SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION


Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request

Upon Written Request Copies Available From: Securities and Exchange 
Commission, Office of FOIA Services, 100 F Street NE., Washington, DC 
20549-2736.

Extension:
    Form F-1, SEC File No. 270-249, OMB Control No. 3235-0258.

    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 (``OMB'') this request for an extension of the previously 
approved collection of information discussed below.
    Form F-1 (17 CFR 239.31) is the form used by foreign private 
issuers to register the offer and sale of securities under the 
Securities Act of 1933 (15 U.S.C. 77a et seq.) when no other form is 
authorized or prescribed. 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-1 takes 
approximately 1,709 hours per response and is filed by approximately 63 
respondents. We estimate that 25% of the 1,709 hours per response 
(427.25 hours) is prepared by the registrant for a total annual 
reporting burden of 26,917 hours (427.25 hours per response x 63 
responses).
    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 OMB 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) 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]. Comments must be submitted to OMB within 30 
days of this notice.

    Dated: February 24, 2016.
Robert W. Errett,
Deputy Secretary.
