SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION


Proposed Collection; Comment Request

Upon Written Request Copies Available From: Securities and Exchange 
Commission, Office of FOIA Services, 100 F Street NE., Washington, DC 
20549-0213.

Extension: Form F-7.
    SEC File No. 270-331, OMB Control No. 3235-0383.

    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.
    Form F-7 (17 CFR 239.37) is a registration statement under the 
Securities Act of 1933 (15 U.S.C. 77a et seq.) used to register 
securities that are offered for cash upon the exercise of rights 
granted to a registrant's existing security holders to purchase or 
subscribe such securities. 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 such information. Form F-7 takes 
approximately 4 hours per response to prepare and is filed by 
approximately 5 respondents. We estimate that 25% of 4 hours per 
response (one hour) is prepared by the company for a total annual 
reporting burden of 5 hours (one hour per response x 5 responses).
    Written comments are invited on: (a) Whether this proposed 
collection of information is necessary for the proper 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.
    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.
    Please direct your written comment to Pamela Dyson, Director/Chief 
Information Officer, Securities and Exchange Commission, c/o Remi 
Pavlik-Simon, 100 F Street NE., Washington, DC 20549 or send an email 
to: [email protected].

    Dated: February 2, 2016.
Robert W. Errett,
Deputy Secretary.
