SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION


Proposed Collection; Comment Request

Upon Written Request Copies Available From: Securities and Exchange 
Commission, Office of Investor Education and Advocacy, Washington, DC 
20549-0213.
Extension:
    Rule 14f-1. OMB Control No. 3235-0108, SEC File No. 270-127.

    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.
    Under Exchange Act Rule 14f-1 (17 CFR 240.14f-1), if a person or 
persons have acquired securities of an issuer in a transaction subject 
to Sections 13(d) or 14(d) of the Exchange Act, and changes a majority 
of the directors of the issuer otherwise than at a meeting of security 
holders, then the issuer must file with the Commission and transmit to 
security holders information related to the change in directors within 
10 days prior to the date the new majority takes office as directors. 
The information filed under Rule 14f-1 must be filed with the 
Commission and is publicly available. We estimate that it takes 
approximately 18 burden hours to provide the information required under 
Rule 14f-1 and that the information is filed by approximately 172 
respondents for a total annual reporting burden of 3,096 hours.
    Written comments are invited on: (a) Whether this proposed 
collection of information is necessary for the 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.
    Please direct your written comment to Thomas Bayer, Director/Chief 
Information Officer, Securities and Exchange Commission, c/o Remi 
Pavlik-Simon, 6432 General Green Way, Alexandria, Virginia 22312; or 
send an email to: PRA_Mailbox@sec.gov.

    Dated: November 19, 2012.
Kevin M. O'Neill,
Deputy Secretary.
