L.	 Instructions to Specific Items
a.	 Item 1(a) — If the applicant is not registered currently with the Commission and is not succeeding to and continuing the business
of another registered municipal securities dealer, the box marked “a new application” should be checked. If a registered municipal
securities dealer is amending items on a currently effective Form MSD, the box marked “an amendment” should be checked. If
the applicant is succeeding to and continuing the business of another registered municipal securities dealer, the box marked “a
successor application” should be checked. If a bank registered as a municipal securities dealer determines it would prefer to
register as a separately identifiable department or division, or the converse, it is necessary that (i) the applicant file a Form MSD,
indicating in Item 1 that it is a “successor application” and (ii) the currently registered entity file a Form MSDW to withdraw its
registration. Pursuant to Securities Exchange Act Rule 15Ba2-4, 17 CFR 240.15Ba2-4, if a municipal securities dealer succeeds
to and continues the business of another registered municipal securities dealer, the registration of the predecessor shall be deemed
to remain effective as the registration of the successor for a period of 75 days after such succession, provided that a Form MSD
is filed by such successor within 30 days after such succession.
b.	 Items 2(a) and 2(b) — If applicant is a department or division of a bank, these items should be answered only for applicant, rather
than for the bank. Information with respect to the bank of which applicant is a part must be given in response to item 2(d).
c.	 Item 5 — This item calls for information concerning persons directly engaged in the supervision of any of the applicant’s
municipal securities dealer activities. A separate Schedule A or Form MSD-4 (which may be obtained from the appropriate
regulatory authority) must be completed for each person named in response to Item 5.
d.	 Item 6 — This item calls for information concerning persons not named in item 5 who may nevertheless directly or indirectly
control any of applicant’s municipal securities dealer activities. Such control may be exercised through stock ownership,
agreement or otherwise. Generally a person will be deemed to be in direct or indirect control of applicant’s municipal securities
dealer activities if such person exercises or has the ability to exercise a controlling influence over the management or policies
of applicant with respect to any of applicant’s municipal securities dealer activities. Depending on the fact of a particular situation,
senior officers or directors of the applicant or of the bank of which applicant is a part, or of a parent bank holding company, may
be deemed to be in direct or indirect control of such activities. Schedule A is not required for any person named in response to
2


item 6, but information is required to be furnished on Schedule B for each such person.
e.	 Item 7 — The information required by this item must be furnished with respect to each person directly or indirectly engaged in
or controlling any of the applicant’s municipal securities dealer activities, including any employee.
f.	 Item 9 — This item relates to services performed by persons other than applicant with respect to applicant’s municipal securities
dealer activities. There need not be furnished in response to this item information concerning personnel, payroll and other
administrative services which are not directly related to the applicant’s municipal securities dealer activities.
M.	 Privacy Act Statement
Under Section 15, 15B(a), 17(a) and 23(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the Rules and Regulations thereunder,
the Commission is authorized to solicit the information required to be supplied by this form from applicants for registration as a
municipal securities dealer (and persons associated with applicants). Disclosure of the information specified on this form is
mandatory prior to processing of applications for registration as a municipal securities dealer, except social security numbers,
disclosure of which is voluntary. The information will be used for the principal purpose of determining whether the Commission
should grant or deny registration to the applicant; social security numbers, if furnished, will be used only to assist the Commission
in identifying applicants and, therefore, in promptly processing applications. Information supplied on this form will be included
routinely in the public files of the Commission and will be available for inspection by any interested person. A form which is not
prepared and executed in compliance with applicable requirements may be returned as not acceptable for filing. Acceptance of this
form, however, shall not constitute any finding that it has been filed as required or that the information submitted is true, current
or complete. Intentional misstatements or omissions of fact constitute federal criminal violations. [See 18 U.S.C. 1001 and 15
U.S.C. 78ff(a)].
