Thanks, Mithras, but what appears is being misunderstood is the purpose of the Certification form. The OTCQB Certification form does allow a company to certify itself for trading on the OTCQB. Rather, it is the method by which the company certifies that it meets the requirements for admission to the OTCQB.
Here is a link to the Certification form where we can see that this is the case.
To your point about liability, the OTCQB Application form says the following...
5.4 Responsibility for Content. The Company shall have complete responsibility, and the Company understands and agrees that OTC Markets Group will have no responsibility or liability whatsoever, for any and all Content, whether publicly posted or privately delivered, transmitted, uploaded, posted, emailed or otherwise posted through OTCIQ by or on behalf of the Company using Company Credentials or otherwise...
and, in the same section 5.4... OTC Markets Group has no duty to review or edit any Content, but may revise or edit the Content to improve its conformity to the requirements of the OTC Disclosure & News Service and for any other reasonable purpose.
