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 
20549-2736.

Extension:
    Schedule 13E-4F. SEC File No. 270-340, OMB Control No. 3235-
0375.

    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.
    Schedule 13E-4F (17 CFR 240.13e-102) may be used by an issuer that 
is incorporated or organized under the laws of Canada to make a cash 
tender or exchange offer for the issuer's own securities if less than 
40 percent of the class of such issuer's securities outstanding that 
are the subject of the tender offer is held by U.S. holders. The 
information collected must be filed with the Commission and is publicly 
available. We estimate that it takes approximately 2 hours per response 
to prepare Schedule 13E-4F and that the information is filed by 
approximately 3 respondents for a total annual reporting burden of 6 
hours (2 hours per response x 3 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: May 17, 2016.
Robert W. Errett,
Deputy Secretary.
