EQCO2, Inc., Billy Barnwell, Shad Sullivan, and Arnold F. Sock each deny the allegations, which they assert to be misstatements, and obfuscations of true facts made by Crown.
EQCO2 and the named individuals are considering taking legal action against Crown and others involved. EQCO2 welcomes an investigation by the FBI, the SEC, and FINRA and requests an investigation of the trading of EQCO2–s stock.
