Commission AnnouncementsDavid Grim Named Deputy Director of Commission’s Division of Investment ManagementThe Securities and Exchange Commission today announced that David Grim has been appointed Deputy Director of its Division of Investment Management. Mr. Grim has worked in the division for 17 years, most recently as Assistant Chief Counsel in its Office of Chief Counsel, and has received several awards for his legal and managerial work. “We are pleased to welcome Dave to his new role as Deputy Director of the Division of Investment Management. He brings intellectual curiosity and extensive management experience, and is committed to our program of making the division an organization that grows through continuous improvement,” said Norm Champ, Director of the Division of Investment Management. Mr. Grim joined the SEC in September 1995 as a Staff Attorney in the division’s Office of Investment Company Regulation. In January 1998, he moved to the division’s Office of Chief Counsel, where he has served in a variety of positions, including since September 2007 as Assistant Chief Counsel. Mr. Grim received the SEC Capital Markets Award in 2005, the SEC Supervisory Excellence Award in 2007, and the SEC Law and Policy Award in 2011. “I am honored to have the opportunity to work with Norm and my dedicated colleagues in the division to carry out our vitally important mission on behalf of investors,” Mr. Grim said. Mr. Grim graduated cum laude with a degree in Political Science from Duke University and received his law degree from George Washington University, where he was Managing Editor of the George Washington Journal of International Law and Economics. The SEC’s Division of Investment Management works to protect investors, promote informed investment decisions, and facilitate innovation in investment products and services through regulation of the asset management industry. (Press Rel. 2013-5) Commission Names Gregg E. Berman as Associate Director of the Office of Analytics and ResearchThe Commission today announced that Gregg E. Berman has been named Associate Director of the Office of Analytics and Research in the SEC’s Division of Trading and Markets. Mr. Berman has been a senior advisor to the Director of the Division of Trading and Markets since June 2010, and joined the SEC staff in October 2009 as a senior advisor in the Division of Risk, Strategy, and Financial Innovation. In his new role, Mr. Berman will oversee the office established in 2012 to conduct research and analysis that will help inform the Commission’s policies on markets and market structure. “Gregg’s analytical expertise and market background make him a tremendous asset for our new Office of Analytics and Research,” said John Ramsay, Acting Director of the Division of Trading and Markets. “In his time at the SEC, Gregg has worked on many complex issues, including an analysis of the causes of the May 6, 2011, ‘flash crash,’ on rulemaking to create a Consolidated Audit Trail, and on the many new rules for derivatives trading required by the Dodd-Frank Act.” “I am excited to take on these new responsibilities and honored to have the opportunity to continue working with such a talented and dedicated set of colleagues, both within the division and across the entire SEC,” said Mr. Berman. “Though the markets may be complex, they are not impenetrable, and I am confident in our abilities to continue developing data-driven analyses to inform policy.” The new office will provide expertise in quantitative data analysis, trading, portfolio management, and risk management, and will examine a wide variety of topics, ranging from market structure to new products and rule filings by exchanges. The use of data analysis to help inform the Commission’s policy decisions is central to the office’s mission and will be aided by the SEC’s recent acquisition of an advanced market data system, which will for the first time allow the staff to analyze trading using the same tools and technologies used by some of today’s most sophisticated market participants. Before coming to the SEC, Mr. Berman was a co-founding partner of New York-based RiskMetrics Group, which focuses on risk management, corporate governance, and financial research and analysis. Mr. Berman served in various roles during his 11 years at the firm, most recently as the head of its global risk business. Mr. Berman holds a bachelor’s degree in physics from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and doctorate in physics from Princeton University. (Press Rel. 2013-6) Enforcement ProceedingsCommission Orders Hearing on Registration Suspension or Revocation against Six Public Companies for Failure to Make Required Periodic FilingsThe Commission instituted public administrative proceedings to determine whether to revoke or suspend for a period not exceeding twelve months the registrations of each class of the securities of six companies for failure to make required periodic filings with the Commission:
In this Order, the Division of Enforcement (Division) alleges that the six issuers are delinquent in their required periodic filings with the Commission. In this proceeding, instituted pursuant to Exchange Act Section 12(j), a hearing will be scheduled before an Administrative Law Judge. At the hearing, the Administrative Law Judge will hear evidence from the Division and the Respondents to determine whether the allegations of the Division contained in the Order, which the Division alleges constitute failures to comply with Exchange Act Section 13(a) and Rules 13a-1 and 13a-13 thereunder, are true. The Administrative Law Judge in the proceeding will then determine whether the registrations pursuant to Exchange Act Section 12 of each class of the securities of these Respondents should be revoked or suspended for a period not exceeding twelve months. The Commission ordered that the Administrative Law Judge in this proceeding issue an initial decision not later than 120 days from the date of service of the order instituting proceedings.

Scucci, et al., Case No. 6:12-cv-646-RBD-KRS (M.D. Fla.)] (LR-22592) Commission Settles with Four Defendants in Sedona Corporation Market Manipulation FraudThe Commission announced that on December 19, 2012, the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York entered settled final judgments against defendants Andreas Badian, Jeffrey “Danny” Graham, Pond Securities Corporation (Pond), and Ezra Birnbaum in a Commission injunctive action arising from fraudulent manipulative trading in the securities of Sedona Corporation. Securities and Exchange Commission v. Andreas Badian, et al., Civ. Action. No. 06 CV 2621 (LTS) (S.D.N.Y. filed Apr. 4, 2006). Without admitting or denying the allegations in the Commission's complaint, the defendants consented to the following relief: Badian consented to the entry of a judgment enjoining him from future violations of the antifraud provisions of the federal securities laws and ordering him to pay disgorgement of ill-gotten gains of $375,000, and a civil penalty of $75,000; Graham consented to the entry of a judgment ordering him to pay a civil penalty of $25,000; Pond consented to the entry of a judgment enjoining it from future violations of: the antifraud and broker-dealer record-keeping provisions of the federal securities laws; the provisions prohibiting a broker or dealer from allowing unassociated persons to effect securities transactions; the NASD rule requiring supervision of persons associated with an NASD member firm; and a Commission Order requiring sworn written responses to certain inquiries from the Commission, and ordering it to pay disgorgement of ill-gotten gains of $8,000, together with $14,822.38 in prejudgment interest thereon, and a civil penalty of $177,177.62; and Birnbaum consented to the entry of a judgment enjoining him from future violations of the NASD rule requiring supervision of persons associated with an NASD member firm. The Commission's complaint alleged that, from February to April 2001, Badian, Graham, Pond, and others participated in a scheme to manipulate Sedona’s stock price. The complaint also alleged that Graham and others aided and abetted violations of the broker-dealer record-keeping requirements through the creation of trade tickets which falsely reported short sales of Sedona stock as “long” sales, and that Pond, Birnbaum, and defendant Shaye Hirsch violated NASD Conduct Rules by failing to supervise brokers at Pond. On December 20, 2012, pursuant to its approval of the parties’ stipulation of voluntary dismissal, the court entered an order dismissing all claims by the Commission against Hirsch. Defendants Jacob Spinner and Mottes Drillman had settled previously with the Commission. Accordingly, the civil action has been resolved in its entirety. [Securities and Exchange Commission v. Andreas Badian, et al., Civ. Action. No. 06 CV 2621 (LTS) (S.D.N.Y. filed Apr. 4, 2006)] (LR-22593) Commission Obtains Significant Relief In Summary Judgment Win Against Defendants Charged With Defrauding Investors In Fictitious OfferingsThe Commission announced that on December 17, 2012, the United States District Court for the Central District of California granted the Commission’s motion for summary judgment against all defendants and relief defendants in a civil action arising from two “prime bank” or “high yield” investment schemes that defrauded investors out of more than $11 million. In addition to permanently enjoining Francis E. Wilde, Steven E. Woods, Mark A. Gelazela, Bruce H. Haglund, and entities they control, from violations of the antifraud and other securities law provisions, the judgment also orders the defendants to pay disgorgement and civil penalties and bars Wilde and Haglund from acting as an officer or director of a public company. In addition, a separate judgment issued by the court orders relief defendants IBalance LLC, Maureen Wilde, and Shillelagh Capital Corporation to pay disgorgement of illegally obtained profits. The Commission’s complaint, filed on February 24, 2011, alleged that Wilde, through his company Matrix Holdings LLC, orchestrated two fraudulent investment schemes. The first scheme began in April 2008 when Wilde obtained a U.S. Treasury bond with a market value of nearly $5 million from an investor by making false and misleading promises of outsized returns from what he claimed was a “private placement program.” Wilde eventually exhausted all of the funds obtained with the investor’s bond and never produced a return for the investor. The Commission further claimed that, beginning in October 2009, Wilde concocted another fraudulent scheme with Woods and Gelazela in the form of a “bank guarantee funding” program using the services of Haglund as escrow attorney. Between October 2009 and mid-March 2010, Woods (through BMW Majestic LLC) and Gelazela (through IDLYC Holdings Trust (IDLYC) and IDLYC Holdings Trust LLC (IDLYC LLC)) signed contracts with 24 investors who sent over $6.3 million to Haglund’s trust account. Wilde never successfully acquired or leased a single legitimate financial instrument and exhausted all $6.3 million of the investors’ funds, much of which was taken by the defendants in the form of undisclosed fees. The judgment permanently enjoins Wilde, Woods, Gelazela, Matrix, BMW Majestic, IDLYC, and IDLYC LLC from violating Sections 5 and 17(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 and Sections 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (Exchange Act) and Rule 10b-5 thereunder; Woods and Gelazela from violating Section 15(a)(1) of the Exchange Act; and Haglund from violating Section 10(b) of the Exchange Act and Rule 10b-5 thereunder.
