Eric A. McAfee, 42, of Saratoga, California, Verdisys' CEO before it became publicly held, and a director from late 2000 until his resignation in March 2004.
Beginning in May 2003, according to the Commission's complaint, Verdisys issued misleading press releases which Wilson and Williams prepared and reviewed. The releases failed to disclose that the company's touted lateral drilling technology only consisted of two prototypes with no track record of substantial success and that its two major customers did not have the financial resources to support announced drilling contracts totaling $19 million. Further, statements in a press release predicting that Verdisys' technology would rejuvenate a formerly prolific natural gas field in Louisiana lacked a reasonable basis in fact.
