The List is published four times a year by the Board as a guide for lenders subject to the regulations and the general public. This document sets forth additions to or deletions from the previously published List effective February 8,1988, and will serve to give notice to the public about the changed status of certain stocks.

For the hearing impaired only, Earnestine Hill or Dorothea Thompson, Telecommunications Device for the Deaf (TDD) (202) 452-3544, Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, Washington, DC 20551. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Set forth below are stocks representing additions to or deletions from the Board’s List of Marginable OTC Stocks. A copy of the complete List incorporating these additions and deletions is available from the Federal Reserve Banks. This List supersedes the last complete List which was effective February 8,1988. (Additions and deletions for that List were published at 53 FR 2998, February 3,1988). The current List includes those stocks that meet the criteria specified by the Board of Governors in Regulations G, T, U and X (12 CFR Parts 207, 220, 221 and 224, respectively). These stocks have the degree of national investor interest, the depth and breadth of market, and the availability of information respecting the stock and its issuer to warrant regulation in the same fashion as exchange-traded securities. The List also includes any stock designated under an SEC rule as qualified for trading in the national market system (NMS Security). Additional OTC stocks may be designated as NMS securities in the interim between the Board's quarterly publications. They will become automatically marginable at brokerdealers upon the effective date of their NMS designation. The names of these stocks are available at the Board and the Securities and Exchange Commission and will be incorporated into the Board’s next quarterly List. The requirements of 5 U.S.C. 553 with respect to notice and public participation were not followed in connection with the issuance of this amendment due to the objective character of the criteria for inclusion and continued inclusion on the List specified in 12 CFR 207.6 (a) and (b), 220.17 (a) and (b), and 221.7 (a) and (b). No additional useful information would be gained by public participation. The full requirements of 5 U.S.C. 553 with respect to deferred effective date have not been followed in connection with the issuance of this amendment because the Board finds that it is in the public interest to facilitate investment and credit decisions based in whole or in part upon the composition of this List as soon as possible. The Board has responded to a request by the public and allowed a two-week delay before the List is effective.
