Item 5. Other Events.
The Registrant’s wholly owned subsidiary, Metropolitan Investment Securities, Inc. (“MIS”), a National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. member firm, has entered into, and on October 23, 2003 the NASD accepted, a Letter of Acceptance, Waiver and Consent (“AWC”) to settle alleged violations of the NASD’s rules by MIS. Under the AWC, MIS has been censured and fined $500,000. MIS, in addition to other undertakings, has agreed to make restitution to certain investors, establish a special escrow account for the benefit of additional investors and agreed not to sell securities of its affiliates until it has revised its systems, supervision, training and written procedures with respect to those sales. If MIS fails to comply with the AWC, it could have an adverse impact on MIS’s ability to continue to sell securities.
