Abstract:
The Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”) was enacted in order to provide full and fair disclosure with respect to publicly offered securities and to prevent fraud in connection with such offerings. The Securities Act carries out this purpose by requiring the filing of a registration statement in connection with public distributions of securities by issuers and their control persons. Schedule A of the Securities Act specifies the general types of information that must be disclosed in registration statements filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“Commission”). The Commission has authority, under Section 19 of the Securities Act, to promulgate rules to carry out the provisions of the Securities Act. Form S-1 (17 CFR 239.11) is a general registration form used to register the public offering of securities under the Securities Act of 1933 (“Securities Act”). Form S-1 may be used for the registration under the Securities Act of securities of all registrants for which no other form is authorized or prescribed, except that this Form shall not be used for securities of foreign governments or political subdivisions thereof or asset-backed securities. The information collected is intended to ensure the adequacy of information available to investors in connection with securities offerings.

Short Statement:
The increase in burden hours of 3,883 hours and the increase in cost burden of $88,534,373 are due to an increase in the number of annual Forms S-1 responses (from 898 responses to 908 responses). The increase in cost burden also is due to the Commission’s increase in the estimated cost of outside professionals (from $400 per hour to $600 per hour).
