SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-45855; International Series Release No. 1257]


List of Foreign Issuers That Have Submitted Information Under the 
Exemption Relating to Certain Foreign Securities

May 1, 2002.
    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 reside in the United States, are subject to 
registration under Section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 
\1\ (the ``Act'').\2\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ 15 U.S.C. 78a et seq.
    \2\ 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 of the Act by reason of having 
registered securities under the Securities Act of 1933, 15 U.S.C. 
77a et seq.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

[[Page 30734]]

    Rule 12g3-2(b) \3\ provides an exemption from registration under 
Section 12(g) of the Act with respect to a foreign private issuer that 
submits to the Commission, on a current basis, the material required by 
the Rule. The informational requirements are designed to give investors 
access to certain information so they have the opportunity to inform 
themselves about the issuer. The Rule requires the issuer to provide 
the Commission with information that it has: (1) 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) filed or is required to file 
with a stock exchange on which its securities are traded and that was 
made public by such exchange; and/or (3) distributed or is required to 
distribute to its securities holders.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ 17 CFR 240.12g3-2(b).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    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--including the Nasdaq stock market.\4\ The Commission 
grandfathered indefinitely securities of non-Canadian issuers that were 
in compliance with the Rule as of October 6, 1983 and quoted on Nasdaq 
on that date.\5\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ Exchange Act Release No. 20264 (October 6, 1983).
    \5\ If, however, the securities are delisted from an automated 
inter-dealer quotation system or if the issuer fails to meet the 
requirements of the Rule, the grandfather provision will cease to 
apply. In addition, effective April 1, 1998, the securities of 
foreign private issuers that claim the Rule 12g3-2(b) exemption are 
no longer able to be quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board Service. See 
Exchange Act Release No. 38456 (March 31, 1997).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    When the Commission adopted Rule 12g3-2(b) and other rules \6\ 
relating to foreign securities, it indicated that from time to time it 
would publish lists showing those foreign issuers that have claimed 
exemptions from the registration provisions of Section 12(g) of the 
Act.\7\ The purpose of this release is to call to the attention of 
brokers, dealers and investors, that some form of relatively current 
information concerning the issuers included in this list is available 
in the Commission's public files.\8\ 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.\9\ 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 those securities to their 
customers.\10\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ Exchange Act Release No. 8066 (April 28, 1967).
    \7\ Exchange Act Release No. 41384 (May 10, 1999) was the last 
such list.
    \8\ Inclusion of an issuer on the list in this release is not an 
affirmation by the Commission that the issuer has complied or is 
complying with all the conditions of Rule12g3-2(b). The list does 
identify those issuers that have both claimed the exemption and have 
submitted relatively current information to the Commission as of 
April 4, 2002.
    \9\ 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 review, maintain in its files, and 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.
    \10\ See, e.g., Hanley v. SEC, 415 F.2d 589 (2d Cir. 1969) 
(broker-dealer cannot recommend a security unless an adequate and 
reasonable basis exists for such recommendation).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Finance, Division of Corporation Finance, Securities and Exchange 
Commission, Washington, DC 20549-0302 ((202) 942-2990). This release is

and Exchange Commission, Washington, DC 20549-0102 ((202) 942-8090).
