Rob,
Alexis (Zapara) was hired to promote AZNT. Randall Baker was an employee of Dempsey Mork. He was the compliance officer of PEMP, a Canadian brokerage firm owned by DVBC (Dempsey Mork). Mr. Baker was also employed by MAGELLAN (Dempsey Mork) .
This is an edit from a correspondence from an individual that we feel is Mr. Randall Baker ,who stated to us he was hired to promote AZNT with Zapara;
---------"The major short in AZNT is with Zapara. That happened in a rather strange
manner.
Zapara was given over 400,000 shares of S-8 stock and could not support the
stock as he said he would. The stock was recalled from Zapara legally. He
resisted but AZNT got a temporary restraining order against ZAPARA selling
any more stock. Several accounts that he had under different names and with
different Securities firms were notified by the Judge to freeze the accounts.
All of the stock and money was and still is frozen. A permanent restraining
order was issued by the courts. As far as we can tell, Zapara sold about 1/2
the position. AZNT is currently working legally to obtain the shares back
from the various accounts. The court will, I am confident, instruct the
Securities firms to return the securities at the next court hearing. Hence,
there is a short by default. The money is in the accounts and will be used to
go out and buy the securities. If Zapara is short money wise, then he will
have to pony up the money to buy the shares regardless the cost. If there is
not enough money in the accounts, then the brokerage firms will have to pay
for the stocks out of their pockets. Mork is not shorting AZNT. He is
involved with too many other things, including the law suit he has with
OVIS/RMIL. I am not involved with Mork in any manner, however if he wants to
pay me a consulting fee for any reason, I will probably work for him. Him
paying me is not likely. Mork is being kind to Zapara so that he may get
100,000 shares of OVIS from him and that is the only reason. If Zapara
cooperates with Mork, then Zapara will be released from the lawsuit. Any
other shorts with AZNT are minimal." ------------
Again, Mr. Zapara was hired to "promote" AZNT. Mr. Baker is correct about AZNT freezing Mr. Zapara's accounts. It is also important to note to what extremes AZNT is going to to rid themselves of shorts from the AZNT market;
