rule change, or institute proceedings to
determine whether to disapprove the
proposed rule change.5 On May 11,
2021, the Commission instituted
proceedings under Section 19(b)(2)(B) of
the Exchange Act 6 to determine
whether to approve or disapprove the
proposed rule change.7 The Commission
has not received any comment letters on
the proposed rule change.
Section 19(b)(2) of the Exchange Act 8
provides that, after initiating
disapproval proceedings, the
Commission shall issue an order
approving or disapproving the proposed
rule change not later than 180 days after
the date of publication of notice of filing
of the proposed rule change. The
Commission may extend the period for
issuing an order approving or
disapproving the proposed rule change
by not more than 60 days if the
Commission determines that a longer
period is appropriate and publishes
reasons for such determination. The
proposed rule change was published for
notice and comment in the Federal
Register on February 10, 2021. August
9, 2021 is 180 days from that date, and
October 8, 2021 is 240 days from that
date.
The Commission finds it appropriate
to designate a longer period within
which to issue an order approving or
disapproving the proposed rule change
so that it has sufficient time to consider
the proposed rule change. Accordingly,
the Commission, pursuant to Section
19(b)(2) of the Exchange Act,9
designates October 8, 2021 as the date
by which the Commission shall either
approve or disapprove the proposed
rule change (File No. SR–CboeBZX–
2021–014).
For the Commission, by the Division of
Trading and Markets, pursuant to delegated
authority.10

Assistant Secretary.

Form 1–K

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 1–K (17 CFR 239.91) is used to
file annual reports by Tier 2 issuers
under Regulation A, an exemption from
registration under the Securities Act of
1933 (15 U.S.C. 77a et seq.). Tier 2
issuers under Regulation A conducting
offerings of up to $50 million within a
12-month period are required to file
Form 1–K. Form 1–K provides audited
year-end financial statements and
information about the issuer’s business
operation, ownership, management,
liquidity, capital resources and
operations on an annual basis. In
addition, Part I of the Form 1–K collects
information on any offerings under
Regulation A that have been terminated
or completed unless it has been
previous reported on Form 1–Z. The
purpose of the Form 1–K is to better
inform the public about companies that
have conducted Tier 2 offerings under
Regulation A. We estimate that
approximately 36 issuers file Form 1–K
annually. We estimate that Form 1–K
takes approximately 600 hours to
prepare. We estimate that 75% of the
600 hours per response (450 hours) is
prepared by the company for a total
annual burden of 16,200 hours (450.0
hours per response × 36 responses).
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
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.
