NOTICE OF REVIEW AND STATEMENT OF CONTINUATION

Concise explanation of the particular statutory provisions under which the rule is enacted and how these provisions authorize or require the rule:

Section 61-1-24 of the Utah Uniform Securities Act allows the division to make rules necessary to carry out the provisions of the chapter. Subsection 61-1-11(7)(b) authorizes the division to determine escrow and impounding requirements.

Summary of written comments received during and since the last five-year review of the rule from interested persons supporting or opposing the rule:

No comments have been received.

Reasoned justification for continuation of the rule, including reasons why the agency disagrees with comments in opposition to the rule, if any:

This rule was established to ensure disclosure of material information, prevent fraud, and limit excessive promoter profits in registered securities offerings. In addition, the rule serves to establish procedures for fairness hearings and for the impound of funds in offerings registered by qualification until the division approves a release of those funds. Therefore, this rule should be continued.
