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 proposed amendments are intended to facilitate capital formation in the public securities markets consistent with investor protection. The proposed amendments would, among other things, expand the number of issuers eligible to conduct shelf offerings on Form S-3, extend certain benefits currently reserved for WKSIs, modernize Form S-1 by expanding the ability to incorporate information by reference, preempt State securities law registration and qualification requirements for all registered offerings, and modernize certain forms and rules. For purposes of the PRA, the Commission estimates that, for Form S-1, the proposed amendments would result in a net decrease of 548 responses, a net decrease of 91,292 burden hours, and a net decrease in the cost burden of $164,324,192.
