Extension: Form F-80
SEC File No. 270-357, OMB Control No. 3235-0404
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.
Form F-80 (17 CFR 239.41) is a registration form used by large, publicly-traded
Canadian issuers to register securities that will be offered in a business combination, exchange
offer or other reorganization requiring the vote of shareholders of the participating companies.
The information collected is intended to make available material information upon which
shareholders and investors can make informed voting and investment decisions. Form F-80 takes
approximately 2 hours per response and is filed by approximately 4 issuers for a total annual
burden of 8 hours (2 hours per response x 4 responses). The estimated burden of 2 hours per
response was based upon the amount of time necessary to compile the registration statement
using the existing Canadian prospectus plus any additional information required by the
Commission.

Written comments are invited on: (a) whether this proposed 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 collections 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.

Officer, Securities and Exchange Commission, c/o Candace Kenner, 100 F Street, NE,
