AND JOHN H. KIMMEL III
In accepting EIC and Kimmel's Offer of Settlement, the Commission revoked EIC's
registration as an investment adviser and barred Kimmel from being associated with
any broker, dealer, or investment adviser. (ReI. 34-20379)
The Commission filed a complaint on November 30 in the u.S. District Court for the
District of Columbia against Channel Industries, Ltd., its directors, Robert B.
Greenberg, Lois H. Muller, and N. Norman Muller, and its independent accountant,
Herman L. Freid and B.L. Freid & Co., P.C.
The complaint alleges violations of the antifraud, reporting and recordkeeping pro
visions of the securities laws in a public offering of Channel's stock in April i98l
and with annual reports filed by Channel in 1981 and 1982. Specifically, the c~
plaint alleges that: the registration statement used in Channel's public offering
failed to disclose a loss from operations and a reversal of favorable sales and
cost of sales trends which occurred after the period covered by the financial
statements included in the registration statement; Channel's 1980 and 1981 annual
reports were materially false and misleading; and the examinations of Channel's
financial statements by Freid & Co. did not comply with generally accepted auditing
standards and Freid and Freid & Co. issued materially false and misleading opinions
on Channel's 1980 and 1981 financial statements.
