Text
Neither the fact that an application for registration has been filed nor the fact that a business opportunity is effectively registered constitutes a finding by the Secretary of State that any document filed under this Law is true, complete and not misleading. Neither any such fact nor the fact that an exemption or exception is available for a business opportunity means that the Secretary of State has passed in any way upon the merits or qualifications of, or recommended or given approval to, any person or business opportunity. It is unlawful to make, or cause to be made, to any purchaser any representation inconsistent with the requirements of this Section.
