IN THE MATTER OF ROBERT DIMARCO, JR.

On March 11, the Commission issued an Order Instituting Administrative
Proceedings Pursuant to Section 15((6) of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, Making Findings, and Imposing Remedial Sanctions (Order)
against Robert B. Dimarco, Jr. (DiMarco). The Order finds that on June
26, 2001, DiMarco pled guilty to one count of conspiracy to commit
securities, mail and wire fraud in violation of Tile 18 United States
Code, Section 371, before the U.S. District Court for the Middle
District of Florida, in U.S. v. DiMarco, Case No. 01-CR-166, arising out
of his association with The Hamilton Shea Group Inc., a broker-dealer
registered with the Commission.

The count of the criminal information to which DiMarco pled guilty
alleged that DiMarco: (1) used undisclosed nominee accounts to control
and manipulate the prices of securities, (2) filed false documents with
the Commission that concealed his part ownership of Hamilton Shea, and
(3) directed brokers to make false and misleading statements to the
public in connection with the sale of the securities.

On Nov. 1, 2002, DiMarco was sentenced to a term of five years probation
and was ordered to make restitution in the amount of $300,000.

Based on the above, the Order bars DiMarco from association with any
broker or dealer and from participation in any offering of a penny
stock. DiMarco consented to the issuance of the Order without admitting
or denying any of the allegations in the administrative proceeding.
