Jkt 271001

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 (SEC or
‘‘Commission’’) is submitting to the
Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) this request for extension of the
proposed collection of information
described below.
Form N–2 (17 CFR 239.14 and
274.11a–1) is the form used by closedend management investment companies
(‘‘registered closed-end funds’’) to
register under the Investment Company
Act of 1940 (15 U.S.C. 80a–1 et seq.)
(‘‘Investment Company Act’’), and to
register their securities under the
Securities Act of 1933 (15 U.S.C. 77a et
seq.) (‘‘Securities Act’’). Form N–2 is
also used by business development
companies (‘‘BDCs’’), which are closedend management investment companies
that do not register under the
Investment Company Act (but instead
elect to be subject to certain provisions
of the Investment Company Act (15
U.S.C. 80a–2(a)(48)) to register and offer
their securities under the Securities Act.
Section 5 of the Securities Act (15
U.S.C. 77e) requires the filing of a
registration statement prior to the offer
of securities to the public and that the
statement be effective before any
securities are sold. The primary purpose
of the registration process is to provide
disclosure of financial and other
information to current and potential
investors for the purpose of evaluating
an investment in a security. Section 5(b)
of the Securities Act requires that
investors be provided with a prospectus
containing the information required in a
registration statement prior to the sale,
or at the time of confirmation or
delivery, of the securities. A closed-end
management investment company (that
is not a BDC) is required to register as
an investment company under Section
8(a) of the Investment Company Act (15
U.S.C. 80a–8(a)). Form N–2 permits a
registered closed end fund and a BDC to
provide investors with a prospectus
covering essential information about the
fund when the fund makes an initial or
additional offering of its securities.
More-detailed information is available
to interested investors in the Statement
of Additional Information, which is
provided to investors upon request and
without charge.
The purpose of Form N–2 is to meet
the filing and disclosure requirements of
the Securities Act and the Investment
Company Act and to enable funds to
provide investors with information
necessary to evaluate an investment in
a registered closed-end fund or BDC.
The information filed with the
Commission permits the verification of

compliance with securities law
requirements and assures the public
availability and dissemination of the
information. A registered closed-end
fund or BDC must file a registration
statement on Form N–2 only when
making initial or additional offerings of
securities under the Securities Act, or
when amending its registration
statement. Compliance with the
disclosure requirements of Form N–2 is
mandatory. Responses to the disclosure
requirements will not be kept
confidential.
We estimate that approximately 427
respondents file Form N–2 annually,
with 1 response annually per
respondent at 344 hours per response,
including the time and the cost of
preparing and reviewing disclosure,
filing documents, and retaining records,
for a total annual time burden of
146,888 hours. In addition, we estimate
the total annual external cost burden
associated with Form N–2 to be
$9,914,940, based on 30 hours of
outside services at a wage rate of $774
per hour for an attorney in the securities
industry ($23,220 per response times
427 respondents).
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.
