ENFORCEMENT PROCEEDINGSCommission Charges Revlon with Misleading Shareholders in Going Private TransactionThe Securities and Exchange Commission (Commission) today charged cosmetics and beauty care manufacturer Revlon with violating federal securities laws when the company misled shareholders during a "going private transaction." Going private transactions can occur in many forms and typically involve the company delisting and deregistering its stock and cashing out their shareholders so the company or a private equity firm can acquire all of the outstanding shares. An SEC investigation found that during a voluntary exchange offer to satisfy a significant debt to its controlling shareholder, Revlon engaged in "ring fencing" that deprived its independent board members from knowing critical information: the transaction's consideration had been deemed inadequate by a third party who evaluated whether current and former employees invested in Revlon common stock through the company's 401(k) plan could exchange their shares. Revlon agreed to settle the SEC's charges and pay an $850,000 penalty. "Going private transactions create opportunities for shareholder abuse and can have coercive effects on minority shareholders," said Antonia Chion, Associate Director in the SEC's Division of Enforcement. "By erecting informational barriers, Revlon kept critically important information from its board and, in turn, misled investors." According to the SEC's order instituting settled administrative proceedings, controlling shareholder MacAndrews and Forbes (M&F) asked Revlon in 2009 to offer minority shareholders the option to exchange their common stock shares on a one-for-one basis for preferred shares with certain financial characteristics. The exchanged shares would then be provided to M&F to pay down Revlon's debt. The trustee administering Revlon's 401(k) plan decided that 401(k) members could tender their shares only if a third-party financial adviser made an "adequate consideration determination," which involved assessing whether the value of the preferred stock 401(k) members would receive was at least equal to the fair market value of the exchanged common stock shares. The third-party financial adviser ultimately found that the consideration offered in the transaction was inadequate for tendering 401(k) shareholders. The SEC's order finds that Revlon did not want to disclose the third-party financial adviser's view on the adequacy of the transaction's consideration. In an attempt to avoid a potential disclosure obligation, the company engaged in what one employee termed as "ring fencing" to avoid receiving the adequate consideration determination from the third-party adviser: • Revlon amended the trust agreement it had with the trustee to ensure that the trustee would not share the adequate consideration determination with Revlon. The SEC's order finds that Revlon's ring-fencing conduct resulted in various materially misleading disclosures to its shareholders. For example, Revlon represented in its offering documents that the board's process was full, fair, and complete in determining the fairness of the exchange offer. In reality, the process was compromised because Revlon's board was unable to consider the adequate consideration determination as part of its process to evaluate and ultimately approve the offer. Thus, Revlon's shareholders were deprived of the opportunity to receive revised, qualified, or supplemental disclosures, including any that might have informed them of the adequate consideration determination. The SEC's order finds that Revlon violated Section 13(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 13e-3(b)(1)(iii), which prohibits issuers and their affiliates in going private transactions from directly or indirectly engaging in any act, practice, or course of business that operates or would operate as a fraud or deceit. The SEC's order requires Revlon to cease and desist from committing or causing these violations and any future violations. Without admitting or denying the SEC's findings, Revlon agreed to the settlement and financial penalty. The SEC's investigation was conducted by Senior Counsel George B. Parizek and Staff Accountant Andrew M. Shirley, and supervised by Assistant Director Ricky Sachar. (Press Rel. 2013-110; 34-69750; File No. 3-15356) Former Mutual Fund Directors Agree to Settle Claims that They Failed to Properly Oversee Asset ValuationThe Commission today announced a settlement in an enforcement proceeding against eight former directors of five Regions Morgan Keegan open- and closed-end funds that were heavily invested in securities backed by subprime mortgages. The proceeding, which began in December 2012, alleged that the directors failed to satisfy their pricing responsibilities under the federal securities laws. Under the securities laws, fund directors are responsible for determining the fair value of portfolio securities for which market quotations are not readily available. In addition, fund directors must determine the methodologies to be used to fair value securities and must periodically reevaluate the appropriateness of those methodologies. The Commission made clear in Accounting Series Release No. 118 (Dec. 23, 1970) and In the Matter of Seaboard Associates Inc., Investment Company Act Release No. 13890 (April 16, 1984) that while fund directors may engage others to assist them to calculate fair values of these securities, they continue to be ultimately responsible to determine fair value in good faith. The settled order finds that the eight directors failed to satisfy these responsibilities. Specifically, the directors delegated their fair valuation responsibility to a valuation committee without providing adequate substantive guidance on how fair valuation determinations should be made. The directors then made no meaningful effort to learn how fair values were being determined. They received only limited information about the factors involved with the funds' fair value determinations, and obtained almost no information explaining why particular fair values were assigned to portfolio securities. The limited information provided to the directors was particularly problematic because fair valued securities comprised a significant percentage of the funds' net asset values (NAVs) – in most cases above 60 percent. The settled order finds that the valuation committee to whom the directors delegated the fair valuation responsibilities did not utilize reasonable procedures and often allowed the portfolio manager to arbitrarily set values. As a result, the settled order finds that the funds overstated the value of their securities as the housing market was on the brink of financial crisis in 2007. The SEC and other regulators previously charged Morgan Keegan and others, and the firms later agreed to pay $200 million to settle charges related to that conduct. "Our settlement sends a clear warning of our commitment to enforce the duty of mutual fund directors and trustees to closely oversee the process of valuing securities held by their funds," said George S. Canellos, Co-Director of the SEC's Division of Enforcement. The eight fund directors named are:
The open and closed end funds involved were the RMK High Income Fund, RMK Multi-Sector High Income Fund, RMK Strategic Income Fund, RMK Advantage Income Fund, and Morgan Keegan Select Fund. The litigation was conducted by members of the SEC's Atlanta Regional Office. The investigation was conducted by that office and the Asset Management Unit. (Press Rel. 2013-111; IC-30557; File No. 3-13127) In the Matter of David M. Tamman, Esq.An Administrative Law Judge issued an Order Making Findings and Denying Privilege to Appear or Practice Before the Commission by Default (Default Order) in David M. Tamman, Esq., Admin. Proc. 3-14207. The Default Order was issued pursuant to Section 4C of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, which provides that the Securities and Exchange Commission (Commission) may deny to any person the privilege of appearing or practicing before the Commission if the person, among other things, has engaged in unethical or improper professional conduct, and Commission Rule of Practice 102(e)(1)(ii), which provides that the Commission may censure a person or deny the privilege of appearing before the Commission in any way to a person found "to be lacking in character or integrity or to have engaged in unethical or improper professional conduct." 17 C.F.R. § 201.102(e)(1)(ii). David M. Tamman, Esq. (Tamman), was convicted on November 13, 2012, of ten felony charges in U.S. v. Farahi, CR No. 11-1165-SVW (C.D. Cal.). The criminal charges for which Tamman was convicted include conspiracy to obstruct justice; the destruction, alteration, and falsification of records; and receiving, relieving, comforting and assisting persons who committed mail fraud and violations of the securities statutes. Tamman did not file an opposition to the Office of the General Counsel's Motion for Summary Disposition or Motion for Default.
