BCSC panel orders B.C. company to pay disgorgement
(firmenpresse) - VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (Marketwired) -- 01/27/17 -- A British Columbia Securities Commission (BCSC) panel has found that Havenplex Holdings Ltd. engaged in an illegal distribution and has ordered Havenplex to pay a disgorgement.
The panel found that in the fall of 2013, Havenplex received $55,000 from the sale of its promissory notes to two investors. In February 2014, one of the investors invested a further $50,000 in Havenplex through the company's president. Havenplex is a B.C. company that has never filed a prospectus under the Act.
The panel found that Havenplex relied on the private issuer exemption to distribute its securities. However, the two investors were not accredited and did not otherwise qualify for the purported exemption. During the hearing, Havenplex admitted liability.
In its decision, the panel stated "There is no dispute that the two investors have been harmed and have lost their subscription proceeds."
For its misconduct, Havenplex has been ordered to pay a disgorgement of $105,000 to the Commission.
