TAKE NOTICE: The Financial Services Authority (the "FSA") of 25 The North
Colonnade, Canary Wharf, London E14 5HS gives you, Michael Muhammad trading as
Hereafter Finance, final notice about a decision to cancel the permission granted to you
to carry on regulated activities

1.
ACTION

1.1
The FSA gave you a Decision Notice on 14 April 2011 (the "Decision Notice") which
notified you that for the reasons given below and pursuant to section 45 of the
Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (the "Act"), the FSA had decided to cancel
the permission granted to you pursuant to Part IV of the Act ("your Part IV
permission"). You have not referred the matter to the Upper Tribunal within 28 days
of the date on which the Decision Notice was given to you. Accordingly, the FSA has
today cancelled your Part IV permission.

2.
REASONS FOR ACTION

2.1 On the basis of the facts and matters and conclusions described in its Warning Notice
dated 23 February 2011 (the "Warning Notice"), and in the Decision Notice, it
appears to the FSA that you are failing to satisfy the threshold conditions set out in
Schedule 6 to the Act (the "Threshold Conditions") in that the FSA is not satisfied

that you are a fit and proper person having regard to all the circumstances, including
the need to ensure that your business is conducted soundly and prudently.

2.2
This is because you have failed to comply with the regulatory requirement to submit
your Retail Mediation Activities Return for the period ended 30 September 2010 (the
“RMAR”). You have not been open and co-operative in all your dealings with the
FSA, in that you have failed to respond to the FSA's repeated requests for you to
submit the RMAR, and have thereby failed to comply with Principle 11 of the FSA's
Principles for Businesses and to satisfy the FSA that you are ready, willing and
organised to comply with the requirements and standards under the regulatory system.

2.3
These failures, which are significant in the context of your suitability, lead the FSA to
conclude that you are not conducting your business soundly and prudently and in
compliance with proper standards, that you are not a fit and proper person, and that
you are therefore failing to satisfy the Threshold Conditions in relation to the
regulated activities for which you have had Part IV permission.

3.
