Suggested Answer: C 🗳️
A stock that is listed on the OTC Bulletin Board would not be exempt from state registration unless it already happens to be registered under the
Uniform Securities Act. Variable annuities and stocks listed on the American Stock Exchange are classified as federal covered securities by the NSMIA of 1996 and are exempt from state registration. An amendment to the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 exempts option contracts from state registration.
