Statute Text
Registration procedures; application; fees; rules.
(1) The Director of the Department
of Consumer and Business Services by rule shall establish procedures for
registering securities. The director may coordinate registration in this state
with any federal securities Act or national registration system.
(2) Every
registration application submitted shall be accompanied by a fee. The director
shall set the fee by rule in an amount per $1,000 of the aggregate price of the
securities that are to be offered in this state. The fee is not refundable.
(3)(a) The
director shall set the fee described in subsection (2) 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 the fee described in subsection (2) 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.
(4) If a
registrant sells securities in Oregon in excess of the quantity registered or
for a price in excess of the aggregate price for which fees were initially
paid, the registrant may obtain registration of the excess securities by paying
three times the difference between the initial fee paid and the fee required
under subsection (2) of this section for the securities sold in Oregon. The
additional fee may not be less than $100. Registration of the excess securities
shall be effective retroactively to the date of sale. [1967 c.537 §8; 1973
