Department of Banking, "Losing

a high foreclosure rate in Pennsylvania and finds that "subprime" mortgages

The complaint alleges that defendants were aware of but concealed
from the
investing public during the Class Period, were as follows: (i) the Company's
storefront
software was defective; (ii) iMergent was extorting from its
customers thousands of dollars in additional
fees for technical support,
characterized as "executive mentoring," above and beyond what customers
contracted to pay as part of their service packages when they purchased the
storefront software;
(iii) since at least 2000, numerous customers had lodged
complaints with various state agencies concerning
defects with the storefront
software and the exorbitant "executive mentoring" fees charged; (iv)
the
Company's storefront software and service packages were being illegally
marketed as "franchises
" or "business opportunities" because iMergent was not
registered to engage in this type of business
in the states in which it was
operating and was not following the statutes applicable to companies
that
market franchises and business opportunities in those states; (v) the Company
was extending
credit to customers with subprime credit without disclosing that
the Company did not require these
customers to meet the Company's credit
criteria; (vi) the Company was entering into installment sale
contracts for
defective storefront software packages, with the knowledge that the defects in
the
software, the difficulty of its use, and the refusal of some customers to
purchase so-called "executive
mentoring" (needed to operate the software)
would lead to higher customer dissatisfaction, product
rejections, refusals to
pay for product packages being financed by the Company, and complaints to
and
legal action by federal and state authorities; and (vii) defendants had
concealed that iMergent
had been subjected to a lawsuit and a cease and desist
order by the State of Washington in early
2004 concerning misconduct similar
to that alleged by the State of Texas in its February 2005 lawsuit
