Purpose


The rule is amended to reflect the most current version of federal regulations and federal statutes referenced in the rule. The rule is also amended to replace references to the National Association of Securities Dealers with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA). FINRA was created in July 2007 through the consolidation of National Association of Securities Dealers and the member regulation, enforcement and arbitration functions of the New York Stock Exchange. The rule corrects cross-references.
