The Order also contains the terms of the settlement of those proceedings, which include a cease-and-desist order concerning violations of Sections 13(d) of the Exchange Act and Rules 13d-1 and 13d-2 promulgated thereunder and a civil penalty of $90,000.

The Order does not include any scienter-based charges or findings against Mr. Jonas. The Order also noted that information concerning Mr. Jonas’s beneficial ownership interests in the four companies was disclosed separately in other filings with the Commission.
