Explanation

Why ACoordination is a state registration method tied to a federal Securities Act filing; using it does not by itself make the security federal covered

Registration by coordination lets a state registration become effective in coordination with a federal Securities Act registration statement. Federal covered status is a separate preemption classification under federal law; a federal filing alone does not make every offering federal covered.
