Penny Stock Regulation.
Shares of our common stock are subject to rules adopted the Securities and Exchange Commission that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in "penny stocks". Penny stocks are generally equity securities with a price of less than $5.00 (other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the NASDAQ system, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in those securities is provided by the exchange or system). These penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from these rules to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the Securities and Exchange Commission, which contains the following:
·
a description of the nature and level of risk in the market for penny stocks in both public offerings and secondary trading;
·
a description of the broker's or dealer's duties to the customer and of the rights and remedies available to the customer with respect to violation to such duties or other requirements of securities' laws
·
a brief, clear, narrative description of a dealer market, including "bid" and "ask" prices for penny stocks and the significance of the spread between the "bid" and "ask" price;
·
a toll-free telephone number for inquiries on disciplinary actions;
·
definitions of significant terms in the disclosure document or in the conduct of trading in penny stocks; and
·
such other information and is in such form (including language, type, size and format), as the Securities and Exchange Commission shall require by rule or regulation.
Prior to effecting any transaction in penny stock, the broker-dealer also must provide the customer the following:
·
the bid and offer quotations for the penny stock;
·
the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction:
·
the number of shares to which such bid and ask prices apply, or other comparable information relating to the depth and liquidity of the market for such stock; and
·
monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account.
In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from these rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written acknowledgment of the receipt of a risk disclosure statement, a written agreement to transactions involving penny stocks, and a signed and dated copy of a written suitability statement. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the trading activity in the secondary market for a stock that becomes subject to the penny stock rules. Holders of shares of our common stock may have difficulty selling those shares because our common stock is subject to penny stock rules.
