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:
    Regulation 14A (Commission Rules 14a-1 through 14a-21 and 
Schedule 14A), SEC File No. 270-056, OMB Control No. 3235-0059.

    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.
    Section 14(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the 
``Exchange Act'') operates to make it unlawful for a company with a 
class of securities registered pursuant to Section 12 of the Exchange 
Act to solicit proxies in contravention of such rules and regulations 
as the Commission has prescribed as necessary or appropriate in the 
public interest or for the protection of investors. The Commission has 
promulgated Regulation 14A to regulate the solicitation of proxies or 
consents. Regulation 14A (Exchange Act Rules 14a-1 through 14a-21 and 
Schedule 14A) (17 CFR 240.14a-1 through 240.14a-21 and 240.14a-101) 
sets forth the requirements for the dissemination, content and filing 
of proxy or consent solicitation materials in connection with annual or 
other meetings of holders of a Section 12-registered class of 
securities. We estimate that Schedule 14A takes approximately 130.52 
hours per response and will be filed by approximately 5,586 issuers 
annually. In addition, we estimate that 75% of the 130.52 hours per 
response (97.89 hours) is prepared by the issuer for an annual 
reporting burden of 546,814 hours (97.89 hours per response x 5,586 
responses).
    Written comments are invited on: (a) Whether this 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 comments 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: June 16, 2015.
Brent J. Fields,
Secretary.
