An exception to Rule 15c2-11 exists for Unsolicited Customer Orders. To avail itself of this exception, an NASD member firm must ensure that the quotation published or submitted: (1) is solely on behalf of a customer; (2) represents the customer's indication of interest; and (3) does not involve the solicitation of the customer's interest.
A broker and/or dealer is not a customer for the purposes of this rule. If a NASD member does publish a quotation on behalf of another dealer, including a non-NASD member dealer, the order must represent an unsolicited customer order. To demonstrate compliance with this exception, an NASD member publishing or submitting for publication a quotation representing an unsolicited customer order will be required to produce documentation to the NASD demonstrating its knowledge that the underlying order was unsolicited and entered on behalf of a customer. A NASD member may seek to comply with this exception by obtaining the name of the individual at the other dealer that informed it that the order was an unsolicited customer order and the date and time of such conversation. Both the NASD member and the other dealer are required, pursuant to NASD and SEC rules, to create and maintain a memorandum of such customer order regardless of whether the order is ultimately executed.
Pink Sheets generally will publish unsolicited quotations in securities that meet one of the following six conditions: The Issuer of the securities is subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and current in its filing obligations. The securities were delisted from NYSE, AMEX, NASDAQ or the OTCBB. The Issuer is a bank, savings and loan, or insurance company. The securities were issued as part of a bankruptcy plan of reorganization. The security being quoted is a foreign ordinary, which is listed on a foreign exchange, or an ADR representing such ordinaries. The Issuer is not subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. However, adequate current information concerning the Issuer is publicly available via the Pink Sheets News Service and the Issuer's transfer agent is registered under the Exchange Act. This information must be less than 90 days old and include, at a minimum, the following basic information regarding the issuer specified in paragraphs (a)(5)(i) to (xiii), inclusive, and paragraph (a)(5)(xvi) of Rule 15c2-11 under the Exchange Act or, if the issuer is an insurance company, the information specified in Section 12(g)(2)(G)(i) of the Exchange Act. Pink Sheets has created a Guideline for Providing Adequate Current Information Pursuant to Rule 15c2-11 (pdf) to help OTC issuers and brokers in understanding what information is required to be provided.
Steps to submit an unsolicited quote to Pink Sheets
If the security is already quoted on the Pink Sheets, subscribers may enter an unsolicited quote through the Dealer. If the security is new to the Pink Sheets, the following process applies:
Federal securities laws require an issuer making a public offering of securities to file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission containing certain disclosures regarding the issuer and its securities. Pink Sheets has become increasingly concerned that the unsolicited quote exception in Exchange Act Rule 15c2-11 is being abused by unscrupulous individuals to engage in questionable and possibly fraudulent activities in violation of the federal securities laws. Thus, Pink Sheets requires a broker/dealer to submit an Unsolicited Quote Entry Form (pdf) prior to publishing an unsolicited quote in a security that is not already quoted on the Pink Sheets. On the form, the broker must indicate which of the six conditions listed above that the security they wish to quote meets, and if it is condition #6, they must affirm that adequate current information about the issuer is available on the Pink Sheets News Service. If the broker is entering a quote for an Issuer that meets conditions 1-5 above, then no further action is required. Pink Sheets will authorize the broker to publish the unsolicited quote. If the broker is entering a quote for an issuer that meets condition #6 above, then the issuer must first make the required information available on the Pink Sheets News Service. To do this, the issuer must subscribe to the News Service by completing and returning the Issuer Services Subscription Form (pdf). Pink Sheets will then provide the issuer with access to a secure web portal to post the required information on pinksheets.com. Pink Sheets will not accept an unsolicited quote under condition #6 above if the issuer's Transfer Agent is not registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). You can request a list of SEC registered transfer agents by email at info@pinksheets.com. Pink Sheets' Guidelines for Providing Adequate Current Information Pursuant to Rule 15c2-11.(PDF) Once the broker has determined that adequate current information is publicly available on the Pink Sheets News Service, then the broker can submit the Unsolicited Quote Entry Form and Pink Sheets will authorize the broker to submit a quote in the Issuer's security.
For additional information on the Pink Sheets' policy regarding the publication of unsolicited quotes, and for further information on why Pink Sheets created a Guideline for Providing Adequate Current Information Pursuant to Rule 15c2-11, please read the Letter to Broker/Dealers announcing the new policy and the reasons for creating it.

Good to see you Babe! You haven't been around for awhile. I bought into this in July before Mario became creative with his overall business plan. I'm not sure why I held it while others fled. But Mario did pay out the dividend shares of WLSC & I averaged down. It looks like this may payoff very well. What the new people here have jumped into is the beginings of one serious PR campaign.
Are you still in QBID? That thing will only get better as time passes. Both of these stocks should be alot of fun. The New Year historically is a great time to be in Small Caps.

Good DD Whiz. I didn't think I would get a chance to flip this, but I did today. I sold off my entire position at .0018 and bought back in at .0011. One advantage about MLON that we have over the MM's is that Mario pays the pink sheets so that everyone can have free access to L2 on MLON. Unfortunatly, I'm sure not everyone is taking advantage of the free L2 ( www.pinksheets.com ) This probably pisses off the MM's because they know we can see what they are up to. It also makes it easier to daytrade and flip this by seeing where the support and resistance is building up. Anyways, thanks again Whiz for that post, that should help out some people that are doubting the validity of Mario's statements about the offers for MLON. Everyone should also keep in mind that Wall Street Securities (WLSC) is the real company run by Mario. That is his bread and butter. Even if he sells off MLON, he still has WLSC. The best times with this company are still to come, especially when the PR about the new contract comes out, which I expect will be sometime tomorrow (In my opinion). My reason for thinking tomorrow is because I know that he had that presentation in NY tonight, which would leave me to believe that some news should come out tomorrow.

You welcome K-man! Now check this out,,, ....................................................................
By: abadgoodgirl 09 Dec 2004, 12:34 AM EST Msg. 6982 of 7013 Jump to msg. # Thought I'd share some interesting research.
I noticed the MMs we have on MLON. We have the usual crooks like SCHB, NITE, TDCM, GVRC, JEFF, BAMM who are on every pinky or OTC stock.
We usually get excited when an SBSH or BEST shows up because they don't usually make a market in pinkie scams.
So I focused on the two MMs on MLON that we don't normally see here in the pinks or OTC stocks.
The two most intriquing MMs are BGTN, Brockington Securities and VNDM, Vandham Securities.
What I noticed about the Vice President of BGTN is that he is a vice president in OTC solutions [http://www.otc-solutions.com/references.html ] which from what I could tell helps companies. BGTN is the one who filed the 15c-211 for 21st Centuries Holding Corp way back when and which trades at $20/share or so. BGTN doesn't make a market here but did file their 15c-211.
I didn't see BGTN making a market in any other pinks that I checked or OTC stocks either. Also, BGTN has been a friendly and mostly buys and doesn't sit on the ASK so much.
Now, the interesting thing I found out about Vandham [VNDM] was that first their website is down or something. I looked in cached links and I noticed that they specialize in NASDAQ 100 stocks [QQQ] and they also introduce small companies to institutional investors via their roundtable services.
I checked QBID, CMKX, NEOM, CMKX, MSTIF, IBZT, among others and did not find VNDM making a market. I then checked Nasdaq 100 stocks such as, BRCM [Broadcom], ADBE [Adobe], EBAY, AMGM, BEAS [BEA Systems] and AMAT [Applied Materials] to name a few. Vandham Securities VNDM does make a market in all of these NAS 100 stocks.
You can say well so does SCHB, NITE, [the usual crooks]; but it's definitely not the other way around. You do not see MLCO on the pinks too often if ever.
Now when I spoke with MLON CEO, he said clients of his and those who know about MLON took positions in MLON and that is why the price probably spiked so high.
So if VNDM [Vandham] introduces small companies to big institutions, maybe some of those institutions or clients were buying MLON from VNDM. This would make sense.
Just thought I'd share some interesting research. VNDM doesn't seem like it would be an MM in a scam company when you see that they specialize in the QQQs. Perhaps VNDM is selling to their investors who are taking a position in MLON.
Just a different angle of research ..............................................................

What's the deal with the "kidder-peabody" thing?
Mellon Research is announcing our interest in securing the Kidder, Peabody name from UBS/Paine Webber with a consortium of former Kidder, Peabody employees and money management firms. http://biz.yahoo.com/pz/041207/69043.html
From his resume: Vice President, Investments Western Division 1993 - 1999
Paine Webber/ Kidder, Peabody & Co.
Ÿ Key role in driving 400% revenue growth; secured $1+ billion in assets, adding $20+ million to the bottom line.
Ÿ Mergers and acquisitions expert, especially workplace recovery after mergers, acquisitions and downsizings.
Ÿ Assisted in IPOs; worked with institutions and investment bankers. Added $200 million revenue and $30 million in fees.
Any word on who these clients are?: ``We are pleased to announce that Randy has in fact closed three deals recently, with a projected income of $250K, which should be accrued by the end of Q-1 in 2005. These are quality clients and all are public via the NASDAQ and have growing businesses in diverse market segments.'' http://biz.yahoo.com/pz/041119/68077.html
And what is this all about? Mellon Research will begin a relationship with Extreme Entertainment effective immediately to start filming and coordinate on-air activities with MTV by January 2005. http://biz.yahoo.com/bw/041117/175664_1.html
and from that same release :We are excited to begin the expansion of Mellon Research to broaden its horizons now that revenue has been received, and we have acquired a marginable long term asset of $140,000,000 providing our firm a potential cash infusion of $10,000,000
what is the $140MM asset they refer to??
So is there ANOTHER dividend in the works here? ``We intend to announce some type of a special stock dividend for our existing stockholders as a bonus and to thank them for their ongoing support of our companies. This will be solidified within the next 4-8 weeks and we will issue a special press release to announce this - please stay tuned for further announcements as we move forward across all fronts next month, as we will have some exciting news!'' http://biz.yahoo.com/pz/041124/68314.html

Is anyone seeing any guidance on L2 this morning? Same MMs it looks like but different numbers for the VNDM MM.

Mario usually issues his PR's in the afternoon. I am thinking the news will come out during or after lunch, but that is just my opinion based on when he has issued PR's in the past.

Very possibly you are correct. But there's one phenomenon you overlooked.
It's the floating turd factor.
Seems like everytime I do serious DD & buy a stock that has everything going for it just tanks on general principal or never lives up to it's potential. As we hold these gems we can't help but notice that TURD.PK just took off on a really weak PR that does not have any appearent connection to TURD's business plan. We can only wonder who the hell bought that schitt & why. Also wish we had seen the potential worth of bullschitt as a genuine fertilizer value.
So to speed stuff up & get to the point we may have all accidently stumbled on to a goldmine.
Allow me to add that at this point, like my friend Mario, I too have readjusted my fair-value assessment of this company & have raised my GTC offer to sell from .05 to .10!

Ok. Here's another question for you Whiz. I saw your post last night but still couldn't figure out the answer. Can Mario get in trouble for saying he had offers to buy MLON for .05? In other words, can we assume those offers were legit? Also, anyone know what our fee is for providing financing services to this company? Anyone have any real #'s??

Our fees aree steep! And that's because Mario is good. Yes he could get in big trouble if those bids are fabricated. It doesn't mean to me that anyone tet is seriously willing to buy MLON at .05! It means Mario is very good at making money without breaking the law.
