FINAL JUDGMENT OF PERMANENT INJUNCTION AND OTHER RELIEF AS TO
DEFENDANT PRIME STAR GROUP, INC.
Plaintiff Securities and Exchange Commission commenced this action by filing its
Complaint against, among others, Defendant Prime Star Group, Inc. (“Prime Star”). In its
Complaint, the Commission sought, among other relief against Prime Star, a permanent
injunction to prohibit violations of Sections 5(a), 5(c), and 17(a) of the Securities Act of 1933
(“Securities Act”), [15 U.S.C. §§ 77e(a), 77e(c), and 77q(a)]; Sections 10(b), 13(a), 13(b)(2)(A)
and 13(b)(2)(B) and Rules 10b-5, 12b-20, 13a-1 and 13a-13 of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934 (“Exchange Act”), [15 U.S.C. §§ 78m(a), 78m(b)(2)(a) and 78m(b)(2)(b) and 17 C.F.R. §§
240.12b-20, 240.13a-1 and 240.13a-13].
Prime Star, by the attached Consent, without admitting or denying any of the allegations
in the Complaint, except that it acknowledges service of the Complaint on it and admits the
jurisdiction of this Court over it and over the subject matter of this action, has agreed to the entry
of this Judgment of Permanent Injunction and Other Relief as to Defendant Prime Star Group,
Inc. (“Final Judgment”). Prime Star also has waived findings of fact and conclusions of law and
has waived any right to appeal from this Final Judgment. This Court, having accepted Prime
Star’s Consent and having jurisdiction over it and the subject matter of this action, and having
