    50(a) The sale is made subject to the same conditions as those attaching to the right of acquisition, and

    69(b) Such person exercises reasonable diligence to deliver such security to the purchaser promptly after his right of acquisition matures, and

    90(c) Such person reports the sale on the appropriate form for reporting transactions by persons subject to Section 108625.75, F.S., 110of the Act.

    113(2) This section shall not be construed as exempting transactions involving both a sale of a security “when issued” or “when distributed” and a sale of the security by virtue of which the seller expects to receive the “when-issued” or “when-distributed” security, if the two transactions combined result in a sale of more units than the aggregate of those owned by the seller plus those to be received by him pursuant to his right of acquisition.
