ENFORCEMENT PROCEEDINGSCommission Charges Whittier Trust and Fund Manager in Insider Trading Investigation into Expert NetworksThe Securities and Exchange Commission (Commission) today charged a South Pasadena, Calif.-based wealth management company and a former fund manager with insider trading on non-public information about technology companies. The charges are the agency's latest in its ongoing investigation into expert networks and hedge fund trading. The SEC alleges that Whittier Trust Company and fund manager Victor Dosti participated in an insider trading scheme involving the securities of Dell, Nvidia Corporation, and Wind River Systems. Dosti generated profits and avoided losses for funds he managed at Whittier Trust by trading on confidential information that he obtained from Danny Kuo, a Whittier Trust fund manager who Dosti supervised. Kuo was charged by the SEC in January 2012 and is currently cooperating with the investigation. Whittier Trust and Dosti agreed to pay nearly $1.7 million to settle the charges. "Time and again, Dosti received what he knew was inside information from Kuo and traded on it to generate illicit gains for the funds he managed," said Sanjay Wadhwa, Senior Associate Director of the SEC's New York Regional Office. "Now, he and Whittier Trust join a long list of insider trading perpetrators who have been held accountable by the SEC for their transgressions." The SEC has charged more than three dozen individuals and firms in enforcement actions arising out of its expert networks investigation, which has uncovered widespread insider trading at several hedge funds and other investment advisory firms. The first series of charges were brought in 2011. According to the SEC's complaint filed in U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, Dosti used non-public information obtained from employees at Dell and Nvidia to trade in advance of five quarterly earnings announcements in 2008, 2009 and 2010. Dosti reaped profits and avoided losses of more than $475,000 for Whittier Trust funds. Dosti also made $247,000 in illicit profits for Whittier Trust funds by trading Wind River stock based upon detailed information that Kuo obtained from an Intel employee about Intel's confidential negotiations to acquire Wind River in 2009. The SEC's complaint charges Whittier Trust and Dosti with violating Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5, and Section 17(a) of the Securities Act of 1933. Whittier Trust agreed to pay disgorgement of $724,051.62 plus prejudgment interest of $75,296.00 and a penalty of $724,051.62. Dosti agreed to pay disgorgement of $77,900.00 plus prejudgment interest of $2,951.43, and a penalty of $77,900.00. The settlements are subject to court approval and would permanently enjoin Whittier Trust and Dosti from future violations of the antifraud provisions of the federal securities laws. Whittier Trust and Dosti neither admit nor deny the SEC's charges. The SEC acknowledges the cooperation of Whittier Trust in the investigation. The SEC's investigation has been conducted by Stephen Larson, Daniel Marcus and Joseph Sansone – members of the SEC's Market Abuse Unit in New York – and Matthew Watkins, Justin Smith, Neil Hendelman, Diego Brucculeri, and James D'Avino of the New York Regional Office. The case has been supervised by Sanjay Wadhwa. The SEC appreciates the assistance of the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Southern District of New York and the Federal Bureau of Investigation. (Press Rel. 2013-105) China Natural Gas and Executive Settle Fraud ChargesThe Commission today announced that on June 5, 2013, the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York entered settled final judgments as to defendants China-based China Natural Gas Inc. and its chairman and former CEO Qinan Ji. The defendants have agreed to pay penalties to settle fraud charges the SEC brought against them last year for secretly loaning company funds to benefit Ji's son and nephew while failing to disclose the true nature of the loans. As alleged in the SEC's complaint filed on May 14, 2012, China Natural Gas failed to disclose in 2010 the related-party nature of two loans totaling $14.3 million, which were made to benefit a real estate company that was 90 percent owned by Ji's son and 10 percent owned by Ji's nephew. Ji approved both loans without obtaining prior authorization from the board or informing the CFO, and he repeatedly lied to the board, the auditors, investors, and the company's internal investigators to conceal the related-party nature of the loans. The SEC also alleged that in the fourth quarter of 2008, China Natural Gas paid $19.6 million to acquire a natural gas company, but did not timely and properly report the transaction in its SEC filings. To settle the SEC's charges, China Natural Gas agreed to pay a penalty of $815,000, and Ji agreed to pay a penalty of $100,000. Ji also agreed to reimburse China Natural Gas his trading profit of $77,479. China Natural Gas consented to the entry of a final judgment enjoining it from violating Section 17(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, Sections 13(a), 13(b)(2)(A), 13(b)(2)(B) and 14(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Exchange Act Rules 12b-20, 13a-1, 13a-11, 13a-13 and 14a-9. Ji consented to the entry of a final judgment enjoining him from violating Section 17(a) of the Securities Act, Sections 10(b), 13(b)(5) and 14(a) of the Exchange Act and Exchange Act Rules 10b-5, 13a-14, 13b2-1, 13b2-2 and 14a-9, and Section 304 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, and from aiding and abetting violations of Sections 13(a), 13(b)(2)(A) and 13(b)(2)(B) of the Exchange Act and Exchange Act Rules 12b-20, 13a-1, 13a-11 and 13a-13, barring him from serving as an officer or director of a public company for 10 years. [SEC v. China Natural Gas, Inc. and Qinan Ji, 12-cv-3824 (S.D.N.Y.) (PGG)) (June 5, 2013)] (LR-22719) Commission Charges Former Officer of InterMune, Inc. with Insider TradingOn June 6, 2013, the Commission charged Bruce W. Tomlinson, the former vice president of finance, principal accounting officer, and controller of InterMune, Inc., a pharmaceutical company based in Brisbane, California, with having tipped his friend and former business associate, Michael Sarkesian, about material nonpublic information concerning the progress of InterMune's application before a European Union regulatory body to market its drug Esbriet in the EU. According to the Commission's complaint filed in the U.S. District Court in the Northern District of California, in March 2010, InterMune submitted its marketing application to the European Medicines Agency. The complaint further alleges that an EMA advisory subcommittee, the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP), began assessing the application and communicating with InterMune. By mid-November 2010, in the course of his employment, Tomlinson allegedly had become privy to material non-public information about the increasing probability that the CHMP would render a positive opinion and faster than had been publicly anticipated by InterMune. The complaint alleges that on November 17, 2010, Tomlinson emailed Sarkesian that, amongst other things, the European regulatory review process appeared "to be moving faster and better" than anticipated and that this impacted on "Company wide strategic decisions." On the basis of that information, Sarkesian allegedly directed the purchase of 400 out-of-the-money call options on InterMune common stock through a brokerage account held in the name of Quorne Limited in advance of a December 17, 2010 announcement that the CHMP had rendered a positive opinion. The price of the options increased over 500% on the news, resulting in $616,000 in alleged imputed profits. Without admitting or denying the allegations of the complaint, Tomlinson has consented to entry of a final judgment permanently enjoining him from further violations of Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 thereunder, prohibiting him from serving as an officer or director of a public company for a period of five years, and ordering him to pay a civil penalty of $616,000. Based on the anticipated entry of a final judgment, Tomlinson has also consented to the issuance of an order in a separate administrative proceeding pursuant to which he would be suspended under Rule 102(e)(3) of the Commission's Rules of Practice from appearing or practicing before the Commission as an accountant with a right to apply for reinstatement after five years. A consent judgment was previously entered against Sarkesian and Quorne Limited pursuant to which, amongst other things, the defendants, without admitting or denying the Commission's allegations, were ordered to disgorge $616,000. SEC v. Quorne Limited and Michael Sarkesian, 10-cv-9560 (GBD) (S.D.N.Y)/Lit. Rel. No. 22312 (March 30, 2012). The Commission acknowledges the assistance of the Options Regulatory Surveillance Authority, the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority, the Cyprus Securities and Exchange Commission, and the British Virgin Islands Financial Services Commission. The Commission's investigation is continuing. [SEC v. Bruce W. Tomlinson, Case No. CV 13-2549 (RWW) (N.D. Cal.)
