Good Vibrations Shoes Inc (GVSI)

[Hi_Lo]

Nope, that's categorically WRONG on many levels. The fake news is hilarious

The lack of understanding FINRA Rule 6490 is what's hilarious.

Not only is GVSI in violation of FINRA Rule 6490, it is also SEC delinquent in its audited financial filings from 2008 - 2013, and it withdrew its SEC registration statement and never refiled it.

HOW FINRA RULE 6490 lMPACTS REVERSE MERGERS

Anybody involved or thinking about getting involved with GVSI should read about FINRA Rule 6490 CAREFULLY.

Not only is GVSI SEC delinquent in its reporting and in violation of FINRA Rule 6490, GVSI is also not SEC registered and non SEC reporting because it withdrew its SEC registration.

HOW FINRA RULE 6490 lMPACTS REVERSE MERGERS

https://www.hg.org/legal-articles/how-finra-rule-6490-lmpacts-reverse-mergers-30567

FINRA Rule 6490, has evolved since it was enacted over two years ago. For some time, FINRA has required that issuers provide expansive disclosures and supporting documentation not only for the corporate change subject to the notice but for the company’s entire corporate history from inception.

These disclosures are required of both SEC reporting and non-reporting issuers if they undertake corporate actions including reverse mergers. Compliance with Rule 6490's requirements is a minor task for companies going public by filing a registration statement with the SEC. Companies filing registration statements rarely have difficulties obtaining DTC eligibility unlike reverse merger issuers.

(My note: GVSI withdrew its registration statement and never refiled it: https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1068618/000149315221029704/formrw.htm)

The public filings of companies who register with the SEC contain most of the supporting documentation required by Rule 6490.

It is no surprise that compliance with the requirements of Rule 6490 is less burdensome for companies going public using a registration statement because these companies have fewer corporate changes in their company history than companies engaging in reverse mergers. This is especially true for reverse merger issuers who undergo multiple changes of control and periods of inactivity.

The Problem with Reverse Mergers & Disclosure under Rule 6490

For companies that engage in reverse mergers as part of their going public transaction, compliance with Rule 6490's requirements can be impossible particularly when custodianship or receivership actions have been used by shell brokers to create public shells after years of inactivity. These companies may have multiple corporate actions related to prior changes of control and often have sketchy corporate histories. Some have even been hijacked through custodianship or receivership actions. In these circumstances, documents may be unavailable or if provided to FINRA, it could potentially result in FINRA referring the matter to the SEC’s Division of Enforcement.

These companies are almost always plagued with incomplete or fraudulent corporate records which make it extremely difficult for the post-reverse merger company to comply with FINRA Rule 6490. As a result, these companies may never get FINRA approval of the contemplated corporate action.

Rule 6490 Disclosures

Issuers must provide a cover letter disclosing the full corporate history for the issuer itemizing all material facts including every corporate change that has occurred from inception to present day.

Triggers for Review under FINRA RULE 6490

A FINRA review will be triggered if any of the five factors set forth in Rule 6490 are thought to be present:

• FINRA believes the forms are incomplete, inaccurate or filed without the appropriate corporate authority;

• The issuer is not current in its reporting obligations with the Securities and Exchange Commission;

• Persons related to the corporate action are likely involved in fraudulent activities involving securities or may pose a threat to investors;

Any company contemplating going public using a reverse merger must consider the potential impact Rule 6490 could have on its future corporate actions. Rule 6490 provides one more compelling reason why private companies seeking to go public should do so using a registration statement instead of a reverse merger.

The SEC placed the restriction on corporate actions on GVSI because of GVSI delinquency in not filing audited financials for the years 2008 - 2013. An order which still stands.

FINRA initially declined to process the Company's Corporate Actions on June 21, 2019 by delivering a Notice of Deficiency Pursuant to FINRA Rule 6490

Sharp has already stated that he was unable to get the financials audited.

I had hope to start $GVSI as an SEC reporter, but after over a year of having two accounting firms work on it & discussions with the SEC, I begrudgingly agreed that I would not be able to get the books audited. https://t.co/tOP9FImksT

Our attorneys & auditors have concluded that it is impossible to audit $GVSI due to past corporate mismanagement of records/actions. Therefore, we are abandoning efforts to become an SEC reporter & are preparing an application for OTCIQ access to be filed with OTCM within 60 days

FINRA also acknowledges that the denial is based solely on failure to file periodic reports from 2008 to 2013 prior to filing a Form 15

https://www.sec.gov/litigation/apdocuments/3-19407-event-2020-05-12-brief-in-support-of-application-for-review.pdf

The DOP made no finding that the documentation GVSI submitted was in any way deficient. See Certified Record Tab 18 FINRA Deficiency Notice dated June 25, 2019. Yet on June 25, 2019, DOP refused GVSI’s application by providing GVSI with a deficiency notice. (Id.) In refusing to grant GVSI’s application, DOP stated its denial was based on a finding that GVSI had not completed certain periodic filings prior to filing its Form 15 on July 10, 2013 (six years ago).

The plethora of partial name changes by previous management and its inept counsel didn't help $GVSI either and all that had to be unwound and mapped out. https://t.co/xk3RKcKZ8d

— George Sharp - Advocate for truth in the OTC (@GeorgeASharp) February 7, 2023

Obviously it was not "unwound and mapped out" well enough to get GVSI registered with the SEC.

What makes Sharp supporters think the SEC will approve the change in corporate actions next time especially since the delinquent financials are still missing and GVSI is not SEC registered because it withdrew its SEC registration.

And Sharp said he abandoned getting GVSI registered and reporting with the SEC.

Sharp supporters also falsely insinuate that all that is needed is for GVSI to withdraw the FINRA appeal to lift the SEC restriction on corporate actions but the truth is only the SEC has the authority to lift the restriction and they are asking for six years of delinquent audited financials from GVSI. Sharp has already said he ABANDONED auditing GVSI's financials. And Sharp has never addressed the SEC/FINRA restriction on GVSI's corporate actions or mentioned it in any tweet, disclosure or financial statement.
