(iv) An underwriter has a duty to purchase securities from an issuer at a fair and reasonable price, but must balance that duty with its duty to sell those securities to investors at prices that are fair and reasonable.
(v) An underwriter will review the official statement, if any, for those securities in accordance with, and as part of, its responsibilities to investors under the federal securities laws, as applied to the facts and circumstances of the transaction.
