| 9. Section 305(f), follows the 1956 Act and RUSA, and |
authorizes the administrator to require the impoundment of funds |
until the issuer receives a specified amount from the sale of the |
security in this State or elsewhere and to require the escrow of |
promotional stock until specific conditions are met. This Section |
is limited to a security issued within the past five years or to |
be issued to a promoter for a consideration substantially |
different from the public offering price or to a person for a |
consideration other than cash. The typical distribution subject |
to Section 305(f) will be a relatively new promotional or |
speculative offering. Section 305(f) follows the 1956 Act and |
RUSA and provides that the administrator may not reject a |
depository solely because of its location in another state. |
Unlike the statute in Schwaemmle Const. Co. v. Michigan Dep't of |
Commerce, 360 N.W.2d 141 (Mich. 1984), Section 305(f) broadly |
provides that the administrator "may determine the conditions of |
any escrow or impoundment under this subsection." As in |
Schwaemmle, this power will operate only until the impounded |
funds or escrowed shares are released. |
