OAR 441-065-0035: Registration by Multijurisdictional Coordination

(1) Securities for which a registration statement has been filed under the Securities Act of 1933 on Securities and Exchange Commission Forms F-7, F-8, F-9 or F-10 in connection with the same offering may be registered by multijurisdictional coordination. (2) A registration statement filed with the Director under this rule shall contain the following information and be accompanied by the following documents as applicable: (a) An appropriate registration fee as set in OAR 441-065-0001; (b) An executed registration application on Form U-1; (c) One copy of the latest form of prospectus filed under the Securities Act of 1933; (d) If the Director requests, any other information, or copies of any other documents, filed under the Securities Act of 1933; and (e) An undertaking to forward all amendments to the federal registration statement, other than an amendment which merely delays the effective date of the registration statement, promptly and in any event not later than the first business day after the day they are forwarded to or filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, whichever first occurs. (3) A registration statement under this rule automatically becomes effective at the moment the federal registration becomes effective if all the following conditions are satisfied: (a) No order is in effect or proceeding is pending pursuant to ORS 59.105; (b) The application for registration and all required documents have been on file with the Director for seven calendar days or such shorter period as the Director permits by rule or otherwise; and (c) A statement of the maximum and minimum proposed offering prices and the maximum underwriting discounts and commissions have been on file for two full business days or such shorter period as the Director permits by rule or otherwise and the offering is made within those limitations. The registrant shall promptly notify the Director by telephone or otherwise of the date and time when the federal registration statement became effective and the content of the price amendment, if any, and shall promptly file a post-effective amendment containing the information and documents in the price amendment. “Price amendment” means the final federal amendment which includes a statement of the offering price, underwriting and selling discounts or commissions, amount of proceeds, conversion rates, call prices, and other matters dependent upon the offering price. Upon failure to receive the required notification and post-effective amendment with respect to the price amendment, the Director may institute proceedings to suspend or revoke the registration pursuant to ORS 59.105. (4) If the federal registration statement becomes effective before all the conditions specified in section (3) of this rule are satisfied, and those pending conditions are not waived, the registration statement automatically becomes effective as soon as all the conditions are satisfied. If the registrant advises the Director of the date when the federal registration statement is expected to become effective, the Director shall promptly advise the registrant by telephone or otherwise, at the registrant’s expense, whether all the conditions are satisfied and whether the Director then contemplates the institution of a proceeding pursuant to ORS 59.105. This advice by the Director does not preclude the institution of such a proceeding at any time. (5) A registration under this rule remains effective for a period of 12 months from the initial date of effectiveness unless earlier terminated by the registrant or the Director. A registrant may renew a registration under this rule by meeting the requirements of this rule. (6) For purposes of this rule, financial statements and financial information which have been prepared in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles, consistently applied, and which have been accepted by the Securities and Exchange Commission for inclusion in Form F-7, F-8, F-9 or F-10, with or without reconciliation to United States generally accepted accounting principles, consistently applied, will be accepted. (7) Any person, not otherwise licensed in Oregon, who is a bona fide officer, director or employee of an issuer whose securities are registered pursuant to this rule and who is not otherwise compensated in connection with the sale of the registered securities, is exempt from the licensing requirements of OAR chapter 441, division 175 pursuant to OAR 441-175-0020 through 441-175-0040. (8) Any person, not otherwise licensed in Oregon, who serves as a dealer manager for an exchange offer of securities which have been registered pursuant to this rule and who does not perform any active solicitation in this state, is exempt from the licensing requirements of OAR chapter 441, division 175 pursuant to OAR 441-175-0020 through 441-175-0040.
