Mr. Rosamilia served as an officer with three predecessor banks of JPMorgan Chase & Co. for 13 of his 15-year commercial and investment banking career there. He set up, re-engineered and managed profitable business units for the banks in Osaka, Tokyo, London and New York. He established a branch in Osaka that attained a first-year operating profit, two years ahead of plan. Mr. Rosamilia has 15 years of corporate finance, business development and corporate relationship management experience. In addition, he is credit trained, has worked on the foreign exchange desk in Tokyo, has experience in letters of credit and trade finance, and has traveled throughout China, Hong Kong, Singapore and Taiwan. Mr. Rosamilia left the bank to found and manage a private, corporate financial and business advisory firm specializing in early-stage growth companies with cross-border interests in Asia.
Mr. Rosamilia set up and managed a handful of companies since leaving the bank, including a private distributor of a multi-product retail line of bottled products from the US to Asia that attained an operating profit in its first year. As CEO, Mr. Rosamilia set up and managed all vendor relations as well as the production process, including product design, bottler operations, providers of caps, bottles and labels, and logistics and transportation. He was also responsible for all back-office and compliance functions including accounting, legal, finance and foreign exchange. Mr. Rosamilia served as the CFO, Treasurer and Secretary of RunTime Technologies, a successful Internet technology developer based in NY.

Here's an example of a company filing a 211

Gentlemen,
Our firm has been obtained to assist you in obtaining a solicited status 15c211 and also to
provide legal advice and assistance to you to ensure that all applicable regulatory and statutory
procedures are complied with as your company seeks to obtain a full solicitation status on a US
Exchange through filing a “Rule 211” Form with FINRA.
To accomplish this objective, of course, the procedure involves obtaining representation from a
registered “Market Maker” to become involved in the process which requires submitting
extensive information about your company with FINRA, which will then, after reviewing the
application, will grant full trading status for your company with an unlimited number of Market
Makers.
Unfortunately, several factors, including stiffer regulatory oversight from U.S. Governmental
and quasi-governmental agencies, has, especially since the first of this year, led to a shift in the
industry standard for Market Makers operating in the market today filing Forms 211.
Because of stiffer regulatory oversight, Market Makers have become increasingly concerned
about protecting themselves against potential legal liability for errors contained within Rule 211
Forms which they file with FINRA. Accordingly they are self-imposing higher standards from
companies seeking to obtain a ticker symbol or full trading status due to the difficulty in
verifying accuracy short of audited financials.
This in fact has constituted a growing shift in the industry standard for all 15c211 applicants,
whereby Market Makers are now requiring audited financials across the board, except, perhaps,
in rare instances on a case-by-case bases involving U.S. companies well-known to the Market
Maker with a solid and well-known business history. Cases of 211 applications proceeding
without audited financials, however, are increasingly becoming the rare exception to the new
rule, in which Market Makers are requiring audited financials.
2
So Gentlemen we recommend, not only for expediency in getting the 211 approved, but for the
company’s own protection as well, in our continued efforts to initiate or resume a full trading
status on the Pink Sheet or OTCBB Markets through filing a “Rule 211” with FINRA, that the
company complete and submit its audited financial information for the previous 2 year period of
operations. For non-US Companies, two years of audited (IFRS) (GAP) financials is highly
recommended or seek a current audited private company for merger.
Thank you for your consideration in this matter. Please do not hesitate to contact me should you
have any questions.
This opinion is solely for the use of the Company and its Board of Directors, and may not be
published or provided to any other person or entity without written permission from the
undersigned.
Very truly yours,
Donald M. Brown, Jr.
I hope you hold some long term in case good news comes out
I urge everyone here to put in a complaint to the SEC and get AURUS suspended.....They said they were going to file financials a long time ago. If they get suspended ,which I think probably isn't far off, they will have no choice but to file a 15c-211 and now they are required to file 2 years of financials before MM's will do a 211.
looks like we are going to be on the grey sheets for awhile they just tightened the standards for a 15c-211 now looks like market makers are imposing tighter restrictions ie 2 years of audited financials.Heres an examlpe of a company trying to get a 15c211 filed
