I think it's A) 8-K. It's for significant events.

Not sure if the 8-K is enough for such a serious issue.

10-K is for annual reports, not this situation.

Definitely an 8-K filing needed for that code change.

10-K would be too late for this kind of update, right?

I feel like the 8300 is about cash transactions over $10,000, so that doesn't seem right. I lean towards 8-K too, but I'm not completely confident.

I practiced a similar question where a company had to report a significant event, and I think it was definitely an 8-K.

I'm not entirely sure, but I remember something about 10-K being more about annual reports. Could it be 10-Q instead?

I think the answer might be 8-K since it relates to significant events that shareholders should know about, like changes in the code of conduct.
