Abstract: Form 15F (17 CFR 249.324) is the form used by foreign private issuers to terminate or suspend their reporting obligations under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”). Specifically, foreign private issuers use Form 15F to disclose information that helps investors understand the decision to terminate or suspend their Exchange Act reporting obligations and to assist the Commission staff in assessing whether foreign private issuers are eligible to terminate their Exchange Act reporting obligations. The purpose of Form 15F is to provide U.S. investors with information regarding a foreign private issuer’s decision to terminate or suspend its Exchange Act reporting obligations.

Short Statement: The decrease in burden hours of 52 hours is due to a decrease in the number of annual Form 15F responses (from 30 responses to 23 responses). The increase in the cost burden of $40,500 is due to an increase in the Commission’s estimate for the hourly cost of outside professionals (from $400 per hour to $600 per hour), as offset in part by the decrease in the number of annual responses.
