A lot of people didn't understand the restriction. They thought that they could not buy. That's not the case. The restriction is that you need a broker to assist you and you will still get the internet price for trades. Thiswas verified with TD Ameritrade on Friday. I use Scottrade and there are NO restrictions with Scottrade.

this stock is being reaccumulated right now, it will go off again in the near future, and should go past the last big run that went to .0055
may be late august or september, but a great time to load up for the run thats coming
all penny trading logic tells you this was shorted by the anticipated reverse that never happened, took away interest, and knocked alot of folks off the wagon, time to get back aboard before the shorts recoup and news gets it running again, this should be a great fall play, and maybe much sooner.......
IMO

YOU GUYS WILL LIKE THIS ONE...
IPRE president James Hergott, in an email stated that these MM's (UBSS no doubt) are trying to extort them into going through with the reverse split that they cancelled a couple weeks ago before the online buying restrictions were implemented..
I suggested such a letter early on but I was overruled by Ken and others who stated that it could cause a panic because a great deal of shareholders who don't trade online have no idea about the restrictions. The concern is that even though we could state that the company did nothing wrong, the perception would be that maybe there is something wrong with the company and the uncertainty will cause a sell off. Our Angels (investors putting up millions of dollars for our movies rather than selling shares on the open market) are seasoned and experienced and advised Ken against this action. As you know, those who have the gold, make the rules.
We have received some information from a source that I can not disclose that in order to have the restrictions lifted, we would have to go through with the RS. This makes no sense to me because MUME and SEVERAL other stocks have restrictions and have nothing to do with an RS. So far we are getting a lot of mixed signals from Brokers, none of which make sense. It does appear as if the brokers took this action at the request of the MM's. If I find out anything more I will do my best to inform shareholders.
All the best,
James

But the date (August 2) seems to be wrong in the PR, or they released it 10 days later. At least I couldn't find this PR anywhere until now. And the website also states: Saturday, August 12, 2006. Also TFN (The Fight Network) has it just since saturday: http://www.thefightnetwork.com/news_detail.php?nid=2111
UFC Fighters To Be Featured In Imperia Entertainment’s Mixed Martial Arts Movie “Never Submit” and High Profile Executive Producer Announced
BEVERLY HILLS, Calif.-(SportsWire)—August 2, 2006/ Imperia Entertainment (Pink Sheets: IPRE) President James Hergott announced today that he has received permission to use fighters from Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) in the upcoming mixed martial arts movie entitled Never Submit. Hergott and Never Submit Producer Cindy Ortiz met with UFC President Dana White in his Las Vegas office on Friday July 21st, 2006 to discuss the project and use of UFC contract fighters in the movie.
Ortiz comments, “The meeting went well. Mr. White and Mr. Hergott share a lot of the same goals on how the sport of MMA should be depicted on the silver screen and ensuring an accurate portrayal was number one on both of their lists. I think Mr. White appreciated the fact Mr. Hergott himself has been a martial arts practitioner for nearly half of his life. Hergott’s passion for this sport was obvious to me from the moment I read his script (Never Submit). White was interested in helping the young director and I feel his generosity in allowing us to showcase UFC fighters in the movie will have a huge impact on the realism of the film.”
Hergott comments, “As a former Judo competitor, I have closely followed this sport and have been a fan of MMA since its North American introduction in 1993. Mixed martial arts is gaining true mainstream acceptance which in large part is due to the success of the UFC and the Spike TV hit reality show The Ultimate Fighter that recently completed filming its fourth season. Never Submit will appeal to the hardcore fans as well as expose movie goers to this emerging sport who may know very little, if anything, about MMA when they enter the theater. My goal is to turn as many of them into fans as possible by the closing credits.”
Hergott continues, “It is my intent as writer and director to portray the sport of MMA, the athletes competing in it and the fans supporting it in a positive light. MMA isn’t a barbaric underground blood sport like it has been depicted in the past by other filmmakers. It’s a very intellectual sport; a physical chess match between men. This movie will showcase the courage, integrity, commitment, athleticism and sportsmanship found in these modern day gladiators and I’m looking forward to telling their stories.”
According to Hergott, “Dana is a true visionary as well as a great business man who shares my dedication and passion for this sport. I have wanted to do a movie about MMA since before Zuffa even acquired the UFC, but I just wasn’t in a position to do so until now. I very much admire what he has been able to accomplish in this industry over the past few years and I recognize his success is a direct result of the fact he never stopped believing in this sport or his company.”
Hergott continues, “I’m looking forward to working with fighters from all three seasons of The Ultimate Fighter as well as those competing in the live UFC events. Never Submit will provide great exposure for these guys who want to experience what it’s like being on the silver screen. Quite a few fighters aspire to become actors and I appreciate the fact Dana has been proactive in making this opportunity available to fighters representing the UFC organization. He truly cares about who they are and what they want to accomplish in their lives and he could have just as easily said ‘no’ when approached about it.”
Ms. Ortiz comments, “Mixed martial arts is regulated and sanctioned by numerous state athletic commissions (20 so far in North America) because they recognize it to be a legitimate sport just like baseball, football and basketball. Professional fighters are just as much professional athletes as the elite performers found in other sports. I feel that Never Submit will be a movie with widespread appeal and the action is going to keep movie goers on the edge of their seats just like it does millions of spectators flocking to live MMA events every year around the globe.”
Ortiz continues, “The script doesn’t present MMA as the hobby it is for some, nor does it focus on amateur level competitors. Never Submit showcases the intensity of professional fighting and takes you inside the world of this very controversial sport, something James Hergott knows quite a bit about. It is a pleasure to be involved with this project because I think it’s going to succeed in helping fighters to gain the long overdue respect and recognition they deserve as well as help solidify MMA as a true sport in a mainstream environment.”

Imperia Entertainment To Feature UFC Fighters in MMA Movie ``Never Submit'' Monday August 14, 10:57 am ET
BEVERLY HILLS, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 14, 2006--Imperia Entertainment (Pink Sheets:IPRE - News) President James Hergott announced today that he has received permission to use fighters from the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) in the upcoming mixed martial arts movie entitled "Never Submit." ADVERTISEMENT
The organization in the movie "Never Submit" will be a fictitious organization and as such will not be utilizing the UFC brand in the film. It is undecided if the fighters will play themselves or fictitious characters in the film. "Never Submit" will star actors in the dialogue heavy roles. Imperia Entertainment will announce the actors and fighters for the film in future press releases.
Imperia Entertainment's agreement with the UFC is non-exclusive and therefore will have the right to approach fighters not under contract with the UFC as well.
Inquiries pertaining to fighters interested in becoming involved with this film, potential sponsorship opportunities available to companies/vendors and MMA media requests should be made via e-mail to Producer Cindy Ortiz at cindy*imperiaentertainment.com.
About "Never Submit"
"Never Submit" is a movie which portrays the thrill of victory and agony of defeat within the sport. The story is set in a tournament setting similar to the movie "Bloodsport" but rather than exploiting the sport as underground no-holds-barred fighting, it seeks to portray the sport in a realistic and positive light. The movie will be an inspirational tale similar to "Rocky." Unlike "Rocky," the lead character is an educated young man, rather than a beaten-down punch-drunk fighter. Mr. Hergott comments: "MMA is a very intellectual sport. A physical chess match. I want to portray the sport and its fighters as intelligent rather than dumb brawlers, as is often done in other movies."
Executive Producer Tarquin Gotch has joined the production team of "Never Submit." Tarquin Gotch served as Executive Producer of "Home Alone," the best-selling comedy film of all time, which made more than $534 million worldwide at the box office and another $140 million in DVD and VHS rentals. Gotch also ran the in house television films department of 20th Century Fox after producing several well-acclaimed comedies. His credits include "Curly Sue," "Planes, Trains and Automobiles," and "Ferris Bueller's Day Off."
The cinematographer for "Never Submit" is Peter Benison, CSC, whose work includes the opening sequence and visual effects to the 2006 Sony Pictures thriller "Silent Hill." Mr. Benison also credited with several sequences for the 2002 Miramax release "Chicago," which won 6 Academy Awards, including Best Sound, Best Editing, Best Costume, Best Supporting Role, Best Art Direction-Set Decoration and Best Picture. "Chicago" went on to make $170 million at the US Box Office. Mr. Benison has been nominated for numerous achievements and is an award recipient in cinematography and has received positive reviews from such publications as Variety, USA TODAY and The Hollywood Reporter. Company president, James Hergott, will direct the film.
