applies to a product, no state or political
subdivision of a state may either
establish or continue in effect a
requirement dealing with the same risk
of injury unless the state requirement is
identical to the federal standard. Section
26(c) of the CPSA also provides that
states or political subdivisions of states
may apply to the Commission for an
exemption from this preemption under
certain circumstances. Section 104(b) of
the CPSIA refers to the rules to be
issued under that section as ‘‘consumer
product safety rules.’’ Therefore, the
preemption provision of section 26(a) of
the CPSA would apply to a rule issued
under section 104.

REPORT FORM BY EXEMPT REPORTING ADVISERS
IForm ADV:
General Instructions
Read these instructions carefully before filing Form ADV. Failure to follow these instructions,
properly complete the form, or pay all required fees may result in your application or report
being delayed or rejected.
In these instructions and in Form ADV, "you" means the investment adviser (i.e., the advisory
firm). If you are a "separately identifiable department or division" (SID) of a bank, "you" means
the SID, rather than your bank, unless the instructions or the form provide otherwise. If you are
a private fund adviser filing an umbrella registration, "you" means the filing adviser and each
relying adviser, unless the instructions or the form provide otherwise. The information in Items
1, 2, 3 and 10 (including corresponding schedules) should be provided for the filing adviser only.
Terms that appear in italics are defined in the Glossary of Terms to Form ADV.
Where can I get more information on Form ADV, electronic filing, and the lARD?

How is Form ADV organized?
Form ADV contains four parts:
•
Part 1A asks a number of questions about you, your business practices, the persons who
own and control you, and the persons who provide investment advice on your behalf
o All advisers registering with the SEC or any of the state securities authorities
must complete Part 1A.
o Exempt reporting advisers (that are not also registering with any state securities
authority) must complete only the following Items of Part 1A: 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 10,
and 11, as well as corresponding schedules. Exempt reporting advisers that are
registering with any state securities authority must complete all of Form ADV.
Part 1A also contains several supplemental schedules. The items of Part 1A let you know
which schedules you must complete.
o
o
o
Schedule A asks for information about your direct owners and executive officers.
Schedule B asks for information about your indirect owners.
Schedule Cis used by paper filers to update the information required by
Schedules A and B (see Instruction 18).
o ScheduleD asks for additional information for certain items in Part lA.
o ScheduleR asks for additional information about relying advisers.
o Disclosure Reporting Pages (or DRPs) are schedules that ask for details about
disciplinary events involving you or your advisory affiliates.
•
Part 1B asks additional questions required by state securities authorities. Part lB
contains three additional DRPs. If you are applying for SEC registration or are registered
only with the SEC, you do not have to complete Part lB. (If you are filing electronically
and you do not have to complete Part lB, you will not see Part lB.)
•
Part 2A requires advisers to create narrative brochures containing information about the
advisory firm. The requirements in Part 2A apply to all investment advisers registered
with or applying for registration with the SEC, but do not apply to exempt reporting
advisers.
• Part 2B requires advisers to create brochure supplements containing information about
certain supervised persons. The requirements in Part 2B apply to all investment advisers
registered with or applying for registration with the SEC, but do not apply to exempt
reporting advisers.

If you are submitting an other-than-annual amendment to your brochure,
you are not required to update your summary of material changes as
required by Item 2. You are not required to update your brochure between
annual amendments solely because the amount of client assets you manage
has changed or because your fee schedule has changed. However, if you
are updating your brochure for a separate reason in between annual
amendments, and the amount of client assets you manage listed in

If you are a state-registered adviser, you are required to file your
brochure amendments and brochure supplement amendments with
the appropriate state securities authorities through lARD.
Exempt reporting advisers:
o
Annual Updating Amendments: You must amend your Form ADV each year by
filing an annual updating amendment within 90 days after the end of your fiscal
year. When you submit your annual updating amendment, you must update your
responses to all required items, including corresponding sections of Schedules A,
B, C and D.
o
Other-than-Annual Amendments: In addition to your annual updating
amendment, you must amend your Form ADV by filing additional amendments
(other-than-annual amendments) promptly if:
o
information you provided in response to Items 1, 3, or 11 becomes
inaccurate in any way; or
o
information you provided in response to Item 10 becomes materially

Failure to update your Form ADV, as required by this instruction, is a violation of SEC
rules or similar state rules and could lead to your registration being revoked.
What is SEC umbrella registration and how can I satisfy the requirements of filing
an umbrella registration?
5.
An umbrella registration is a single registration by a filing adviser and one or more relying
advisers who advise only private funds and certain separately managed account clients that
are qualified clients and collectively conduct a single advisory business. Absent other facts
suggesting that the filing adviser and relying adviser(s) conduct different businesses,
umbrella registration is available under the following circumstances:
The filing adviser has its principal office and place of business in the United States and,
therefore, all of the substantive provisions of the Advisers Act and the rules thereunder
apply to the filing adviser's and each relying adviser's dealings with each of its clients,
regardless of whether any client or the filing adviser or relying adviser providing the
advice is a United States person.

The filing adviser and each relying adviser advise only private funds and clients in
separately managed accounts that are qualified clients and are otherwise eligible to invest
in the private funds advised by the filing adviser or a relying adviser and whose accounts
pursue investment objectives and strategies that are substantially similar or otherwise
related to those private funds.

m.
Each relying adviser, its employees and the persons acting on its behalf are subject to the
filing adviser's supervision and control and, therefore, each relying adviser, its employees
and the persons acting on its behalf are "persons associated with" the filing adviser (as
defined in section 202(a)(17) of the Advisers Act).
iv.
The advisory activities of each relying adviser are subject to the Advisers Act and the
rules thereunder, and each relying adviser is subject to examination by the SEC.
v.
The filing adviser and each relying adviser operate under a single code of ethics adopted
in accordance with SEC rule 204A-1 and a single set ofwritten policies and procedures
adopted and implemented in accordance with SEC rule 206(4)-(7) and administered by a
single chief compliance officer in accordance with that rule.
To satisfy the requirements of Form ADV while using umbrella registration the filing
adviser must sign, file, and update as required, a single Form ADV (Parts 1 and 2) that
relates to, and includes all information concerning, the filing adviser and each relying adviser
(e.g., disciplinary information and ownership information), and must include this same
information in any other reports or filings it must make under the Advisers Act or the rules
thereunder (e.g., Form PF). The filing adviser and each relying adviser must not be
prohibited from registering with the SEC by section 203A of the Advisers Act (i.e. thefiling
adviser and each relying adviser must individually qualify for SEC registration).
Unless otherwise specified, references to "you" in Form ADV refer to both the filing adviser
and each relying adviser. The information in Items 1, 2, 3 and 10 (including corresponding
schedules) should be provided for the filing adviser only. A separate ScheduleR should be
completed for each relying adviser. References to "you" in Schedule R refer to the relying
adviser only.
A filing adviser applying for registration with the SEC should complete a ScheduleR for
each relying adviser. If you are a filing adviser registered with the SEC and would like to add
or delete relying advisers from an umbrella registration, you should file an other-than-annual
amendment and add or delete Schedule Rs as needed.
Note: Umbrella registration is not available to exempt reporting advisers.
6.
Where do I sign my Form ADV application or amendment?
You must sign the appropriate Execution Page. There are three Execution Pages at the end
of the form. Your initial application, your initial report (in the case of an exempt reporting
adviser), and all amendments to Form ADV must include at least one Execution Page.
If you are applying for or are amending your SEC registration, or if you are reporting as
an exempt reporting adviser or amending your report, you must sign and submit either a:
o Domestic Investment Adviser Execution Page, if you (the advisory firm) are a
resident of the United States; or

not a resident of the United States.
•
If you are applying for or are amending your registration with a state securities authority,
you must sign and submit the State-Registered Investment Adviser Execution Page.
Who must sign my Form ADV or amendment?
7.
The individual who signs the form depends upon your form of organization:
•
•
•
•
•
For a sole proprietorship, the sole proprietor.
For a partnership, a general partner.
For a corporation, an authorized principal officer.
For a "separately identifiable department or division" (SID) of a bank, a principal officer
of your bank who is directly engaged in the management, direction, or supervision of
your investment advisory activities.
For all others, an authorized individual who participates in managing or directing your
affairs.
The signature does not have to be notarized, and in the case of an electronic filing, should be
a typed name.
8.
How do I file my Form ADV?
Complete Form ADV electronically using the Investment Adviser Registration Depository
(lARD) if:
•
You are filing with the SEC (and submitting notice filing.<; to any of the state securities
authorities), or
•
You are filing with a state securities authority that requires or permits advisers to submit
Form ADV through the lARD.
Note: SEC rules require advisers that are registered or applying for registration with the
SEC, or that are reporting to the SEC as an exempt reporting adviser, to file
electronically through the lARD system. See SEC rules 203-1 and 204-4.
To file electronically, go to the lARD website (), which contains detailed
instructions for advisers to follow when filing through the lARD.

You are filing with a state securities authority that permits (but does not require)
electronic filing and you do not file electronically.
How do I get started filing electronically?
First, obtain a copy of the lARD Entitlement Package from the following website:
. Second, request access to the lARD system for your
firm by completing and submitting the lARD Entitlement Package. The lARD Entitlement
Package must be submitted on paper. Mail the forms to: FINRA Entitlement Group, P.O.
Box 9495, Gaithersburg, MD 20898-9495.
When FINRA receives your Entitlement Package, they will assign a CRD number
(identification number for your firm) and a user I.D. code and password (identification
number and system password for the individual(s) who will submit Form ADV filings for
your firm). Your firm may request an I.D. code and password for more than one individual.
FINRA also will create a financial account for you from which the lARD will deduct filing
fees and any state fees you are required to pay. If you already have a CRD account with
FINRA, it will also serve as your lARD account; a separate account will not be established.
Once you receive your CRD number, user I.D. code and password, and you have funded your
account, you are ready to file electronically.
Questions regarding the Entitlement Process should be addressed to FINRA at 240.386.4848.
If I am applying for registration with the SEC, or amending my SEC registration,
how do I make notice filings with the state securities authorities?
10.
If you are applying for registration with the SEC or are amending your SEC registration, one
or more state securities authorities may require you to provide them with copies of your SEC
filings. We call these filings "notice filings." Your notice filings will be sent electronically
to the states that you check on Item 2.C. of Part lA The state securities authorities to which
you send notice filings may charge fees, which will be deducted from the account you
establish with FINRA To determine which state securities authorities require SECregistered advisers to submit notice filings and to pay fees, consult the relevant state
investment adviser law or state securities authority. See General Instruction 1.
If you are granted a continuing hardship exemption to file Form ADV on paper, FINRA will
enter your filing into the lARD and your notice filings will be sent electronically to the state
securities authorities that you check on Item 2.C. of Part lA
I am registered with a state. When must I switch to SEC registration?
If at the time of your annual updating amendment you meet at least one of the requirements for
SEC registration in Item 2.A(l) to (12) of Part lA, you must apply for registration with the
SEC within 90 days after you file the annual updating amendment. Once you register with the

SEC, you are subject to SEC regulation, regardless of whether you remain registered with one
or more states. See SEC rule 203A-1 (b )(2). Each of your investment adviser representatives,
however, may be subject to registration in those states in which the representative has a place
ofbusiness. See Advisers Act section 203A(b)(1); SEC rule 203A-3(a). For additional
information, consult the investment adviser laws or the state securities authority for the
particular state in which you are "doing business." See General Instruction 1.
12.
I am registered with the SEC. When must I switch to registration with a state
securities authority?
If you check box 13 in Item 2.A. of Part 1A to report on your annual updating amendment
that you are no longer eligible to register with the SEC, you must withdraw from SEC
registration within 180 days after the end of your fiscal year by filing Form ADV-W. See
SEC rule 203A-1(b)(2). You should consult state law or the state securities authority for the
states in which you are "doing business" to determine if you are required to register in these
states. See General Instruction 1. Until you file your Form ADV-W with the SEC, you will
remain subject to SEC regulation, and you also will be subject to regulation in any states
where you register. See SEC rule 203A-1(b)(2).
13.
I am an exempt reporting adviser. When must I submit my first report on Form
ADV?
•
All exempt reporting advisers:
You must submit your initial Form ADV filing within 60 days of relying on the
exemption from registration under either section 203(1) of the Advisers Act as an adviser
solely to one or more venture capital funds or section 203(m) of the Advisers Act because
you act solely as an adviser to private funds and have assets under management in the
United States ofless than $150 million.
•
Additional instruction for advisers switching from being registered to being exempt
reporting advisers:
If you are currently registered as an investment adviser (or have an application for
registration pending) with the SEC or with a state securities authority, you must file a
Form ADV-W to withdraw from registration in the jurisdictions where you are switching.
You must submit the Form ADV-W before submitting your first report as an exempt
reporting adviser.
I am an exempt reporting adviser. Is it possible that I might be required to also
register with or submit a report to a state securities authority?
Yes, you may be required to register with or submit a report to one or more state securities
authorities. If you are required to register with one or more state securities authorities, you
must complete all ofForm ADV. See General Instruction 3. If you are required to submit a
report to one or more state securities authorities, check the box(es) in Item 2.C. of Part 1A
next to the state(s) you would like to receive the report. Each of your investment adviser

What do I do if I no longer meet the definition of an "exempt reporting adviser"?

Advisers Switching to SEC Registration:
o
You may no longer be an exempt reporting adviser and may be required to register
with the SEC if you wish to continue doing business as an investment adviser. For
example, you may be relying on section 203(1) and wish to accept a client that is not
a venture capital fund as defined in SEC rule 203(1)-1, or you may have been
relying on SEC rule 203(m)-1 and reported in Section 2.B. of ScheduleD to your
annual updating amendment that you have private fund assets of $150 million or
more.
VerDate Sep<11>2014
21:02 Jul 01, 2015
If you are relying on section 203(1), unless you qualify for another
exemption, you would violate the Advisers Act's registration requirement if
you accept a client that is not a venture capital fund as defined in SEC rule
203(1)-1 before the SEC approves your application for registration. You
must submit your final report as an exempt reporting adviser and apply for
SEC registration in the same filing.

Ifyou were relying on SEC rule 203(m)-1 and you reported in Section
2.B. of ScheduleD to your annual updating amendment that you have
private fund assets of $150 million or more, you must register with the
SEC unless you qualify for another exemption. If you have complied with
all SEC reporting requirements applicable to an exempt reporting adviser
as such, you have up to 90 days after filing your annual updating
amendment to apply for SEC registration, and you may continue doing
business as a private fund adviser during this time. You must submit your
final report as an exempt reporting adviser and apply for SEC registration
in the same filing. Unless you qualify for another exemption, you would
violate the Advisers Act's registration requirement if you accept a client
that is not a private fund during this transition period before the SEC
approves your application for registration, and you must comply with all
SEC reporting requirements applicable to an exempt reporting adviser as
such during this 90-day transition period. If you have not complied with
all SEC reporting requirements applicable to an exempt reporting adviser
as such, this 90-day transition period is not available to you. Therefore, if
the transition period is not available to you, and you do not qualify for
another exemption, your application for registration must be approved by
the SEC before you meet or exceed SEC rule 203(m)-1 's $150 million
asset threshold.

You will be deemed in compliance with the Form ADV filing and reporting
requirements until the SEC approves or denies your application. If your application
is approved, you will be able to continue business as a registered adviser.
o
If you register with the SEC, you may be subject to state notice filing requirements.
To determine these requirements, consult the investment adviser laws or the state
securities authority for the particular state in which you are "doing business." See
General Instruction 1.
Note: If you are relying on SEC rule 203(m)-1 and you accept a client that is not a private
fund, you will lose the exemption provided by SEC rule 203(m)-1 immediately. To avoid
this result, you should apply for SEC registration in advance so that the SEC has approved
your registration before you accept a client that is not a private fund.
The 90-day transition period described above also applies to investment advisers with their
principal offices and places of business outside of the United States with respect to their
clients who are United States persons (e.g., the adviser would not be eligible for the 90-day
transition period if it accepted a client that is a United States person and is not a private
fund).

you must submit a final report as an exempt reporting adviser to update only Item

at 240.386.4848.
17.
What if I am not able to file electronically?
If you are required to file electronically but cannot do so, you may be eligible for one of two
types of hardship exemptions from the electronic filing requirements.
•
A temporary hardship exemption is available if you file electronically, but you
encounter unexpected difficulties that prevent you from making a timely filing with the
lARD, such as a computer malfunction or electrical outage. This exemption does not
permit you to file on paper; instead, it extends the deadline for an electronic filing for
seven business days. See SEC rules 203-3(a) and 204-4(e).
•
A continuing hardship exemption may be granted if you are a small business and you
can demonstrate that filing electronically would impose an undue hardship. You are a
small business, and may be eligible for a continuing hardship exemption, if you are
required to answer Item 12 of Part 1A (because you have assets under management of
less than $25 million) and you are able to respond "no" to each question in Item 12. See
SEC rule 0-7.
If you have been granted a continuing hardship exemption, you must complete and
submit the paper version of Form ADV to FINRA. FINRA will enter your responses into
the lARD. As discussed in General Instruction 16, FINRA will charge you a fee to
reimburse it for the expense of data entry.

If you are filing on paper because a state in which you are registered or in which you are
applying for registration allows you to submit paper instead of electronic filings, submit

Who is required to file Form ADV-NR?
Every non-resident general partner and managing agent of all SEC-registered advisers and
exempt reporting advisers, whether or not the adviser is resident in the United States, must
file Form ADV-NR in connection with the adviser's initial application or report. A general
partner or managing agent of an SEC-registered adviser or exempt reporting adviser who
becomes a non-resident after the adviser's initial application or report has been submitted
must file Form ADV-NR within 30 days. Form ADV-NR must be filed on paper (it cannot
be filed electronically).
Submit Form ADV-NR to the SEC at the following address:
Securities and Exchange Commission, 100 F Street, NE, Washington, DC 20549;
Attn: Registrations Branch.
Failure to file Form ADV-NR promptly may delay SEC consideration of your initial
application.
Sections 203 and 204 of the Advisers Act [15 U.S. C. §§ 80b-3 and 80b-4] authorize the SEC to
collect the information required by Form ADV. The SEC collects the information for regulatory
purposes, such as deciding whether to grant registration. Filing Form ADV is mandatory for
advisers who are required to register with the SEC and for exempt reporting advisers. The SEC
maintains the information submitted on this form and makes it publicly available. The SEC may
return forms that do not include required information. Intentional misstatements or omissions
constitute federal criminal violations under 18 U.S. C.§ 1001 and 15 U.S.C. § 80b-17.

SEC's Collection of Information
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 control number. The Advisers Act authorizes the
SEC to collect the information on Form ADV from investment advisers. See 15 U.S. C. §§ 80b-3
and 80b-4. Filing the form is mandatory.
The form enables the SEC to register investment advisers and to obtain information from and
about exempt reporting advisers. Every applicant for registration with the SEC as an adviser,
and every exempt reporting adviser, must file the form. See 17 C.P.R. § 275.203-1 and 204-4.
By accepting a form, however, the SEC does not make a finding that it has been completed or
submitted correctly. The form is filed annually by every adviser, no later than 90 days after the
end of its fiscal year, to amend its registration or its report. It is also filed promptly during the
year to reflect material changes. See 17 C.F .R. § 275.204-1. The SEC maintains the information
on the form and makes it publicly available through the lARD.
Anyone may send the SEC comments on the accuracy of the burden estimate on page 1 of the
form, as well as suggestions for reducing the burden. The Office of Management and Budget has
reviewed this collection of information under 44 U.S. C. § 3507.

IForm ADV:
Instructions for Part lA
These instructions explain how to complete certain items in Part 1A of Form ADV.
1. Item 1: Identifying Information
Separately Identifiable Department or Division of a Bank. If you are a "separately
identifiable department or division" (SID) of a bank, answer Item 1.A. with the full legal name
of your bank, and answer Item l.B. with your own name (the name of the department or
division) and all names under which you conduct your advisory business. In addition, your
principal office and place of business in Item 1.F. should be the principal office at which you
conduct your advisory business. In response to Item 1.1., the website addresses and social media
information you list on ScheduleD should be those that provide information about your own
activities, rather than general information about your bank.
2. Item 2: SEC Registration and SEC Report by Exempt Reporting Advisers
If you are registered or applying for registration with the SEC, you must indicate in Item 2.A.
why you are eligible to register with the SEC by checking at least one of the boxes.
Item 2.A.(1): Adviser with Regulatory Assets Under Management of$100 Million
or More. You may check box 1 only if your response to Item 5.F.(2)(c) is $100 million
or more, or you are filing an annual updating amendment with the SEC and your
response to Item 5.F.(2)(c) is $90 million or more. While you may register with the SEC
if your regulatory assets under management are at least $100 million but less than $110
million, you must apply for registration with the SEC if your regulatory assets under
management are $110 million or more. If you are a SEC-registered adviser, you may
remain registered with the SEC if your regulatory assets under management are $90
million or more. See SEC rule 203A-1(a). Part 1A Instruction 5.b. explains how to
calculate your regulatory assets under management.
If you are a state-registered adviser and you report on your annual updating amendment
that your regulatory assets under management increased to $100 million or more, you may
register with the SEC. If your regulatory assets under management increased to $110
million or more, you must apply for registration with the SEC within 90 days after you file
that annual updating amendment. See SEC rule 203A-1(b )(1) and Form ADV General

assets under management.
You must register with the SEC if you meet at least one of the following requirements:
•
You are not required to be registered as an investment adviser with the state securities
authority of the state where you maintain your principal office and place of business
pursuant to that state's investment adviser laws. If you are exempt from registration
with that state or are excluded from the definition of investment adviser in that state,
you must register with the SEC. You should consult the investment adviser laws or the
state securities authority for the particular state in which you maintain your principal
office and place of business to determine if you are required to register in that state.
See General Instruction 1.
•
You are not subject to examination by the state securities authority ofthe state where
you maintain your principal office and place of business. To determine whether such
state securities authority does not conduct such examinations, see:

currently provide advisory services under an investment advisory contract to an
investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 and the
investment company is operational (i.e., has assets and shareholders, other than just the
organizing shareholders). See sections 203A(a)(I)(B) and 203A(a)(2)(A) ofthe Advisers
Act. Advising investors about the merits of investing in mutual funds or recommending
particular mutual funds does not make you eligible to check this box.
d. Item 2.A.(6): Adviser to a Business Development Company. You may check box 6
only ifyour response to Item S.F.(2)(c) is $25 million or more of regulatory assets under
management, and you currently provide advisory services under an investment advisory
contract to a company that has elected to be a business development company pursuant to
section 54 of the Investment Company Act of 1940, that has not withdrawn the election,
and that is operational (i.e., has assets and shareholders, other than just the organizing
shareholders). See section 203A(a)(2)(A) of the Advisers Act. Part 1A Instruction S.b.
explains how to calculate your regulatory assets under management.

you only advise plan participants on allocating their investments within their pension
plans. See SEC rule 203A-2(a).
• To calculate the value of assets for purposes of this exemption, aggregate the assets of
the plans for which you provided advisory services at the end of the 12-month period.
If you provided advisory services to other plans during the 12-month period, but your
employment or contract terminated before the end of the 12-month period, you also
may include the value of those assets.
f.
Item 2.A.(S): Related Adviser. You may check box 8 only if you are eligible for the
related adviser exemption from the prohibition on SEC registration. See SEC rule 203A2(b ). You are eligible for this exemption if you control, are controlled by, or are under
common control with an investment adviser that is registered with the SEC, and you have
the same principal office and place of business as that other investment adviser. Note
that you may not rely on the SEC registration of an Internet adviser under rule 203A-2(e)
in establishing eligibility for this exemption. See SEC rule 203A-2(e)(1)(iii). If you
check box 8, you also must complete Section 2.A.(8) of Schedule D.
g. Item 2.A.(9): Adviser Expecting to be Eligible for Registration within 120 Days.
You may check box 9 only if you are eligible for the exemption from the prohibition on
SEC registration available to advisers expecting to be eligible for SEC registration within
120 days, such as a newly formed adviser. See SEC rule 203A-2(c). You are eligible for
this exemption if immediately before you file your application for registration with the
SEC,
•
you were not registered or required to be registered with the SEC or a state securities
authority; and
•
you have a reasonable expectation that you would be eligible to register with the SEC
within 120 days after the date that your registration with the SEC becomes effective.
You must file an amendment to Part 1A of your Form ADV that updates your response to
Item 2.A. within 120 days after the SEC declares your registration effective. You may
not check box 9 on your amendment; since this exemption is available only if you are not
registered, you may not "re-rely" on this exemption. Ifyou indicate on that amendment
(by checking box 13) that you are not eligible to register with the SEC, you also must file
a Form ADV-W to withdraw your SEC registration no later than 120 days after your
registration was declared effective. You should contact the appropriate state securities
authority to determine how long it may take to become state-registered sufficiently in
advance of when you are required to file Form ADV-W to withdraw from SEC
registration.

you are filing an annual updating amendment to Form ADV in which you indicate in
response to Item 5.F.(2)(c) that you have regulatory assets under management of less
than $90 million; and
you are not eligible to check any other box (other than box 13) in Item 2.A. (and are
therefore no longer eligible to remain registered with the SEC).
You must withdraw from SEC registration within 180 days after the end of your fiscal
year by filing Form ADV-W. Until you file your Form ADV-W, you will remain subject
to SEC regulation, and you also will be subject to regulation in the states in which you
register. See SEC rule 203A-1(b)(2).
k. Item 2.B.: Reporting by Exempt Reporting Advisers. You may check box 2.B.(1) only
if you qualify for the exemption from SEC registration as an adviser solely to one or
more venture capital funds. See SEC rule 203(1)-1. You may check box 2.B.(2) only if
you qualify for the exemption from SEC registration because you act solely as an adviser
to private funds and have assets under management in the United States of less than $150
million. See SEC rule 203(m)-1. You may check both boxes to indicate that you qualify
for both exemptions. You should check box 2.B.(3) if you act solely as an adviser to
private funds but you are no longer eligible to check box 2.B.(2) because you have assets
under management in the United States of $150 million or more. If you check box
2.B.(2) or (3), you also must complete Section 2.B. of Schedule D.
3. Item 3: Form of Organization
If you are a "separately identifiable department or division" (SID) of a bank, answer Item 3.A.
by checking "other." In the space provided, specify that you are a "SID of' and indicate the
form of organization of your bank. Answer Items 3.B. and 3.C. with information about your
bank.
4. Item 4: Successions
To determine if you may rely on these provisions, review "Registration of Successors to
Broker-Dealers and Investment Advisers," Investment Advisers Act Release No. 1357
(Dec. 28, 1992). If you have taken over an adviser, follow Part 1A Instruction 4.a(1),
Succession by Application. If you have changed your structure or legal status, follow
Part 1A Instruction 4.a(2), Succession by Amendment. If either (1) you are a "separately

a. Succession of an SEC-Registered Adviser. If you ( 1) have taken over the business of
an investment adviser or (2) have changed your structure or legal status (e.g., form of
organization or state of incorporation), a new organization has been created, which has
registration obligations under the Advisers Act. There are different ways to fulfill these
obligations. You may rely on the registration provisions discussed in the General
Instructions, or you may be able to rely on special registration provisions for "successors"
to SEC-registered advisers, which may ease the transition to the successor adviser's
registration.

investment adviser, and you are taking over your bank's advisory business; or (2) you are
a SID currently registered as an investment adviser, and your bank is taking over your
advisory business, then follow Part IA Instruction 4.a(l), Succession by Application.
(1) Succession by Application. If you are not registered with the SEC as an adviser, and
you are acquiring or assuming substantially all of the assets and liabilities of the
advisory business of an SEC-registered adviser, file a new application for registration
on Form ADV. You will receive new registration numbers. You must file the new
application within 30 days after the succession. On the application, make sure you
check "yes" to Item 4.A., enter the date of the succession in Item 4.B., and complete
Section 4 of Schedule D.
Until the SEC declares your new registration effective, you may rely on the
registration of the adviser you are acquiring, but only if the adviser you are acquiring
is no longer conducting advisory activities. Once your new registration is effective, a
Form ADV-W must be filed with the SEC to withdraw the registration of the acquired
adviser.
(2) Succession by Amendment. If you are a new investment adviser formed solely as a
result of a change in form of organization, a reorganization, or a change in the
composition of a partnership, and there has been no practical change in control or
management, you may amend the registration of the registered investment adviser to
reflect these changes rather than file a new application. You will keep the same
registration numbers, and you should not file a Form ADV-W. On the amendment,
make sure you check "yes" to Item 4.A., enter the date of the succession in Item 4.B.,
and complete Section 4 of Schedule D. You must submit the amendment within 30
days after the change or reorganization.
b. Succession of a State-Registered Adviser. If you (1) have taken over the business of an
investment adviser or (2) have changed your structure or legal status (e.g., form of
organization or state of incorporation), a new organization has been created, which has
registration obligations under state investment adviser laws. There may be different ways
to fulfill these obligations. You should contact each state in which you are registered to
determine that state's requirements for successor registration. See Form ADV General

b. Item S.F: Calculating Your Regulatory Assets Under Management. In determining
the amount of your regulatory assets under management, include the securities portfolios
for which you provide continuous and regular supervisory or management services as of
the date of filing this Form ADV.
(1) Securities Portfolios. An account is a securities portfolio if at least 50% of the total
value of the account consists of securities. For purposes of this 50% test, you may treat
cash and cash equivalents (i.e., bank deposits, certificates of deposit, bankers
acceptances, and similar bank instruments) as securities. You must include securities
portfolios that are:
(a) your family or proprietary accounts;
(b) accounts for which you receive no compensation for your services; and
(c) accounts of clients who are not United States persons.
For purposes of this definition, treat all of the assets of a private fund as a securities
portfolio, regardless of the nature of such assets. For accounts of private funds,
moreover, include in the securities portfolio any uncalled commitment pursuant to
which a person is obligated to acquire an interest in, or make a capital contribution to,
the private firnd.
(2) Value of Portfolio. Include the entire value of each securities portfolio for which you
provide continuous and regular supervisory or management services. If you provide
continuous and regular supervisory or management services for only a portion of a
securities portfolio, include as regulatory assets under management only that portion of
the securities portfolio for which you provide such services. Exclude, for example, the
portion of an account:
(a) under management by another person; or
(b) that consists of real estate or businesses whose operations you "manage" on behalf
of a client but not as an investment.
Do not deduct any outstanding indebtedness or other accrued but unpaid liabilities.
General Criteria. You provide continuous and regular supervisory or management
services with respect to an account if:
(a) you have discretionary authority over and provide ongoing supervisory or
management services with respect to the account; or

(3) Continuous and Regular Supervisory or Management Services.

Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 127 / Thursday, July 2, 2015 / Proposed Rules
IFmm ADV:

(b) you do not have discretionaty authority over the account, but you have ongoing
responsibility to select or make recommendations, based upon the needs of the
client, as to specific securities or other investments the account may purchase or sell
and, if such recommendations are accepted by the client, you are responsible for
arranging or effecting the purchase or sale.
Factors. You should consider the following factors in evaluating whether you provide
continuous and regular supervisory or management services to an account.
(a) Terms of the advisory contract. If you agree in an advisory contract to provide
ongoing management services, this suggests that you provide these services for the
account. Other provisions in the contract, or your actual management practices,
however, may suggest otherwise.
(b) Form of compensation. If you are compensated based on the average value of the
client's assets you manage over a specified period of time, that suggests that you
provide continuous and regular supervisory or management services for the
account. If you receive compensation in a manner similar to either of the
following, that suggests you do not provide continuous and regular supervisory or
management services for the account -(i) you are compensated based upon the time spent with a client during a client
visit; or
(ii) you are paid a retainer based on a percentage of assets covered by a financial
plan.
(c) Management practices. The extent to which you actively manage assets or
provide advice bears on whether the services you provide are continuous and
regular supervisory or management services. The fact that you make infrequent
trades (e.g., based on a "buy and hold" strategy) does not mean your services are
not "continuous and regular."
Examples. You may provide continuous and regular supervisory or management
services for an account if you:
(a) have discretionary authority to allocate client assets among various mutual funds;
(b) do not have discretionary authority, but provide the same allocation services, and
satisfy the criteria set forth in Instruction 5.b.(3);
(d) you are a broker-dealer and treat the account as a brokerage account, but only if
you have discretionary authority over the account.
You do not provide continuous and regular supervisory or management services for
an account if you:

(c) allocate assets among other managers (a "manager of managers"), but only ifyou
have discretionary authority to hire and fire managers and reallocate assets
among them; or

(a) provide market timing recommendations (i.e., to buy or sell), but have no ongoing
management responsibilities;
(b) provide only impersonal investment advice (e.g., market newsletters);
(c) make an initial asset allocation, without continuous and regular monitoring and
reallocation; or
(d) provide advice on an intermittent or periodic basis (such as upon client request, in
response to a market event, or on a specific date (e.g., the account is reviewed and
adjusted quarterly)).
(4) Value of Regulatory Assets Under Management. Determine your regulatory assets
under management based on the current market value of the assets as determined within
90 days prior to the date of filing this Form ADV. Determine market value using the
same method you used to report account values to clients or to calculate fees for
investment advisory services.
In the case of a private fund, determine the current market value (or fair value) of the
private fund's assets and the contractual amount of any uncalled commitment pursuant
to which a person is obligated to acquire an interest in, or make a capital contribution
to, the private fund.
(5) Example. This is an example of the method of determining whether an account of a
client other than a private fund may be included as regulatory assets under
management.
The client's portfolio consists of the following:
$ 6,000,000 stocks and bonds
$ 1,000,000 cash and cash equivalents
$ 3,000,000 non-securities (collectibles, commodities, real estate, etc.)
$10 000 000 Total Assets
First, is the account a securities portfolio? The account is a securities portfolio
because securities as well as cash and cash equivalents (which you have chosen to
include as securities) ($6,000,000 + $1,000,000 = $7,000,000) comprise at least 50% of
the value of the account (here, 70%). (See Instruction 5.b(1)).
Third, what is the entire value of the account? The entire value of the account
($10,000,000) is included in the calculation ofthe adviser's total regulatory assets
under management.

Second, does the account receive continuous and regular supervisory or
management services? The entire account is managed on a discretionary basis and is
provided ongoing supervisory and management services, and therefore receives
continuous and regular supervisory or management services. (See Instruction 5.b.(3)).

6. Item 7: Financial Industry Affiliations and Private Fund Reporting
Item 7.A. and Section 7.A. of ScheduleD ask questions about you and your related persons'
financial industry affiliation. If you are filing an umbrella registration, you should not check
Item 7.A.(2) with respect to your relying advisers, and you do not have to complete Section 7.A.
in ScheduleD for your relying advisers. You should complete ScheduleR with respect to your
relying advisers. Item 7.B. and Section 7.B. of ScheduleD ask questions about the private funds
that you advise. You are required to complete a Section 7.B.(1) of ScheduleD for each private
fund that you advise, except in certain circumstances described under Item 7 .B. and below.
a. If your principal office and place of business is outside the United States, for purposes of
Item 7 and Section 7.B. of ScheduleD you may disregard any private fund that, during
your last fiscal year, was not a United States person, was not offered in the United States,
and was not beneficially owned by any United States person.
b. When filing Section 7.B.(1) of ScheduleD for a private fund, you must acquire an
identification number for the fund by logging onto the lARD website and using the
private fund identification number generator. You must continue to use the same
identification number whenever you amend Section 7.B.(l) for that fund. If you file a
Section 7 .B. (I) for a private fund for which an identification number has already been
acquired by another adviser, you must not acquire a new identification number, but must
instead utilize the existing number. If you choose to complete a single Section 7.B.(1) for
a master-feeder arrangement under instruction 6.d. below, you must acquire an
identification number also for each feeder fund.
c. If any private fund has issued two or more series (or classes) of equity interests whose
values are determined with respect to separate portfolios of securities and other assets,
then each such series (or class) should be regarded as a separate private fund. In Section
7.B.(l) and 7.B.(2) of ScheduleD, next to the name of the private .fimd, list the name and
identification number of the specific series (or class) for which you are filing the sections.
This only applies with respect to series (or classes) that you manage as if they were
separate funds and not a fund's side pockets or similar arrangements.
(1) Question 11: State the gross assets for the master-feeder arrangement as a whole.
(2) Question 12: List the lowest minimum investment commitment applicable to any of
the master fund and the feeder funds.

Schedule D), instead of completing a Section 7.B.(l) for each of the master fund and each
feeder fund, you may complete a single Section 7.B.(1) for the master-feeder
arrangement under the name of the master fund if the answers to questions 8, 10, 21 and
23 through 28 are the same for all of the feeder funds (or, in the case of questions 24 and
25, if the feeder funds do not use a prime broker or custodian). Ifyou choose to complete
a single Section 7.B.(l), you should disregard the feeder funds, except for the following:

(3) Questions 13-16: Answer by aggregating all investors in the master-feeder
arrangement (but do not count the feeder funds themselves as investors).

master fund or the feeder funds. In answering the questions, moreover, disregard the
feeder funds' investment in the master fund.
(5) Question 22: List all of the Form D SEC file numbers of any of the master fund and
feeder funds.
e. Additional Instructions:
(1) Question 9: Investment in Registered Investment Companies: For purposes of
this question, disregard any open-end management investment company regulated as
a money market fund under rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act if the
private fund invests in such a company in reliance on rule 12dl-1 under the same Act.
(2) Question 10: Type of Private Fund: For purposes of this question, the following
definitions apply:
"Hedge fund" means any private fund (other than a securitized asset fund):
(a) with respect to which one or more investment advisers (or related persons of
investment advisers) may be paid a performance fee or allocation calculated
by taking into account unrealized gains (other than a fee or allocation the
calculation of which may take into account unrealized gains solely for the
purpose of reducing such fee or allocation to reflect net unrealized losses);
(b) that may borrow an amount in excess of one-half of its net asset value
(including any committed capital) or may have gross notional exposure in
excess of twice its net asset value (including any committed capital); or
(c) that may sell securities or other assets short or enter into similar transactions
(other than for the purpose of hedging currency exposure or managing
duration).
A commodity pool is categorized as a hedge fund solely for purposes of this question.
For purposes of this definition, do not net long and short positions. Include any
borrowings or notional exposure of another person that are guaranteed by the private
fund or that the private fund may otherwise be obligated to satisfy.
"Private equity fund" means any private fund that is not a hedge fund, liquidity
fund, real estate fund, securitized asset fund, or venture capital fund and does not
provide investors with redemption rights in the ordinary course.

include in calculating your regulatory assets under management according to
instruction 5.b above.
