ItemDescription
NSMIA PreemptionSection 18 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended by the National Securities Markets Improvement Act of 1996 (NSMIA), preempts state registration and qualification requirements for 'covered securities,' which include securities listed or authorized for listing on the NYSE. Accordingly, no state registration or qualification is required for the offering of CBR common stock on the NYSE. Certain states, however, require notice filings, fee payments, and/or consent to service of process.
Covered SecurityCommon Stock of Calloway-Briggs Renewables Inc. to be listed on the New York Stock Exchange under proposed ticker symbol CBRI qualifies as a 'covered security' under Section 18(b)(1) of the Securities Act.
Notice FilingA filing with a state securities regulator that provides notice of the offering of covered securities in or into the state. Does not constitute state registration or qualification.
Form U-2Uniform Consent to Service of Process — a standard form by which the issuer irrevocably appoints the state securities administrator as its agent for service of process in connection with actions arising from the offering.
Status: Pending — Offering DormantThe IPO of Calloway-Briggs Renewables Inc. was placed in dormant status on June 17, 2022 following the mutual decision of the Company and the underwriters to postpone the offering due to deteriorating market conditions in the renewables sector. No blue sky filings have been made. All filings remain pending and will be completed upon reactivation of the offering.
Reactivation Steps — Blue SkyUpon reactivation: (1) confirm current fee schedules for each state; (2) update Form U-2 as needed; (3) coordinate with Ridgeway Financial Printing Corp. (Alan Greenidge) for EDGAR and state filing logistics; (4) file notice filings and Form U-2s concurrently with or prior to the first sale of shares; (5) confirm secondary-market trading exemptions for all 50 states and DC.
Secondary-Market TradingFollowing the IPO, secondary-market trading of CBR common stock on the NYSE is generally exempt from state blue sky registration requirements as sales of covered securities. No additional state filings are expected to be required for secondary-market trading.
