The Securities and Exchange
Commission (the Commission) is
adopting revisions to the Electronic Data
Gathering, Analysis, and Retrieval
System (EDGAR) Filer Manual and
related rules to reflect updates to the
EDGAR system. The revisions are being
made primarily to support public
dissemination of previously submitted
draft registration statements either
under the JOBS Act or the Division of
Corporation Finance’s foreign private
issuer policy; support PDF as an official
filing format for submission type 40–33
and 40–33/A; support changes in the
beneficiary account and receiver
American Bank Association number and
name for fee payments made for filings;
and allow a future period date up to the
next business date for Form 8–K. The
EDGAR system is scheduled to be
upgraded to support this functionality
on October 1, 2012.
DATES: Effective October 15, 2012. The
incorporation by reference of the
EDGAR Filer Manual is approved by the
Director of the Federal Register as of
October 15, 2012.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: In
the Division of Corporation Finance, for
questions on draft registration
statements and Form 8–K, contact
Jeffrey Thomas at (202) 551–3600; in the
Division of Investment Management for
questions concerning submission types
40–33 and 40–33/A, contact Barry
Miller at (202) 551–6796; and in the
Office of Information Technology,
contact Rick Heroux at (202) 551–8800.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: We are
adopting an updated EDGAR Filer
Manual, Volume I and Volume II. The
Filer Manual describes the technical
formatting requirements for the
preparation and submission of
electronic filings through the EDGAR
system.1 It also describes the
requirements for filing using
EDGARLink Online and the Online
Forms/XML Web site.
The revisions to the Filer Manual
reflect changes within Volume I entitled
EDGAR Filer Manual, Volume I:
‘‘General Information,’’ Version 14
(October 2012) and Volume II entitled
EDGAR Filer Manual, Volume II:
‘‘EDGAR Filing,’’ Version 21 (October
2012). The updated manual will be
incorporated by reference into the Code
of Federal Regulations.
The Filer Manual contains all the
technical specifications for filers to
submit filings using the EDGAR system.
Filers must comply with the applicable
provisions of the Filer Manual in order
to assure the timely acceptance and
processing of filings made in electronic
format.2 Filers may consult the Filer
Manual in conjunction with our rules
governing mandated electronic filing
when preparing documents for
electronic submission.3
The EDGAR system will be upgraded
to Release 12.2 on October 1, 2012 and
will introduce the following changes:
EDGAR will be updated to support
public dissemination of the confidential
draft registration statements, submission
types DRS and DRS/A. Issuers that
submitted draft registrations either
under the JOBS Act or the Division of
Corporation Finance’s foreign private
issuer policy will be able to disseminate
their previously submitted draft
registration statements. A new
correspondence type, DRSLTR, will be
available to submit any correspondences
related to draft registration statements.
The options to disseminate draft
registration statements as well as to
create DRSLTR submissions can be
accessed by selecting the ‘‘Draft Reg.
Statement’’ link on the EDGAR Filing
Web site.
Form ID application will be updated
with ‘‘JOBS Act § 106’’ or ‘‘Foreign
Private Issuer Policy’’ options to allow
applicants to indicate that they are
submitting an application for EDGAR
access to file draft registration
statements. These options will replace
the ‘‘Access codes will be used to
submit draft registration statement’’
check box.
Submission form types 8–K, 8–K/A,
8–K12B, 8–K12B/A, 8–K12G3, 8–
K12G3/A, 8–K15D5, and 8–K15D5/A
will allow a future period date up to the
next business date from the date of
submission, if the time of submission is

EST.
EDGAR will be updated to allow filers
to submit, on a voluntary basis, copies
of litigation documents pursuant to
Section 33 of the Investment Company
Act of 1940 (submission types 40–33
and 40–33/A) in Portable Document
Format (PDF) as an official filing format.
EDGAR will continue to allow ASCII
and HTML as official filing formats for
submission types 40–33 and 40–33/A.
Starting October 1, 2012, filers
initiating FEDWIRE transactions to
make deposits to pay their filing fees
will need to use a new US Treasury
beneficiary account number
(850000001001), as well as a new
American Bank Association (ABA)
number and bank name for the receiving
bank (021030004/TREAS NYC). The
current bank account number
(152307768324) and receiving bank
ABA number and name (081000210/US
BANK) will be invalid from this date
forward. Filer may obtain the new US
Treasury account number and ABA
number from the notice posted on the
‘‘Information for EDGAR Filers’’ web
page prior to October 1, 2012 and by
accessing the updated ‘‘Instructions for
Wire Transfer (FEDWIRE) and Check
Payment of SEC Filing Fees’’ by logging
onto the EDGAR Filing Web site and
accessing the ‘‘Fees’’ link on the EDGAR
menu thereafter.
The new online version of Form N–
SAR, originally planned for deployment
on July 9, 2012, has been delayed and
will not go into production any sooner
than January 14th 2013. The specific
deployment date will be announced on
the Commission’s public Web site’s
‘‘Information for EDGAR Filers’’ page
(https://www.sec.gov/info/edgar.shtml).
Filers should continue to use the
EDGAR Filer Manual, Volume III: N–
SAR Supplement to file their N–SAR
submissions. When the online version
of Form N–SAR is deployed, EDGAR
Filer Manual, Volume III: N–SAR
Supplement will be retired. Instructions
to file the online version of Form N–
SAR addressed in Chapter 9 of EDGAR
Filer Manual, Volume II: EDGAR Filing
should then be followed.
Along with the adoption of the Filer
Manual, we are amending Rule 301 of
Regulation S–T to provide for the
incorporation by reference into the Code
of Federal Regulations of today’s
revisions. This incorporation by
reference was approved by the Director
of the Federal Register in accordance
with 5 U.S.C. 552(a) and 1 CFR Part 51.
You may obtain paper copies of the
updated Filer Manual at the following

Securities and Exchange Commission,

electronic format copies on the
Commission’s Web site; the address for
the Filer Manual is https://www.sec.gov/
info/edgar.shtml.
Since the Filer Manual and the
corresponding rule changes relate solely
to agency procedures or practice,
publication for notice and comment is
not required under the Administrative
Procedure Act (APA).4 It follows that
the requirements of the Regulatory
Flexibility Act 5 do not apply.
The effective date for the updated
Filer Manual and the rule amendments
is October 15, 2012. In accordance with
the APA,6 we find that there is good
cause to establish an effective date less
than 30 days after publication of these
rules. The EDGAR system upgrade to
Release 12.2 is scheduled to become
available on October 1, 2012. The
Commission believes that establishing
an effective date less than 30 days after
publication of these rules is necessary to
coordinate the effectiveness of the
updated Filer Manual with the system
upgrade.
