SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

 
Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request

Upon Written Request, Copies Available From: Securities and Exchange 
Commission, Office of Filings and Information Services, Washington, DC 
20549.

Extension:
    Regulation G; OMB Control No. 3235-0576; SEC File No. 270-518.

    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.
    Regulation G under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the 
``Exchange Act'') requires registrants that publicly disclose material 
information that includes a non-GAAP financial measure to provide a 
reconciliation to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. 
Regulation G implemented the requirements of Section 401 of the 
Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. The information provided under Regulation G 
is mandatory and is available to the public. We estimate that 
approximately 14,000 public companies must comply with Regulation G 
approximately six times a year for a total of 84,000 responses 
annually. We estimated that it takes approximately .5 hours per 
response (84,000 x .5 hours) for a total reporting burden of 42,000 
hours annually.
    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 regarding the above information should be directed 
to the following persons: (i) Desk Officer for the Securities and 
Exchange Commission, Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, 
Office of Management and Budget, Room 10102, New Executive Office 
Building, Washington, DC 20503 or send an e-mail to 
David_Rostker@omb.eop.gov; and (ii) R. Corey Booth, Director/Chief 

Information Officer, Office of Information Technology, Securities and 
Exchange Commission, 100 F Street, NE., Washington, DC 20549. Comments 
must be submitted to OMB within 30 days of this notice.

    Dated: December 12, 2005.
Jonathan G. Katz,
Secretary.
