Idiom: require someone to do something --> C

doesn't the verb require "require" a subjunctive mood?

Only if it is uncertain whether the one who is required to do something, actually does it.
Here, "require" is a rule by the SEC that everyone has to follow.

Subjunctive is used only when there is uncertainty. The rule 13(d) of the SEC is a fact. When a sentence reflects uncertainty in the form of a 'request' or 'hope' then one could use a subjunctive verb.

Suspicion confirmed; it is the absence of "that" that makes it not subjunctive... One definitely to remember for D-day.

Nice Question.
The verb "Require" can be used as with subjunctive or infinitive.

The general construct of sentences with subjunctive verb is as follows-
(subjective verb) THAT (subject) BE (simple form of verb)
Example : A requires that B disclose his marks.

Since in the question in this discussion does not used"that" after 'requires', we cannot used subjunctive.
So, we are need to use infinitive which makes (C) the correct answer.
