The SEC updated Volumes I, II and III of the EDGAR Filer Manual.
On October 20, 2014, the SEC issued a final rule adopting revisions to Volumes I, II and III of the EDGAR Filer Manual. The revised Manual introduces the following changes:
EDGAR has been updated to add new submission form types SF-1, SF-1/A, SF-3, SF-3/A, SF-3MEF, 424H, 424H/A, ABS-EE and ABS-EE/A to the EDGAR filing website.
New exhibits EX-102 (Asset Data File) and EX-103 (Asset Related Document) are now available on EDGARLink Online for submission form types ABS-EE and ABS-EE/A.
Form 8-K Item 6.06 (Static Pool) is now available on EDGARLink Online for submission form types 8-K, 8-K/A, 8-K12B, 8-K12B/A, 8-K12G3, 8-K12G3/A, 8-K15D5 and 8-K15D5/A.
Exhibit EX-106 (Static Pool) is now available on EDGARLink Online and can be included with submission form types S-1, S-1/A, S-1MEF, S-3, S-3/A, S-3ASR, S-3D, S-3DPOS, S-3MEF, SF-1, SF-1/A, SF-3, SF-3/A and SF-3MEF. If Item 6.06 is selected, then Exhibit EX-106 can also be included with submissions form types 8-K, 8-K/A, 8-K12B, 8-K12B/A, 8-K12G3, 8-K12G3/A, 8-K15D5 and 8-K15D5/A.
The Login and Frequently Asked Questions screens for all EDGAR websites, the EDGAR Portal and the EDGAR Company Database have been updated to specify Internet Explorer 8.0 as the recommended browser and Firefox 24.x as an additional compatible browser.
Because EDGAR no longer supports the leased line filing method, EDGAR Filer Manual Volumes I and II have been updated to remove all references to leased line filings.
Section 2.1 of EDGAR Filer Manual Volume III has been revised to update the N-SAR hardware and software requirements.
The changes will take effect on publication in the Federal Register.
