Commission (``Commission'') has submitted to the Office of Management 
and Budget requests for extension of the previously approved 
collections of information discussed below.
    Form T-6 is a statement of eligibility and qualification for a 
foreign corporate trustee under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939. Form 
T-6 provides the basis for determining if a trustee is qualified. Form 
T-6 is filed on occasion and the information required is mandatory. All 
information is provided to the public upon request. Form T-6 takes 
approximately 17 burden hours to prepare and is filed by 15 
respondents. It is estimated that 25% of the 255 total burden hours (64 
hours) would be prepared by the filer.
    Form 11-K is the annual report designed for use by employee stock 
purchase, savings and similar plans to facilitate their compliance with 
the reporting requirement. Form 11-K is necessary to provide employees 
with information, including financial information, with respect to the 
investment vehicle or plan itself. Form 11-K provides the employees 
with the necessary information to assess the performance of the 
investment vehicle in which their money is invested. Form 11-K is filed 
on occasion and the information required is mandatory. All information 
is provided to the public upon request. Form 11-K takes approximately 
30 burden hours to prepare and is filed by 774 respondents for a total 
of 23,220 annual burden hours.
    Form 144 is used to report the sale of securities during any three 
month period that exceeds 500 shares or other units or has an aggregate 
sales price in excess of $10,000. The information requested is 
mandatory. Form 144 operates in conjunction with Rule 144. If the 
information collection was not required, the objectives of the rule 
could be frustrated. All information is provided to the public upon 
request. Form 144 takes 2 burden hours to prepare and is filed by 
18,096 respondents for a total of 36,192 annual burden hours.
    Regulation S-B provides an integrated disclosure system for small 
business issuers that file registration statements under the Securities 
Act of 1933 and reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The 
information requested is mandatory. The information collected is 
intended to ensure the adequacy of information available to investors 
in the registration of securities. All information is provided to the 
public upon request. Regulation S-B takes approximately one burden hour 
to review and is filed by one respondent for a total of one annual 
burden hour. The one hour associated with Regulation S-B is strictly an 
administrative reporting burden.
    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,
