SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-38235; International Series Release No. 1048]


List of Foreign Issuers Which Have Submitted Information Required 
by the Exemption Relating to Certain Foreign Securities

February 4, 1997.
    Foreign private issuers with total assets in excess of $10,000,000 
and a class of equity securities held of record by 500 or more persons, 
of which 300 or more shareholders reside in the United States, are 
subject to registration under Section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange 
Act of 1934, 15 U.S.C. 78a et seq. (the ``Act'').1
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ Foreign issuers may also be subject to such requirements of 
the Act by reason of having securities registered and listed on a 
national securities exchange in the United States, and may be 
subject to the reporting requirements by reason of having registered 
securities under the Securities Act of 1933, 15 U.S.C. 77a et seq.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Rule 12g3-2(b) (17 CFR 240.12g3-2(b)) provides an exemption from 
registration under Section 12(g) of the Act with respect to a foreign 
private issuer that submits on a current basis material specified in 
the Rule to the Commission. Such required material includes that 
information about which investors ought reasonably to be informed with 
respect to the issuer and its subsidiaries and which the issuer (1) has 
made or is required to make public pursuant to the law of the country 
of its domicile or in which it is incorporated or organized, (2) has 
filed or is required to file with a stock exchange on which its 
securities are traded and which was made public by such exchange and/or 
(3) has distributed or is required to distribute to its security 
holders.
    On October 6, 1983, the Commission revised Rule 12g3-2(b) by 
terminating the availability of the exemptive rule for certain foreign 
issuers with securities quoted on an automated inter-dealer quotation 
system (which includes the NASDAQ stock market).2 The Commission 
grandfathered indefinitely securities of non-Canadian issuers in 
compliance with the information-supplying exemption as of October 6, 
1983 and quoted in NASDAQ on that

[[Page 6019]]

date.3 The Commission extended the exemption to Canadian 
securities only until January, 1986.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \2\ Exchange Act Release No. 20264 (Oct. 6, 1983).
    \3\ If, however, the securities are delisted from an automated 
inter-dealer quotation system or the issuer fails to maintain or 
otherwise meet the requirements of the exemption, the grandfather 
provision will cease to apply.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    When it adopted Rule 12g3-2 and other rules relating to foreign 
securities,4 the Commission indicated that from time to time it 
would issue lists showing those foreign issuers that have claimed 
exemptions from the registration provisions of Section 12(g) of the 
Act.5 The purpose of the present release is to call to the 
attention of brokers, dealers, and investors that some form of 
relatively current information concerning the foreign issuers included 
on the following list is available in the public files of the 
Commission.6 The Commission also wishes to bring to the attention 
of brokers, dealers, and investors the fact that current information 
concerning foreign issuers may not necessarily be available in the 
United States.7 The Commission continues to expect that brokers 
and dealers will consider this fact in connection with their 
obligations under the federal securities laws to have a reasonable 
basis for recommending these securities to their customers.8
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ Exchange Act Release No. 8066 (Apr. 28, 1967).
    \5\ Exchange Act Release No. 36200 (Sept. 7, 1995) contained the 
last such list.
    \6\ Inclusion of an issuer on the following list is not an 
affirmation by the Commission that the issuer has complied or is 
complying with all the conditions of the exemption provided by Rule 
12g3-2(b). The list does identify those issuers that both have 
claimed the exemption and have submitted relatively current 
information to the Commission as of January 23, 1997.
    \7\ Paragraph (a)(4) of Rule 15c2-11 [17 CFR 240.15c2-11] 
requires a broker-dealer initiating a quotation for securities of a 
foreign private issuer to maintain in its files, and to make 
reasonably available upon request, the information furnished to the 
Commission pursuant to Rule 12g3-2(b) since the beginning of the 
issuer's last fiscal year.
    \8\ See, e.g., Hanly v. SEC, 415 F.2d 589 (2nd Cir. 1969) 
(broker-dealer cannot recommend a security unless an adequate and 
reasonable basis exists for such recommendation).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Any questions regarding Rule 12g3-2 or the list included herein 
should be directed to Andrea R. Biller, Office of International 
Corporate Finance, Division of Corporation Finance, Securities and 
Exchange Commission, Washington, D.C. 20549 ((202) 942-2990). Requests 
for copies of the documents in the files should be directed to the 
Public Reference Room, Securities and Exchange Commission, Washington, 
D.C. 20549 ((202) 942-8090).

    For the Commission, by the Division of Corporation Finance, 
pursuant to delegated authority.
Margaret H. McFarland,
Deputy Secretary.
