(Rel. 34-65767; File No. 3-14608) In the Matter of FTN Financial Securities Corp.On November 17, 2011, the Commission brought charges against FTN Financial Securities Corp. (FTN), a broker-dealer headquartered in Memphis, Tennessee, for assisting Sentinel Management Group, Inc. (Sentinel), a bankrupt former investment adviser, in its failure to maintain accurate books and records concerning its securities transaction liabilities in its year-end 2006 financial statements. Sentinel used the financial statements as part of its fraud against its advisory clients. According to the Commission’s Order, over year-end 2006 and the first few days of 2007, Sentinel engaged in a five-day reverse repurchase transaction (Repo Transaction) with FTN. Sentinel used the proceeds from the Repo Transaction to pay down a portion of a bank loan balance temporarily before year-end 2006 in order to reduce the amount reported in its year-end financial statements. Sentinel did not include in its 2006 financial statements a liability associated with its obligation to repurchase the securities when the Repo Transaction was unwound. The Order finds that FTN was a cause of Sentinel’s violation of Section 204(a) of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 and Rule 204-2(a)(6) promulgated thereunder. The Order requires FTN to cease and desist from committing or causing any violations and any future violations of these provisions and to pay disgorgement of $1,495,878.00 and prejudgment interest of $377,758.73. FTN consented to the entry of the Order without admitting or denying the findings in the Order. (Rel. IA-3316; File No. 3-14632) In the Matter of Dale E.

St. Jean (St. Jean), permanently enjoining him from violating Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 thereunder, and from violating Sections 206(1), 206(2), and 206(4) of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 (Advisers Act), and Rule 206(4)-8 thereunder, in connection with his involvement in the fraudulent use of investor proceeds in two funds, Arcanum Equity Fund, LLC and Vestium Equity Fund, LLC. Based on the final judgment entered against St. Jean, the Decision bars St. Jean from association with any investment adviser, broker, dealer, municipal securities dealer, and transfer agent, pursuant to Section 203(f) of the Advisers Act. (Initial Decision No. 442; File No. 3-14472) Final Judgment Entered Against Frank C. Calmes, Lynn D. Rowntree, and James E. Pratt For Violating the Federal Securities LawsThe Securities and Exchange Commission announced today that the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida entered final judgments, dated November 10, 2011, against Frank C. Calmes, Lynn D. Rowntree, and James E. Pratt. Calmes and Rowntree had been principals at First Equity Corporation, a Boca Raton company that took small companies public via reverse mergers. Pratt, a lawyer, provided legal opinions regarding the ability to sell stock in the newly public companies. According to the SEC’s Complaint, Calmes, Rowntree, and Pratt, along with co-defendant Manny J. Shulman, illegally sold millions of shares of unregistered securities in violation of the registration provisions of the Securities Act of 1933 (“Securities Act”). In addition, Calmes, Rowntree, and Shulman were alleged to have committed fraud in selling securities, in violation of Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”) and Rule 10b-5 thereunder. Calmes, Rowntree, and Pratt entered into bifurcated settlements with the SEC in May of 2011, just before a jury trial was to begin. Under the bifurcated settlements, Calmes and Rowntree agreed to be permanently enjoined from violating Sections 5(a) and 5(c) of the Securities Act, Section 10(b) of the Exchange Act, and Rule 10b-5 thereunder, while Pratt agreed to be permanently enjoined from violating Sections 5(a) and 5(c) of the Securities Act. All three agreed to be barred from participating in any penny stock offering, and to cancel any shares of the corporations at issue in their possession or control. In addition, Defendant Calmes consented to be permanently barred from acting as an officer or director of any public issuer. The bifurcated settlements left open, and the final judgments entered last week addressed, defendants’ liability for disgorgement of ill-gotten gains, prejudgment interest thereon, and the imposition of penalties. The final judgments imposed the following relief: against Calmes, $1,886,918 in disgorgement, $468,441 in prejudgment interest, and a $5,000 penalty; against Rowntree, $693,948 in disgorgement, $157,411 in prejudgment interest, and a $5,000 penalty; and against Pratt, $258,796 in disgorgement, $64,247 in prejudgment interest, and a $5,000 penalty. Shulman proceeded to trial and on May 9, 2011 the jury returned a verdict finding him liable for violating Sections 5(a) and 5(c) of the Securities Act by selling uregistered securities and for violating Section 10(b) of the Exchange Act and Rule 10b-5 thereunder by issuing materially false and misleading press releases regarding a company whose shares he was selling. On July 12, 2011, the Court enjoined Shulman from further violations of the federal securities laws, permanently barred Shulman from participating in any penny stock offering or acting as an officer or director of any public issuer, ordered disgorgement of $273,152, ordered payment of prejudgment interest of $95,633.44, and imposed a $5,000 penalty. The Court further ordered Shulman’s wife, Krystal Becnel, who was named as a relief defendant in the SEC’s Complaint, to disgorge $131,914. [SEC v. Frank C. Calmes, Lynn D. Rowntree, James E. Pratt, and Manny J. Shulman, Case No. 09-80524-CIV0-ZLOCH (S.D. Fla.] (LR-22157) Court Enters Final Judgment in Settlement of Hedge Fund Insider Trading CaseThe Securities and Exchange Commission announced today that on November 16, 2011, the Honorable Deborah A. Batts of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York entered final judgments against Dr. Joseph F. Skowron III and Dr. Yves M. Benhamou in the SEC’s insider trading case, SEC v. Joseph F. “Chip” Skowron III, et al., Civil Action No. 10-CV-8266-DAB (S.D.N.Y.). The SEC charged Benhamou, a French doctor and medical researcher, with unlawfully tipping material, non-public information to Skowron, a former portfolio manager of six healthcare-related hedge funds, who was charged with using the inside information to trade ahead of a January 23, 2008 negative announcement, helping the hedge funds he managed avoid losses of approximately $30 million. The hedge funds were named as relief defendants. The final judgments permanently enjoin Skowron and Benhamou from violations of Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 thereunder and Section 17(a) of the Securities Act of 1933. Skowron was ordered to disgorge $29,017,156 (a joint and several obligation with the relief defendants), plus $1,360,000 (for which he is individually obligated), plus prejudgment interest of $5,142,782, and to pay a civil penalty in the amount of $2,720,000. Benhamou was ordered to disgorge $52,138, plus prejudgment interest of $8,237. The six relief defendant hedge funds were ordered to disgorge $29,017,156, plus prejudgment interest of $4,003,669; the final judgment against Skowron provides that his disgorgement and prejudgment interest (but not penalty) obligation shall be credited dollar for dollar by amounts the relief defendants are ordered to disgorge and/or by amounts that Skowron is ordered to forfeit in the related criminal action. Both Skowron and Benhamou pled guilty in parallel criminal cases before the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, titled United States v. Joseph F. Skowron III, 11-CR-00699-DLC (S.D.N.Y.) and United States v. Yves M. Benhamou, 11-CR-336-GBD (S.D.N.Y.). [SEC v. Joseph F. “Chip” Skowron III, et al., Civil Action No. 10-CV-8266-DAB (S.D.N.Y.)] (LR-22158) SEC Obtains Temporary Restraining Order and Asset Freeze Against New Hampshire Futures Day-Trading Business In Suit Alleging Fraudulent $1.3 Million Ponzi SchemeThe Securities and Exchange Commission announced that on November 16, 2011, it charged a New Hampshire business directed by a Canadian resident with obtaining over $1.3 million from investors in a fraudulent Ponzi scheme. The SEC also announced that the U.S. District Court in New Hampshire has issued a temporary restraining order that, among other things, freezes the assets of the company and its principal and prohibits them from continuing to solicit or accept investor funds. In its complaint, the SEC alleges that Henry Roche through New Futures Trading International Corporation has since December 2010 raised over $1.3 million from at least 14 investors in nine states through the offer and sale of promissory notes purportedly yielding either 5-10% per month, or a 200% return within 14 months. Roche allegedly represented to some investors that funds supplied would be invested in bonds, Treasury notes and/or 10-year Treasury note futures contracts, and to others that the funds would be invested directly in New Futures, an on-line futures day-trading training business Roche was operating. The complaint alleges that, instead of using the funds for either purpose, Roche used approximately $937,000 provided by New Futures investors to make Ponzi “interest” payments to investors in prior Roche-controlled entities, including Masters Palace, Inc., and Third Realm Institute, and misappropriated at least another $359,000 to support his lifestyle and operate a horse breeding venture, Majestic Horses. The Commission acknowledges the assistance of the Ontario Securities Commission and the New Hampshire Bureau of Securities in this matter. [SEC v. New Futures Trading International Corporation and Henry Roche (Civil Action No. 11-CV-532-JL, USDC, DNH] (LR-22159) SEC Brings Emergency Action to Halt Fraudulent Scheme Offering Shares of Facebook and Other Pre-IPO CompaniesThe Securities and Exchange Commission announced that on November 17, 2011, it filed an emergency civil enforcement action to halt defendants’ fraudulent sale of securities of investment vehicles that claim to own coveted shares of companies like Facebook that are expected to conduct an initial public offering soon. Judge Kevin Castel of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York has issued a temporary restraining order that, among other things, freezes the assets of multiple defendants and relief defendants. According to the Commission’s complaint, Florida resident John A. Mattera and several other individuals carried out the fraud using a newly-minted hedge fund named The Praetorian Global Fund. They falsely claimed that the fund and affiliated Praetorian entities owned shares worth tens of millions of dollars in privately-held companies that were expected to soon hold an initial public offering, including Facebook, Groupon, and others. Mattera and others solicited investments by, among other things, telling investors that their funds would be safely held in escrow accounts. In reality, according to the SEC’s complaint filed in federal court in Manhattan, Mattera and his confederates never owned the promised pre-IPO shares in these companies. The purported escrow service, headed by defendant John R. Arnold of Florida, merely transferred investor funds to personal accounts controlled by Mattera and Arnold. After Arnold took a cut of the money for himself, he released the money to entities controlled by Mattera, who misappropriated investors’ funds for private jets, luxury cars, fine art, jewelry, and other personal uses. Mattera also transferred money to his mother Ann Mattera and his wife Lan Phan. They are named as relief defendants in the SEC’s complaint for the purpose of reclaiming investor funds unrightfully in their possession. The SEC’s complaint charges Mattera, Bradford Van Siclen, the Praetorian Fund, Praetorian G Power I LLC, Praetorian G Power II LLC, Praetorian G IV, Praetorian G Power V LLC, and Praetorian G Power VI LLC, Arnold, and First American Service Transmittals Inc. with violations, or aiding and abetting violations of, Section 17(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and Rule 10b-5. The complaint further charges Mattera, Van Siclen, the Praetorian G entities, Joseph Almazon, Spartan Capital Partners, and David Howard with violating Sections 5(a) and 5(c) of the Securities Act by engaging in the unregistered offering of securities, and Almazon and Spartan Capital with violations of Section 15(a) of the Exchange Act by acting as unregistered brokers. The SEC’s investigation is ongoing. [SEC v. John A. Mattera, Bradford Van Siclen, et al., Civil Action No. 11-CV-8323 (S.D.N.Y.)] On November 16, 2011, the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York filed a criminal complaint charging Mattera with securities fraud, wire fraud and money laundering. The SEC thanks the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York, Internal Revenue Service, and Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority for their assistance in this matter.
