The US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) requires that Form 144 filings be made electronically via EDGAR, commencing April 13, 2023. Currently, Form 144 may either be mailed to the SEC or submitted electronically via EDGAR. For more information on the electronic filing requirements for Form 144, see our prior blog post.

In connection with the mandatory electronic filing requirement, the SEC has extended the filing hours for Form 144 from 5:30 p.m. to 10:00 p.m., Eastern Standard Time or Eastern Daylight Saving Time, whichever is currently in effect, on SEC business days. The new filing hours become effective on March 20, 2023.

Rule 144 is an SEC safe harbor from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933 for resales. Form 144 is a notice of a sale of securities pursuant to this safe harbor.
