Rule 236 (17 CFR 230.236) under the Securities Act of 1933 (“Securities Act”) (15 U.S.C. 77a *et seq.* ) requires issuers relying on an exemption from the Securities Act registration requirements for the public offering of fractional shares, scrip certificates or order forms, in connection with a stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, conversion, merger or similar transaction, to furnish to the Commission specified information at least 10 days prior to the offering.
The information is needed to provide public notice that an issuer is relying on the exemption. Public companies are the likely respondents. The information is needed to establish qualification for reliance on the exemption. The information provided by Rule 236 is required to obtain or retain benefits.

Approximately 10 respondents file the information required by Rule 236 at an estimated 1.5 hours per response for a total of 15 annual burden hours (1.5 hours per response × 10 responses).
