Enforcement ProceedingsBrazilian Ex-Banker to Pay $5.1 Million for Insider Trading in Burger King StockThe Securities and Exchange Commission today announced insider trading charges against a Brazilian ex-banker for his role in a scheme to illegally trade Burger King securities. The SEC previously charged a Brazilian citizen working in the Miami office of Wells Fargo with tipping him the inside information. The SEC alleges that Igor Cornelsen and his firm through which he made trades – Bainbridge Group – reaped illicit profits of more than $1.68 million by trading Burger King options based on confidential information ahead of the company’s September 2010 announcement that it was being acquired by a New York private equity firm. Cornelsen is now a resident of the Bahamas with a home in South Florida after holding high-ranking positions at several banks in Brazil before his retirement. He sought inside information from his broker Waldyr Da Silva Prado Neto by sending him e-mails with such masked references as, “Is the sandwich deal going to happen?” Prado was stealing the inside information from another Wells Fargo brokerage customer involved in the Burger King deal. Cornelsen and Bainbridge Group agreed to pay more than $5.1 million to settle the SEC’s charges. The settlement is subject to court approval. The litigation continues against Prado, whose assets have been frozen by the court. “Cornelsen shamelessly prodded Prado for details on ‘the sandwich deal’ and Prado happily obliged to satisfy his customer’s appetite for inside information,” said Daniel M. Hawke, Chief of the SEC Enforcement Division’s Market Abuse Unit and Director of the Philadelphia Regional Office. Sanjay Wadhwa, Deputy Chief of the Market Abuse Unit and Associate Director of the New York Regional Office, added, “Foreign investors who access the U.S. capital markets must play by the rules and not rig the market in their favor, otherwise they face getting caught by the SEC and paying a hefty price as Cornelsen is here.” According to the SEC’s complaint filed today in federal court in Manhattan, Cornelsen became Prado’s customer in 2008. On May 17, 2010, Prado sent Cornelsen an e-mail written in Portuguese that translates to, “Igor, if you are around call me at the hotel … I have some info … You have to hear this.” Cornelsen called Prado at his hotel and they had a 10-minute conversation. Earlier that same day, Prado told a friend that he had knowledge of the impending Burger King deal. After talking with Prado, Cornelsen began trading out-of-the-money Burger King call options the very next day. Cornelsen had never previously traded Burger King securities. The SEC alleges that Cornelsen continued trading Burger King options over that summer despite losing money in some instances. In August, Cornelsen sent Prado e-mails seeking assurances that ‘the sandwich deal’ was going to happen, and Prado responded with such statements as “Yes it’s going to happen” and “Everything is 100% under control.” Cornelsen then purchased additional Burger King call options. Cornelsen took steps to minimize his connection to Prado by purchasing the Burger King call options in accounts held at brokerage firms other than where Prado worked. The SEC alleges that after the public announcement of the Burger King deal, Cornelsen e-mailed Prado to inquire about the acquisition price. Upon learning the new per share price that would yield him substantial illegal profits, Cornelsen e-mailed back, “Wow! What a day!” The SEC’s complaint charges Cornelsen and Bainbridge Group with violations of Sections 10(b) and 14(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rules 10b-5 and 14e-3. The proposed final judgment orders them to jointly and severally pay $1,681,090 in disgorgement and $136,620.96 in prejudgment interest. Cornelsen is ordered to pay a $3,362,180 penalty. They neither admit nor deny the SEC charges. The proposed final judgment also enjoins them from future violations of these provisions of the federal securities laws. The SEC’s investigation, which is continuing, has been conducted by Market Abuse Unit members Megan Bergstrom, David Brown, and Diana Tani in the Los Angeles office with assistance from Charles D. Riely in the New York office. The SEC appreciates the assistance of the Comissão de Valores Mobliliários (Securities and Exchange Commission of Brazil), the Options Regulatory Surveillance Authority (ORSA), and the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA). (Press Rel. 2012-248) In the Matter of Stephen P. AmellaThe United States Securities and Exchange Commission (Commission) announced the issuance of an Order Instituting Administrative Proceedings Pursuant to Section 15(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, Making Findings and Imposing Remedial Sanctions (Order) against Stephen P. Amella. The Order finds that Amella acted as an unregistered broker, and solicited prospective investors to purchase interests in a purported real estate joint venture operated by Titan Investment Partners Corp. and, on September 25, 2012, a judgment was entered against Amella, permanently enjoining him from, among other things, future violations of Section 15(a) of the Exchange Act, in a civil action entitled SEC v. Amella, et al., Civil Action Number 1:11-CV-6849, in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois. The Order further finds that the Complaint alleged that, without investigating the legitimacy of the purported real estate joint venture and the accuracy of his representations, Amella falsely informed investors that their funds would be used to purchase and develop real estate and that they would receive a guaranteed 10% monthly return on their investments. Based on the above, the Order bars Amella from association with any broker, dealer, investment adviser, municipal securities dealer, municipal advisor, transfer agent, or nationally recognized statistical rating organization, and also bars him from participating in any offering of a penny stock. Amella consented to the issuance of the Order without admitting or denying the findings in the Order, except he admitted the entry of the injunction. (Rel. 34-68327; File No. 3-15113) SEC v. John H. Pamplin, Jr.On November 29, 2012, the Securities and Exchange Commission charged John H. Pamplin, Jr. of Nashville, Tennessee with insider trading in the securities of TurboChef Technologies, Inc. (“TurboChef”). According to the complaint, Pamplin was the Chief Information Officer for Atlanta-based TurboChef until March 2008, when TurboChef terminated him. Through his relationships with current and former TurboChef employees, Pamplin gained access to material nonpublic information regarding TurboChef’s pending acquisition by The Middleby Corporation of Elgin, Illinois. The SEC alleges that Pamplin repeatedly pressed several of his former coworkers for information on the progress of the proposed acquisition and, based on the information he learned, liquidated more than 6,000 shares of TurboChef common stock and used those proceeds and most of his liquid assets to buy more than $100,000 of out-of-the-money TurboChef call options with near term expirations. Pamplin’s options trading resulted in a profit of $68,000─six times the profit he would have earned had he merely held his TurboChef common shares─when the shares rose in the wake of the August 12, 2008 acquisition announcement. The SEC’s complaint alleges that Pamplin violated Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 ("Exchange Act"), and Rule 10b-5 thereunder, which prohibit trading on the basis of material nonpublic information. The SEC is seeking permanent injunctive relief, disgorgement, prejudgment interest, and civil penalties. [SEC v. John H. Pamplin, Jr., Civil Action No. 1:12-CV-04136-JEC (U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Georgia)] (LR-22550) SEC Obtains Final Judgments in Case Involving Ponzi Scheme and Promotion of China Voice Holding Corp.The Commission today announced the entry of final judgments against Alex Dowlatshahi, Christopher Mills, and Robert Wilson, and their various entities. The Commission previously alleged that Dowlatshahi and Mills helped orchestrate a Ponzi scheme that benefited themselves, David Ronald Allen, and numerous companies affiliated with Allen, including China Voice Holding Corp. In addition, the Commission also alleged that Wilson conducted a blast fax campaign concerning China Voice, which was financed by two shareholders of China Voice at the same time that they sold millions of shares of the company. The final judgments permanently enjoin Dowlatshahi and Mills from violating Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Sections 5 and 17(a) of the Securities Act of 1933. The final judgment also orders Dowlatshahi: (i) with his company, Lucrative Enterprises Corp., to pay disgorgement and prejudgment interest of $317,860, and a civil penalty of $150,227; (ii) with his company, Synergetic Solutions LLC, to pay disgorgement and prejudgment interest of $26,484, and a civil penalty of $12,045; (iii) with his company, Integrity Driven Network Corp., to pay a civil penalty of $50,000; and (iv) with his company, Darius Assets Holding Corp., to pay disgorgement and prejudgment interest of $322,962. The final judgment orders Mills: (i) to pay disgorgement and prejudgment interest of $2,405, and a civil penalty of $2,165; (ii) with his company, Sleeping Bear LLC, to pay disgorgement and prejudgment interest of $124,857, and a civil penalty of $116,219; and (iii) with his company, Silver Summit Holdings LLC, to pay disgorgement and prejudgment interest of $20,015, and a civil penalty of $18,025. The final judgment against Wilson permanently enjoins him from violating Section 10(b) of the Exchange Act and Section 17(b) of the Securities Act. Wilson and his company, Strategic Capital, previously consented to the injunction to settle charges related to their role in conducting a blast fax campaign regarding China Voice Holding Corp. The final judgment orders Wilson and Strategic Capital to pay disgorgement and prejudgment interest of $764,886, and a civil penalty of $664,269. In addition, Wilson and his company, Green Horseshoe Holdings, Inc., were ordered to pay disgorgement and prejudgment interest of $73,067. The final judgment also permanently bars Wilson from participating in offerings of penny stocks. The final judgments were entered on November 26 and 29, 2012. [SEC v. David Ronald Allen, et al., Civil Action No. 3:11-CV-882-O (N.D. Tex.)] (LR-22551) SEC Files Fraud Charges Against China North East Petroleum Holdings Limited; Its CEO, President and Former Chairman; Its Founder and Former Director; and Its Vice President and SecretaryThe Securities and Exchange Commission today announced that, on November 29, 2012, the Commission filed fraud and other related charges against China North East Petroleum Holdings (CNEP); its CEO, President and former Chairman of the Board of Directors, Wang Hongjun (Wang); its founder, former director and Wang’s mother, Ju Guizhi (Ju); and its Vice President of Corporate Finance and Secretary, Jiang Chao. The Commission also named Wang’s wife, Sun Jishuang (Sun), and Jiang Chao’s father, Jiang Mingfu, as Relief Defendants to recover company monies that they improperly received. The Commission alleges that CNEP, Wang, Ju and Jiang Chao diverted offering proceeds to the personal accounts of corporate insiders and their immediate family members, and also engaged in fraudulent conduct in connection with at least 176 undisclosed transactions between the company and its insiders or their immediate family members, otherwise known as related-party transactions. The Commission alleges that CNEP, Wang, Ju and Jiang Chao violated the antifraud provisions of the securities laws, Section 17(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 10(b) of the Exchange Act of 1934 (Exchange Act) and Rule 10b-5. The Commission further alleges violations of reporting, recordkeeping and internal controls provisions of the securities laws, Sections 13(a), 13(b)(2)(A) & (B), and 13(b)(5) of the Securities Exchange Act and Rules 13a-1, 13a-11, 13a-13 and 13b2-1. The Commission is seeking: (i) permanent injunctive relief to prevent future violations of the federal securities laws, disgorgement of ill-gotten gains with prejudgment interest, and civil penalties from each Defendant; (ii) officer and director bars against Wang, Ju and Jiang Chao; and (iii) disgorgement from the Relief Defendants, Sun and Jiang Mingfu, of improperly received funds. [SEC v. China North East Petroleum Holdings Limited, et al., Case No. 12-CV-8696 (U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York)] (LR-22552) SEC Charges Westport, Connecticut Resident With Insider Trading in the Shares of Patriot Capital Funding, Inc.The Commission today charged a Connecticut-based business executive with insider trading ahead of the sale of Patriot Capital Funding Group based on nonpublic information he learned at the helm of a firm involved in the bidding process. The SEC alleges that I. Joseph Massoud, who founded investment advisory firm Compass Group Management, gained access to nonpublic information contained in an online “dataroom” where bidding companies could learn more about Patriot Capital’s financial condition. For access to the data, Compass Group had to enter into a confidentiality agreement that prohibited its employees from buying Patriot Capital stock. Nonetheless, Massoud purchased shares soon after Compass Group gained access to the confidential information, and he bought even more stock after he learned that Compass Group’s bid was what he described as “waaaaay off” compared to bids from other companies. Patriot Capital’s share price more than doubled after a merger was publicly announced, and Massoud realized more than $676,000 in illegal profits. According to the SEC’s complaint filed in federal court in Connecticut, Patriot Capital initiated a nonpublic bidding process in 2009 to entertain proposals for strategic investments and the possible sale of the company. In May 2009, Massoud directed Compass Group to execute a confidentiality agreement with Patriot Capital so it could participate in that process. After Compass Group was provided access to the online dataroom as part of the bidding process, a Compass Group analyst accessed the dataroom and provided various reports containing material, nonpublic information to Massoud. The SEC alleges that Massoud also learned nonpublic information about the value of bids received by Patriot Capital from other parties involved in the bidding process. On July 7, 2009, Massoud e-mailed others working on the Patriot Capital transaction at Compass Group and indicated that he had just talked with Patriot Capital’s CEO. He wrote that Compass Group was “waaaaay off” on its bid to acquire Patriot Capital, which according to the CEO had received several acquisition bids that were much higher than Compass Group’s offer. Massoud also learned from the CEO that Compass Group would have to increase its bid to match those higher proposals if it wanted to be considered. According to the SEC’s complaint, Massoud bought 322,216 shares of Patriot Capital stock in transactions spread across 15 different trading days from May to July. Massoud purchased more than half of those shares after July 7 when Patriot Capital’s CEO confidentially told him about other higher bids to acquire Patriot Capital. On August 3, 2009, Patriot Capital publicly announced a merger with Prospect Capital Corporation. On August 25, after Patriot Capital had been acquired and its stock price had increased significantly, Massoud sold all of his Patriot Capital stock. The SEC alleges that Massoud violated Section 10(b) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 thereunder and that his profits constitute ill-gotten gains. Massoud agreed to pay disgorgement of $676,013, prejudgment interest of $80,785, and a penalty of $676,013. He agreed to be enjoined from violating Section 10(b) and Rule 10b-5 in the future, and he will be barred from serving as a public company officer or director and from being associated with any broker, dealer, investment adviser, municipal securities dealer, municipal adviser, transfer agent, or national recognized statistical rating organization. He also will be barred from participating in any penny stock offering. The SEC’s investigation was conducted by James Fay, Deena Bernstein, and Kevin Kelcourse in the Boston Regional Office. The SEC acknowledges the assistance of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA). [SEC v. I.
