[Federal Register Volume 82, Number 47 (Monday, March 13, 2017)] [Notices] [Pages 13535-13536] From the Federal Register Online [www.thefederalregister.org] [FR Doc No: 2017-04867] ----------------------------------------------------------------------- SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION [Extension: Rule 104; SEC File No. 270-411, OMB Control No. 3235-0465] 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. Notice is hereby given that pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (``PRA'') (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), the Securities and Exchange Commission (``Commission'') has submitted to the Office of Management and Budget (``OMB'') a request for approval of extension of the previously approved collection of information provided for in Rule 104 of Regulation M (17 CFR 242.104), under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (15 U.S.C. 78a et seq.). Rule 104 permits stabilizing by a distribution participant during a distribution so long as the distribution participant discloses information to the market and investors. This rule requires disclosure in offering materials of the potential stabilizing transactions and that the distribution participant inform the market when a stabilizing bid is made. It also requires the distribution participants (i.e., the syndicate manager) to maintain information regarding syndicate covering transactions and penalty bids and disclose such information to the Self-Regulatory Organization. There are approximately 848 respondents per year that require an aggregate total of 170 hours to comply with this rule. Each respondent makes an estimated 1 annual response. Each response takes approximately 0.20 hours (12 minutes) to complete. Thus, the total compliance burden per year is 170 hours. The total internal labor cost of compliance for the respondents is approximately $11,050.00 per year, resulting in an internal cost of compliance of about $13.03 (i.e., $11,050.00/848 responses) per response. An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information under the PRA unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. The public may view 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 [[Page 13536]] 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, c/o Remi Pavlik-Simon, 100 F Street NE., Washington, DC 20549 or by sending an email to: [email protected]. Comments must be submitted within 30 days of this notice. Dated: March 8, 2017. Eduardo A. Aleman, Assistant Secretary. [FR Doc. 2017-04867 Filed 3-10-17; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 8011-01-P
