- AVolume limitations
- BManner of sale requirements
- CForm 144 filing requirement
- DNone of the above — all restrictions are lifted for non-affiliates after one year✓ Correct answer
Explanation
Why D — None of the above — all restrictions are lifted for non-affiliates after one year
For non-affiliates holding restricted securities of a reporting company, all Rule 144 restrictions (including volume limitations, manner of sale requirements, current public information requirement, and Form 144 filing) are removed after a one-year holding period. Non-affiliates of reporting companies may sell freely after one year. Affiliates, however, remain subject to volume, manner of sale, and filing requirements indefinitely.
