INSTRUCTIONS FOR FORM 13H

A. Instructions for Form 13H—Cover Page.

Type of Filing. Indicate the type of Form 13H filing by checking the appropriate box at the top of the cover page to Form 13H.

If the filing is an “Initial Filing,” indicate the first date on which the aggregate number of transactions effected reached the identifying activity level. An initial filing must include a manually signed Form 13H and all applicable Schedules.

If the filing is an “Annual Filing,” indicate the ending date of the applicable calendar year and list the specific Items or Schedules that are amended or changed. If no information has changed, the large trader need only complete and sign the cover pages.

If the filing is an “Interim Filing” indicate the Items and Schedules being corrected and the effective date(s) of the corrections. “Interim Filings” must be filed promptly following the end of a calendar quarter in the event that any of the information contained in a Form 13H filing becomes inaccurate for any reason. A large trader must file an “Interim Filing,” when, for example, it changes its name, business address, organization type (e.g., a large trader partnership reincorporates as a limited liability company, or regulatory status (e.g., a hedge fund registers under the Investment Company Act), or when it adds or closes brokerage accounts through which it trades. A large trader also must file an “Interim Filing” to reflect changes in affiliations (e.g., the large trader acquires or is acquired by another entity, an existing affiliate becomes a large trader) and joint account management (e.g., a large trader assumes sole management authority over an account that formerly was jointly managed with another large trader).


If the filing is for “Inactive Status,” indicate the date that the large trader qualified for inactive status. A large trader shall become inactive, and exempt from the filing and self-identification requirements upon filing for inactive status until the identifying activity level is reached again.


If the filing is for “Reactivated Status,” indicate the date that the aggregate number of transactions again reached or exceeded the identifying activity level.


All filings, other than the “Initial Filing,” must indicate the applicable LTID assigned by the Commission and the Taxpayer Identification Number of the large trader. A large trader of inactive status that subsequently resumes activities requiring it to file Form 13H will retain the LTID initially assigned by the Commission and must include that LTID in its filing for “Reactivated Status.”


B. Instructions for Form 13H—Items 1 through 5.

Item 1. Business of the Large Trader. Specify the type of business engaged in by the large trader by checking one or more of the listed business types. If the large trader is engaged in more than one type of business, check each type that applies to the large trader. If the large trader is an individual, check “Other” and specify the occupation of such individual. Large trader trust companies and thrift institutions must check “Other Financial Institution.” The large trader must disclose in Item 1 only those businesses in which it is directly engaged; businesses engaged in by affiliates of the large trader must be disclosed in Item 5.

Item 2. SEC Registrations. Indicate whether the large trader or any of its affiliates files forms with the Commission. If “Yes” is checked, identify the entity and the applicable form(s) filed.


SEC file numbers may be obtained through EDGAR, and CRD numbers may be obtained by calling the member services office of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA), during normal business hours.


Item 3. Regulated Entities.

Indicate whether the large trader or any of its affiliates is registered with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission as a “Reporting Trader” pursuant to Sections 4i and 9 of the Commodity Exchange Act, or otherwise is registered under the Commodity Exchange Act. If so, for each entity, specify the number and type of registration. Indicate whether the large trader or any of its affiliates is a bank holding company, national bank, state member bank of the Federal Reserve System, state non-member bank, savings bank or association, credit union, or foreign bank. If so, for each entity, identify the bank regulator. Indicate whether the large trader or any of its affiliates is an insurance company and, if so, identify each entity and its insurance regulator. Indicate whether the large trader or any of its affiliates is regulated by a foreign regulator. If so, for each entity, identify the foreign regulator(s). Unlike Item 1, Item 3 applies to the large trader and its affiliates.

Item 4 and Schedule 4. Type of Large Trader.

The large trader must fill out Schedule 4, which captures basic organizational information. The term “executive officer,” used in Schedule 4, means “policy-making officer” and otherwise is interpreted in accordance with Rule 16a-1(f) under the Exchange Act. If the entity is incorporated in more than one jurisdiction, all jurisdictions must be identified. All terms, including “limited liability company,” have the meanings ascribed to them in the United States.


Item 5. Large Trader Affiliates.

Indicate in Item 5a whether the large trader has any affiliates that either exercise investment discretion over accounts that hold or beneficially own NMS securities. For purposes of the Form, an “affiliate” is any person that, directly or indirectly, controls, is under common control with, or is controlled by the large trader. If “Yes” is checked, identify all affiliates, and describe their businesses and relationships to the large trader (e.g., direct subsidiary, general partner in Limited Partnership A). Disclose in Item 5b names and LTIDs of affiliated large traders (if any).


Item 6 and Schedule 6. List of Large Trader Accounts.

All large traders must fill out Schedule 6, which requires a large trader to list information about the accounts over which the large trader exercises investment discretion. Provide the following information: the name of the registered broker-dealer that holds the account, the account number, the account name, and, if another large trader also exercises investment discretion over an account, the LTID of that other large trader. Large traders may attach internally produced lists of accounts to the Schedule provided that such lists capture all required information in a format substantially similar to the Schedule. If the large trader does not know the LTID of the other large traders at the time of filing (e.g., when it files its “Initial Filing”), it must submit promptly an “Interim Filing” upon learning those LTIDs. Provide also name(s) and contact information for the person(s) designated to provide information about the transactions effected through these accounts.


Qualifications of the Designated Contact Person. The large trader is required to designate a contact person for information regarding the accounts listed on the Schedule. The designated contact person must: (i) be a natural person; (ii) be employed by or otherwise affiliated with the large trader; (iii) be authorized by the large trader to respond promptly to any inquiries or requests from the Commission.

Requests for Information. The Commission may require the large trader to provide descriptive or clarifying information about the information disclosed in the Form 13H.
