Item 1

 
other than cash be deposited in escrow; and that the proceeds from
the sale of the registered security in this State be impounded
until the issuer receives a specified amount from the sale of the
security either in this State or elsewhere. The conditions of any
escrow or impoundment required under this subsection may be
established by rule adopted or order issued under this chapter, but
the administrator may not reject a depository institution solely
because of its location in another state.

 
7.__Form of subscription.__A rule adopted or order issued
under this chapter may require as a condition of registration
that a security registered under this chapter be sold only on a
specified form of subscription or sale contract and that a signed
or conformed copy of each contract be filed under this chapter or
preserved for a period specified by the rule or order, which may
not be longer than 5 years.

 
8.__Effective period.__Except while a stop order is in effect
under section 16306, a registration statement is effective for
one year after its effective date or for any longer period
designated in an order under this chapter during which the
security is being offered or distributed in a nonexempted
transaction by or for the account of the issuer or other person
on whose behalf the offering is being made or by an underwriter
or broker-dealer that is still offering part of an unsold
allotment or subscription taken as a participant in the
distribution. For the purposes of a nonissuer transaction, all
outstanding securities of the same class identified in the
registration statement as a security registered under this
chapter are considered to be registered while the registration
statement is effective. If any securities of the same class are
outstanding, a registration statement may not be withdrawn until
one year after its effective date. A registration statement may
be withdrawn only with the approval of the administrator.

 
9.__Periodic reports.__While a registration statement is
effective, a rule adopted or order issued under this chapter may
require the person that filed the registration statement to file
reports, not more often than quarterly, to keep the information
or other record in the registration statement reasonably current
and to disclose the progress of the offering.

 
10.__Posteffective amendments.__A registration statement may
be amended after its effective date. The posteffective amendment
becomes effective when the administrator so orders. If a
posteffective amendment is made to increase the number of
securities specified to be offered or sold, the person filing the
amendment shall pay a nonrefundable registration fee of $300.__A
posteffective amendment relates back to the date of the offering
