CSA Staff Notice 13-316 Amendments to the SEDAR Filer Manual Introduction The System for Electronic Document Analysis and Retrieval (SEDAR) Filer Manual (”the Manual”) was last updated in 2001. Since then, there have been many changes to SEDAR in terms of both document types and functionality. Staff of the Canadian Securities Administrators (“CSA”) are issuing this Notice to inform users that a new version of the Manual that reflects these changes is now available. The Manual sets out certain standards, procedures and guidelines for preparing electronic documents and making electronic filings using SEDAR. National Instrument 13-101 – System for Electronic Document Analysis and Retrieval (NI 13-101) requires that electronic filings with the CSA comply with the requirements of the Manual. Manual Version 8.3 The version number of the Manual is 8.3, corresponding to the most current SEDAR release, SEDAR version 8.3, implemented on September 30, 2006. The Manual will be accessible on the websites of the securities regulators in British Columbia, Alberta, Manitoba, Northwest Territories, Nova Scotia, Ontario and Quebec and the SEDAR.com website.
