# 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
*Extension:*
Rule 433
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”) has submitted to the Office of Management and Budget this request for extension of the previously approved collection of information discussed below.
Rule 433 (17 CFR 230.433) governs the use and filing of free writing prospectuses under the Securities Act of 1933 (15 U.S.C. 77a *et seq.* ). The purpose of Rule 433 is to reduce the restrictions on communications that an issuer can make to investors during a registered offering of its securities, while maintaining important investor protections. A free writing prospectus meeting the conditions of Rule 433(d)(1) must be filed with the Commission and is publicly available. We estimate that it takes approximately 1.28 burden hours per response to prepare a free writing prospectus and that the information is filed by 2,906 respondents approximately 5.4026 times per year for a total of 15,700 responses. We estimate that 25% of the 1.28 burden hours per response (0.32 hours) is prepared by the issuer for total annual reporting burden of approximately 5,024 hours (0.32 hours × 15,700 responses).
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.
The public may view background documentation for this information collection at the following website: *www.reginfo.gov.* Find this particular information collection by selecting “Currently under 30-day Review—Open for Public Comments” or by using the search function. Written comments and recommendations for the proposed information collection should be sent within 30 days of publication of this notice to (i) *www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain* and (ii) David Bottom, Director/Chief Information Officer, Securities and Exchange Commission, c/o Cynthia Roscoe, 100 F Street NE, Washington, DC 20549, or by sending an email to: *[email protected].*
