PURPOSE: This rule prescribes policies and procedures for withdrawing or terminating the registration of securities.

1. (1) An order of withdrawal of an application (prior to effectiveness) may be issued by the commissioner upon the request of the applicant (section 409.305(h), RSMo).
2. (2) The abandonment or discontinuance of a proposed offering which is the subject of an application, without request for withdrawal or the dormancy of an application without amendment for a period of six (6) months or more after filing, may be considered to signify a request for withdrawal.
3. (3) In the event of an omission or non-compliance as to any requirement for registration, the applicant shall be notified of the omission or noncompliance. Failure to comply with the requirement may be deemed ground for issuance of a stop order under section 409.306 of the Act.
