    1. pursuant to paragraphs 2 and 2.1 of subsection 127(1) of the Act, trading in or acquisition of any securities by Zarr shall cease, except that he may trade or acquire securities for his own account through a registrant if, prior to such trade or acquisition, he gives the registrant a copy of the BC Order and a copy of the order resolting from this decision;
    2. pursuant to paragraph 3 of subsection 127(1) of the Act, none of the exemptions contained in Ontario securities law shall apply to Zarr;
