SEC Suspends Andalusian Resorts By: Brenda Hamilton Attorney
On May 19, 2014, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) announced the temporary suspension, pursuant to Section 12(k) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”), of trading in the securities of Andalusian Resorts and Spas, Inc. (“ARSP”) commencing at 9:30 a.m. EDT, on May 19, 2014, and terminating at 11:59 p.m. EDT, on June 2, 2014.
The SEC announced the trading suspension of the securities of ARSP because of questions concerning the adequacy and accuracy of assertions by ARSP, and by others, in press releases and other public statements to investors concerning, among other things, the company’s business combinations.
The SEC cautioned brokers, dealers, shareholders, and prospective purchasers that they should carefully consider the foregoing information along with all other currently available information and any information subsequently issued by the company.
Brokers and dealers should be alert to the fact that, pursuant to Rule 15c2-11 under the Exchange Act, at the termination of the trading suspensions, no quotation may be entered unless and until they have strictly complied with all of the provisions of the rule. If any broker or dealer has any questions as to whether or not he has complied with the rule, he should not enter any quotation but immediately contact the staff in the Division of Trading and Markets, Office of Interpretation and Guidance, at (202) 551-5777. If any broker or dealer is uncertain as to what is required by Rule 15c2-11, he should refrain from entering quotations relating to ARSP’s securities until such time as he has familiarized himself with the rule and is certain that all of its provisions have been met.
