Q21. George Geek is a computer programmer who tired of working for others and started his own company. He
convinced forty investors that he could design software that would rival Microsoft, and sold them each a
1 0% partnership interest in his firm for $25,000. He designed and printed up the partnership certificates
himself. George told the investors that he had a product that was on the verge of being marketable and
that when it did-within the next two months-revenues would pour into the company, and he would begin
paying dividends. He told them they could expect a 20% return on their money this year, with even higher
returns in the years to come. As it turned out, George wasn’t quite the programmer he thought he was,
and he wasn’t able to get all the bugs out of the program to make it marketable within the promised two
months. Within a year, George had tired of the project and was too busy picking up chicks in his new
Corvette when he wasn’t on the island of St. Bart overseeing the construction of his new beach
mansion-and picking up chicks. His activities, of course, were financed by the extremely generous
“salary” he paid himself from the investors’ monies. Under the Uniform Securities Act, do the investors
have any civil claims against George?

Q26. A-2-Z Associates advertises itself as a full service brokerage firm that will buy and sell securities for its
clients, as well as provide investment advice to them. Its brochure provides a variety of plans to which a
client can subscribe. The basic plan is the cheapest and allows the client a maximum number of trades
per month for a specified fee. Another, slightly more expensive, plan provides the client with the same
maximum number of trades per month, but the client also receives a personalized quarterly review of his
portfolio along with advice for restructuring his portfolio based on such factors as current market
conditions and specific industry or company information. The most expensive plan is one in which the
client is assigned to an individual portfolio manager, who will take total responsibility for the asset

Q31. Constance is an investment adviser representative. She told one of her clients that he should put at least
1 5% of his investment monies in a U.S. government bond mutual fund.
She explained that she believed that he required this percentage to meet his liquidity needs, and U.S.

in order to pay some medical bills and was surprised to discover that he lost money on the sale because
the net asset value of the fund had dropped. Was Constance guilty of any securities violations?
