PUBLIC ADMINISTRATIVE AND CEASE AND DESIST PROCEEDINGS INSTITUTED AGAINST INDIVIDUAL FOR SELLING UNREGISTERED SECURITIES AND ACTING AS A BROKER WITHOUT REGISTRATION

On November 4, the Commission instituted public administrative and cease and desist proceedings, pursuant to Section 8A of the Securities Act of 1933 (Securities Act) and Sections 15(b)(6), 19(h) and 21C of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (Exchange Act), against Respondent Jerry C. Berman for willfully violating, and committing or causing violations of, Section 5 of the Securities Act and Section 15(a)(1) of the Exchange Act.

The Division of Enforcement alleged that Respondent, as a consultant to Stratcomm Media Ltd. (Stratcomm) and Corporate Relations Group, Inc. (CRG) its wholly-owned subsidiary, sold more than 310,000 shares of Stratcomm common stock in violation of the registration provision of the federal securities laws, earning commissions from Stratcomm and CRG of over $50,000. Stratcomm had not filed a registration statement concerning these common stock sales, nor was there a registration statement in effect or an exemption from registration available to Stratcomm. Moreover, Respondent was not registered as a broker. (Rel. 33-7768; 34-42107; File No. 3-10092)

From today's SEC Digest:

DISTRICT COURT ENTERS FINAL JUDGMENTS AGAINST AMMONIA HOLD, INC. AND MICHAEL PARNELL PERMANENTLY ENJOINING THEM FROM VIOLATING ANTIFRAUD AND REGISTRATION PROVISIONS OF THE FEDERAL SECURITIES LAWS

The Commission announced today that, on December 28, 1999, the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida entered Final Judgments against Ammonia Hold, Inc. (Ammonia Hold), a Little Rock, Arkansas company that manufactures odor-eliminating products for consumer and industrial markets, and Michael D. Parnell (Parnell) a major Ammonia Hold shareholder and one-time president of the company.

Without admitting or denying the Commission's allegations, Ammonia Hold and Parnell consented to the entry of a judgment which permanently enjoins them from violating Sections 5(a), 5(c) and 17(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 (Securities Act) and Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (Exchange Act) and Rule 10b-5 thereunder. The judgment also requires Parnell to pay a $25,000 civil penalty.

The Commission alleged that Ammonia Hold and Parnell violated the registration requirements of the Securities Act in the issuance and sale of its stock to a public relations firm known as Corporate Relations Group, Inc. (CRG). The Commission also charged Ammonia Hold and Parnell with fraudulently reporting the proceeds of the sale of stock to CRG, through co-defendant Fondo de Adquisiciones E Inversiones Internacionales XL, S.A. (Fondo), as licensing revenues. The proceeds of the stock sales should have been reported as infusions of capital in a report required to be filed with the Commission, in a press release and on the Ammonia Hold's website.

The Commission's enforcement action, which alleged a variety of federal securities laws violations, including violations of the antifraud, antitouting and registration provisions, is still pending in the Middle District of Florida. For further information, see LR-16294, September 27, 1999. [SEC v. Corporate Relations Group, Inc., et al., Civil Action No. 99-1222-CV-22-A, M.D. Fla., Orlando] (LR-16415)
