If such a day falls on Saturday, Sunday or statutory holiday, the report is due on the next business day. The reporting month is the month on which the report is based (e.g. for the report due on December 14, the reporting month would be November). Please see Appendix A of this form for the e-mail address or link to the electronic form designated by each of the CSA regulators for this purpose. You must review your records on a continuing basis for any dealing with Designated Persons. You must consult with the CSA Guide to Monthly Suppression of Terrorism and Canadian Sanctions Reporting before filing the report. Notes: These Notes are provided as general information only.

You should refer to these laws for full details regarding your obligations. * For reports filed with the OSC as the principal regulator, you will need to complete and submit the electronic form if your firms name appears on the drop-down menu in the electronic form. If your name does not appear you will need to email your report to UNReports@osc.gov.on.ca. 1. The information required in this report is required pursuant to section 83.11 of the Criminal Code (Canada) and other Canadian federal legislation requiring Monthly STCS Reports. Members of the Investment Industry Regulatory Organization of Canada (IIROC) are requested to use the appropriate reporting forms issued by, and file those forms with, IIROC. 2. All reports must cover continuous dates and there must be no gaps in the reporting periods starting with the first day of each month and ending with the last day. 3. All amounts must be stated in Canadian dollars. NOTE: If the original amount of the property frozen is denominated in a currency other than Canadian dollars, then the Canadian dollar equivalent should be reported using the same rate of exchange that was in effect on the date that the property was originally frozen and reported to law enforcement. 5
4. You must include information from any branches located outside Canada. 5. This is an aggregate report of dealings that Registrants/Exempt Dealers/Exempt Advisers have with Designated Persons.
