A secondary problem is that many companies File Forms 15 without being qualified to do so. For the Form 15 to be valid, the company must be current at the time it's filed.
And they need to file 10-K's etc for the current year even if these are not due until after the deregistration date - or no?
Have you ever seen the SEC subsequently zap a company for previously having filed an invalid Form 15?
