North Dakota Implements Temporary Form D For Rule 506 Offerings

Issuers intending to make an offering under Rule 506 of federal Regulation D must file Temporary Form D (including the state appendix), a Form U-2, Uniform Consent to Service of Process, and $100 fee within 15 days after the first sale of the securities in North Dakota. A $250 fee is required if the filing is not made within the 15-day period. An original signature is not required for Parts D and E of Form D. A copy of Form D is permitted.

There is no renewal provision. The documents and fee for the original filing must be resubmitted if the offering extends beyond the one year period, except for the Form U-2 that may be incorporated by reference. No commission or remuneration may be paid for soliciting any prospective buyer in North Dakota except for a commission paid to a North Dakota-registered broker-dealer or agent.
