Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 207 / Friday, October 27, 2023 / Notices

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.
Form 6–K (17 CFR 249.306) is a
disclosure document under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (15
U.S.C. 78a et seq.) that must be filed by
a foreign private issuer to report
material information promptly after the
occurrence of specified or other
important corporate events that are
disclosed in the foreign private issuer’s
home country. The purpose of Form 6–
K is to ensure that U.S. investors have
access to the same information that
foreign investors do when making
investment decisions. Form 6–K is a
public document and all information
provided is mandatory. Form 6–K takes
approximately 8.7 hours per response
and is filed by approximately 34,794
issuers annually. We estimate 75% of
the 8.7 hours per response (6.525 hours)
is prepared by the issuer for a total
annual reporting burden of 227,031
hours (6.525 hours per response ×
34,794 responses). The remaining
burden hours are reflected as a cost to
the foreign private issuers.
An agency may conduct or sponsor,
and a person is not required to respond
to, a collection of information unless it
displays a currently valid control
number.

Submission for OMB Review;
Comment Request; Extension: Form
15F
Upon Written Request Copies Available

Commission, Office of FOIA Services,

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.
Form 15F (17 CFR 249.324) is filed by
a foreign private issuer when
terminating its Exchange Act reporting
obligations pursuant to Exchange Act
Rule 12h–6 (17 CFR 240.12h–6). Form
15F requires a foreign private issuer to
disclose information that helps
investors understand the foreign private
issuer’s decision to terminate its
Exchange Act reporting obligations and
assists the Commission staff in
determining whether the filer is eligible
to terminate its Exchange Act reporting
obligations pursuant to Rule 12h–6.
Rule 12h–6 provides a process for a
foreign private issuer to exit the
Exchange Act registration and reporting
regime when there is relatively little
U.S. investor interest in its securities.
Rule 12h–6 is intended to remove a
disincentive for foreign private issuers
to register their securities with the
Commission by lessening concerns that
the Exchange Act registration and
reporting system would be difficult to
exit once an issuer enters it. The
information provided to the
Commission is mandatory and all
information is made available to the
public upon request. We estimate that
Form 15F takes approximately 30 hours
to prepare and is filed by approximately
30 foreign private issuers. We estimate
that 25% of the 30 hours per response
(7.5 hours per response) is prepared by
the filer for a total annual reporting
burden of 225 hours (7.5 hours per
response × 30 responses).
An agency may conduct or sponsor,
and a person is not required to respond
to, a collection of information unless it
displays a currently valid control
number.
