About the Editor
Introduction and background
Title III of the JOBS Act added Section 4(6) to the Securities Act to provide an exemption from the registration provisions of the Securities Act for crowdfunding transactions involving the offering of securities, and added Section 4A to the Securities Act to set forth the requirements for issuers and intermediaries, liability provisions, and certain other matters relating to crowdfunding. In addition, Title III amended various provisions of the Exchange Act in connection with the crowdfunding provisions. This monthly law reporter will summarize new rules, regulations and commentary.
The JOBS Act requires the Commission to adopt a number of rules implementing crowdfunding, including the following:
1. Rules to carry out Section 4(6) and Section 4A of the Securities Act, pursuant to Section 302(c) of the JOBS Act;
2. Rules to provide for disqualifications of issuers, brokers or funding portals pursuant to Section 302(d) of the JOBS Act;
3. Rules to exempt, conditionally or unconditionally, the requirement for a registered funding portal to register as a broker or dealer under Section 15(a)(1) of the Exchange Act, pursuant to Section 304(a) of the JOBS Act; and U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission;
4. Rules to exempt, conditionally or unconditionally, securities acquired in crowdfunding transactions from the scope of Section 12(g) of the Exchange
