John White, Director of the Division of Corporation Finance, and
Conrad Hewitt, Chief Accountant, U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission, will testify before the Senate Committee on Banking,
Housing, and Urban Affairs' Subcommittee on Securities, Insurance, and
Investment on Wednesday, Oct. 24, 2007. Their testimony, which

ENFORCEMENT PROCEEDINGS
IN THE MATTER OF RAMP CORPORATION
On October 19, the Commission issued an Order Instituting
Administrative Proceedings Pursuant to Section 12(j) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 (Order) against Ramp Corporation (Ramp). In the
Order, the Division of Enforcement alleges that Ramp has failed to
comply with Section 13(a) of the Exchange Act and Rules 13a-1 and 13a-
13 thereunder, while its common stock was registered with the
Commission in that it has not filed an Annual Report on Form 10-K
since April 4, 2005 (for its year ending Dec. 31, 2004) or quarterly
reports on Form 10-Q for any fiscal period subsequent to its fiscal
quarter ending Sept. 30, 2004. A hearing will be scheduled before an
administrative law judge to determine whether the allegations
contained in the Order are true, to provide Ramp an opportunity to
establish any defenses, and to determine whether the registration of
each class of Ramp securities should be suspended for a period not
exceeding 12 months or revoked. The Commission directed that an
Administrative Law Judge shall issue an initial decision no later than
120 days from the date of service of the Order, pursuant to Rule
360(a)(2) of the Commission's Rules of Practice. (Rel. 34-56679; File
No. 3-12872)
COMMISSION ORDERS HEARINGS ON REGISTRATION SUSPENSION OR REVOCATION
AGAINST FOUR COMPANIES FOR FAILURE TO MAKE REQUIRED PERIODIC
FILINGS
On October 22, the Commission instituted public administrative
proceedings to determine whether to revoke or suspend for a period not
exceeding twelve months the registration of each class of the
securities of four companies for failure to make required periodic
filings with the Commission:
* Ameriserve Food Distribution, Inc.
* Appalachian Oil & Gas Company, Inc.
* Harvey's Great Things, Inc.
* Northport Industries, Inc. (PESO)
In this Order, the Division of Enforcement (Division) alleges that the
four issuers are delinquent in their required periodic filings with
the Commission.
In this proceeding, instituted pursuant to Exchange Act Section 12(j),
a hearing will be scheduled before an Administrative Law Judge. At the
hearing, the judge will hear evidence from the Division and the
respondents to determine whether the allegations of the Division
contained in the Order, which the Division alleges constitute failures
to comply with Exchange Act Section 13(a) and Rules 13a-1 and 13a-13
thereunder, are true. The judge in the proceeding will then determine
whether the registrations pursuant to Exchange Act Section 12 of the
securities of these respondents should be revoked, or in the
alternative, suspended for a period not exceeding twelve months. The
Commission ordered that the Administrative Law Judge in this
proceeding issue an initial decision not later than 120 days from the
date of service of the order instituting proceedings. (Rel. 34-56681;
File No. 3-12873)
COMMISSION CHARGES SHORT SELLERS AND CORPORATE INSIDERS IN MASSIVE
SCHEME TO CONCEAL THE SHORT SELLERS' CONTROL OVER RAMP CORPORATION AND
XYBERNAUT CORPORATION
On October 19, the Commission filed a civil action in the U.S.
District Court for the Eastern District of New York against: two short
sellers, Zev Saltsman and Menachem Eitan; two former officers and
directors of Xybernaut Corporation, Edward G. Newman and Steven A.
Newman; a former director of Xybernaut and outside counsel to
Xybernaut and Ramp Corporation, Martin E. Weisberg; and Ramp's former
CEO, Andrew Brown. The Commission's complaint charges the defendants
with engaging in a scheme to conceal Saltsman and Eitan's control over
Ramp and Xybernaut.
In particular, the Commission's complaint alleges that between 2001
and 2004, Saltsman and Eitan, through 34 nominees, invested more than
$88 million in private investments in public equity (PIPE)
transactions of Xybernaut and Ramp, companies that traded on the
NASDAQ Small Cap Market and the American Stock Exchange, respectively.
During that period, Xybernaut issued more than 123 million shares of
common stock to 21 nominees of Saltsman and Eitan in return for more
than $67 million in PIPE financing. Similarly, between December 2002
and November 2004, Ramp issued more than 161 million shares of common
stock to 13 nominees of Saltsman and Eitan in return for more than $21
million in PIPE financing. Xybernaut and Ramp filed 18 registration
statements registering the resale of those shares, and those
registration statements were misleading because, among other things,
they created the impression that the investors were independent from
one another and controlled by persons other than Saltsman and Eitan.
Saltsman and Eitan profited from the scheme by executing short sales
and covering those short positions with newly issued PIPE shares in
violation of the registration provisions of the federal securities
laws. Saltsman and Eitan often executed wash sales between their
various nominee accounts in order to disguise these violations of the
federal securities laws. As a result of their illegal conduct,
Saltsman and Eitan received a total of more than $55 million in
illicit profits by trading in Ramp and Xybernaut stock.
The complaint also alleges that Saltsman and Eitan paid officers and
directors of Ramp and Xybernaut to ensure access to future PIPE deals
and maintain control over the companies. In December 2003, Saltsman
and Eitan allegedly gave Brown $50,000 in cash. In 2003 and 2004,
Saltsman and Eitan paid $4.1 million to Steven Newman and Weisberg.
These payments, as well as the relationships that developed between
the companies' management and Saltsman and Eitan, were never disclosed
in Ramp or Xybernaut's corporate filings or registration statements.
The Commission's complaint further alleges that during the course of
the scheme, Brown, Weisberg, Edward Newman and Steven Newman provided
valuable assistance to Saltsman and Eitan. In 2001, Weisberg helped
Edward Newman and Steven Newman transfer a total of 1.1 million shares
of their own Xybernaut stock to Saltsman and Eitan to allow Saltsman
and Eitan to cover existing short positions in Xybernaut. In 2003,
Weisberg lied to the Commission staff about sales of securities to
Saltsman and Eitan that occurred during the pendency of a PIPE
registration statement. Brown, Weisberg, Edward Newman and Steve
Newman also concealed Saltsman and Eitan's control over the PIPE
investments and the nominees.
The complaint alleges that each of the defendants violated Section
17(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 (Securities Act) and Section 10(b)
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (Exchange Act) and Rule 10b-5
thereunder, and that Saltsman and Eitan also violated Sections 5(a),
5(b)(2), and 5(c) of the Securities Act and Sections 13(d) and 16(a)
of the Exchange Act and Rules 13d-1, 13d-2, and 16a-3 thereunder. The
complaint also alleges that Weisberg aided and abetted Xybernaut's
violations of Section 14(a) of the Exchange Act and Rule 14a-9
thereunder, and that Steven Newman, Edward Newman, and Brown violated
Exchange Act Rule 13a-14. The complaint further alleges that Weisberg,
Steven Newman, Edward Newman and Brown aided and abetted Xybernaut and
Ramp's violations of Section 13(a) of the Exchange Act and Rules 12b-
20, 13a-1, and 13a-13 thereunder. In its enforcement action, the
Commission is seeking an order permanently enjoining the defendants
from future violations of the foregoing provisions of the federal
securities laws, and a final judgment ordering disgorgement of ill-
gotten gains and civil penalties. The Commission also seeks officer
and director bars against Weisberg, Steven Newman, Edward Newman and
Brown. [SEC v. Zev Saltsman, et al., Civil Action No. 07-CV-4370 (NGG)
(E.D.N.Y.)] (LR-20341)
FORMER ARTHUR ANDERSEN AUDIT PARTNER FRED GOLD AGREES TO PERMANENT
ANTI-FRAUD INJUNCTION, $100,000 CIVIL PENALTY, AND SEC PRACTICE
SUSPENSION IN SETTLEMENT OF SEC LITIGATION RELATING TO AMERICAN TISSUE
AUDIT
The Commission announced today that Fred Gold, a former partner at
Arthur Andersen, LLP., agreed to settle the Commission's civil
injunctive action pending against him in the U.S. District Court for
the Eastern District of New York. Without admitting or denying the
allegations in the complaint, Gold consented to entry of a final
judgment entered by the Court on Oct. 16, 2007, that permanently
enjoins him from violating Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934 (Exchange Act) and Rule 10b-5 thereunder, and from aiding
and abetting violations of Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act and
Exchange Act Rules 12b-20 and 15d-1, and orders him to pay a civil
money penalty of $100,000. As part of the settlement, Gold consented,
without admitting or denying the Commission's findings, to the
issuance of an administrative order suspending him from appearing or
practicing before the Commission as an accountant pursuant to Rule
102(e)(3) of the Commission's Rules of Practice. [SEC v. Fred Gold, et
al., Civil Action No. 05 CV 4713, USDC, EDNY] (LR-20342; AAE Rel.
