A. A person shall register as a broker-dealer, agent, investment adviser, or investment adviser representative by filing an application that contains:
1. The information required for the filing of a uniform application, a consent to service of process complying with Section 49 of this act, the fee specified in Section 50 of this act and any reasonable fees charged by the designee of the Administrator for processing the filing; and
2. Upon request by the Administrator, any other financial or other information that the Administrator determines is appropriate.
B. If the information contained in an application that is filed under subsection A of this section is or becomes inaccurate or incomplete in any material respect, the registrant shall promptly file a correcting amendment.
C. If an order is not in effect and a proceeding is not pending under Section 28 of this act, registration becomes effective at noon on the 45th day after a completed application is filed unless the registration is denied. A rule adopted or order issued under this act may set an earlier effective date or may defer the effective date until noon on the 45th day after the filing of any amendment completing the application.
D. A registration is effective until midnight on December 31 of the year for which the application for registration is filed. Unless an order is in effect under Section 28 of this act, a registration may be automatically renewed each year by filing such records as are required by rule adopted or order issued under this act, by paying the fee specified in Section 50 of this act, and by paying costs charged by the designee of the Administrator for processing the filings.
E. A rule adopted or order issued under this act may impose such other conditions not inconsistent with the National Securities Markets Improvement Act of 1996. An order issued under this act may waive, in whole or in part, specific requirements in connection with registration as are in the public interest and for the protection of investors.
