(i) the amount of money to be raised if all apartments are sold;

(ii) the name and address of the cooperative corporation (which shall not be a general name for several co-ops, but the specific name of the corporation whose stock is being offered);

(iii) the approximate date of the proposed first offer to the public. The term of the initial offer is 12 months, commencing on the filing date indicated in the letter from the Department of Law;

(iv) a listing of the names and addresses of the actual promoters (whether they be builders, general contractors, landowners, etc.), which shall include dummy corporations only at the bottom of such listing (unless such listing is included on the face of the first inside leaf); and

(v) the names and addresses of the selling agents.

(ii) If the promoters reserve the right to change the price of any apartment without substantial limitation, then such fact and the effects thereof shall be set forth within the plan and such fact must be included in easily readable, bold print on the front cover of the offering plan. And in such case, the front page statement shall be as follows:

(iii) And above the price schedule, in such case, there shall be the statement:

(i) A description of the premises and locality, including but not limited to:

(ii) The assessed valuation and tax rate for the past two years, also indicating the approximate date for each assessment; if new construction, the fact that the assessment is open for determination by the government units involved, and will affect any projection now made of real estate taxes.

(iii) Attached to and made a part of the plan of cooperative organization, there shall be a concise separate schedule of the description of the land, buildings, apartments and equipment to be owned by the cooperative corporation, which shall include detailed information concerning those factors pertinent to the particular type of offering. Examples of factors to be considered, where relevant are: type of landfill; the general nature of structure (concrete, steel, etc.); exterior and interior walls and facing; floors and ceilings; bathrooms; painting and papering; roof; insulation and heating; windows and doors; kitchen equipment; patios, sun decks, terraces, etc.; hardware and lighting fixtures; ventilators and air conditioning; basement; water supply (including name of company servicing area); sanitary sewage system, plumbing and storm water disposal; swimming pool, boat mooring and other recreational facilities (if such facilities are to be owned by cooperative organization, full information as to the size, type of construction, name of contractor and scheduled date of completion); TV antenna; landscaping; parking and garaging; laundry facilities; public halls, stairways, entrances and exits; elevators; disposal facilities; service personnel and duties; storage space per apartment and general storage facilities; special sources of income for the cooperative organization. Irrespective of above, where all or most of the prospective purchasers have been in actual residence in the premises for several years (as in the case of rent-controlled conversions), emphasis should be on present condition of premises, including deficiencies probably unknown to occupants, rather than description of material make-up visually obvious to each resident.

(iv) Date of construction or scheduled completion of construction.

(v) Date present owner acquired property.

(vi) Type of deed to be conveyed.

(vii) The financial details: the terms of all institutional and other financing, including rate of interest, method of amortization (and whether self-liquidating), amount of each mortgage, rights pertaining to prepayment, the names and addresses of all present and prospective holders of relevant mortgages and the status of all commitments, a description of any governmental mortgage, insurance or guaranty; the necessity for future refinancing of “balloon-type” mortgages, if applicable, and the concurrent problem of additional assessments.

(viii) A separate schedule including: identification of each apartment; number of rooms and baths in each; the allocation of shares; the stock price per apartment; the estimated annual expense and maintenance per share, per apartment and per total of all apartments.

(ix) Miscellaneous expenses incurred or to be incurred in effecting the offering, including a breakdown of selling commissions, realty brokerage fees, legal expenses, accounting fees, mortgage placement and processing fees, advertising expenses, special payments to any person or firm for any services, counsel or other reason relating to the offering and not otherwise covered by this Part. Insofar as legal and accounting fees are concerned, the aforesaid relates only to amounts paid by the cooperative corporation, which fees may be grouped together with other expenses, in a reasonable manner, where the individual fees are not paid to any of the promoters or firms associated with them. A “promoter” for this purpose is not meant to include members of any law firm merely used to fill cooperative corporation offices on a temporary basis.

(x) The names of the recipients of the expenditures set forth in the preceding subparagraph and the relationship, if any, directly or indirectly, to any of the promoters.

(xi) The approximate amount of any inspection fee to be paid to any government agency for physical inspection or appraisal of the property (FHA, NYS Retirement Fund, etc.).

(xii) A breakdown of projected maintenance (including labor) charges, including: the projected totals for itemized expenses and the basis thereof (whether based on the figures of the previous owner, promoter's estimate, etc.) indicating the specific qualification of all persons making such projections and the basis upon which the projections are made; specific coverage of “maintenance charges”, and whether it includes utilities, telephone, garage, rights to recreational facilities (such as swimming pools); whether the projection is based on joint contracting not obligatory by proprietary lease agreement; if the cooperative corporation is only one of several in the same development area, whether the projected charges are based on projections made for prior offerings; and if so, whether such prior projections have proved accurate; whether the applicable tax assessment has been made, and if not, how the real estate taxes and other relevant taxes have been projected; and whether the projection is the work of, or has been approved by any government agency (such as FHA).

(xiii) Promoters' (including builders') profits are specifically required by section 352-e of the General Business Law. The profits of each promoter (including all dummy entities, nominees, agencies, or other intermediaries subject to his control, directly or indirectly) shall be given or projected with conditioning language where the exact profit cannot be given. In the latter case, the maximum possible profit should be projected with a summary of the many conditions that may affect the eventual profit or loss. Where, however, part or all of the promoters' profits come solely from the sale or other transfer of land, building or interest therein, the original cost thereof and resulting profit need not be given if the particular promoter has held continuous control of such ownership or interest for three years prior to the proposed first offering of cooperative apartments.

(xiv) Provisions made for units unsold at the time the cooperative takes title (including the name of the person to whom such reserved units may be transferred, whether or not they will be held by a nominee, the obligations assumed by such holder, any rights and restrictions which have been imposed on the selling price of reserved units, and the voting position relative to such reserved units).

(xv) The description of major concessions to commercial tenants or purchasers or other transferees of apartments. For all conversions of existing rent controlled buildings in New York State, there shall be included a general summary in a short paragraph of essential provisions of municipal or State statutes and regulations which govern the rights of the tenants in occupancy not wishing to participate in the cooperative venture and the procedures necessary for the cooperative or nonoccupant purchaser to acquire possession from such tenants.

(xvi) The nature of any contractual obligations or bonds, whether in writing or otherwise, and conditions or limitations attached thereto. The word “guarantee” should be avoided, because of its misleading nature.

(xvii) A projected statement of income and expenses for the first full year of operation by the cooperative organization with identification of the source of such projection and the basis thereof. If any such figures are expected to change in the following year or years, it shall be so stated.

(xviii) Whether or not a letter of adequacy for the projected maintenance charges has been issued by the selling agent, managing agent or any other source.

(xix) If the cooperative organization itself has contracted new construction, a schedule of payments to the builder or contractor and indication whether there will be any certification prior to the disbursement of money at various stages of completion.

(xx) Any existing law suits or other proceedings against the cooperative organization, any promoter, the managing agent, the sales agent or any other person or firm connected with the offering, which could materially affect this offering.

(xxi) Whether or not there shall be distributed to stockholders any or all of the following annually: a tax deduction statement, an annual report of total corporate affairs, including a balance sheet and profit and loss statement certified by an independent certified public accountant (required by section 352-e of the General Business Law); and a notice of the holding of an annual stockholders meeting for the purpose of election of a board of directors.

(xxii) A summary of all contracts, appointments, agreements and binding obligations made by promoters (their nominees or dummies) that will be binding upon the cooperative organization after it is actually tenanted, setting forth the full details thereof, including the length of time of the obligations or arrangements and the reasons why binding agreements were made for the purpose involved (include garage concessions, laundry concessions, managing agent contracts, etc.), before the actual tenant stockholders could act upon these matters.

(xxiii) In a new construction, whether there will be a completion bond furnished by the builder and, if so, the relevant terms thereof; also the estimated date of beginning of construction, the estimated date of completion of construction, the estimated date when occupancy will be permitted and the method of determining when the building will be completed.

(xxiv) A summary of the major terms of the proprietary lease, including: relationship of stock rights to lease rights; the rights of possession and use of premises; voting rights; rights to sublet or assign and the conditions relative thereto; provisions in the event of default and nonpayment of maintenance charges, restrictions on the cancelability of lease; the duration of the lease. The inclusion in an offering plan of a true copy of the proprietary lease will ordinarily substantially reduce the need for greatly comprehensive detail in the summary portion of the offering plan.

(xxv) The terms governing deposits by prospective shareholders.

(xxvi) A summary of important features of ground leases involved in the cooperative venture, including an explanation of rights and obligations on the expiration date of any such leases.

(xxvii) A full description of the rights and obligations of the cooperative and management under any agreement made with a managing agent, including: the assignability and cancelability of the management agreement by either side; the duration of the agreement and renewability provisions, if any; fees paid to and other profits of the managing agent; whether the managing agent is or will be bonded; any relationship between managing agent or any of its officers and any promoter of the cooperative venture.

(xxviii) A special risk section that, if applicable, must be on a separate page, immediately following the table of contents. All features of a plan which involve significant risk or will disproportionately or unusually affect maintenance charges or obligations of tenant shareholders in future years of cooperative operation must be conspicuously disclosed and highlighted. A brief description of the risk should be given in this section and a more thorough description should be given in a referenced later section.
