SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-54633]


Notice of Intention To Cancel Registrations of Certain Transfer 
Agents

October 20, 2006.
    Notice is hereby given that the Securities and Exchange Commission 
(``Commission'') intends to issue an order, pursuant to Section 
17A(c)(4)(B) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (``Act''),\1\ 
cancelling the registrations of the transfer agents whose names appear 
in the attached Appendix.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ 15 U.S.C. 78q-1(c)(4)(B).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    For Further Information Contact: Jerry W. Carpenter, Assistant 
Director, or Catherine Moore, Special Counsel, at (202) 551-5710, 
Division of Market Regulation, Securities and Exchange Commission, 100 
F Street, NE., Washington, DC 20549-6628.

Background

    Section 17A(c)(4)(B) of the Act provides that if the Commission 
finds that any transfer agent registered with the Commission is no 
longer in existence or has ceased to do business as a transfer agent, 
the Commission shall by order cancel that transfer agent's 
registration. Accordingly, at any time after November 27, 2006, the 
Commission intends to issue an order cancelling the registrations of 
the transfer agents listed in the Appendix.
    The Commission has made efforts to locate and to determine the 
status of

[[Page 62632]]

each of the transfer agents listed in the Appendix. In some cases, the 
Commission was unable to locate the transfer agent, and in other cases, 
the Commission learned that the transfer agent had ceased doing 
business as a transfer agent. Therefore, based on the facts it has, the 
Commission believes that the transfer agents listed in the Appendix are 
no longer in existence or have ceased doing business as transfer 
agents.
    Any transfer agent listed in the Appendix that believes its 
registration should not be cancelled must notify the Commission in 
writing prior to November 27, 2006. Written notifications may be mailed 
to: Catherine Moore, Division of Market Regulation, Securities and 
Exchange Commission, 100 F Street, NE., Washington, DC 20459-6628. 
Written notifications may also be e-mailed to: [email protected] to the 
attention of Catherine Moore, with the phrase ``Notice of Intention to 
Cancel Transfer Agent Registration'' in the subject line.

    For the Commission by the Division of Market Regulation, 
pursuant to delegated authority.\2\
Nancy M. Morris,
Secretary.
