Section 12.11.10.11 - APPLICATION
Current through Register Vol. 35, No. 18, September 24, 2024
A. In addition to filing a properly completed and signed form U-7 or model A of form 1-A, a company must file with the director an executed form U-1, uniform application to register securities, and a signed original form U-2, consent to service of process. References in form U-1 to SEC registration and effectiveness and questions 6 and 8(a) of form U-1 should be disregarded. Form U-1 should set forth the amount of securities being registered in this state. Once registration is effective in this state, the effective date should be noted at the bottom of the cover page of the form U-7 or model A of form 1-A. Any changed or revised disclosure document must also be signed. A company that intends to conduct a SCOR offering in two or more states should contact the states to determine if the offering can be filed for regional review. In filing for regional review, the company will, in most cases, confer with a lead state that will coordinate the review and comments of all states in which the offering is to be made. Upon completion, the offering will become effective in all these states.
B. A response shall be provided to each question in each paragraph of form U-7 or model A of form 1-A. If the question or series of questions is inapplicable, so indicate. Each answer should be clearly and concisely stated in the space provided; however, notwithstanding the specificity of the questions, responses should not involve nominal, immaterial or insignificant information. If the provided space is insufficient, additional space should be created by adding more lines. No cover other than that provided in these forms may be used.
C. The disclosure document on form U-7 or model A of form 1-A constitutes the offering circular or prospectus and either of these forms, once filled out, filed and declared effective, may be reproduced by the company by copy machine or otherwise for dissemination to potential investors. Care should be taken to assure that whichever form is used, if reproduced, is accurate, readable, and complete. Small size type, script or italic style type should not be used.
D. There must be submitted to the director an opinion of an attorney licensed to practice in a state or territory of the United States that the securities to be sold in the offering have been duly authorized and, when issued upon payment of the offering price, will be legally and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and binding on the company in accordance with their terms.
