(i) Copies for prospective purchasers. Copies of the financial statements filed with the Statement of Record shall be made available to prospective purchasers upon request.

These statements shall contain financial information only and shall not include any promotional material such as that usually set forth in annual reports.
(j) Change from audited to unaudited statements.
(1) Developers who file audited statements must continue with audited statements throughout the duration of the registration unless, at a later date, the developer submits amendments which demonstrate to the satisfaction of the Director that it then qualifies for an exception from audited statements under paragraph (e)(3)(ii) of this section. For purposes of paragraph (e)(3)(ii)(C) of this section, the Director will consider the aggregate sales prices of only the lots yet to be sold, and may consider whether any additions to the subdivisions or reacquisitions of lots already sold would be likely to cause the dollar limits to be exceeded.

(iv) The developer then qualifies for exception (e)(3)(iii) or (iv) of this section.
(2) The Director may allow a developer, who has made sales prior to registration, to submit unaudited statements under the provisions of paragraph (j)(1)(i) of this section. The developer must demonstrate to the satisfaction of the Director that the acceptance of unaudited statements would not be a detriment to the public interest or to the protection of purchasers.
