SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE 

COMMISSION 

Sunshine Act Meeting 

Notice is hereby given, pursuant to 

the provisions of the Government in the 

Sunshine Act, Public Law 94–409, that 

the Securities and Exchange 

Commission will hold an Open Meeting 

on Wednesday, October 1, 2008 at 

10 a.m., in the Auditorium, Room L– 

002. 

The subject matter of the Open 

Meeting will be: 

Item 1: The Commission will hear oral 

argument on an appeal by Gary M. 

Kornman from an initial decision of an 

administrative law judge barring him 

from associating with any broker, 

dealer, or investment adviser. The law 

judge based her decision to impose 

associational bars on Kornman’s having 

been criminally convicted of making a 

false statement to the Commission in 

violation of 18 U.S.C. 1001. Issues likely 

to be considered include whether it is 

in the public interest to bar Kornman 

from association with any broker, 

dealer, or investment adviser. 

Item 2: The Commission will hear oral 

argument on an appeal by Nature’s 

Sunshine Products, Inc. (‘‘Nature’s 

Sunshine’’) from an initial decision of 

an administrative law judge. The law 

judge found that Nature’s Sunshine had 

violated Section 13(a) of the Securities 

Exchange Act of 1934 and Exchange Act 

Rules 13a–1 and 13a–13 by failing to file 

any annual report on Form 10–K since 

filing its Form 10–K for the year ended 

December 31, 2004, and by failing to file 

any quarterly report on Form 10–Q with 

financial statements that had been 

reviewed by a registered independent 

public accounting firm since filing its 

Form 10–Q for the quarter ended June 

30, 2005. Issues likely to be considered 

include whether it is necessary or 

appropriate for the protection of 

investors to revoke the registration of 

Nature’s Sunshine’s common stock. 

At times, changes in Commission 

priorities require alterations in the 

scheduling of meeting items. 

For further information and to 

ascertain what, if any, matters have been 

added, deleted or postponed, please
