DiMarco stating that each companys board of directors had voted to sue $4 million

acquisition of television advertising time which would provide the necessary assets for

misleading because China Food and its president James Tilton and Trans-Global and its

director Jacques Verhaak did not obtained basic information to verifj that the television

assets existed or that the assets were worth the stated amount prior to issuing the press

releases The Commission also alleged that on May 17 and June 1999 China Food

on the first property was null and void because Trans-Global was unable to obtain

guaranteed price for stock it was exchangir.g for the property and Trans-Global failed to

obtain written agreement to acquire the second property The defendants also

overstated the acquisition price of the Sun Raye River Estates as $3 million when the

contract price was less than $1 million and overstated the acquisition price of Murphy

Island as $6 million when there was no written agreement to purchase the property The

Commission alleged that Trans-Global and Verhaak knew these press releases were false

or were reckless in issuing the press releases
