(2)

Unless otherwise exempt from registration under ORS 59.025 (Securities exempt from registration) or 59.035 (Transactions exempt from registration), any federal covered security that is subject to section 18(b)(3) or (4), other than section 18(b)(4)(D), of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, may be offered and sold only upon a filing of a notice with, and the payment of the required fee to, the director. The form of notice shall be prescribed by the director. The director shall set the fee by rule in an amount per $1,000 of the aggregate price of the securities which are to be offered in this state. The fee is not refundable. The effective date of the notice is the later of the date the notice is received by the director or the date specified by the filer of the notice.

Unless otherwise exempt from registration under ORS 59.025 (Securities exempt from registration) or 59.035 (Transactions exempt from registration), any federal covered security that is subject to section 18(b)(4)(D) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, may be offered and sold only upon a filing of a notice with, and the payment of the required fee to, the director, not later than 15 days after the first sale of such federal covered security in this state. The notice shall be filed on Securities and Exchange Commission Form D or on a form of notice prescribed by the director.

(4)

Intentionally left blank —Ed.

(a)

The director shall set the fees described in subsections (1) to (3) of this section in an amount that the director determines is equal as nearly as possible to the national midpoint for similar fees charged by all other state regulatory agencies within the United States responsible for regulating securities.

(b)

The director may adjust the amount of a fee described in subsections (1) to (3) of this section every two years to reflect changes in the national midpoint for a similar fee.

(c)

In determining the national midpoint for similar fees under this section, the director may consider national midpoints determined by the North American Securities Administrators Association, the National Association of Securities Dealers or the United States Securities and Exchange Commission.

(5)

The director may issue an order suspending the offer and sale of a federal covered security if the director finds that there is a failure to comply with any requirement under this section.

(6)

Intentionally left blank —Ed.

(a)

The filer of a notice under subsections (1) to (3) of this section shall amend the notice when there is a change in the name of the offering or, in the case of offerings for which notice is filed pursuant to subsection (2) or (3) of this section, when there is an increase in the aggregate price of the securities which are to be offered in this state. There is no fee required for an amendment that does not increase the aggregate offering amount. Notices amending the aggregate offering amount shall include the fee calculated in accordance with subsection (2) or (3) of this section, less amounts previously paid under the prior notice filing, but the fee may not be less than $100. The fee is not refundable.

(b)

If an issuer or person sells federal covered securities in this state for a price in excess of the aggregate price for which fees were initially paid under this section, the seller shall pay a fee of three times the difference between the initial fee paid and the fee required under this section for the federal covered securities sold in this state. The additional fee may not be less than $100. The fee is not refundable.

(7)

The director, by rule or otherwise, may waive any or all of the provisions of this section. [1997 c.772 §6; 2001 c.104 §15; 2003 c.270 §2; 2003 c.785 §1]
