==========================================START OF PAGE 1====== SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION LITIGATION RELEASE NO. 14937 / JUNE 6, 1996 SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION V. DANIEL L. OSBORN Civil Action No. CV 95-1014 RJK (C.D. Cal.) The Securities and Exchange Commission ("Commission") announced that on May 22, 1996, the Honorable Robert J. Kelleher entered a Final Judgment of Permanent Injunction And Other Relief Against Daniel L. Osborn. The Commission's Complaint alleged that in 1989 and 1990, Osborn participated in a fraudulent scheme with Steven D. Wymer ("Wymer") and the investment advisers controlled by Wymer, Denman & Co. and Institutional Treasury Management, Inc. (collectively "ITM"). The Commission alleged in its Complaint that Osborn, through his broker-dealer, DLO Securities, Inc. ("DLO"), charged ITM advisory clients and ITM fraudulent excessive, undisclosed markups on United States government securities. Osborn paid Wymer a portion of the fraudulent profits from these transactions. The Commission also alleged that Osborn failed to disclose $310,000 received from Wymer to establish DLO, formerly located in Irvine, California, on DLO's Form BD. The judgment against Osborn ordered him to disgorge $403,888 plus prejudgment interest and waived payment based on his demonstrated inability to pay the disgorgement.
