Schedule 14C is filed by issuers of
securities that are registered under Section 12 of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 in connection with a consent
solicitation.
The amendments are intended to
continue and further the Commission’s ongoing efforts to make the
EDGAR system more comprehensive by including more filings in the
mandated electronic filing category. We anticipate that the
amendments would, in the aggregate, increase the burdens and costs
to registrants associated with compliance with the federal
securities disclosure regime. These estimated burden and cost
increases are expected to result primarily from the time required
to prepare, convert into the required electronic format (currently
PDF) if PDF is not already used for the report to security holders,
and review the “glossy” annual reports to security holders to be
submitted electronically in accordance with the EDGAR Filer Manual.
For purposes of the PRA, we estimate that the amendments to
Schedule 14C will result in a net increase of 832 burden hours and
a net increase in the cost burden of $111,008 for the services of
outside professionals.
