Important Note: A 144 filer may not be an insider by the SEC's definition, and may not have to file a Form 4 if and when the shares are sold. 13D - Schedule 13D. This SEC document is filed by holders of 5% or more of any class of a company's shares. When a person or entity first reaches the 5% ownership level, a 13D must be filed within 10 days and the intention of the investment must be stated on the form. Subsequent trades must be promptly stated on an amended 13D. If there is not a B (for buy) or S (for sale) designation, you must look at the change in total holdings to determine if the amendment shows an increase or decrease in ownership. 13D-B - Schedule 13D with the B (for buy) designation supplied. 13D-S - Schedule 13D with the S (for sale) designation supplied. 3 - Form 3. Used by insiders to state their initial holdings. This Form must be filed 10 days after insider status is attained, even if no shares are owned. 13G - Form 13G.
