a. Broker-dealers, Broker-dealer Agents. Upon written request, the Administrator, in his discretion, may allow use by a broker-dealer of the name of an entity which is not registered with the Department as a broker-dealer if, in all communications and advertising, a notation is prominently displayed indicating that all securities transactions are made through a named registered broker-dealer. However, any and all payments received must be in the name of the registered broker-dealer. The Administrator may impose any further conditions or restrictions on the use of the nonregistered name that he deems appropriate for the protection of the public. Except as provided in this rule, the use of unregistered names by a broker-dealer is prohibited.

All advising, transactions, communications, and advertising regarding securities and the conducting of business as an investment adviser must be accomplished under the name of the investment adviser that is currently registered with the Department.
