Westerkirk, the 15c2-11 is not filed by the Company. It is filed by a market maker after reviewing information provided by the company.

If audited financials are provided to a MM and made available to the public, investors are in a position to judge the value of the company's stock as investment. This is protecting the investor by providing information on which to make an informed decision.

I am sorry that you have put a lot of money into this stock. I hope that others reading this thread will learn the folly of putting money in non-reporting companies. Much better odds in the casinos.

... Does the company then have to fill out the 15c2-11 form to resume trading? ...

Though the Reuters and Dow Jones summaries of the trading suspension have been posted, I don't think that the SEC announcement itself has been posted. Here it is:

TEMPORARY SUSPENSION OF TRADING IN THE SECURITIES OF MOUNTAIN ENERGY,INC.

The Commission today ordered the temporary suspension, pursuant to
Section 12(k) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (Exchange Act),
of trading in the securities of Mountain Energy, Inc. (Mountain
Energy), beginning 9:30 a.m. EDT, on July 29, 1998, and concluding
11:59 p.m. EDT, on August 11, 1998.

The Commission ordered this trading suspension because of questions
raised as to the adequacy and accuracy of publicly disseminated
information concerning Mountain Energy. This information concerns,
among other things, Mountain Energy's ownership of certain
properties and the valuation of the mineral assets on those
properties. The Commission determined that the public interest and
the protection of investors requires a suspension of trading in
Mountain Energy securities.

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 it has complied with the rule, it 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, it should refrain from
entering quotations relating to the securities of Mountain Energy
until such time as it has familiarized itself 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.
