-------------------- BEGINNING OF PAGE #1 ------------------- UNITED STATES SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION Litigation Release No. 14697 / October 24, 1995 SEC v. Bradley S. Hill, (U.S.D.C. N.D. Illinois, Civil Action No. 95C5240, filed September 13, 1995) The Securities and Exchange Commission ("Commission") announced that on September 28, 1995, the Honorable Charles R. Norgle, U.S. District Judge for the Northern District of Illinois, entered a Final Judgment and Order of Permanent Injunction ("Order") against Bradley S. Hill ("Hill") of Chicago, Illinois, which enjoins Hill from further violations of Section 17(a) of the Securities Act of 1933. Hill misrepresented his association with Lloyd's of London ("Lloyd's") in the offer of securities. Hill consented to the entry of the Order against him without admitting or denying the allegations contained in the Complaint. No civil penalties were imposed based upon Hill's demonstrated inability to pay. The Complaint alleges that from August 1994 to October 1994, Hill made material misrepresentations while soliciting approximately 3569 publicly traded companies in the United States to purchase unregistered preferred stock and debentures of Formula Management Services, Inc. ("FMS"). Hill solicited the companies by facsimiles, which included a cover letter printed on letterhead with the Lloyd's name at the top. Hill was not employed, associated with or otherwise entitled to use the Lloyd's name in the letterhead. The Complaint also alleges that representatives from fifty companies contacted Hill in response to his solicitations regarding the sale of FMS securities. The Complaint further alleges that recipients who called in response to the solicitation assumed some relationship with Lloyd's and that Hill referred twenty-two of those representatives to his two Canadian contacts for FMS.
