Executive Summary
The purpose of this Special Notice to Members is to inform members of the upcoming nomination and election process to fill forthcoming vacancies on the District Committees and the District Nominating Committees.
Information on District Committee and District Nominating Committee members serving through 2003, 2004, and 2005 is included in Attachment A. Information on District Election Procedures is included in Attachment B. A candidate profile sheet is included in Attachment C.
Nomination Process
Individuals from member firms of all sizes and segments of the industry are encouraged to submit names for consideration for membership on the 11 District Committees and District Nominating Committees. Members are requested to submit candidates' names to the appropriate District Nominating Committee Chairman or to the District Director by submitting a cover letter and the candidate profile sheet (Attachment C) by August 5.
Completed forms will be provided to all District Nominating Committee members for review. It is anticipated that the District Nominating Committees will certify their nominees to the District Committees on or about September 23.
Members are reminded of the importance to accurately maintain their Executive Representative name and e-mail address information, as well as their firm's main postal address. This will ensure that member mailings, such as election information, will be properly directed. Failure to keep this information accurate may jeopardize the member's ability to participate in District elections as well as other member votes. To update the Executive Representative name and e-mail address, firms should access their NASD Member Firm Contact Questionnaire (NMFCQ) located on the NASD Web Site (www.nasdr.com/disclaimer.asp).
To update postal address information, the firm must file a Form BD Amendment via the Web CRD system. For assistance updating either of these systems, you may contact our Call Center at (301) 590-6500.
Questions/Further Information
Questions concerning this Special Notice may be directed to the District Director noted or to Barbara Z. Sweeney, Senior Vice President and Corporate Secretary, NASD, at (202) 728-8062 or via e-mail at [email protected].
