SEC OBTAINS PERMANENT INJUNCTIONS AND OTHER RELIEF AGAINST PARTICIPANTS IN A
FRAUDULENT STOCK OFFERING
On March 1, the Honorable Jose Martinez, U.S. District Judge for the
Southern District of Florida filed a Final Judgment by Default against
defendants Opsis Technologies International, Inc. (Opsis), M&T
Consulting Group LLC (M&T), Joseph Catapano and Aaron Andrzejewski
(a.k.a. Aaron Andrews)(Andrews).
The Courts judgment enjoined those defendants from further violations
of Sections 5 and 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. In addition, the Court ordered them to pay
disgorgement plus prejudgment interest in the total amount of
$4,733,909, for which they are jointly and severally liable. The Court
also imposed civil penalties of $550,000 each against Opsis and M&T and
$110,000 each against Catapano and Andrews. The judgment also
permanently enjoined M&T, Catapano, and Andrews from violating Section
15(a) of the Exchange Act and barred them from participating in an
offering of penny stock.
On March 2, Judge Martinez filed partial final consent judgments against
the two remaining defendants, Venture Capital Holdings LLC (VCH) and
Michael Kordich. VCH and Kordich consented, without admitting or
denying the allegations of the complaint, to permanent injunctions
against violating Sections 5 and 17(a) of the Securities Act and
Sections 10(b) and 15(a) of the Exchange Act and a penny stock bar. The
judgment also provides that the amounts, if any, of disgorgement,
prejudgment interest and civil penalties to be paid by Kordich and VCH
shall be determined by the Court at a later date. For additional
information, see Litigation Release 18518 (Dec. 22, 2003). [SEC v.
Opsis Technologies Intl., Inc., et al., 03-62251-Civ.-Martinez/Klein
(S.D. Fla.)] (LR-19140)

Greetings Mr. Ludwig.

My name is Benjamin York. I am the Vice President of Venture Capital Holdings Inc. >

I would like you and other readers of the forum to know that the information you have posted in regards to our firm is incorrect / inaccurate, and anyone referring to this post should note that the dates of the complaint (your link = http://www.sec.gov/news/digest/dig031705.txt ) site a case from 2005 and another entity called Venture Capital Holdings, LLC.

(See the difference?)

Venture Capital Holdings, Inc vs. Venture Capital Holdings, LLC.

Our firm was created in 2007 as you can clearly see on your 4th posting in this thread.

I would like to state for the record that our firm has NO PENDING OR PRIOR litigation against us and in fact have nothing to do with the case sited above in your first post. We have a spotless reputation and we would like to keep it that way.

If anyone should have any questions, please feel free to ask me personally anytime. Ben.york@venturecapitalholdings.org

very good, I pointed out that it may be a different company, that I was not sure, just surprised of the similar name , I really appreciate you posting the message, the cancellation of the company and then relisting again is a bit surprising, since you are here it would be nice if you would enlighten us about Native Peoples Bank. Since this is a forum mostly interested in banking it is always nice to have a first hand report.
