Corporations Code section 25534

Whenever any securities are issued which the commissioner determines were offered or sold in violation of Section 25110, 25120, or 25130, the commissioner may, by written order to the issuer and notice to the holders of such securities, require certificates evidencing such securities to have stamped or printed prominently on their face a legend, in the form prescribed by rule of the commissioner, restricting the transfer of such securities. Upon receipt of the order, the issuer shall stamp or print such legend prominently on the face of all outstanding certificates subject to the order. If, after such order or notice has been given, a request for a hearing is filed in writing by the person or persons to whom such order or notice was addressed, a hearing shall be held in accordance with the provisions of the Administrative Procedure Act, Chapter 5 (commencing with Section 11500) of Part 1 of Division 3 of Title 2 of the Government Code, and the commissioner shall have all the powers granted thereunder; unless such hearing is commenced within 15 business days after the request for hearing is received by the commissioner (or the person or persons affected and the issuer consent to a later date), such order and notice are rescinded.
