SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION


Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request

Upon written request, copies available from: Securities and Exchange 
Commission, Office of Investor Education and Advocacy, Washington, DC 
20549-0213.

Extension: Form F-80, OMB Control No.

[[Page 42708]]

3235-0404, SEC File No. 270-357.

    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.
    Form F-80 (17 CFR 239.41) is used by large, publicly-traded 
Canadian foreign private issuers registering securities that are 
offered in business combinations and exchange offers. The information 
collected is intended to ensure that the information required to be 
filed by the Commission permits verification of compliance with 
securities law requirements and assures the public availability of the 
information. The information provided is mandatory and all information 
is made available to the public upon request. Form F-80 takes 
approximately 2 hours per response and is filed by approximately 4 
issuers for a total annual burden of 8 hours. The estimated burden of 2 
hours per response was based upon the amount of time necessary to 
compile the registration statement using the existing Canadian 
prospectus plus any additional information required by the Commission.
    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 [email protected]; and (ii) Charles Boucher, Director/CIO, Securities 
and Exchange Commission, C/O Shirley Martinson, 6432 General Green Way, 
Alexandria, Virginia 22312; or send an e-mail to: [email protected]. 
Comments must be submitted to OMB within 30 days of this notice.

    Dated: August 17, 2009.
Florence E. Harmon,
Deputy Secretary.
