The amendment filing shall include a cover letter that explains the nature of the material changes and copies of all amended documents that are clearly marked to identify the material changes. The registrant shall provide further explanation or information upon request by the administrator. Upon approval by the administrator, the amendment may be filed electronically.
(d) Extensions of registration.

If the extension application is filed before the most recent audited financial statements are available, the issuer shall undertake to file an updated prospectus containing the statements no later than 90 days after the end of the issuer's fiscal year.
(2) The effective date of each extended registration shall be one year after the previous effective date.
