SEC EDGAR Hours of Operation, Deadlines, and Holidays

Please note the following EDGAR filing hours and daily deadlines:

EDGAR Filing Hours	Vancouver / Seattle	Calgary	Toronto / New York
The hours in which the SEC accepts filings.	3 AM - 7 PM	4 AM - 8 PM	6 AM- 10 PM
The SEC deadline to receive the same-day filing date stamps for Section 16 Ownership Reports (Forms 3, 4, and 5)	7:00 PM	8:00 PM	10:00 PM
The SEC deadline to receive the same-day filing date stamp for all other submissions.	2:30 PM	3:30 PM	5:30 PM

If a filing is submitted after 5:30 PM or 10:00 PM EST, for non ownership reports and ownership reports respectively, it will not be deemed filed with the SEC until the following business day (except for the "T+3" filings, made pursuant to Rule 462(b), which will receive the date of the actual filing). If you have any questions about your filing's acceptance date, consult the electronic acceptance message which we forward to you after submitting your filing; these messages state the official filing date.
