BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF SOUTH DAKOTA:
Section 1. That § 47-31B-302 be amended to read:
47-31B-302. (a) Required filing of records. With respect to a federal covered security, as defined
in Section 18(b)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 (15 U.S.C. § 77r(b)(2)), that is not otherwise
exempt under §§ 47-31B-201 through 47-31B-203, a rule adopted or order issued under this chapter
may require the filing of any or all of the following records:
(1) Before the initial offer of a federal covered security in this state, all records that are part
of a federal registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
under the Securities Act of 1933 and a consent to service of process complying with § 47-31B-611 signed by the issuer and the payment of a filing fee of one thousand dollars for
open-end management companies with total net assets of less than two hundred fifty
million dollars, or a filing fee of two thousand dollars for open-end management
companies with total net assets equal to or greater than two hundred fifty million dollars;
two hundred fifty dollars for any closed end management company; or a filing fee of one
hundred fifty dollars for any unit investment trust. A renewal filing is required annually,
including those documents that the director by rule or order may require and a fee as
provided in this subparagraph a(1). An initial or renewal filing includes a separate fee for
each portfolio, series, class, or other designation. An initial or renewal filing shall include
the most recent financial statement showing the nets assets of each portfolio, series, class,
or other designation, unless the maximum fee of two thousand dollars is paid.
(2) After the initial offer of the federal covered security in this state, all records that are part
of an amendment to a federal registration statement filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933. Any amendment that includes
a name change to any filing, including any portfolio, series, class, or other designation,
must include a fifty dollar filing fee for each name change of each portfolio, series, class,
or other designation.
(b) Notice filing effectiveness and renewal. A notice filing under subsection (a) is effective for
one year commencing on the later of the notice filing or the effectiveness of the offering filed with
the Securities and Exchange Commission. On or before expiration, the issuer may renew a notice
filing by filing a copy of those records filed by the issuer with the Securities and Exchange
Commission that are required by rule or order under this chapter to be filed and by paying a renewal
fee as set forth in subsection a(1). A previously filed consent to service of process complying with
§ 47-31B-611 may be incorporated by reference in a renewal. A renewed notice filing becomes
effective upon the expiration of the filing being renewed.
(c) Notice filings for federal covered securities under Section 18(b)(4) (D). With respect to a
security that is a federal covered security under Section 18(b)(4)(D) of the Securities Act of 1933
(15 U.S.C. § 77r(b)(4)(D)), a rule under this chapter may require a notice filing by or on behalf of
an issuer to include a copy of Form D, including the Appendix, as promulgated by the Securities and
Exchange Commission, and a consent to service of process complying with § 47-31B-611 signed
by the issuer not later than fifteen days after the first sale of the federal covered security in this state
and the payment of a fee of two hundred fifty dollars; and the payment of a fee of two hundred
seventy-five dollars for any late filing.
(d) Stop orders. Except with respect to a federal security under Section 18(b)(1) of the Securities
Act of 1933 (15 U.S.C. § 77r(b)(1)), if the director finds that there is a failure to comply with a
notice or fee requirement of this section, the director may issue a stop order suspending the offer and
sale of a federal covered security in this state. If the deficiency is corrected, the stop order is void as
of the time of its issuance and no penalty may be imposed by the director.
