The subject matter of the Open Meeting on Wednesday, June 20, 2007 will be:
1. The Commission will consider whether to adopt amendments to expand its interactive data voluntary reporting program to permit mutual funds to submit as exhibits to their registration statements supplemental tagged information contained in the risk/return summary section of their prospectuses. The risk/return summary section contains key mutual fund information, including investment objectives and strategies, risks, and costs.
2. The Commission will consider whether to propose amendments to Form 20-F, Rules 3-10 and 4-01 of Regulation S-X, Forms F-4 and S-4, and Rule 701 under the Securities Act, to accept financial statements prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as published by the International Accounting Standards Board without reconciliation to generally accepted accounting principles as used in the United States when contained in the filings of foreign private issuers with the Commission.
3. The Commission will consider whether to adopt amendments to the proxy rules under the Exchange Act to provide shareholders with the ability to choose the means by which they access proxy materials. Under the amendments, issuers and other soliciting persons will post their proxy materials on an Internet Web site and provide shareholders with a notice of the Internet availability of the materials. The issuer or soliciting person may choose to furnish paper copies of the proxy materials along with the notice. If the issuer or soliciting person chooses not to furnish a paper copy of the proxy materials along with the notice, a shareholder may request delivery of a copy at no charge to the shareholder.
At times, changes in Commission priorities require alterations in the scheduling of meeting items. For further information and to ascertain what, if any, matters have been added, deleted or postponed, please contact:
