I blogged earlier this week about topics in the SEC’s Reg E-Delivery proposal that companies may want to consider commenting on before the designated comment period expires on September 21st. One concern that I’ve heard bubbling up from conversations with some community members is a perception that the proposal could actually increase companies’ printing and delivery expenses by eliminating the “Notice of Internet Availability” as a permissible delivery method for proxy statements. Please participate in this anonymous poll to share your thoughts:

If you want to provide input to the SEC, now is the time. We’re posting memos in our “E-Delivery” Practice Area that summarize the proposal and the requirements for electing to use electronic delivery as your default delivery method. Consider reaching out to your outside counsel if you need to get up to speed on how the proposal would apply to your specific company and the comment letters that are underway – you could participate in a comment letter if you’re a member of a trade organization that’s submitting one, or through your counsel.
