Uniform Investment Company Notice Filing {Form NF}

INSTRUCTIONS TO FORM NF Form NF should be used for investment company initial filings, renewals, amendments and sales reports. This form should be used for all filing options, including definite and indefinite filings. ITEM 1. Name of Issuer: State the name of the investment company for which the notice filing is being made. Do not use the name of the broker-dealer or distributor. ITEM 3. Amendment Filings: Provide the applicable information. However, it may not be necessary to complete the entire form. Amendments include changes in the correspondent or fund name or a new fiscal year end. Changes such as reorganizations should be reported under "Other", with a written explanation. If in doubt about the proper category, use "Other" and provide an explanation. ITEM 4. Description of Securities: This information should be provided at the level necessary in the given state. For example, if the state is a "trust level" state, portfolio and class information may not be required. A separate Form NF should be filed for each portfolio or class, to the extent required by the given state. Attach a list of all portfolios or classes for "trust level" states. For states whose fees are based on the prospectus, a separate Form NF should be filed for each prospectus and should include a list of all securities listed in the prospectus. ITEM 6 CIK number (EDGAR): Please provide the Central Index Key Number that will cross-reference the SEC filing. Federal ID Numbers and SEC Registration Numbers: Federal identification numbers are only available for the fund or trust. Provide the Federal ID No. and SEC Registration No. if filing in a jurisdiction that requires these numbers. Fiscal Year: Fiscal year information is not required for unit investment trusts, since the filing period runs concurrently with SEC effectiveness. ITEM 7. Notice Period: The notice period is established by law, administrative regulation or policy in some jurisdictions. As a result, one or more of the three options provided on the form may not be available in each jurisdiction. In addition, if the issuer elects to begin the notice filing period on the date of SEC effectiveness, the notice period will end on the date that a renewal filing is required. ITEM 12. Uniform Consent to Service of Process: The uniform consent to service of process form is separate from the Notice Filing Form (Form NF). Issuers shall use the Uniform Consent to Service of Process Form (Form U-2). PROSPECTUS AND STATEMENT OF ADDITIONAL INFORMATION. In some jurisdictions, you may be required by law, administrative regulation or policy to file the Form NF with a prospectus and/or statement of additional information.
