This deadline is no later than the fourth business day after the contract for contracts involving the sale for cash of securities that are priced after 4:30 p.m. Eastern Standard Time on the date the securities are priced and are sold by an issuer to an underwriter under a firm commitment underwritten offering registered under the Securities Act of 1933, 15 U.S.C. 77a, et seq., or are sold by you to an initial purchaser participating in the offering; (2) Such other time as the SEC specifies by rule (see SEC Rule 15c6–1, 17 CFR 240.15c6–1); or (3) Such time as the parties expressly agree at the time of the transaction.
