SECURITIES OF MEMBER STATE BANKS
Proposed Amendments to Regulation F To Conform With SEC Rules
To All State

M em ber

Banks

in

the Second Federal Reserve District:

The Board o f Governors o f the Federal Reserve System has invited comment, by March 1, 1980, on a
proposal to amend its Regulation F, “ Securities o f Member State Banks,” to simplify the regulation and
bring it into conformity with recent rule changes adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The following is quoted from the text o f the Board’ s statement announcing the proposal:
The Board is required by law to revise its Regulation F to be substantially similar to comparable rules and
regulations o f the Commission unless the Board finds that it is not necessary or appropriate to do so. Banks with
more than 500 stockholders are subject to the rules of the Board’s Regulation F.
To be consistent with recent changes in the Commission’s rules the Board proposed to revise Regulation F
as follows:

Loans to Officers, Directors, Principal Security Holders and Associates
—A note would be required to financial statements o f affected banks setting forth the amount o f aggregate
indebtedness of these persons if loans to them exceed five percent o f the bank’s equity capital. Details o f loans to
these persons would be disclosed if the amount exceeds $500,000 or two and one-half per cent o f equity capital,
whichever is less. Loans to directors who are not officers of the bank may be combined in the aggregate.

Statement of Income
—Since the net interest income format adopted by the Commission does not affect the determination o f net
income nor expand the overall structure of the existing report o f income, the Board proposes to adhere to the ex­
isting format.

Foreign Activities
—A note to the financial statements would be required if assets, or income gains or losses, associated with
foreign activities of the bank exceed ten percent of the corresponding amount in the bank’s related financial
statements.

Investment Securities
—A proposed supplemental instruction would require certain disclosures in a note to the financial
statements of concentration in the bank’s investment in securities by an issuer other than U .S. Treasury and U .S.
Government agencies and corporations.

Falsification of Accounting Records and Issuer’s Representation
—The Securities Exchange Act requires issuers who are registered under the Act to (1) make and keep
books, records and accounts, in reasonable detail, which accurately and fairly reflect transactions and disposi­
tions of the assets; and (2) devise and maintain a system of internal accounting controls sufficient to meet certain
standards. The commission adopted rules 13(b)2-l, and 13(b)2-2 to implement this authority. The Board pro­
poses to add these new provisions as section 206.7(c) and (d) of Regulation F.




(Over)

Other Changes
—Proposed section 206.7 (Form and Content o f Financial Statements) o f the regulation has been restruc­
tured and minor editorial changes have been made to obtain more similarity with Commission rules and to
establish identical structure among Federal bank agency disclosure regulations to the extent possible. New sec­
tions 206.7(e)7 and 8 (relating to reacquired evidences o f indebtedness and reacquired shares respectively) have
been proposed. Guideline Format F-9E Schedules have been revised by combining Schedules I and II (Investment
and Other Securities) into a single schedule, proposing a new Schedule II (Loans to Officers, Directors, Principal
Security Flolders and any Associates o f the Foregoing Persons), deleting Schedule VI (Other Liabilities for Bor­
rowed Money), and editing in certain other schedules.

Simplification
—Concurrent with these changes, the Board proposed to simplify the regulation by incorporating by
reference the format and instructions o f the bank’s Report of Condition and Report o f Income. This is expected
not only to simplify the Regulation but also to reduce the burden o f compliance with it.

Enclosed — for State member banks — is a copy of the complete text of the proposed amendments; it
will be published in the Federal Register and will be made available to others upon request directed to the
Circulars Division of this Bank. Comments should be submitted by March 1, and may be sent to our Con­
sumer Affairs and Bank Regulations Department.

FEDERAL RESERVE SYSTEM
[12 C.F.R. Part 206]
[ Reg. F; Docket No. R-0269 ]
SECURITIES OF MEMBER STATE BANKS
AGENCY:
ACTION:

Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.
Proposed Rule.

SUMMARY: Pursuant to its authority under section 12(i) of the Securities Exchange
Act of 193^, as amended (15 U.S.C. § 7S(i)) ("Act"), the Board proposes to amend its
Regulation F (12 C.F.R. § 206) in order that it will be substantially similar to
comparable rules and regulations issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission.
This proposal is intended to comply with section 12(i) of the Act, which requires that
the Board either conform its Regulation F to any changes made by the Commission in
its relevant rules and regulations, or publish reasons why the Board has determined
that such changes are not necessary or appropriate. Concurrent with the conforming
revisions to Regulation F required by section 12(i) of the Act, the Board proposes to
simplify and thus reduce the burden of compliance by proposing to incorporate by
reference instructions for the preparation of supervisory Reports of Condition and
Reports of Income and thereby eliminate separate Regulation F instructions. To the
extent additional financial statement data are required for disclosure purposes,
supplemental instructions will be applicable and are proposed herein. The proposed
conforming changes, which in all major respects are consistent with recent
amendments to the rules and regulations of the Commission, concern: (A) Form and
Content of Financial Statements designated Article 9 of Regulation S-X (B) Veracity
of accounting records and issuer's representations in connection with preparation of
required reports and documents filed under the Act and (C) editing changes and
restructuring of certain financial statementregulations schedules and formats. The
proposed changes do not include the net interest income format for the statement of
income adopted by the Commission for two reasons: (1) the difference is considered a
difference of form only, all material components needed to derive net interest income
are readily available in the present statement of income format, and (2) consistency
with the existing supervisory report of income format is required to achieve the
concurrent simplification objective described above. There are several other minor
differences in financial statement structure which do not materially affe ct the
disclosure content of financial statement presentations.
DATES:

Comments must be received by March 1, 1980.

ADDRESS: Interested persons are invited to submit written data, views or arguments
regarding the proposed regulation to the Office of the Secretary, Board of Governors
of the Federal Reserve System, Washington, D. C. 20551.
All material submitted
should include the docket number R- 0269 . All written comments will be made
available for public inspection at this address.

Division of Banking Supervision and Regulation, Board of Governors of the Federal
Reserve System, Washington, D. C. 20551 (202/452-3503).
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
following changes:
A.

(1) The Federal Reserve Board would make the

AMENDMENTS TO CONFORM WITH ARTICLE 9 OF REGULATION
S-X

On September 7, 1978, the Commission amended Article 9 of Regulation
S-X effective for financial statements for periods commencing after December 24,
1978. The following significant changes would conform Regulation F section 206.7 Form and Content of Financial Statements and Format F-9 Financial Statements to
amended Article 9 of Regulation S-X.
1.

Loans to O fficers,
Associates

Directors,

Principal

Security

Holders,

and

The Commission adopted a broad scope of disclosure concerning
receivables of persons related to the registrant and its principal subsidiaries as
directors, executive officers or principal holders of equity securities and certain of
their associates. If the aggregate amount of such receivables exceeds five per cent of
stockholders' equity, a statement of the amount is to be made in a note to financial
statements. Amounts related to installment loans made in the ordinary course of
business need not be included provided they were made on nonpreferentiai terms and
did not involve more than normal risk of collectibility. In addition, any individual
indebtedness of persons mentioned above of more than $500,000 or two and one half
per cent of stockholders' equity, whichever is less, would be required to be listed
separately in a schedule to the financial statements.
On November 6, 1979, the Commission proposed to amend the individual
indebtedness listing requirements of Schedule I relating to amounts due from
nonofficer directors. Detailed disclosure of loans to nonofficer directors made in the
ordinary course of business is proposed to be provided on an aggregate basis. The
proposed amendment was prompted in part by the enactment of the Financial
Institutions Regulatory and Interest Rate Control Act of 1978 which was effective
subsequent to the adoption of the revision of Article 9.
The Board proposes to amend its format and schedule requirements to
conform with Article 9 disclosure requirements for loans to officers, directors,
principal security holders and associates in accordance with the five per cent of equity
capital threshold for note to financial statement rule with respect to aggregate
indebtedness of such persons. With respect to the separate listing of individual
indebtedness in a related schedule requirement, the Board proposes to adopt the
threshold of $500,000 or two and one half per cent of equity capital, whichever is less,
except that indebtedness of nonofficer directors may be combined in the aggregate as
proposed by the Commission on November 6, 1979.




-32.

Statement of Income Format

The net interest income format adopted by the Commission introduced a
multi-step statement of income that in substance does not affect the determination of
net income nor expand the overall caption structure of the existing report of income
format used for supervisory financial reports. Derivation of net interest income is
readily calculable from the present supervisory report of income format. Rather than
conform with the multi-step statement of income presentation, the Board concludes
that the change would be a matter of form only. Further, conforming to such change
would be inimical to the achievement of its objective to simplify compliance by and
reduce reporting burden of registrant banks by proposing to incorporate the
instructions for the preparation of supervisory reports.
It should be noted that the guidelines set forth in Format F-9 Financial
Statements of Regulation F are recommended presentations, but financial statements
may be filed in such form and order as will best indicate their significance and
character. Such statement has been a long established provision in the regulations of
the Commission and adhered to by the Board. Thus, a registrant bank may at its
option and in its judgment present a statement of income that would conform to the
Commission's Regulation S-X.
3.

Foreign Activities

Section 206.7(eX9) of the regulation would be added to require disclosure in
a note to the financial statements of foreign activities if assets, or operating income,
or income (loss) before taxes and securities gains (losses), or net income (loss)
associated with foreign activities, exceeded ten per cent of the corresponding amount
in the related financial statements. Loan categories, balances with banks in foreign
countries, deposit liabilities, other borrowings, income and expense summary and
allowance for possible loan losses must be furnished. In addition, activities for each
significant geographic area (defined as one in which assets, operating income, or net
income exceed ten per cent of the comparable amount as reported in the related
financial statements) must be separately stated for such area. In connection with
deposit liabilities, the amount of interest bearing deposits in denominations of
$100,000 or more must be stated.
Disclosure of such interest bearing deposits
conforms to the amendment of Article 9 of Regulation S-X of the Commission
proposed on November 6, 1979.
4.

Investment Securities

A proposed supplemental instruction to Format F-9A, Balance Sheet would
require disclosure in a note to the financial statements of concentration in the bank's
investment in securities by an issuer other than U. S. Treasury and U. S. Government
agency and corporation. If aggregate book value for that issuer securities exceeds ten
per cent of the equity capital accounts of the bank, the name of issuer, aggregate book
value and aggregate amount on the basis of market quotations or fair value must be
stated. Debt securities issued by a State of the United States and its political
subdivisions and agencies which are payable from and secured by the same source of
revenue or taxing authority shall be considered to be securities of a single issuer.

FALSIFICATION OF
REPRESENTATION

ACCOUNTING

RECORDS

AND

ISSUER'S

Section 13(b)(2) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (15 U.S.C. §78(i))
("Act") requires issuers who are registered under the Act to (1) make and keep books,
records and accounts, in reasonable detail, which accurately and fairly reflect
transactions and dispositions of the assets; and (2) devise and maintain a system of
internal accounting controls sufficient to meet certain standards. The Commission
adopted rules 13(b)2-l, and 13(b)2-2 to implement this authority. The Board proposes
to adopt such rules by adding these new provisions as section 206.7(c) and (d) of
Regulation F.
C.

OTHER CHANGES

Proposed section 206.7 - Form and Content of Financial Statements of the
regulation has been restructured as to order and content of certain provisions with
minor editing changes to obtain more similarity with Commission rules and to establish
identical structure among Federal bank agency disclosure regulations to the extent
possible.
New sections 206.7(e)7 and 8 relating to reacquired evidences of
indebtedness and reacquired shares respectively have been proposed.
Guideline
Format F-9E Schedules has been revised by combining Schedules I and II - Investment
and Other Securities into a single schedule, proposing a new Schedule II - Loans to
O fficers, Directors, Principal Security Holders and any Associates of the Foregoing
Persons, deleting Schedule VI - Other Liabilities for Borrowed Money and editing in
certain other schedules.
D.

SIMPLIFICATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENT PREPARATION

To reduce reporting burden of registrant banks the proposal includes a
procedure which will permit the assembly of financial statement data compiled for
supervisory bank reports to be used for compliance with Regulation F financial
statement requirements. Format F-9 Financial Statements would be patterned on the
caption structure of supervisory financial reports and the related Instructions for
Preparation of Reports of Condition and Income have been incorporated by reference.
To the extent additional financial data are needed to meet the disclosure standards of
the Commission, supplemental instructions are provided in the proposed Format F-9.
Thus, registrant banks will be able to utilize identical basic financial statement data
to meet both supervisory and disclosure report requirements of the Board.
(2) Section 206.7 [am ended].
Section 206.7 of Regulation F, 12 CFR §206.7, would be amended to read
as follows:




-5-

SECTION 206.7 - FORM AND CONTENT OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(a) Principles of financial reporting. Financial statements filed with the Board
pursuant to this Part shall be prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles and practices applicable to banks. The Board may from time to
time issue releases on accounting principles and practices to be used with respect to
specific areas.
(b) Verification. (1) General.
(i) Every verification with respect to financial statements filed pursuant to
this Part shall be dated, shall be signed manually, shall indicate the city and State
where issued, and shall identify without detailed enumeration the financial statements
covered by the verification.
(ii) If the person or persons making a verification considers that he must
take exceptions or express qualifications with respect thereto, each such exception or
qualification shall be stated specifically and clearly and, to the extent practicable,
shall indicate the effect of the matter on the financial statements to which it relates.
(2) Opinions to be expressed by principal accounting officer and internal auditor.
Every verification by a bank's principal accounting officer and internal auditor shall
state:
(i) The opinions of such persons with respect to the financial statements
covered by the verification and the accounting principles and practices reflected
therein; and
(ii) The opinions of such persons as to any material changes in accounting
principles or practices or in the method of applying the accounting principles or
practices, or adjustments of the accounts, required to be set forth by paragraph (c)(5)
of this section.
(3) Examination by independent public accountants.
(i) Qualifications of independent public accountants.
(a) The Board will not recognize any person as an independent public
accountant who is not registered or licensed to practice as a public accountant by a
regulatory authority of a State and in good standing with such authority as such an
accountant.
(b) The Board will not recognize any certified public accountant or
public accountant as independent who is not in fact independent. For example, an
accountant will be considered not independent with respect to any person or any of its
parents, its subsidiaries, or other affiliates (1) in which, during the period of his
professional engagement to examine the financial statements being reported on or at
the date of his report, he or his firm or a member thereof had, or was committed to
acquire, any direct financial interest or any material indirect financial interest, or (2)
with which, during the period of his professional engagement to examine the financial




-6-

statements being reported on, at the date of his report or during the period covered by
the financial statements, he or his firm or a member thereof was connected as a
promoter, underwriter, voting trustee, director, officer, or employee, except that a
firm will not be deemed not independent in regard to a particular person if a former
officer or employee of such person is employed by the firm and such individual has
completely disassociated himself from the person and its affiliates and does not
participate in auditing financial statements of the person or its affiliates covering any
period of his employment by the person. For the purposes of section 206.7 the term
"member" means all partners in the firm and all professional employees participating
in the audit or located in an office of the firm participating in a significant portion of
the audit.
(c)
In determining whether a public accountant is, in fact, independent
with respect to a particular person, the Board will give appropriate consideration to all
relevant circumstances, including evidence bearing on all relationships between the
accountant and that person or any affiliate thereof, and will not confine itself to the
relationships existing in connection with the filing of reports with the Board.
(ii) Representations as to the audit.

The independent public accountant's

report (a) shall state whether the audit was made in accordance with generally
accepted auditing standards; and
(b) shall designate any auditing procedures generally recognized as
normal (or deemed necessary by the accountant under the circumstances of the
particular case) that have been omitted, and the reasons for their omission. Nothing in
this provision shall be construed to imply authority for the omission of any procedure
which independent accountants would ordinarily employ in the course of an audit made
for the purpose of expressing the opinions required by clause (iii) below.
(iii)
shall state clearly:

Opinions to be expressed.

The independent public accountant's report

(a) The opinion of the accountant with respect to the financial
statements covered by the report and the accounting principles and practices reflected
therein; and
(b) The opinion of the accountant as to the consistency of the
application of the accounting principles, or as to any changes in such principles which
have a material effect on the financial statements required to be set forth by
paragraph (cX5) of this section.
(iv) Exceptions. If the accountant making the report considers that he must
take exceptions or express qualifications with respect thereto, each such exception or
qualification shall be stated specifically and clearly and, to the extent practicable,
shall indicate the effect of the matter on the financial statements to which it relates.
(v) Association with unaudited note covering interim financial data. If the
financial statements covered by the accountant's report designate as "unaudited" the




-7 -

note required by section 206.7(e)(13Xvii), it shall be
professional standards and procedures with respect to the
followed by the independent accountant who is associated
by virtue of reporting on the financial statements in which

presumed that appropriate
data in the note have been
with the unaudited footnote
the note is included.

(vi)
Examination of financial statements by more than one independent
public accountant. If, with respect to the examination of the financial statements of
any bank, the principal independent public accountant relies on an audit made by
another independent public accountant of certain of the accounts of such bank or its
subsidiaries, the report of such other accountant shall be filed (and the provisions of
this subparagraph shall be applicable thereto); however, the report of such other
accountant need not be filed (a) if no reference is made directly or indirectly to such
other accountant's audit in the principal accountant's report, or (b) if, having referred
to such other accountant's audit the principal accountant's report indicates an
assumption of responsibility for such other accountant's audit.
(c) Falsification of accounting records. No person shall, directly or indirectly,
falsify or cause to be falsified, any book, record or account subject to section
13(b)(2XA) of the Securities Exchange Act.
(d) Bank's representations in connection with the preparation of required reports
and documents. No director or officer of a bank shall directly or indirectly make or
cause to be made a materially false or misleading statement, or omit to state, or
cause another person to omit to state, any material fact necessary in order to make
statements made, in light of the circumstances under which such statements were
made, not misleading to an accountant in connection with (1) any audit or examination
of the financial statements of the bank required to be made pursuant to this part or (2)
the preparation or filing of any document or report required to be filed with the Board
pursuant to this part or otherwise.
(e) Provisions of general application. (1) Requirements as to form. Financial
statements shall be prepared in accordance with the applicable requirements of
Formats 9A, B, C, D, and E. All money amounts required to be shown in financial
statements may be expressed in even dollars or thousands of dollars. If shown in even
thousands, an indication to that e ffect shall be inserted immediately beneath the
caption of the statement or schedule, or at the top of each money column. The
individual amounts shown need not be adjusted to the nearest dollar or thousand if the
failure of the items to add to the totals shown is stated in a note as due to the
dropping of amounts of less than $1.00 or $1,000, as appropriate.
(2) Items not material. If the amount that would otherwise be required to be
shown with respect to any item is not material, it need not be separately set forth.
(3) Inapplicable captions and omission of unrequired or inapplicable financial
statements. No caption need be shown in any financial statement required by the
forms set forth in this Part as to which the items and conditions are not present.
Financial statements not required or inapplicable because the required matter is not
present need not be filed, but the statements omitted and the reasons for their
omission shall be indicated in the list of financial statements required by the
applicable form.




-8-

(4) Additional information. In addition to the information required with respect
to any financial statement, such further information shall be furnished as is necessary
to make the required statem ents, in the light of the circumstances under which they
are made, not misleading.
(5) Changes in accounting principles and practices and retroactive adjustments of
accounts. Any change in accounting principle or practice, or in the method of applying
any accounting principle or practice, made during any period for which financial
statements are filed that affects comparability of such financial statements with
those of prior or future periods and the e ffect thereof upon the net income for each
period for which financial statements are filed, shall be disclosed in a note to the
appropriate financial statement. Any material retroactive adjustment made during
any period for which financial statements are filed, and the effect thereof upon net
income of prior periods, shall be disclosed in a note to the appropriate financial
statement.

(6) Summary of accounting principles and practices. Information required in
notes as to accounting principles and practices reflected in the financial statements
may be presented in the form of a single statement. In such a case specific references
shall be made in the appropriate financial statements to the applicable portion of such
single statement.
(7) Reacquired evidences of indebtedness. Reacquired evidences of indebtedness
shall be deducted from the appropriate liability caption.
(8) Reacquired shares. When authorized by statute, reacquired shares not retired
shall be shown separately as a deduction from capital shares, or from the total of
capital shares and other stockholders' equity, at either par or stated value, or cost, as
circumstances require.
(9) Foreign activities. If assets, or operating income, or income (loss) before
taxes and securities gains (losses), or net income (loss) associated with foreign
activities, exceeded 10 per cent of the corresponding amount in the related financial
statements, the following disclosures concerning foreign activities shall be furnished in
a note to the financial statements.
(i) Loans. State separately loan categories as prescribed by Schedule A,
Column C of Consolidated Report of Condition, FR 2106, as applicable. Categories of
less than 10 per cent of total loans related to foreign activities may be grouped with
all other loans.
(ii) Balances with banks in foreign countries. State separately balances with
foreign branches of other U. S. banks and with other banks in foreign countries. (See
line 5(a) and (b) of Schedule C, Column C of Consolidated Report of Condition,
FR 2106.) Also furnish the amount of interest-bearing balances included above.
(iii) Deposit liabilities.
Furnish deposit information as prescribed in
Schedule F/F of Consolidated Report of Condition, FR 2106. State also amount of
interest-bearing deposits in denominations of $100,000 or more.

State separately short-term borrowings, other
liabilities for borrowed money, and other indebtedness related to foreign activities
corresponding to the amounts reported on the Balance Sheet (Format F-9A) Items 18,
20, 21 and 25.
(v) Income and expense summary. For each period for which an income
statement is filed, furnish information as prescribed in Part 1, Column B and Part 2 of
the Statement of Income FR 2107s. State in a note the basis of pricing money
transfers and the policy governing allocation of income and expenses to foreign
activities.
(vi) Allowance for possible loan losses.
For each period for which a
statement of income is filed, furnish in a note a reconciliation of changes in the
allowance for possible loan losses applicable to loans related to foreign activities.
(vii) If disclosure above is required, state separately in a note for each
significant geographic area, and in the aggregate for all other geographic areas not
deemed significant, the following.
(a) total assets (net of valuation allowances)
(b) total operating income
(c) income (loss) before taxes and securities gains (losses)
(d) net income (loss)
Note: A ’’significant geographic area" is one whose assets, operating
income, or net income exceed 10 per cent of the comparable
amount as reported in the related financial statements.
(10) Foreign currencies.
The basis of conversion of all items in foreign
currencies shall be stated, and the amount and disposition of the resuiting unrealized
profit or loss shown. Disclosure should be made as to the effect, insofar as this can be
reasonably determined, of foreign exchange restrictions upon the consolidated
financial position and operating results of the bank and its subsidiaries.
(11) Commitments. If material in amount, the pertinent facts relative to firm
commitments for the acquisition, directly or indirectly, of fixed assets and for the
purchase, repurchase, construction, or rental of assets under long-term leases shall be
stated briefly in the balance sheet or in footnotes referred to therein. Where the
rentals or obligations under long-term leases are material the following shall be set
forth in a note to the appropriate financial statement:
(i) Total rental expense (reduced by rentals from subleases, with disclosure
of such amounts) entering into the determination of results of operations for each
period for which an income statement is presented shall be disclosed.
Rental
payments under short-term leases for a month or less which are not expected to be

-10-

(ii) The minimum rental commitments under all noncancelable leases shall
be disclosed, as of the date of the latest balance sheet required, in the aggregate for
(A) each of the five succeeding fiscal years and (B) the remainder as a single amount.
The amounts so determined should be reduced by rentals to be received from existing
noncancelable subleases (with disclosure of the amounts of such rentals). For purposes
of this rule, a noncancelable lease is defined as one that has an initial or remaining
term of more than one year and is noncancelable, or is cancelable only upon the
occurrence of some remote contingency or upon the payment of a substantial penalty.
(iii) Additional disclosures shall be made to report in general terms; (A) the
basis for calculating rental payments if dependent upon factors other than the lapse of
time; (B) existence and terms of renewal or purchase options, escalation clauses, etc.;
(C) the nature and amount of related guarantees made or obligations assumed; (D)
restrictions on paying dividends, incurring additional debt, further leasing, etc.; and (E)
any other information necessary to assess the effect of lease commitments upon the
financial position, results of operations, and changes in financial position of the lessee.
(12)
General notes to balance sheets. If present with respect to the bank for
which the statement is filed, the following shall be set forth in the balance sheet or in
referenced notes thereto. Information required by items (i), (v), (vi), (vii), (viii), (ix)
and (x) below shall be provided with the most recent fiscal year balance sheet and any
interim date balance sheet being filed.
(i) Assets subject to lien. The amounts of assets mortgaged, pledged, or
otherwise subject to a lien or security interest shall be designated and the obligation
secured thereby, if any, shall be identified briefly.
(ii) Intercompany profits and losses. The effect upon any balance sheet item
of profits or losses, resulting from transactions with affiliated companies and not
eliminated shall be stated.
If impracticable of accurate determination without
unreasonable effort or expense, an estim ate or explanation shall be given.
(iii) Pension and retirement plans. (A) A brief description of the essential
provisions of any employee pension or retirement plan and of the accounting and
funding policies relating thereto shall be given; (B) The estimated annual cost of the
plan shall be stated; (C) If a plan has not been funded or otherwise provided for, the
estimated amount that would be necessary to fund or otherwise provide for the pastservice cost of the plan shall be disclosed; (D) The excess, if any, of the actuarially
computed value of vested benefits over the total of the pension fund and any balance
sheet accruals, less any pension prepayments or deferred charges, shall be stated as of
the most recent practicable date; (E) A statement shall be given of the nature and
effect of significant matters affecting comparability of pension costs for which
income statements are presented.
(iv) Capital stock optioned to officers and employees. (A) A brief description
of the terms of each option arrangement shall be given, including the title and amount
of securities subject to the option, the year or years during which the options were
granted, and the year or years during which the optionees became, or will become,
entitled to exercise the options; (B) There shall be stated the number of shares under
option at the balance sheet date, and the option price and the fair value thereof (per




-1 1 -

share and in total) at the dates the options were granted; the number of shares with
respect to which options became exercisable during the period, and the option price
and the fair value thereof (per share and in total) at the dates the options became
exercisable; the number of shares with respect to which options were exercised during
the period, and the option price and the fair value thereof (per share and in total) at
the dates the options were exercised; and the number of unoptioned shares available at
the beginning and at the close of the latest period presented, for the granting of
options under an option plan.
A brief description of the terms of each other
arrangement covering shares sold or offered for sale to only directors, officers, and
key employees shall be given, including the number of shares, and the offered price
and the fair value thereof (per share and in total) at the dates of sale or offer to sell,
as appropriate. The required information may be summarized as appropriate with
respect to each of the categories referred to in this subclause (B); (C) The basis of
accounting for such option arrangements and the amount of charges, if any, reflected

which the change in accountants took place or during the subsequent fiscal year there
have been any transactions or events similar to those which involved the reported
disagreement, and (D) such transactions or events were material and were accounted

apparently would have concluded was required, state the existence and nature of the
disagreement and also state the effect on the financial statements if the method had
been followed which the former accountant apparently concluded was required. The
