==========================================START OF PAGE 1====== UNITED STATES SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION Litigation Release No. 14934 / June 6, 1996 SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION v. MICHAEL CUNNINGHAM, KEVIN P. CHAPMAN, ARTHUR TAYLOR and ROBERT URBINE (CIV94-2001 PHX EHC) The Securities and Exchange Commission ("Commission") announced that on March 11, 1996, the United States District Court for the District of Arizona (the "Court") entered a Final Judgment of Permanent Injunction, Civil Penalties and Other Relief by Default Against Defendant Kevin P. Chapman ("Chapman"). On the same day, the Court made final a January 26, 1995 Order of Permanent Injunction Against Defendant Robert Urbine ("Urbine"), to which Urbine had previously consented, based upon the resolution of all remaining claims in the action. Chapman had, from January 1991 through April 1992, been a Director and/or Chairman of the Board of Pantheon Industries, Inc. ("Pantheon"). Urbine had been a director of Pantheon from November 1991 through mid-July 1992, and also President and Director of a purported subsidiary of Pantheon. The Complaint for Permanent Injunction and Civil Penalties, which the Commission filed on September 29, 1994, charged Chapman and Urbine with violations of Sections 10(b), 13(a) and 13(b)(2) and Rules 10b-5, 12b-20, 13a-1, 13a-13 and 13b2-1 thereunder. In the Complaint the Commission alleged that for fiscal year 1991, and for the first quarter of fiscal year 1992, Pantheon reported as assets forged banknotes with a principal value $40 million. According to the Complaint, among other things, (a) Chapman had evidence at the time that the bank notes were forgeries, and (b) Urbine knew that $10 million of the bank notes was owned by a company which Urbine falsely represented was a subsidiary of Pantheon.
