ENFORCEMENT PROCEEDINGS COMMISSION ORDERS HEARINGS ON REGISTRATION REVOCATION AGAINST SECURITIES OF FOUR DELINQUENT PINK SHEET COMPANIES FOR FAILURE TO MAKE REQUIRED PERIODIC FILINGS Commission Institutes Follow-Up Proceedings to Aug. 28, 2006, Trading Suspensions On November 27, the Commission instituted public administrative proceedings to determine whether to revoke or suspend the registration of each class of the securities of four companies for failure to make required periodic filings with the Commission. These proceedings represent follow-up action to the trading suspension orders issued by the Commission on Aug. 28, 2006, as to the securities of all four companies. In this matter, the Division of Enforcement alleges that Amanda Company, Inc., Com21, Inc., Eco Soil Systems, Inc., and Healthtrac, Inc., are delinquent in their required periodic filings with the Commission. The Division of Enforcement also alleges that the common stock of all of these issuers was quoted on the Pink Sheets as of Aug. 21, 2006. In these proceedings, instituted pursuant to Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (Exchange Act) Section 12(j), a hearing will be scheduled before an Administrative Law Judge. At the hearing, the judge will hear evidence from the Division and the respondents to determine whether the allegations of the Division contained in the Order, which the Division alleges constitute failures to comply with Exchange Act Section 13(a) and Rules 13a-1 and 13a-13 thereunder, are true. The judge in these proceedings will then determine whether the registrations pursuant to Exchange Act Section 12 of the securities of the respondents should be revoked, or in the alternative, suspended for a period not exceeding twelve months. The Commission ordered that the Administrative Law Judge in these proceedings issue an initial decision not later than 120 days from the date of service of the order instituting proceedings.
