NOTICE OF MEMBER RESPONSIBILITY ACTION AND ASSOCIATE RESPONSIBILITY ACTION:

On April 26, 2011, NFA issued a Member Responsibility Action ("MRA") against FIN FX LLC ("FINFX") and an Associate Responsibility Action ("ARA") against Leon Lourens Wolmarans ("Wolmarans") whereby:

1. Effective immediately, FINFX and Wolmarans are suspended from NFA membership and associate membership, respectively, and are prohibited from soliciting or accepting any funds from customers or investors and soliciting investments for any investment vehicles;

2. FINFX and Wolmarans are required to provide copies of this MRA/ARA via overnight courier to all banks and other financial institutions with which money is on deposit in the name of FINFX or Wolmarans or accounts over which FINFX or Wolmarans exercises control; and

3. FINFX and Wolmarans are prohibited from disbursing or transferring any funds from any bank accounts, or brokerage account (including securities, commodities, and forex), in either of their names or in the name of any other individual or entity over which they exercise control, without prior approval from NFA.

This action is effective immediately and is deemed necessary to protect prospective customers of FINFX and Wolmarans since FINFX and Wolmarans were attempting to solicit customers with patently false and misleading information. In addition, FINFX and Wolmarans provided misleading information to NFA and have failed to cooperate with NFA in an examination of FINFX or demonstrate that they are in full compliance with NFA Requirements.

The MRA and ARA will remain in effect until such time as FINFX and Wolmarans have demonstrated to the satisfaction of NFA that they are in complete compliance with all NFA Requirements.
