235.01
Section 235. Form 4
235.01 An insider planned to file a Form 4 to report the sale of securities of a closed-end investment company. Each shareholder in the investment company owns one share of stock, but a shareholder's voting interest is tied to its economic interest, rather than the number of shares of stock held. The staff advised that the insider must include information that would convey the amount of equity sold or purchased in the transaction. Specifically, while the insider may report on the Form 4 that one share was involved in the transaction, the insider should also include a footnote to explain the amount of equity involved in the transaction, stating: (1) the percentage held before transaction; (2) the percentage sold/purchased in the transaction; and (3) the...

233.03
Section 233. Forms 3, 4 and 5 – General
233.03 When reporting a transaction on Form 4 or Form 5, care should be taken that the characterization of securities as "Acquired (A)" or "Disposed (D)" in Table I Column 4 or Table II Column 5 is consistent with the transaction code reported in Table I Column 3 or Table II Column 4. For example, a transaction coded "P" should not report "D" in Table I Column 4 or Table II Column 5, because a purchase is not a disposition. [May 23, 2007]

233.02
Section 233. Forms 3, 4 and 5 – General
233.02 An insider may rely in good faith on the last plan statement in reporting holdings pursuant to 401(k) plans and other plans eligible for the Rule 16b-3(c) exemption on Forms 4 and 5, unless the insider is aware of subsequent plan transactions. [May 23, 2007]

233.01
Section 233. Forms 3, 4 and 5 – General
233.01 Phantom stock is a derivative security reportable on Table II of Forms 4 and 5. Accordingly, in reporting an open market purchase of common stock, an insider would not need to update phantom stock holdings. The exception to this position is where phantom stock units that settle automatically on a one-for-one basis in common stock have been reported on Table I as common stock, in reliance on the staff interpretive letters to Lincoln National Corporation (Mar. 20, 1992), Q. 3 and American Bar Association (Dec. 20, 1996), Q. 4(d)(3).

211.03
Section 211. Rule 16a-3 – Reporting Transactions and Holdings
211.03 One public company will acquire another public company. After the merger, the acquiring company will shut down the Web site of the acquired company. Under Rule 16a-3(k), any issuer that maintains a Web site is required to post Section 16 forms on its Web site. Because the acquired company will no longer exist, and its Web site will be shut down, the staff would not object if the acquiring company stopped posting the pre-acquisition Section 16 reports of the acquired company.

211.02
Section 211. Rule 16a-3 – Reporting Transactions and Holdings
211.02 Any issuer that maintains a corporate Web site must post on that Web site by the end of the business day after filing any Form 3, 4 or 5 under Section 16(a) as to the equity securities of that issuer, and must keep each such form accessible on that website for at least a 12-month period in accordance with Section 16(a)(4)(C) and Rule 16a-3(k). In a bank holding company, the bank subsidiary maintains a corporate Web site, but the bank holding company does not. The staff advised that the subsidiary Web site should be considered a corporate Web site for purposes of these posting requirements. [May 23, 2007]

211.01
Section 211. Rule 16a-3 – Reporting Transactions and Holdings
211.01 A Discretionary Transaction in a phantom stock account that is exempt pursuant to Rule 16b-3(f) is reportable under Rule 16a-3(f)(1) on Table II of Form 4 on a single line using Code "I." [May 23, 2007]

202.01
Section 202. Section 16(a) 202.01 In connection with a bank holding company formation, in which jurisdiction over a Section 12(g) entity passes from a banking agency to the Commission, officers, directors and more than 10 percent shareholders are not required to file either a Form 3 or Form 4 with the Commission to reflect the transaction establishing the holding company. However, in the interest of ownership reporting continuity, the next filing on Form 4 or Form 5 by an insider reporting a change in his or her ownership of equity securities should reflect that the holding company is the issuer for purposes of filing under Section 16(a).

Question 135.03
Question: What date should be entered for Item 3 on a Form 4 filed solely to report voluntarily a transaction that is eligible for deferred reporting on Form 5, such as a Rule 16b-5 gift or a Rule 16a-6(a) small acquisition?
Answer: Enter the transaction date reported in Column 2 of Table I (or Column 3 of Table II). In reporting the transaction, make sure that "V" is designated in Column 3 of Table I (or Column 4 of Table II). [May 23, 2007]

Question 135.02
Question: On Form 4, what date should be entered for Item 3 (Date of Earliest Transaction Required to be Reported)?
Answer: The date in Item 3 should be the transaction date of the earliest transaction reported that you are required to report on Form 4. This is the same date you enter in Column 2 of Table I (or Column 3 of Table II), not the Deemed Execution Date you would enter in Column 2A of Table I (or Column 3A of Table II). Where the transactions reported on the Form 4 include a transaction that the insider previously failed to report timely on Form 4, the transaction date for that transaction should be entered in Item 3.
