SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[SEC File No. 270-255, OMB Control No. 3235-0305]

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

    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 this request for extension of the previously

approved collection of information discussed below.
    Rule 13e-1 (17 CFR 240.13e-1) under the Securities Exchange Act of 
1934 (U.S.C. 78 et seq.) makes it unlawful for an issuer who has 
received notice that it is the subject of a tender offer made under 
Section 14(d)(1) of the Exchange Act to purchase any of its equity 
securities during the tender offer, unless it first files a statement 
with the Commission containing information required by the rule. This 
rule is in keeping with the Commission's statutory responsibility to 
prescribe rules and regulations that are necessary for the protection 
of investors. Public companies are the respondents. We estimate that it 
takes approximately 10 burden hours per response to provide the 
information required under Rule 13e-1 and that the information is filed 
by approximately 10 respondents. We estimate that 25% of the 10 hours 
per response (2.5 hours) is prepared by the company for a total annual 
reporting burden of 25 hours (2.5 hours per response x 10 responses).
    An agency may 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 background documentation for this information 
collection at the following website: www.reginfo.gov. Find this 
particular information collection by selecting ``Currently under 30-day 
Review--Open for Public Comments'' or by using the search function. 
Written comments and recommendations for the proposed information 
collection should be sent within 30 days of publication of this notice 
by September 26, 2022 to (i) www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain and (ii)

Exchange Commission, c/o John Pezzullo, 100 F Street NE, Washington, DC

Deputy Secretary.
