Trading Suspension Mosaic Nutriceuticals Corp. Trading Suspension SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION Washington, D.C. SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934 RELEASE NO. 51122 / February 2, 2005 The Securities and Exchange Commission announced the temporary suspension, pursuant to Section 12(k) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"), of trading of the securities of Mosaic Nutriceuticals Corp. ("Mosaic"), of Lewisville, Texas at 9:30 a.m. on February 2, 2005, and terminating at 11:59 p.m. on February 15, 2005. The Commission temporarily suspended trading in the securities of Mosaic because of questions that have been raised about the accuracy and adequacy of publicly disseminated information concerning, among other things, Mosaic’s financial condition and its ability to fund advertising campaigns in support of its products. The Commission is also concerned that Mosaic and/or certain of its shareholders may have unjustifiably relied on Rule 144(k) of the Securities Act of 1933 (“Securities Act”) in conducting an unlawful distribution of its securities that failed to comply with the resale restrictions of Rules 144 and 145 of the Securities Act. The Commission cautions broker dealers, shareholders, and prospective purchasers that they should carefully consider the foregoing information along with all other currently available information and any information subsequently issued by the company. Further, brokers and dealers should be alert to the fact that, pursuant to Rule 15c2-11 under the Exchange Act, at the termination of the trading suspension, no quotation may be entered unless and until they have strictly complied with all of the provisions of the rule. If any broker or dealer has any questions as to whether or not he has complied with the rule, he should not enter any quotation but immediately contact the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission in Washington, D.C. If any broker or dealer is uncertain as to what is required by Rule 15c2-11, he should refrain from entering quotations relating to Mosaic’s securities until such time as he has familiarized himself with the rule and is certain that all of its provisions have been met. If any broker or dealer enters any quotation which is in violation of the rule, the Commission will consider the need for prompt enforcement action. If any broker dealer or other person has any information that may relate to this matter, they should immediately contact Stephen Webster (websters@sec.gov) or Eric R. Werner (wernere@sec.gov), at the Fort Worth Office of the Securities and Exchange Commission, at 817-978-3821. sec.gov Home \| Previous Page

sec seems to be halting stocks involved with "wall street watch" and they are listed on junkfax.org Wall Street Watch (penny stock tip newsletter) This is a penny stock promotion similar to Market News Alert described above. They list a removal number of 1-866-390-8832 which is a fax line (you are supposed to fax your sheet back to them to be removed). Over a year ago they were using Quick Fax Inc in Texas. They seem to be using Xpedite Systems, Inc. now (see FCC citation of May 14, 2002). Removal number (866 390 8832) traced to: Expedite Systems 5401 Chimney Rock Rd # 210 Houston, TX 77081 The leasing office for 5401 Chimney Rock Apartments can be reached at 713-661-3790. They are owned by the Praedium Group in New York City. Praedium's officers' contact information can be viewed at their website, praediumgroup.com. The complex is managed by Investors Management Trust Real Estate Group (an outfit out of Sherman Oaks who are undoubtedly familiar with the recent California anti-spam legislation). Their website (down at the moment) is www.imtreg.com. According to Richard Z. on the junfax-l, this is run by Larry Craft. That business address is an apartment in this apartment complex: 5401 Chimney Rock Apartments 5401 Chimney Rock Road, Houston, TX 77081 (713) 661-3790 From Richard Z.: Every address you turn up for WSW was at some point, a resting place for Mr. Craft. There were about three or four known address's for him. I managed to get him to call me a few months ago, first screaming and yelling and asking what it would take to make us all go away. Two minutes later he called back and apologized. I have it all on tape but still don't know where he is. You can bet his fax broadcaster does. Another posting: Has anyone successfully served Lawrence H. Craft or Stayce Rose d/b/a Wall Street Watch? I have several addresses for them in Houston, TX, at which service of process was declined. A skip trace indicates that my information was correct. If anyone has had success using any Particular special process server in Houston or particular service instructions, please advise Off list.

Hunter, Jr. The Securities and Exchange Commission announced that the Honorable David C. Norton, United States District Judge for the District of South Carolina, Charleston Division, entered a Final Judgment as to Defendant Gerald F. Hunter, Jr. (Hunter) on January 17, 2005. Hunter was enjoined from future violations of Section 17(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 thereunder. The Court ordered disgorgement and prejudgment interest against Hunter in the amount of $1,120,576, but waived payment of all but $100,000 due to Hunter's demonstrated inability to pay, and did not impose a civil penalty. Hunter consented to the entry of the judgment against him without admitting or denying any of the allegations of the Commission's Complaint. The Commission's Complaint alleged that defendants Hunter, Southern Financial Group, Inc., Richard M. Wooten and Charles Dennis McKittrick raised at least $25 million through a fraudulent scheme involving the sale of short-term notes on behalf of UC Properties LLC. The Complaint alleged that defendants operated these note offerings as a Ponzi scheme, using funds raised from current note offerings to pay principal and interest to investors in prior offerings, and that at least $5 million was transferred to relief defendant Springdale Investments, Inc. The Complaint further alleged that Southern operated in violation of the net capital rule since at least October 2001, and that the firm's FOCUS reports and other books and records have been inaccurate since that time.
