custodian, and financial statements. The
Commission uses the information
provided in the collection of
information to determine compliance
with section 8(b) of the Investment
Company Act.
Each registrant subject to the Form
N–8B–2 filing requirement files Form
N–8B–2 for its initial filing and does not
file post-effective amendments on Form
N–8B–2.1 The Commission staff
estimates that approximately one
respondent files one Form N–8B–2
1 Post-effective

amendments are filed with the
Commission on the UIT’s Form S–6. Hence,
respondents only file Form N–8B–2 for their initial
registration statement and not for post-effective
amendments.

filing annually with the Commission.
Based on form amendments to include
formatting and hyperlinking
requirements to Form N–8B–2 arising
from the adoption of the FAST Act
release,2 staff estimates that the burden
for compliance with Form N–8B–2 is
approximately 28 hours per filing.3 The
total hourly burden for the Form N–8B–
2 filing requirement therefore is 28
hours in the aggregate (1 respondent ×
one filing per respondent × 28 hours per
filing), at an internal cost burden of
$9,912, and external cost burden of
$10,300.
Estimates of the burden hours are
made solely for the purposes of the PRA
and are not derived from a
comprehensive or even a representative
survey or study of the costs of SEC rules
and forms. The information provided on
Form N–8B–2 is mandatory. The
information provided on Form N–8B–2
will not be kept confidential. 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 OMB control
number.

to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(‘‘PRA’’) (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), the
Securities and Exchange Commission
(‘‘Commission’’) is soliciting comments
on the collections of information
provided for in Rule 12d2–2 (17 CFR
240.12d2–2) and Form 25 (17 CFR

Act of 1934 (15 U.S.C. 78a et seq.). The
Commission plans to submit these
existing collections of information to the
Office of Management and Budget for
extension and approval for
On February 12, 1935, the
Commission adopted Rule 12d2–2 1 and
Form 25, under the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934 (‘‘Act’’), to establish the
conditions and procedures under which
a security may be delisted from an
exchange and withdrawn from
registration under Section 12(b) of the
Act.2 The Commission adopted
amendments to Rule 12d2–2 and Form
25 in 2005.3 Under the amended Rule
12d2–2, all issuers and national
securities exchanges seeking to delist
and deregister a security in accordance
with the rules of an exchange must file
the adopted version of Form 25 with the
Commission. The Commission also
adopted amendments to Rule 19d–1
under the Act to require exchanges to
file the adopted version of Form 25 as
notice to the Commission under Section
19(d) of the Act. Finally, the
Commission adopted amendments to
exempt standardized options and
security futures products from Section
12(d) of the Act. These amendments are
intended to simplify the paperwork and
procedure associated with a delisting
