Registration Statement
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
(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 (‘‘OMB’’) for
extension and approval.
Form F–8 (17 CFR 239.38) may be
used by certain Canadian issuers for
registration under the Securities Act of
1933 (15 U.S.C. 77a et seq.) (‘‘Securities
Act’’) in connection with exchange
offers and certain business
combinations. Form F–8 provides
investors with information important to
investment decision making while also
promoting capital formation by reducing
the cost and increasing the efficiency of
Securities Act registration in connection
with exchange offers and business
combination transactions, which may
encourage Canadian issuers to extend
exchange offers and business
combinations to U.S. securityholders.
We estimate that Form F–8 takes
approximately one hour per response to
prepare and is filed by approximately
one respondent annually. We estimate
that 25% of the collection of
information burden is carried by the
issuer. For total paperwork burden
hours, where our calculations produced
a number less than one, we have used
an estimate of one for total burden
hours. We estimate a total annual
reporting burden of one hour (.25 hours
57 17

× 1 response annually = .25 hours,
rounded to 1 hour). We estimate that
75% of the one hour per response (.75
hours) is carried by outside
professionals retained by the issuer at
an estimated cost of $600 per hour, for
a total annual cost burden of $450 (.75
hours per response × $600 per hour × 1
response annually).
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 OMB
control number.
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 collection of
information on respondents, including
through the use of automated collection
techniques or other forms of information
technology.
Please direct your written comments
on this 60-Day Collection Notice to
Austin Gerig, Director/Chief Data
Officer, Securities and Exchange
Commission, c/o Tanya Ruttenberg via
email to PaperworkReductionAct@
sec.gov by September 8, 2025. There
will be a second opportunity to
comment on this SEC request following
the Federal Register publishing a 30Day Submission Notice.
Dated: July 2, 2025.

Assistant Secretary.
