Mr. Hong's answer is correct. I'll add this: Typically, unless there is an exemption from registration, each security being offered for sale in a state must be registered with the state Securities Commissioner. The registration of the security is sometimes referred as the security being "blue skyed," meaning that the security has been registered and it is OK to sell it in that state. You can learn more about the state regulations and find contact info. for your state at the North American Securities Administration Association (www.nasaa.org).
