Satellite,


lack of latest financials (yes, pinks are required to submit financials

Satellite, the above statement is incorrect. I am not trying to be picky but rather clarify for you because that statement would surely bring you grief in future postings, here and elsewhere.


There are 3 categories of stocks that can and do trade on the pink sheet platform. ACTC falls under #2 below.

1)True pink sheet: These are stocks that have supplied very limited info on their company and found one market maker to quote their stock per pink sheet rules.

These stocks have never registered shares under SECTION 12 with the SEC and therefore are not required to file any SEC reports.

2)Non-Compliant Reporting Companies: These are companies that have registered shares under Section 12 with the SEC(example: our SB-2 filings) and are obligated to file reports. They have been removed from whatever exchange they were on because those exchanges require a company to be current with filings, therefore they trade on pinks. These companies are NOT relieved of their obligation to report to the SEC.

3)Same as above but they filed a Form 15 which exempts them from having to report to the SEC. They now are the same as #1, a true pink. These were SEC reporting companies that met the exemption criteria and decided they no longer wanted to report or sell stock to the public.
