  55.  
  56. III.
  57.  
  58. On the basis of this Order and the Offers submitted by the
  59. Respondents, the Commission finds that:
  60.  
  61. A.RESPONDENTS
  62.  
  63. 1.Prime Advisors, Inc. ("PAI"), a Virginia corporation, is an
  64. investment adviser which has been registered with the Commission
  65. since April 1997 (File No. 801-54189). PAI serves as general
  66. partner to at least six private investment, i.e. hedge fund,
  67. limited partnerships (collectively, "the PAI partnerships").
  68. Since 1991, PAI has served as investment adviser to the PAI
  69. partnerships by providing investment advice and services in
  70. exchange for compensation. PAI is equally co-owned by Norman
  71. Zadeh and Jeffrey Goodstein, its sole officers and directors.
  72.  
  73. 2.Norman Zadeh ("Zadeh"), age 47, is an investment adviser who
  74. has been registered with the Commission since October 1989 (File
  75. No. 801-35475). Zadeh's business consists primarily of managing
  76. individual accounts. Zadeh, who resides in Beverly Hills,
  77. California, holds a Ph.D. in mathematics and is a co-owner of
  78. PAI. He is a registered representative associated with American
  79. Eastern Securities, Inc. and Wharton Equity Corporation
  80. ("Wharton"), both registered broker-dealers, and currently holds
  81. Series 3, 7, 63 and 65 licenses. From 1983 to at least 1994,
  82. Zadeh administered two nationwide investment contests, Money
  83. Manager Verified Ratings and U.S. Investing Championship.
  84.  
  85. 3.Jeffrey Goodstein ("Goodstein"), age 41, resides in Richmond,
  86. Virginia. Goodstein, an inactive member of the Virginia bar,
  87. previously owned two formerly registered investment advisers,

  89. and owns an active corporation, HF Administration, Inc.
  90. Goodstein, a co-owner of PAI, is a registered representative with
  91. Wharton, and currently holds Series 3, 7, 63 and 65 licenses.
  92.  
  93. [..snip..]
  94.  
  95. C.VIOLATIVE CONDUCT
  96.  
  97. 1.Securities and Investment Company
  98. Registration Violations: Sections 5(a) and
  99. 5(c) of the Securities Act and Section 7(a)
  100. of the Investment Company Act
  101.  
  102. During the relevant period, PAI served as general partner and
  103. investment adviser to the six PAI partnerships. Its owners,
  104. Zadeh and Goodstein, channelled advisory clients to PAI and the
  105. partnerships through their respective registered advisory firms,
  106. Norman Zadeh (owned by Zadeh), and Old Dominion Management Co.
  107. and Allied Capital Management, Inc. (both owned by Goodstein),
  108. and through a newsletter (described below). Most of Zadeh's
  109. clients were initially attracted by two investment ratings
  110. contests, which Zadeh sponsored and advertised in various
  111. financial publications. From approximately 1983 to 1992, the
  112. published results for the contests listed contestants and their
  113. ranking, along with a phone number. From approximately 1993 to
  114. 1994, a toll-free number was listed with the published results.
  115.  
  116. Upon being telephoned by persons and entities seeking information
  117. about the contests and their participants, Zadeh, on behalf of
  118. PAI, would solicit an investment in the PAI partnerships and
  119. record the callers' personal information on a mailing list that
  120. ultimately grew to approximately 11,000 names. Persons and
  121. entities on the mailing list were mailed a newsletter which,
  122. beginning in 1991, among other things, recommended an investment
  123. in the PAI partnerships. On occasion, Zadeh referred callers who
  124. wanted information regarding the PAI partnerships to Goodstein,
  125. who answered the callers' questions and mailed the appropriate
  126. prospectuses to interested callers.
  127.  
  128. Through these telephone and newsletter contacts, PAI, through
  129. Zadeh and Goodstein, generally solicited investors in the offer
  130. and sale of interests in the PAI partnerships. At the time of
  131. such solicitations, no registration statement had been filed or
  132. was in effect for the PAI partnership interests, which are
  133. securities in the form of investment contracts. No exemption
  134. from registration was available for such interests. Thus, PAI
  135. willfully violated Sections 5(a) and 5(c) of the Securities Act.
  136. Zadeh and Goodstein, as the owners of and primary actors on
  137. behalf of PAI, caused such violations through their general
  138. solicitation efforts. In addition, because Zadeh and Goodstein
  139. directly offered and sold unregistered securities, they willfully
  140. violated Sections 5(a) and 5(c) of the Securities Act.
  141.  
  142. None of the PAI partnerships was registered with the Commission
  143. as an investment company. The PAI partnerships (through their
  144. general partner, PAI, and through PAI's only directors, Zadeh and
  145. Goodstein) are issuers that have primarily engaged since 1991 in
  146. investing, reinvesting, or trading in securities, including
  147. equity securities and mutual fund shares. This conduct caused
  148. each PAI partnership to fall within the definition of investment
  149. company under Section 3(a)(1)(A). Because PAI, through Zadeh and
  150. Goodstein, publicly offered the partnerships' securities to
  151. investors, the PAI partnerships did not qualify for the exclusion
  152. under Section 3(c)(1) of the Investment Company Act. By offering
  153. and selling their interests without first having registered with
  154. the Commission as investment companies, the PAI partnerships
  155. willfully violated Section 7(a) of the Investment Company Act.
  156.  
  157. PAI, the partnerships' general partner, and Zadeh and Goodstein,
  158. PAI's sole officers and directors, ran the day-to-day operations
  159. of the PAI partnerships. Thus, they had actual knowledge that
  160. the PAI partnerships were engaged primarily in the business of
  161. investing and reinvesting in, and trading securities, but were
  162. not registered with the Commission as investment companies. By
  163. controlling and operating the PAI partnerships, which they knew
  164. were not registered with the Commission, PAI, Zadeh and Goodstein
  165. provided substantial assistance to the operation of six
  166. unregistered investment companies. Accordingly, PAI, Zadeh and
  167. Goodstein willfully aided and abetted and caused the PAI
  168. partnerships' violations of Section 7(a) of the Investment
  169. Company Act.
  170.  
  171. 2.Failure to Make and Keep Required Books and
  172. Records: Section 204 of the Advisers Act and
  173. the Rules Thereunder
  174.  
  175. From September 1991 through at least July 1993, Zadeh, while
  176. making use of the mails and telephone in connection with his
  177. business as an investment adviser, failed to make and keep
  178. general and auxiliary ledgers, as required by Rule 204-2(a)(2) of
  179. the Advisers Act.
  180.  
  181. Section 204 of the Advisers Act requires every investment adviser
  182. who makes use of the mails or of any means or instrumentality of
  183. interstate commerce in connection with its business as an
  184. investment adviser to make and keep such records and disseminate
  185. such reports as prescribed by the Commission. By failing to make
  186. and keep true, accurate, and current general and auxiliary
  187. ledgers, Zadeh willfully violated Section 204 of the Advisers Act
  188. and Rule 204-2(a)(2)thereunder.
  189.  
  190. Would you like to be the pot, or the kettle, Mr. Zedah?
