3 Banking Laws) for commodity transactions. 
 
The Seller must submit a complete FCO with Seller coordinates attached, plus 
their passport copy. The FCO must fit the operating procedures of the Buyer. 
 
No Instrument can be issued until full and proper verification of the product has 
been provided by the authorized Seller, who must be the legitimate title holder, 
and must be approved by the Buyers Bank. 
 
This is in response to the International Convention on International Commodity 
Fraud. Banks have to become fully compliant with the new regulations. Should 
a Bank fail to recognize the new legislation then the consequences are a fine of 
up to US$10,000,000.

the offer fits the operational procedures of the Buyer. There will be no exceptions.

THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE PATRIOT ACT I AND ACT II 
 

The procedures listed here are specific as to what was issued by the U.S. Federal 
Reserve Bank (FED) and the World Gold Council on June 6th, 2007 as what are 
required by law and now to be followed on all Gold (AU) transactions. The specific 
guidelines as set forth by these two agencies exactly as required now to do AU 
transactions and you will probably want to keep a copy of this for your records as it 
is the only legal way of doing these transactions now.

Meeting at the bank if the seller and buyer wish, or a ledger inter-bank contract

GOLD/AU TRANSACTION (SINCE 1.8.2006) 
 
Under the new guidelines recently set forth by the Federal Reserve for Gold AU 
metal it is required by the bank officers to do standard FED compliance on the 
metal and the seller/beneficial owners of the metal on a bank to bank basis before 
any contracts can be signed. 
 
Anything outside of a strict Swiss procedure of POP with Sellers client info sheet 
and passport is now illegal to even attempt to transact. The seller, if they are 
legitimate, must be ready, willing and able to submit this information directly by 
SWIFT to the Buyer's Bank Officer for standard banking compliance under the new 
regulations. 
 
Upon completion of this compliance the buyer's bank officer will then respond with 
POF including the Buyer's client info sheet and passport information for the seller's 
bank officer to do their compliance as well. If the seller is not willing to comply with 
the new guidelines, we are sure there is no transaction worth going to jail over. 
 
These guidelines are to be used to provide security and procedural guidance to 
sellers interested in doing business with BUYER. This is based on the requirements 
of the FED and WGC. In addition to this is additional security requirements from 
BUYER to ensure credibility of offer submitted to BUYER.
