On September 22, 2016, the Department issued an order recognizing the OTCQX Best Market and OTCQB Venture Market as designated securities manuals for purposes of Section 8-1111(2)(a)(iv) of the Securities Act of Nebraska (“the manual exemption”). The Order continues to recognize manuals published by Mergent, Inc. as approved manuals for purposes of the manual exemption. As part of the Order, the portions of the Bureau of Securities Interpretative Opinion #8 addressing the manual exemption were rescinded, and the Department has issued a revised Interpretative Opinion # 8.
