This notice advises that, effective February 28, 2004, amendments to the insider reporting requirements and insider trading prohibition in the Securities Act are in force. The amendments require the reporting of equity monetization transactions. Insiders must report by March 9, 2004 any existing monetization transactions that they have not already reported.
The Commission is adopting BC Instrument 55-506 Exemption from insider reporting requirements for certain derivative transactions to provide a number of exemptions from the insider reporting requirements.
To provide guidance about how to report these transactions under the System for Electronic Disclosure by Insiders (SEDI), the Commission is also publishing CSA Staff Notice 55-312 Insider Reporting Guidelines for Certain Derivative Transactions (Equity Monetization).
