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. 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 a registration form used by large, 
publicly-traded Canadian issuers to register securities that will be 
offered in a business combination, exchange offer or other 
reorganization requiring the vote of shareholders of the participating 
companies. The information collected is intended to make available 
material information upon which shareholders and investors can make 
informed voting and investment decisions. 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.
    The public may view the background documentation for this 
information collection at the following Web site, www.reginfo.gov. 
Comments should be directed to: (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 by sending an email to: [email protected]; and (ii) Thomas Bayer, Director/Chief Information 
Officer, Securities and Exchange Commission, c/o Remi Pavlik-Simon, 
6432 General Green Way, Alexandria, VA 22312 or send an email to: [email protected]. Comments must be submitted to OMB within 30 days of 
this notice.

    Dated: November 7, 2012.
Kevin M. O'Neill,
Deputy Secretary.
