Securities issued by banks and charitable organizations are exempt from SEC registration and disclosure requirements.
 a. True
  b. False
  Indicate whether the statement is true or false

Question 2

Right of Subrogation. Levinson and Johnson, who had both signed a promissory note, did not pay the note when it was due. Instead, American Thermex, Inc, a corporation in which Johnson had a controlling interest, voluntarily paid the note. American Thermex later brought suit against Levinson, seeking reimbursement for the payment. American Thermex argued, among other things, that because it had paid the note, it had the legal right of subrogation against the note's co-maker, Levinson. Will the court agree that American Thermex has a legal right of subrogation? Why or why not?

Answer to Question 1

TRUE

Answer to Question 2

Right of subrogation
No. American Thermex had no legal right of subrogation. The right of subrogation is extended only to sureties, and American Thermex was not a surety on the note. American Thermex's name did not appear on the face of the note, and the court could find no evidence that American Thermex had ever legally obligated itself to pay the note. Rather, its payment was made voluntarily. Therefore, American Thermex had no right of subrogation at law and could not recover the payment from the note's co-maker, Levinson.

There are major differences in the metabolism of morphine and the illegal drug heroin. Morphine mostly produces its CNS effects through m-receptors, and at k- and d-receptors. Heroin has a slight affinity for opiate receptors. Most of its actions are due to metabolism to active metabolites (6-acetylmorphine, morphine, and morphine-6-glucuronide).
