subdivisions thereof or asset-backed securities, as defined in 17 CFR 229.1101(c).
II. Application of General Rules and Regulations
A.

Attention is directed to the General Rules and Regulations under the Securities Act, particularly those comprising Regulation

filing of the registration statement.

B. Attention is directed to Regulation S-K (17 CFR Part 229) for the requirements applicable to the content of the non-financial

the extent appropriate.

emerging growth company, defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the Securities Act (15 U.S.C. 77b(a)(19)), prior to an initial public
offering may omit financial information for historical periods otherwise required by Regulation S-X (17 CFR Part 210) as of
the time of filing (or confidential submission) of the registration statement, provided that:
1. The omitted financial information relates to a historical period that the registrant reasonably believes will not be required
to be included in this Form at the time of the contemplated offering; and
2. Prior to the registrant distributing a preliminary prospectus to investors, the registration statement is amended to include
all financial information required by Regulation S-X at the date of the amendment.
III. Exchange Offers
If any of the securities being registered are to be offered in exchange for securities of any other issuer, the prospectus shall also
include the information which would be required by item 11 if the securities of such other issuer were registered on this Form. There shall
2

also be included the information concerning such securities of such other issuer which would be called for by Item 9 if such securities
were being registered. In connection with this instruction, reference is made to Rule 409.

statement, identified by file number, are incorporated by reference; required opinions and consents; the signature page; and any pricerelated information omitted from the earlier registration statement in reliance on Rule 430A that the registrant chooses to include in the
new registration statement. The information contained in such a Rule 462(b) registration statement shall be deemed to be a part of the
earlier registration statement as of the date of effectiveness of the Rule 462(b) registration statement. Any opinion or consent required
in the Rule 462(b) registration statement may be incorporated by reference from the earlier registration statement with respect to the
