SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[SEC File No. 270-245, OMB Control No. 3235-0204]

Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request Extension: Rule 19d-3

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. ) ("PRA"), the Securities and Exchange Commission ("Commission") has submitted to the Office of Management and Budget ("OMB") a request for approval of extension of the previously approved collection of information provided for in Rule 19d-3 (17 CFR 240.19d-3) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (17 U.S.C. 78a et seq. ).

Rule 19d-3 prescribes the form and content of applications to the Commission by persons seeking Commission review of final disciplinary actions against them taken by self-regulatory organizations ("SROs") for which the Commission is the appropriate regulatory agency. The Commission uses the information provided in the application filed pursuant to Rule 19d-3 to review final actions taken by SROs including: (1) final disciplinary sanctions; (2) denial or conditioning of membership, participation or association; and (3) prohibitions or limitations of access to services offered by a SRO or member thereof.

The staff estimates that 32 respondents will file one application pursuant to Rule 19b-3 each year. The staff estimates that the average number of hours necessary to comply with the requirements of Rule 19d-3 is approximately eighteen hours. We estimate that approximately 16 firms or natural persons would draft the applications themselves, and therefore incur an hour burden of 18 hours each (a total hour burden of 288), and that 16 would hire outside counsel, and therefore incur a cost burden of $8,496 each (a total cost burden of $135,936).

An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information under the PRA unless it displays a currently valid OMB 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 by July 18, 2022 to (i) www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain and (ii) David Bottom, Director/Chief Information Officer, Securities and Exchange Commission, c/o John Pezzullo, 100 F Street NE, Washington, DC 20549, or by sending an email to: PRA_Mailbox@sec.gov.

Dated: June 13, 2022.

J. Matthew DeLesDernier,

Assistant Secretary.
