    SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION
    
    [Release No. 34-41384; International Series Release No. 1196]
    
    
    List of Foreign Issuers Which Have Submitted Information Under 
    the Exemption Relating to Certain Foreign Securities
    
    May 10, 1999.
        Foreign private issuers with total assets in excess of $10,000,000 
    and a class of equity securities held of record by 500 or more persons, 
    of which 300 or more reside in the United States, are subject to 
    registration under Section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 
    \1\ (the ``Act'').\2\
    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
    
        \1\ 15 U.S.C. 78a et seq.
        \2\ Foreign issuers may also be subject to such requirements of 
    the Act by reason of having securities registered and listed on a 
    national securities exchange in the United States, and may be 
    subject to the reporting requirements of the Act by reason of having 
    registered securities under the Securities Act of 1933, 15 U.S.C. 
    77a et seq.
    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
    
        Rule 12g3-2(b) \3\ provides an exemption from registration under 
    Section 12(g) of the Act with respect to a foreign private issuer that 
    submits to the Commission, on a current basis, the material required by 
    the Rule. The informational requirements are designed to give investors 
    access to certain information so they have the opportunity to inform 
    themselves about the issuer. The Rule requires the issuer to provide 
    the Commission with information that it has: (1) made or is required to 
    make public pursuant to the law of the country of its domicile or in 
    which it is incorporated or organized; (2) filed or is required to file 
    with a stock exchange on which its securities are traded and that was 
    made public by such exchange; and/or (3) distributed or is required to 
    distribute to its securities holders.
    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
    
        \3\ 17 CFR 240.12g3-2(b)
    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
    
        On October 6, 1983, the Commission revised Rule 12g3-2(b) by 
    terminating the availability of the exemptive rule for certain foreign 
    issuers with securities quoted on an automated inter-dealer quotation 
    system--including the Nasdaq stock market.\4\ The Commission 
    grandfathered indefinitely securities of non-Canadian issuers that were 
    in compliance with the Rule as of October 6, 1983 and quoted on Nasdaq 
    on that date.\5\
    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
    
        \4\ Exchange Act Release No. 20264 (Oct. 6, 1983).
        \5\ If, however, the securities are delisted from an automated 
    inter-dealer quotation system or if the issuer fails to meet the 
    requirements of the Rule, the grandfather provision will cease to 
    apply. In addition, effective April 1, 1998, the securities of 
    foreign private issuers that claim the Rule 12g3-2(b) are no longer 
    able to be quoted on the OTC bulletin Board Service. See Exchange 
    Act Release No. 39456 (March 31, 1997).
    
    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

        When the Commission adopted Rule 12g3-2(b) and other rules \6\ 
    relating to foreign securities, it indicated that from time to time it 
    would publish lists showing those foreign issuers that have claimed 
    exemptions from the registration provisions of Section 12(g) of the 
    Act.\7\ The purpose of this release is to call to the attention of 
    brokers, dealers and investors, that some form of relatively current 
    information concerning the issuers included in this list is available 
    in the Commission's public files.\8\ the Commission also wishes to 
    bring to the attention of brokers, dealers, and investors the fact that 
    current information concerning foreign issuers may not necessarily be 
    available in the United States.\9\ The Commission continues to expect 
    that brokers and dealers will consider this fact in connection with 
    their obligations under the federal securities laws to have a 
    reasonable basis for recommending those securities to their 
    customers.\10\
    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
    
        \6\ Exchange Act Release No. 8066 (Apr. 28, 1967).
        \7\ Exchange Act Release No. 39681 (Feb. 19, 1998) was the last 
    such list.
        \8\ Inclusion of an issuer on the list in this release is not an 
    affirmation by the Commission that the issuer has complied or is 
    complying with all the conditions of Rule 12g3-2(b). The list does 
    identify those issuers that have both claimed the exemption and have 
    submitted relatively current information to the Commission as of 
    March 31, 1999.
        \9\ Paragraph (a)(4) of Rule 15c2-11 [17 CFR 240.15c2-11] 
    requires a broker-dealer initiating a quotation for securities of a 
    foreign private issuer to review, maintain in its files, and make 
    reasonably available upon request, the information furnished to the 
    Commission pursuant to Rule 12g3-2(b) since the beginning of the 
    issuer's last fiscal year.
        \10\ See, e.g., Hanley v. SEC, 415 f.2d 589 (2d Cir. 1969) 
    (broker-dealer cannot recommend a security unless an adequate and 
    reasonable basis exists for such recommendation).
