Answer(s): B
A viatical settlement is an arrangement under which a terminally ill person sells a second party his life insurance policy at a discount from its face value. When the terminally ill person dies, the buyer of the policy receives its face value. Some states consider viatical settlements to be securities, and they have come under the scrutiny of the NASAA since there is a significant potential for fraud in the writing of these contracts.

Assuming the security is not registered under the Uniform Securities Act, which of the following would not be exempt from state registration?
Answer(s): C
A stock that is listed on the OTC Bulletin Board would not be exempt from state registration unless it already happens to be registered under the Uniform Securities Act. Variable annuities and stocks listed on the American Stock Exchange are classified as federal covered securities by the NSMIA of 1996 and are exempt from state registration. An amendment to the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 exempts option contracts from state registration.
Under the Uniform Securities Act, which of the following does not need to be included when filing to register a security issue with the state?
Answer(s): D
The Uniform Securities Act specifies that the initial registration statement should be accompanied by all of the documents listed in the first three selections-a copy of the firm’s articles of incorporation and bylaws or their equivalent; copies of any underwriter agreements; and a copy of any indenture that applies to the security being registered. Moreover, these are only some of the documents that need to be included.
For how long after the effective date is a security’s registration valid?
A security’s registration is valid for one year after the effective date, which is the date the Administrator approves the registration. If the entire issue has not been sold in this time frame, the offering may be renewed.

Under the 2002 Uniform Securities Act, registration by coordination allows securities that are not federal covered securities to be registered simultaneously with the SEC and with the states in which the securities will be offered for sale. Federal covered securities are exempt from state registration and are required to submit only a notice filing with the Administrator of the state. This is not the same as registration by coordination.
Newbie Corporation is considering the possibility of an interstate initial public offering (IPO) of its stock. In the initial meetings with BigFee Investment Bankers, Newbie has learned that the underwriting spread will be 15%. Although the actual offering price won’t be set until Newbie’s registration statement is approved by the SEC, BigFee has indicated that the offer price will probably be between $3 and $4 a share and that the stock will initially be listed on the OTC Bulletin Board.What methods for state registration does Newbie have available?I) registration by coordinationII) registration by notificationIII) registration by qualification
Newbie may apply for state registration using either the registration by coordination or the registration by qualification method, although the latter method is the most burdensome of the three. The firm is not eligible to register by notification. To be eligible, the offer price of the IPO would have to be at least $5, and the underwriting spread would need to be no greater than 10%.
