packages are what primarily motivates the investing public to part with their hard-earned money. These product/investment packages however carry with them the duty and/or the pressure on the part of the purchaser to recruit new investors to ensure his/her receipt of the bonuses/returns.

There are essentially two (2) product/investment packages which

A careful examination and analysis of the investment scheme of 1UP TIME will readily show that its success and viability is heavily dependent on recruitment and/or entry of new investors who are guaranteed F500 per new recruit/referral. This is further supported by

The video presentations which the EIPD submitted in evidence show Dr. Joseph Alexis Mercado ("Dr. Mercado"),14 who is more popularly known as the "Millionaire Maker", actively encouraging 1UP TIME members-investors to recruit new investors by capitalizing on the incentives/bonuses which they are guaranteed to receive for every successful referral.

On the basis of the information and data gathered in the course of its investigation the EIPD concluded that the product/investment packages which 1UP TIME is selling/offering are securities in the form of investment contracts which require a secondary license from the Commission. Considering that 1UP TIME has not secured the requisite license from the Commission, its continued sale of the same constitutes a violation of Section 8 of the SRC in relation to Section 3.1 of the SRC-IRR which warrants the issuance of a CDO.

ISSUE

Whether the allegations and evidence submitted by the EIPD in support thereof warrant the issuance of a CDO.

RULING

We grant the Motion.

The pieces of evidence presented by the EIPD sufficiently established that 1UP TIME, Mr. Nolasco, its directors, officers and Agents are selling and/or offering unregistered securities in the form of investment contracts to the public without the requisite license from the Commission, in violation of the SRC and the SRC-IRR

At the outset, the Commission notes that the Primary Purpose Clause of 1UP TIME as stated in its AoI specifically provides that it has no authority to solicit or accept investments from the public, to wit:

through the efforts of the promoter or of someone other than themselves.16 It is in the context of the foregoing that the U.S. Supreme Court came up with and adopted the Howey Testi7 in determining if an investment scheme, regardless of the legal terminology used, partakes of the nature of an investment contract.

In the case of Virata vs. Ng Wee,18 the Supreme Court reiterated and emphasized the applicability of the Howey Test in determining if a security is an investment contract that requires prior registration from the Commission, thus:

"In this jurisdiction, the Court employs the Howey test, named after the landmark case of Securities and Exchange Commission v. W.J. Howey Co., to determine whether or not the security being offered takes the form of an investment contract. The case served as the foundation for the domestic definition of the said security.

Under the Howey test, the following must concur for an investment investment of money: (3) investment is made in a common enterprise; (4) expectation of profits; and (5) profits arising primarily from the efforts of others. Indubitably, all of the elements contract to exist: (1) a contract, transaction, or scheme: (2) an

are present in the extant case." (Emphasis supplied)

Relative thereto, the Supreme Court equally emphasized in the case of Power Homes Unlimited Corp. v. Securities and Exchange Commission19 that in applying the Howey Test, the nature and the entirety of the transaction should be considered, thus:

contract under R.A. No. 8799. Our definition of an investment contract traces its roots from the 1946 United States (US] case of SEC v. W.J. Howey Co. In this case, the US Supreme Court was confronted with the issue of whether the Howey transaction constituted an "investment "It behooves us to trace the history of the concept of an investment

contract" under the Securities Act's definition of "security." The US Supreme Court, recognizing that the term "investment contract" was under the state's "blue sky" laws in existence prior to the adoption of the Securities Act. Thus, it ruled that the use of the catch-all term not defined by the Act or illumined by any legislative report, held that "Congress was using a term whose meaning had been crystallized" "investment contract" indicated a congressional intent to cover a wide

(Emphasis ours)

Applying the Howey Test to the instant case, the Commission agrees with the EIPD's finding, and holds that 1UP TIME is engaged in the sale and/or offer of unregistered securities in the form of investment contracts in violation of Section 8.1 of the SRC as all the elements are present, to wit:

First, there is an investment of money made by member- investors who have paid for the product/investment packages which they have purchased from 1UP TIME. In this regard, EIPD presented evidence that investors actually invested in 1UP TIME's product packages, a fact that is corroborated by the posts/publications made by 1UP TIME which showcased its monthly Valorant top performers.

Second, the EIPD was able to show that the investment scheme of 1UP TIME involves the pooling of amounts invested by its member-investors which are actually utilized to pay various bonuses, rewards and incentives promised to its existing members. This mechanism which ensures the continued operation of 1UP TIME is the common enterprise that is being sustained by the investments that it is receiving from the public;

Third, the member-investors clearly expect profits from the product/investment packages which they have purchased from 1UP TIME up to an amount of P28,000.00/day or p840,000.00/month; and

receive are generated through the efforts'of 1UP TIME, Mr. Fourth, the profits which member-investors expect to NECCG

Nolasco, and/or its Agents who carry out extensive marketing and distribution activities to ensure the continued influx of new member-investors. The guaranteed returns and bonuses are also generated because of the efforts of new members who recruit and establish/broaden their respective downlines.

Moreover, the act of 1UP TIME in conducting actual presentations

3.1.17.3 Advertisement or announcement in radio, television, telephone, communication electronic technology communications, or any other information forms of communication;" (Emphasis supplied)

Considering that 1UP TIME has not secured the requisite license from the Commission as shown in the Certifications issued by the MSRD CRMD, and CGFD,20 its act of publicly offering unregistered securities equally constitutes a violation of Section 8.1 of the SRC in relation to the afore-quoted provision of the SRC-IRR. Verily, this warrants the issuance of a CDO.

Section 64.1 of the SRC provides that the Commission may issue a CDO without the necessity of conducting a hearing if, to its mind, the act or practice will operate as a fraud on investors or is otherwise likely to cause grave or irreparable injury or prejudice to the investing public, thus:

proper investigation or verification, motu proprio or upon verified complaint by any aggrieved party, may issue a cease and desist order or practice, unless restrained, will operate as a fraud on investors "Section 64.
