    (1) Sending thirteen copies of the information set out in Sec. 
800.402 to the Staff Chairman of the Committee on Foreign Investment in

Avenue, NW., Washington, DC 20220; or
    (2) Sending:
    (i) One signed paper copy of the information set out in Sec. 
800.402 to the Staff Chairman of the Committee on Foreign Investment in 
the United States (``Staff Chairman''), Office of International 
Investment, Department of the Treasury, 15th Street and Pennsylvania 
Avenue, NW., Washington, DC 20220; and
    (ii) One electronic copy of this same information in Adobe Acrobat 
(PDF) or Microsoft Word format to the following e-mail address: 
CFIUS@do.treas.gov. Electronic filings that exceed 5 Megabytes (MB) will 
need to be divided into smaller transmissions of no more than 5 MB each, 
which should be sent individually as attachments to separate e-mails.
    (b) Any member of the Committee may submit an agency notice of a 
proposed or completed acquisition to the Committee through its Staff 
Chairman if that member has reason to believe, based on facts then 
available, that the acquisition is subject to section 721 and may have 
adverse impacts on the national security. In the event of agency notice, 
the Committee will promptly furnish the parties to the acquisition with 
written advice of such notice.
    (c) No agency notice, or review or investigation by the Committee, 
shall be made with respect to a transaction more than three years after 
the date of conclusion of the transaction, unless the Chairman of the 
Committee, in consultation with other members of the Committee, requests 
an investigation.
    (d) No communications other than those described in paragraphs (a), 
(b) and (c) of this section shall constitute notice for purposes of 
section 721. In any case where a party or parties file(s) electronically 
under paragraph (a) of this section, the signed paper copy shall 
constitute the original copy, and CFIUS will not notify the parties of 
its acceptance of a filing until the original copy has been received by 
the Office of International Investment.
