     SEC v. Nu-Life International of Georgia, Inc. and Gene Arthur
     (Civil Action No. 1:96-CV-2534-ODE, N.D. Ga.)

          The Securities and Exchange Commission announced today that on May 21,
     1997, the Honorable Orinda D. Evans, United States District Judge for the
     Northern District of Georgia, entered separate orders of permanent
     injunction and other relief against Nu-Life International of Georgia, Inc.
     ("Nu-Life") and Gene Arthur ("Arthur"), enjoining them from violating
     Section 17(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 10(b) of the
     Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 thereunder.  Arthur was
     ordered to pay civil penalties in the amount of $20,000 within 30 days of
     the date of the Order. The Court further ordered Nu-Life and Arthur to
     prepare sworn accountings of all monies received from the scheme and of the
     disposition and use of said funds.  The accountings are to be submitted to
     the Court within 30 days of the date of the Court's order.

          Nu-Life and Arthur consented to the relief without admitting or
     denying the allegations set forth in a complaint filed by the Commission on
     September 27, 1996.  The complaint alleged that the defendants raised at
     least $200,000 from approximately 100 investors in at least twelve states
     by selling securities in the form of investment contracts and approximately
     $662,500 in stock options.  The complaint further alleged that the
     defendants sold Nu-Life memberships at prices ranging from $494 to $12,500
     by misrepresenting or failing to disclose material facts in connection with
     the offer and sale of the securities.  For more information, see Litigation
