I. Overview of the Amendment
Regulation FD provides that when an
issuer, or person acting on its behalf,
discloses material nonpublic
information to certain enumerated
persons (in general, securities market
professionals and holders of the issuer’s
securities who may trade on the basis of
the information), it must make public
disclosure of that information.3 Section
939B of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street
Reform and Consumer Protection Act of
2010 (the ‘‘Act’’) requires the
Commission to ‘‘revise Regulation FD
(17 CFR 243.100) to remove from such
regulation the exemption for entities
whose primary business is the issuance
of credit ratings (17 CFR
243.100(b)(2)(iii))’’ within 90 days after
the date of enactment.4 The effective
date of the legislation is July 21, 2010
and our revised rule will be effective for
disclosure made on or after October 4,
2010.
II. Discussion of the Amendment
As required by the Act, we are
amending Regulation FD to remove the
specific exemption provided to
nationally recognized statistical rating
organizations and credit rating agencies
for disclosure made to them for the
purpose of determining or monitoring a
credit rating. To effectuate this change,
we are removing Rule 100(b)(2)(iii) of
Regulation FD. Due to the removal of
Rule 100(b)(2)(iii), we are re-designating
Rule 100(b)(2)(iv) as Rule 100(b)(2)(iii).
Regulation FD is designed to address
the problem of selective disclosure
made to those who would reasonably be
expected to trade securities on the basis
of the information or provide others
with advice about securities trading.5
Under Regulation FD, the timing of the
required public disclosure of material
nonpublic information that is provided
by an issuer, or persons acting on its
behalf, to certain enumerated persons
depends on whether the selective
disclosure was intentional. For an
intentional selective disclosure, the
issuer must make public disclosure
simultaneously. In other circumstances,
the issuer must make public disclosure
promptly. Under the regulation, the
required public disclosure may be made
by filing or furnishing a Form 8–K,6 or
by another method or combination of
methods that is reasonably designed to
provide broad, non-exclusionary

distribution of the information to the
public.7
Under Rule 100(b)(2)(iii) of
Regulation FD, the issuer or person
acting on the issuer’s behalf need not
make the public disclosure if the
disclosure of material nonpublic
information is made to a credit rating
agency that makes its credit ratings
publicly available, or is made pursuant
to Rule 17g–5(a)(3) 8 to a nationally
recognized statistical rating
organization. As required by Section
939B of the Act, we are removing the
exemption specifically available to these
entities under Regulation FD.9
III. Procedural and Other Matters
The Administrative Procedure Act
(‘‘APA’’) generally requires an agency to
publish notice of a proposed rulemaking
in the Federal Register.10 This
requirement does not apply, however, if
the agency ‘‘for good cause finds * * *
that notice and public procedure
thereon are impracticable, unnecessary,
or contrary to the public interest.’’ 11 The
revision to Regulation FD that the
Commission is adopting is required by
Section 939B of the Act by the
legislatively required date. Unless the
rule and form amendments become
effective by that date, issuers may be
confused regarding their disclosure and
reporting obligations. The Commission
is required by statute to remove the
specific exemption for disclosure
provided to nationally recognized
statistical rating organizations and
credit rating agencies. Because this
revision is required by Congress, it does
not involve the exercise of Commission
discretion or policy judgments. For
these reasons, the Commission finds
that good cause exists to dispense with
a public notice and comment period for
these amendments because notice and
comment would be unnecessary,
impracticable and contrary to the public
interest.12
7 17
CFR 243.101(e).
CFR 240.17g–5(a)(3).
9 Regulation FD also provides exemptions for
communications made to a person who owes the
issuer a duty of trust or confidence—i.e., a
‘‘temporary insider’’—such as an attorney,
investment banker, or accountant (17 CFR
243.100(b)(2)(i)), to any person who expressly
agrees to maintain the information in confidence
(17 CFR 243.100(b)(2)(ii)), and in connection with
most offerings of securities registered under the
Securities Act (17 CFR 243.100(b)(2)(iv)). These
exemptions are unaffected by the Act.
10 See 5 U.S.C. 553(b).
11 5 U.S.C. 553(b).
12 The Regulatory Flexibility Act requires
agencies to prepare analyses for rulemaking only
when the APA requires general notice of proposed
rulemaking. 5 U.S.C. 603(a). The Regulatory
Flexibility Act does not apply to the rules we adopt
today because, as noted above, the Commission is

The Commission is taking this action
to implement the Act. Thus, any costs
and benefits to the economy resulting
from the amendments are mandated by
the Act. Section 23(a)(2) 13 of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934
(‘‘Exchange Act’’) 14 requires us, when
adopting rules under the Exchange Act,
to consider the anti-competitive effect of
any rules we adopt. Further, Section 3(f)
of the Exchange Act 15 and Section 2(c)
of the Investment Company Act of
1940 16 require us, when engaging in
rulemaking where we are required to
consider or determine whether an action
is necessary or appropriate in the public
interest, to consider, in addition to the
protection of investors, whether the
action will promote efficiency,
competition and capital formation.
While the amendments may affect
efficiency, competition and capital
formation, the action we are taking
today is required by the Act and
imposes no burden on efficiency,
competition and capital formation that
is not consistent with implementation of
the Act.

IV. Paperwork Reduction Act
Certain provisions of Regulation FD
contain ‘‘collection of information’’
requirements within the meaning of the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995.17 An
agency may not conduct or sponsor, and
a person is not required to respond to,
a collection of information unless it
displays a currently valid OMB control
number. Compliance with the
disclosure requirements is mandatory.
There is no mandatory retention period
for the information disclosed, and
responses to the disclosure
requirements will not be kept
confidential.
The titles for the collections are
(1) Form 8–K, and (2) Reg FD–Other
Disclosure Materials. OMB approved the
regulation’s information collection
requirements. Form 8–K (OMB Control
No. 3235–0060) was adopted pursuant
to Sections 13,18 15,19 and 23 20 of the
Exchange Act, and Regulation FD–Other
Disclosure Materials (OMB Control No.

Sections 13, 15, 23, and 36 21 of the

As discussed in the Regulation FD
proposing 22 and adopting releases,23 in
many cases, information disclosed
under Regulation FD would be
information that an issuer ultimately
was going to disclose to the public.
Under Regulation FD, that issuer likely
will not make any more public
disclosure than it otherwise would, but
it may make the disclosure sooner and
it is required to file or disseminate that
information in a manner reasonably
designed to provide broad, nonexclusionary distribution of the
information to the public. Following the
amendments adopted today, reporting
persons will remain obligated to
disclose the same information that they
were previously required to report on
these forms. We therefore believe that
the overall information collection
burden will remain approximately the
same because the same transactions will
remain reportable.

ACTION: Direct final rule.
AGENCY:
On May 19, 2010, the
Secretary of the Interior separated the
responsibilities previously performed by
the former Minerals Management
Service (MMS) and reassigned those
responsibilities to three separate
organizations. As part of this
reorganization, the Secretary renamed
MMS’s Minerals Revenue Management
Program (MRM) the Office of Natural
Resources Revenue (ONRR) and
directed that ONRR transition to the
Office of the Assistant Secretary—
Policy, Management and Budget (PMB).
This change requires reorganization of
title 30 of the Code of Federal
Regulations (30 CFR). This direct final
rule amends chapter II in 30 CFR,
establishes a new chapter XII in 30 CFR,
removes certain regulations from
chapter II, and recodifies them in the
new chapter XII.
DATES: This rule is effective on October
1, 2010, without further action, unless
substantive adverse comment is
received by November 3, 2010. If
substantive adverse comment is
received that cannot be addressed,
Department of the Interior will publish
a timely amendment of the rule in the
Federal Register.

II. Discussion of the Amendment
As required by the Act, we are amending Regulation FD to remove the
specific exemption provided to nationally recognized statistical rating
organizations and credit rating agencies for disclosure made to them
for the purpose of determining or monitoring a credit rating. To
effectuate this change, we are removing Rule 100(b)(2)(iii) of
Regulation FD. Due to the removal of Rule 100(b)(2)(iii), we are re-
designating Rule 100(b)(2)(iv) as Rule 100(b)(2)(iii).
Regulation FD is designed to address the problem of selective
disclosure made to those who would reasonably be expected to trade
securities on the basis of the information or provide others with
advice about securities trading.\5\ Under Regulation FD, the timing of
the required public disclosure of material nonpublic information that
is provided by an issuer, or persons acting on its behalf, to certain
enumerated persons depends on whether the selective disclosure was
intentional. For an intentional selective disclosure, the issuer must
make public disclosure simultaneously. In other circumstances, the
issuer must make public disclosure promptly. Under the regulation, the
required public disclosure may be made by filing or furnishing a Form
8-K,\6\ or by another method or combination of methods that is
reasonably designed to provide broad, non-exclusionary distribution of

Under Rule 100(b)(2)(iii) of Regulation FD, the issuer or person
acting on the issuer's behalf need not make the public disclosure if
the disclosure of material nonpublic information is made to a credit
rating agency that makes its credit ratings publicly available, or is
made pursuant to Rule 17g-5(a)(3) \8\ to a nationally recognized
statistical rating organization. As required by Section 939B of the
Act, we are removing the exemption specifically available to these
entities under Regulation FD.\9\

III. Procedural and Other Matters
The Administrative Procedure Act (``APA'') generally requires an
agency to publish notice of a proposed rulemaking in the Federal
Register.\10\ This requirement does not apply, however, if the agency
``for good cause finds * * * that notice and public procedure thereon
are impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary to the public interest.''
\11\ The revision to Regulation FD that the Commission is adopting is
required by Section 939B of the Act by the legislatively required date.
Unless the rule and form amendments become effective by that date,
issuers may be confused regarding their disclosure and reporting
obligations. The Commission is required by statute to remove the
specific exemption for disclosure provided to nationally recognized
statistical rating organizations and credit rating agencies. Because
this revision is required by Congress, it does not involve the exercise
of Commission discretion or policy judgments. For these reasons, the
Commission finds that good cause exists to dispense with a public

interest.\12\

does not apply to the rules we adopt today because, as noted above,
the Commission is not required to solicit public comment when using
the expedited rulemaking procedures under Section 553(b) of the APA.

The Commission is taking this action to implement the Act. Thus,
any costs and benefits to the economy resulting from the amendments are

whether the action will promote efficiency, competition and capital
