From the filing:

A third-party, Mario Pi no ("Pino") obtained a valid stock certificate of Bancorp,
took it to a professional reproduction facility, and prepared numerous blank "stock certificates"
of Bancorp (the "False Certificates") in the likeness of the valid stock certificate. Pino then,
individually and in conspiracy with others, embarked upon a scheme to distribute the False
Certificates by falsely endorsing upon each certificate: (i) a false certificate number; (ii) the
name of a false "registered holder" of the False Certificate; (iii) a false number of shares
represented by the False Certificate; (iv) a false CUSIP number; (v) the name of a contrived
transfer agent; and (vi) the signature of the President and Secretary of Bancorp.
