A report on this form may be filed jointly by the SBIC and the bank, or separate reports may be filed by the SBIC and the bank if such reports together contain all of the information required by this form. Where a joint report is filed, the SBIC and the bank may indicate which of the information set forth therein has been furnished by each. A report or reports shall be filed for every semi-annual accounting period during which one or more of the events set forth in the introductions to Parts I and II of this form occurred. No report need be filed for any period in which none of such events occurred. 2. Time for Filing Reports. Reports on this form shall be filed with the Commission not later than 30 days after the end of the six-months' period during which an event or events required to be reported occurred. A report will be deemed to have been filed with the Commission on the date it is received. 3. Number of Copies to Be Filed. An original and two copies of each report on this form shall be filed with the Commission and one copy shall be filed with the Small Business Administration. 4. Preparation of Report. This form is not to be used as a blank form to be filled in, but only as a guide in the preparation of the report on paper meeting the requirements of Rule 8b-12 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, except that the report shall be filed on paper approximately 8½ x 11 inches in size. The report shall contain the numbers of all items required to be answered but the text of any item may be omitted provided the answer thereto is so prepared as to indicate to the reader the coverage of the item without the necessity of referring to the text of the item.
