Abstract: Form S-1 under the Securities Act is used by issuers who are not eligible to use other forms to register offering of their securities.

Emergency Justfication: The Commission did not originally propose amendments to Form S-1 and Form S-3. After considering public comments submitted in response to a request for comment in the proposing release, the Commission included amendments to these forms in the adopting release. In doing so, the Commission determined that re-proposing amendments to these forms was unnecessary before adopting these amendments, in view of the scope of the request for comment in the proposing release and the nature and scope of the amendments to these forms. See Attachments.

Burden decreases because of Program Change due to Agency Discretion: Yes

Burden Reduction Due to: Changing Regulations

Short Statement: The amendments in Release No. 33-10771 (IC-33836) will, among other things, permit issuers of “exchange-traded vehicle securities” to elect to register offerings of an indeterminate number of such securities and pay registration fees for these offerings on an annual net basis. We anticipate that the amendments will increase the paperwork burden for registration statements on Form S-1 for these offerings due to the requirement to calculate and pay registration fees on an annual net basis. We also anticipate that these amendments will result in a decrease in the number of registration statements on Form S-1 filed by these issuers, such that, overall, the amendments will reduce the paperwork burdens associated with this form. For purposes of the PRA, we estimate that, for Form S-1, the amendments will result in a net decrease of 1,141 burden hours and a net decrease in the cost burden of $1,397,932 for the services of outside professionals.
