Commission AnnouncementsMichael A. Conley Named SEC’s Deputy General CounselWashington, D.C., October 4, 2011 – The Securities and Exchange Commission announced today that Michael A. Conley has been named a Deputy General Counsel in the SEC’s Office of General Counsel. Mr. Conley has been promoted from the position of Deputy Solicitor and will serve as Deputy General Counsel for Litigation and Adjudication, a role in which he will help oversee enforcement matters, appellate cases, and adjudications. Mr. Conley joined the Commission in October 2000, and has served as the Jennings Attorney Fellow, a Senior Special Counsel, and the Deputy Solicitor. Mr. Conley has extensive litigation experience and a deep knowledge of the U.S. securities laws combined with a background in law office management. “Michael is a spectacular lawyer who will bring to his new position an extraordinary breadth of experience,” said SEC General Counsel Mark Cahn. “I have benefited from Michael’s wise counsel since I joined the Commission, and I know that he has earned, in his roles as Senior Special Counsel and Deputy Solicitor, the deep respect of his colleagues here at the SEC. I am delighted that he has agreed to serve in this new position.” Mr. Conley said, “I have great respect for the talented and dedicated staff of the General Counsel's Office, who provide vital support to the Commission and its Divisions and Offices in carrying out the agency’s mission of protecting investors. I look forward to continuing to work alongside the staff in my new role, and I thank Chairman Schapiro and Mark Cahn for this tremendous opportunity.” Mr. Conley began his legal career by serving as a law clerk, first for Judge Abner J. Mikva of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit and then for U.S. Supreme Court Justice Harry A. Blackmun. He received his JD in 1989 from Boston University School of Law, where he graduated first in a class of 425 and was the Editor-in-Chief of the Boston University Law Review. He earned his BA from Iona College in 1984. Mr. Conley replaces Anne Small who has left the Commission to take a position at the White House as Special Assistant to the President and Associate Counsel to the President.

(Rel. 34-65476; File No. 3-14513) Former Regional Investment Banking Firm Chairman Settles Insider Trading Case; Parallel Criminal Case Has Also Been ConcludedThe Securities and Exchange Commission announced that it has reached a settlement of its pending insider trading charges against Richard A. Hansen, the former Chairman of Keystone Equities Group, a registered broker-dealer and regional investment bank. The Commission’s complaint, originally filed on September 27, 2010, alleged that Hansen received illegal tips concerning pending acquisitions from his then-employee and close personal friend Donna Murdoch; that Murdoch had learned of the acquisitions through her close personal relationship with James Gansman, then an Ernst & Young (“E&Y”) partner who worked on the transactions for E&Y clients; and that Hansen traded on the illegal tips through accounts in others’ names and also passed on one of the tips to his longtime friend Stuart Kobrovsky, a retired stockbroker, who likewise traded. Without admitting or denying the allegations—except to the extent they are embraced by his guilty plea and conviction in the parallel criminal case of United States v. Hansen, 1:10-cr-875-PAC-1 (S.D.N.Y., judgment entered May 13, 2011) (hereinafter the “parallel criminal case”), which he admits—Hansen has agreed to settle the Commission’s allegations against him, and his settlement papers were submitted to the Court for its consideration. In particular, Hansen signed a consent that provides—subject to approval by the Court—for the entry of a final judgment permanently enjoining him against future violations of the Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 thereunder. The final judgment to which Hansen consented would further order that he is liable for a combined total in disgorgement and prejudgment interest of $63,038, comprising all the profits flowing from his own illegal trading, which he conducted through the accounts of his daughters and Murdoch, according to the Commission’s Complaint. Of that total, $32,222 would be deemed satisfied by the order of criminal forfeiture entered against Hansen in the parallel criminal case, leaving a balance due of $30,816, which Hansen would be required to pay within 30 days after entry of the Final Judgment, or within 60 days after his release from prison in the parallel criminal case, whichever is later. Finally, the Final Judgment would bar Hansen permanently from serving as an officer or director of any public company. Additionally, Hansen consented, in related administrative proceedings, to the entry of a Commission order that would bar him from association with any broker, dealer, investment adviser, municipal securities dealer, municipal advisor, transfer agent, or nationally recognized statistical rating organization, or from participating in any offering of a penny stock. The parallel criminal case was filed by the United States Attorneys’ Office for the Southern District of New York on September 27, 2010—simultaneously with the filing of the Commission’s Complaint in this action—and charged Hansen with securities fraud and conspiracy to commit securities fraud. Hansen pleaded guilty to those charges on February 9, 2011, and the court entered a judgment of conviction on May 13, 2011. As part of his plea, Hansen agreed to forfeit $59,631, representing proceeds traceable to his illegal conduct. Of that amount, $32,222 derives from illicit trades embraced by the Commission’s Complaint. The Court sentenced Hansen to three months imprisonment, followed by five months of home confinement and two years’ probation. If approved by the Court, this settlement would conclude this case, as the Commission’s settlement with codefendant Kobrovsky was approved by the Court last October. The Commission’s related case against Gansman and Murdoch has also been concluded, as has a parallel criminal case against them. In that criminal case, Murdoch entered guilty pleas on December 23, 2008 to a total of 17 felony counts and was sentenced on July 27, 2011 to two years’ probation, including six months of home confinement, as well as 300 hours of community service and forfeiture of $392,000. For his part, Gansman was convicted by a jury on May 15, 2009 of six felony counts and acquitted of four; he was sentenced on February 25, 2010 to a year and a day in prison; and his convictions were recently affirmed on appeal. See United States v. Gansman, No. 10-0731-cr, 2011 U.S. App. LEXIS 18664 (2d Cir. Sept. 9, 2011). The Commission acknowledges the assistance of the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the Options Regulatory Surveillance Authority, and the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority. [SEC v. Richard A. Hansen et. al., Civil Action No. 10-CV-5050 (E.D.P.A.)] (LR-22112) SEC Obtains Judgments in Case Involving Ponzi Scheme By Co-Founder of China Voice Holding Corp.On October 4, 2011, the Securities and Exchange Commission announced that the Honorable Reed O’Connor, United States District Judge for the Northern District of Texas, recently entered orders permanently enjoining multiple defendants in a case involving the co-founder of China Voice Holding Corp. Without admitting or denying the allegations in the Commission’s complaint, Alex Dowlatshahi and Christopher Mills and certain companies they control consented to the entry of judgments that permanently enjoin them from violating Sections 5(a), 5(c), and 17(a) of the Securities Act and Section 10(b) of the Exchange Act and Rule 10b-5 thereunder. The judgments also provide that upon motion of the Commission, the Court may order disgorgement of ill-gotten gains, prejudgment interest thereon, and civil penalties in amounts the Court deems appropriate. The judgments were entered on August 31, 2011, and September 19, 2011. Dowlatshahi, Mills, and their entities consented to the entry of the judgments without admitting or denying the allegations in the Commission’s complaint. On September 23, 2011, Defendant Ilya Drapkin was permanently enjoined from violating Section 17(a)(3) of the Securities Act. In addition the judgment permanently bars Drapkin from participating in the offer or sale of penny stocks and provides that, upon motion of the Commission, the Court shall order disgorgement of ill-gotten gains, prejudgment interest thereon, and civil penalties in amounts the Court deems appropriate. Drapkin consented to the entry of the judgment without admitting or denying the allegations in the Commission’s complaint. On September 26, 2011, Defendant Gerald Patera, and his companies, Defendants Capital Bankers Group Ltd. and Third Securities Corp., were permanently enjoined from violating Section 17(a) of the Securities Act and Sections 10(b) and 15(a) of the Exchange Act and Rule 10b-5 thereunder. In addition, the judgment permanently bars Patera from participating in the offer or sale of penny stocks and provides that, upon motion of the Commission, the Court shall order disgorgement of ill-gotten gains, prejudgment interest thereon, and civil penalties in amounts the Court deems appropriate. The Defendants consented to the entry of the judgment without admitting or denying the allegations in the Commission’s complaint. The Commission filed an emergency action on April 28, 2011, alleging that China Voice’s co-founder and former Chief Financial Officer, David Ronald Allen, with the assistance Dowlatshahi and Mills, and numerous related entities, launched what became a Ponzi scheme that sought to raise at least $8.6 million from investors across the country. The SEC’s complaint also charged China Voice, its former chairman and CEO William Burbank IV, and Allen for a series of fraudulent statements about China Voice’s financial condition and business prospects, as well as Patera, Drapkin, and Robert Wilson for their roles in the promotion of China Voice’s stock. The Commission’s case is still pending against remaining defendants Allen, Burbank, Wilson, China Voice, and various of their related entities. [SEC v.
