Burden decreases because of Program Change due to Agency Discretion: No

Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: The adopted amendments in Release No. 33-10322 would assist investors and other users by substantially easing the difficulties in retrieving exhibits included with filings. However, we anticipate the adopted amendments would increase the burdens and costs for registrants to prepare and review filings that contain hyperlinks to the exhibits attached to a filing. For purposes of the PRA, we estimate that the proposed amendments to Form SF-3 would result in a net increase of 53 burden hours and a net increase in the cost burden of $63,900 for the services of outside professionals.
