Commission announcementsCommission Suspends Trading in the Securities of North China Horticulture, Inc. for Failure to Make Required Periodic FilingsThe Securities and Exchange Commission (Commission) announced the temporary suspension of trading in the securities of North China Horticulture, Inc. (IDCX), commencing at 9:30 a.m. EDT on September 6, 2013 and terminating at 11:59 p.m. EDT on September 19, 2013. The Commission temporarily suspended trading in the securities of IDCX due to a lack of current and accurate information about the company because it has not filed periodic reports with the Commission in over two years. This order was entered pursuant to Section 12(k) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (Exchange Act). The Commission cautions brokers, dealers, shareholders and prospective purchasers that they should carefully consider the foregoing information along with all other currently available information and any information subsequently issued by this company. Brokers and dealers should be alert to the fact that, pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 15c2-11, at the termination of the trading suspension, no quotation may be entered relating to the securities of the subject company unless and until the broker or dealer has strictly complied with all of the provisions of the rule. If any broker or dealer is uncertain as to what is required by the rule, it should refrain from entering quotations relating to the securities of this company that have been subject to a trading suspension until such time as it has familiarized itself with the rule and is certain that all of its provisions have been met. Any broker or dealer with questions regarding the rule should contact the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission in Washington, DC at (202) 551-5720. If any broker or dealer enters any quotation which is in violation of the rule, the Commission will consider the need for prompt enforcement action. If any broker, dealer or other person has any information which may relate to this matter, they should immediately communicate it to the Delinquent Filings Branch of the Division of Enforcement at (202) 551-5466, or by e-mail at DelinquentFilings@sec.gov. (Rel. 34-70334) ENFORCEMENT PROCEEDINGSCommission Charges Former Vice President of Investor Relations with Violating Fair Disclosure RulesThe Commission today charged the former head of investor relations for a Tempe, Ariz.-based solar energy company with violating rules requiring fair disclosure of information when he alerted certain analysts and investors about an upcoming major development. Regulation FD requires material nonpublic information to be disclosed publicly in a broad manner and not selectively. An SEC investigation determined that Lawrence D. Polizzotto, a former vice president at First Solar Inc., violated Regulation FD when he indicated in phone conversations with some analysts and investors that the company was unlikely to receive a much-anticipated loan guarantee from the U.S. Department of Energy. When First Solar broadly disclosed this material information in a press release the next morning, its stock price dropped 6 percent. Polizzotto agreed to pay $50,000 to settle the SEC's charges. "Polizzotto offered previously undisclosed information to select analysts and institutional investors and left the rest of First Solar's investors in the dark," said Michele Wein Layne, Director of the SEC's Los Angeles Office. "All investors, regardless of their size or relationship with the company, are entitled to the same information at the same time." According to the SEC's order instituting a settled administrative proceeding, Polizzotto attended an investor conference on Sept. 13, 2011, with First Solar's then-CEO, who publicly expressed confidence that the company would receive three loan guarantees totaling approximately $4.5 billion for which the company had received conditional commitments from the Energy Department. However, two days later, Polizzotto and several other executives learned that the company would not be receiving at least one of the loan guarantees. A group of employees including Polizzotto and one of First Solar's in-house lawyers began discussing how and when the company should publicly disclose the loss of the loan guarantee. The company lawyer specifically noted that when the company received official notice from the Energy Department, "we would not have to issue a press release or post something to our website the same day. We would, though, be restricted by Regulation FD in any [sic] answering questions asked by analysts, investors, etc. until such time that we do issue a press release or post to our website…" According to the SEC's order, Polizzotto violated Regulation FD during one-on-one phone conversations with approximately 20 sell-side analysts and institutional investors on Sept. 21, 2011 - the day after a Congressional committee sent a letter to the Energy Department inquiring about its loan guarantee program and the status of conditional commitments, including three involving First Solar. This Congressional line of inquiry caused concern within the solar industry about whether the Energy Department would be able to move forward with its conditional commitments. Analysts began issuing research reports about the Congressional inquiry, and analysts and investors began calling Polizzotto. Despite knowing that the company had not yet publicly disclosed anything, Polizzotto drafted several talking points that effectively signaled that First Solar would not receive one of the three loan guarantees. His talking points emphasized the high probability of receiving two of the loan guarantees and the low probability of receiving the third. Polizzotto delivered his talking points in the one-on-one calls with analysts and institutional investors, and he directed a subordinate to do the same. Polizzotto went even further than his talking points when he told at least one analyst and one institutional investor that if they wanted to be conservative, they should assume that First Solar would not receive one of the loan guarantees. Polizzotto agreed to settle the SEC's charges without admitting or denying the findings. In addition to the $50,000 penalty, he agreed to cease and desist from causing any violations and any future violations of Regulation FD and Section 13(a) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934. The SEC has determined not to bring an enforcement action against First Solar due to the company's extraordinary cooperation with the investigation among several other factors. Prior to Polizzotto's selective disclosure on September 21, First Solar cultivated an environment of compliance through the use of a disclosure committee that focused on compliance with Regulation FD. The company immediately discovered Polizzotto's selective disclosure and promptly issued a press release the next morning before the market opened. First Solar then quickly self-reported the misconduct to the SEC. Concurrent with the SEC's investigation, First Solar undertook remedial measures to address the improper conduct. For example, the company conducted additional Regulation FD training for employees responsible for public disclosure. The SEC's investigation was conducted by Marc Blau and Sara Kalin of the Los Angeles Regional Office. (Press Rel. 2013-174; Rel. 34-70337) Commission Sanctions Investment Adviser for Best Execution FailuresOn September 6, 2013, the Commission issued an order instituting settled administrative proceedings against Ralph A. Saviano, who conducted business as an investment adviser and was associated with a dually registered investment adviser and broker-dealer as an independent contractor. On June 5, 2013, Saviano pled guilty in U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey to one count of wire fraud in violation of 18 U.S.C. Section 1343 in connection with his conduct as an investment adviser. In addition to pleading guilty to wire fraud involving two former clients, Saviano agreed to a sentencing guideline offense level that results in a guideline range between 27 and 33 months, the entry of a forfeiture money judgment in the amount of $699,926.51 and an order of restitution for the same amount. In the Order, the Commission barred Saviano from (i) association with any broker, dealer, investment adviser, municipal securities dealer, municipal advisor, transfer agent, or nationally recognized statistical rating organization, and (ii) participating in any offering of a penny stock, including: acting as a promoter, finder, consultant, agent or other person who engages in activities with a broker, dealer or issuer for purposes of the issuance or trading in any penny stock, or inducing or attempting to induce the purchase or sale of any penny stock. (Rel. 34-70338) Commission Orders Hearings on Registration Suspension or Revocation against North China Horticulture, Inc. for Failure to Make Required Periodic FilingsIn conjunction with this trading suspension, the Commission today also instituted public administrative proceedings to determine whether to revoke or suspend for a period not exceeding twelve months the registration of each class of the securities of North China Horticulture, Inc. (IDCX) for failure to make required periodic filings with the Commission: In this Order, the Division of Enforcement (Division) alleges that IDCX is delinquent in its 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 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 judge in the proceeding will then determine whether the registration pursuant to Exchange Act Section 12 of each class of the securities of this Respondent 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. In the Matter of North China Horticulture, Inc., Administrative Proceeding File No. 3-15457. (Rel. 34-70333) In the Matter of David G. BartholomewOn September 6, 2013 the Commission issued 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 David G. Bartholomew. The Order finds that Bartholomew was enjoined from future violations of Sections 5(a), 5(c), and 17(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, Sections 10(b) and 15(a) of the Exchange Act and Rule 10b-5 thereunder, in the civil action entitled SEC v. Mowen, et al., Case No. 2:09-cv-00786-DB (D. UT). The Order further finds that the Commission's complaint in SEC v. Mowen alleged, among other things, that Bartholomew offered and sold purported high-yield promissory notes to investors using private placement memoranda that falsely stated that all the investors' funds were being used to make collateralized domestic real estate and small business loans. Bartholomew's private placement memoranda also falsely represented that Bartholomew would perform due diligence on the purported investment opportunity, when in fact he performed virtually none. Contrary to the representations made to investors, the majority of funds raised were given to Thomas R. Fry, who funneled them to Jeffrey L. Mowen, a convicted felon and securities law recidivist who was operating a Ponzi scheme. While engaging in these securities sales, Bartholomew was not registered as broker-dealer nor associated with a registered broker dealer. Based on the above, the Order bars Bartholomew from association with any broker, dealer, investment adviser, municipal securities dealer, municipal advisor, transfer agent, or nationally recognized statistical rating organization, and from participating in any offering of a penny stock. Bartholomew consented to the issuance of the Order without admitting or denying the findings in the Order except he admitted the entry of the judgment against him. (Rel. 34-70340) In the Matter of Timothy M. McGinn and David L. SmithThe Commission announced the issuance of an Order Instituting Administrative Proceedings Pursuant to Section 15(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Section 203(f) of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 and Notice of Hearing against Timothy M. McGinn and David L. Smith. In the Order, the Division of Enforcement (Division) alleges that McGinn and Smith were the founders and primary owners of McGinn, Smith & Co., Inc. (MS & Co.), a broker-dealer based in Albany, NY. McGinn and Smith were registered from 1981 through August 20102, and were associated with MS & Co. during that time. McGinn and Smith were also indirect owners of McGinn Smith Advisors, LLC, which was registered with the Commission as an investment advisor from January 2006 to April 2009. On February 6, 2013, following a four-week trial in United States v. David L. Smith and Timothy M. McGinn, 12-cr-0028 (N.D.N.Y.) (DNH), a jury in the United States District Court for the Northern District of New York found McGinn and Smith guilty on multiple counts charged in the Superseding Indictment, including conspiracy to commit mail and wire fraud, mail fraud, wire fraud, securities fraud and filing a false tax return. On August 13, 2013, the Court entered judgments against McGinn and Smith. McGinn was sentenced to a prison term of 180 months, and ordered to pay a fine of $100,000 and restitution of $5,992,800. Smith was sentenced a prison term of 120 months, and ordered to pay a fine of $50,000 and restitution of $5,989,726. The counts of the Superseding Indictment to which McGinn and Smith were found guilty alleged, among other things, that through various securities offerings from 2006 through 2009 they devised schemes to defraud investors, made misrepresentations and omissions in private placement memoranda, and misused investor funds. A hearing will be scheduled before an administrative law judge to determine whether the allegations contained in the Order are true, to provide McGinn and Smith an opportunity to dispute the allegations, and to determine what, if any, remedial action is appropriate and in the public interest. The Order requires the Administrative Law Judge to issue an initial decision no later than 210 days from the date of service of the Order pursuant to Rule 360(a)(2) of the Commission's Rules of Practice. For more information about this matter, please see Press Release No. 2010-62 (Apr. 20, 2010). (Rel. 34-70341) In the Matter of John A. PiciniThe Commission announced the issuance of an Order Instituting Administrative Proceedings Pursuant to Section 203(f) of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, Making Findings, and Imposing Remedial Sanctions (Order) against John A. Picini, a resident of North Attleboro, Massachusetts. The Order finds that on April 3, 2013, Picini pled guilty to five counts of mail fraud and three counts of tax evasion before the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts in U.S. v. John A. Picini, No. 13-CR-10061 (D. Mass). The Order further finds that the counts of the criminal information to which Picini pled guilty alleged that Picini advised clients to liquidate retirement funds that were invested in annuities or other tax deferred investment vehicles and to reinvest the funds in purported investment accounts supposedly managed by Picini. Contrary to his representations, he used his clients' funds to pay his personal expenses. Based on the above, the Order bars Picini from association with any broker, dealer, investment adviser, municipal securities dealer, municipal advisor, transfer agent, or nationally recognized statistical rating organization. Picini consented to the issuance of the Order. (Rel. 34-70344) In the Matter of Victor Manuel Rivera, Jr.The Commission announced the issuance of an Order Instituting Administrative Proceedings Pursuant to Section 15(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Section 203(f) of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, Making Findings, and Imposing Remedial Sanctions (Order) against Victor Manuel Rivera, Jr., a resident of Clifton, New Jersey. The Order finds that, on Feb. 28, 2012, Rivera pled guilty to one count of wire fraud before the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey, in United States v. Victor Manuel Rivera, Jr., 2:12-cr-00150-WJM (D.N.J.). The Order further finds that the count of the criminal information to which Rivera pled guilty alleged that from October 2008 through October 2010, Rivera defrauded investors and obtained money and property by means of materially false and misleading statements, and that he transmitted by wire funds in interstate commerce from the defrauded investors without their knowledge or authorization, to a bank account Rivera controlled. Based on the above, the Order bars Rivera from association with any broker, dealer, investment adviser, municipal securities dealer, municipal advisor, transfer agent, or nationally recognized statistical rating organization and from participating in any offering of a penny stock, including acting as a promoter, finder, consultant, agent or other person who engages in activities with a broker, dealer or issuer for purposes of the issuance or trading in any penny stock, or inducing or attempting to induce the purchase or sale of any penny stock. Rivera consented to the issuance of the Order. (Rel. 34-70343) Self-regulatory organizationsImmediate Effectiveness of Proposed Rule ChangeThe Chicago Mercantile Exchange Inc.
