The exemption applies to the extent that such securities are preempted from state registration requirements pursuant to Tier 2 of federal Regulation A. The measure requires the State Corporation Commission (SCC) to prescribe any filings with it of notices, renewals, and other materials. The measure authorizes the SCC to assess a filing fee. The SCC is further required to provide information on its website regarding the differences between this exemption and the crowdfunding exemption enacted in 2015.
