B. The total expenses for marketing securities, including all commissions for the sale of such securities, and all other incidental selling expenses, shall not in the aggregate exceed twenty per cent (20%) of the price at which the stock or other securities of any proposed or existing company are to be sold, or offered for sale, to the public of this State; and this amount may be limited by the Commissioner to a less percentage which is in his opinion fair, just and equitable under the facts of the particular case.
C. In connection with any permit to sell securities the Commissioner shall require all offers for sale of said securities to be made through and by prospectus which fairly discloses the material facts about the plan of finance and business. Said prospectus shall be filed with and approved by the Commissioner; provided, however, if the applicant files a prospectus or offering circular with the Commissioner which is also filed with the S.E.C. under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the regulations thereunder, this subsection shall in all respects be satisfied. Failure to comply with this requirement shall be treated as a violation of this Act, subjecting the parties responsible to the consequences thereof as provided herein.
