Title: Rule 10b5-1 and Insider Trading 
Abstract:

The Division is considering recommending that the Commission adopt amendments to address concerns about the use of the affirmative defense provisions of Exchange Act Rule 10b5-1.  The Commission proposed amendments that would add new conditions to the availability of an affirmative defense under an Exchange Act rule that are designed to address concerns about abuse of the rule to opportunistically trade securities on the basis of material nonpublic information in ways that harm investors and undermine the integrity of the securities markets.
