Open in Lexace · Ask the AI about this section
A.  A registration statement may be filed by the issuer, a
person on whose behalf the offering is to be made, or a broker-
dealer registered under this act.
B.  A person filing a registration statement shall pay the
filing fee set forth in Section 1-612 of this title.  If a
registration statement is withdrawn before the effective date or a
preeffective stop order is issued under Section 1-306 of this title,
the Administrator shall retain the fee.
C.  A registration statement filed under Section 1-303 and 1-304
of this title must specify:
1.  The amount of securities to be offered in this state;
2.  The states in which a registration statement or similar
record in connection with the offering has been or is to be filed;
and
3.  Any adverse order, judgment, or decree issued in connection
with the offering by a state securities regulator, the Securities
and Exchange Commission, or a court.
D.  A record filed under this act within five (5) years
preceding the filing of a registration statement may be incorporated
by reference in the registration statement to the extent that the
record is currently accurate.
E.  In the case of a nonissuer distribution, information or a
record may not be required under subsection I of this section or
Section 1-304 of this title, unless it is known to the person filing
the registration statement or to the person on whose behalf the
distribution is to be made or unless it can be furnished by those
persons without unreasonable effort or expense.
F.  A rule adopted or order issued under this act may require as
a condition of registration that a security issued within the
previous five (5) years or to be issued to a promoter for a
consideration substantially less than the public offering price or
to a person for a consideration other than cash be deposited in
escrow; and that the proceeds from the sale of the registered
security in this state be impounded until the issuer receives a
specified amount from the sale of the security either in this state
or elsewhere.  The conditions of any escrow or impoundment required

under this subsection may be established by rule adopted or order
issued under this act, but the Administrator may not reject a
depository institution solely because of its location in another
state.
G.  A rule adopted or order issued under this act may require as
a condition of registration that a security registered under this
act be sold only on a specified form of subscription or sale
contract and that a signed or conformed copy of each contract be
filed under this act or preserved for a period specified by the rule
or order, which may not be longer than five (5) years.
H.  Except while a stop order is in effect under Section 1-306
of this title, a registration statement is effective for one (1)
year after its effective date, or for any longer period designated
in an order under this act during which the security is being
offered or distributed in a nonexempted transaction by or for the
account of the issuer or other person on whose behalf the offering
is being made or by an underwriter or broker-dealer that is still
offering part of an unsold allotment or subscription taken as a
participant in the distribution.  For the purposes of a nonissuer
transaction, all outstanding securities of the same class identified
in the registration statement as a security registered under this
act are considered to be registered while the registration statement
is effective.  If any securities of the same class are outstanding,
a registration statement may not be withdrawn until one (1) year
after its effective date.  A registration statement may be withdrawn
only with the approval of the Administrator.
I.  While a registration statement is effective, the person that
filed the registration statement shall file reports, not more often
than quarterly, to keep the information or other record in the
registration statement reasonably current and to disclose the
progress of the offering.
J.  A registration statement may be amended after its effective
date.  The posteffective amendment becomes effective when the
Administrator so orders.  If a posteffective amendment is made to
increase the number of securities specified to be offered or sold,
the person filing the amendment shall pay a registration fee as
provided in Section 1-612 of this title.  A posteffective amendment
relates back to the date of the offering of the additional
securities being registered if, within one (1) year after the date
of the sale, the amendment is filed and the additional registration
fee is paid.
K.  The records of an issuer registered or required to be
registered under this act are subject to such reasonable periodic,
special, or other audits or inspections by a representative of the
Administrator, within or without this state, as the Administrator
considers necessary or appropriate in the public interest and for
the protection of investors.  An audit or inspection may be made at

any time and without prior notice.  The Administrator may copy, and
remove for audit or inspection copies of, all records the
Administrator reasonably considers necessary or appropriate to
conduct the audit or inspection.  The Administrator may assess a
reasonable charge for conducting an audit or inspection under this
subsection.
