SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[SEC File No. 270-057, OMB Control No. 3235-0057]


Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request; Extension: Regulation 
14C (Commission Rules 14c-1 through 14c-7 and Schedule 14C)

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

    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.
    Section 14(c) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the 
``Exchange Act'') operates to require issuers that do not solicit 
proxies or consents from any or all of the holders of record of a class 
of securities registered under section 12 of the Exchange Act and in 
accordance with the rules and regulations prescribed under section 
14(a) in connection with a meeting of security holders (including 
action by consent) to distribute to any holders that were not solicited 
an information statement substantially equivalent to the information 
that would be required to be transmitted if a proxy or consent 
solicitation were made. Regulation 14C (Exchange Act Rules 14c-1 
through 14c-7 and Schedule 14C) (17 CFR 240.14c-1 through 240.14c-7 and 
240.14c-101) sets forth the requirements for the dissemination, content 
and filing of the information statement. We estimate that Schedule 14C 
takes approximately 129.1575 hours per response and will be filed by 
approximately 569 issuers annually. In addition, we estimate that 75% 
of the 129.1575 hours per response (96.8681 hours) is prepared by the 
issuer for an annual reporting burden of 55,118 hours (96.8681 hours 
per response x 569 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 January 9, 2023 to (i) www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain and (ii) 
David Bottom, Director/Chief Information Officer, Securities and 
Exchange Commission, c/o John Pezzullo, 100 F Street NE, Washington, DC 
20549, or by sending an email to: [email protected].

    Dated: December 5, 2022.
Sherry R. Haywood,
Assistant Secretary.
