ENFORCEMENT PROCEEDINGS
DELINQUENT FILERS STOCK REGISTRATION REVOKED
The registrations of the stock of Aurora Acquisitions, Inc., HDF,
Inc., Inmold, Inc., and Piccard Medical Corp. have been revoked. None
had filed any annual or quarterly reports with the Securities and
Exchange Commission for seven or more years. Thus, each violated a
crucial provision of the federal securities laws that requires public
corporations to publicly disclose current, accurate financial
information so that investors may make informed decisions. The
revocations were ordered in an administrative proceeding before an
administrative law judge. (Rel. 34-56648; File No. 3-12754)
COMMISSION SANCTIONS JAMES E. FRANKLIN
The Commission has sanctioned James E. Franklin, a penny stock
promoter. Franklin was enjoined from violations of the antifraud
provisions of the federal securities laws by the U.S. District Court
for the Southern District of California. The district court entered
the injunction on the basis of a jury's verdict that Franklin
knowingly violated the antifraud provisions of the federal securities
laws in connection with the offer, purchase, or sale of seven stocks,
one of which was a penny stock. On the basis of this injunction, the
Commission barred Franklin from participating in any offering of penny
stock. The Commission found that Franklin's conduct was egregious and
occurred over many months. The Commission concluded that barring
Franklin from participating in any offering of penny stock was
necessary to protect the interests of the investing public and as a
deterrent to Franklin and others engaged in the offering of penny
stock from violating the federal securities laws. (Rel. 34-56649; File
No. 3-12228)
SEC OBTAINS $10.5 MILLION JUDGMENT AGAINST HSBC BANK IN SETTLED CIVIL
ACTION
The Commission announced today that on Sept. 25, 2007, the District
Court for the Southern District of Florida entered a Final Judgment in
its settled civil action against HSBC Bank USA, N.A. (HSBC), imposing
a $10 million penalty and ordering HSBC to pay disgorgement in the
amount of $463,893, with prejudgment interest of $36,667, for allowing
its name and logo to be used in connection with a Florida-based
offering fraud by Pension Fund of America, L.C. (Pension Fund). The
Commission's civil action was filed on Sept. 19, 2007, to coincide
with the Commission's institution of a settled cease-and-desist
proceeding with HSBC.
The Commission's complaint alleges that from August 2003 to March
2005, HSBC served as trustee for the investment component of Pension
Fund and its affiliated entities' trust plans. Since at least 1999,
Pension Fund sold retirement and college "trust plans" that
purportedly provided term life insurance and the opportunity to invest
in one or more pre-selected mutual funds. However, Pension Fund failed
to disclose, among other things, that it was taking up to 95 percent
of the investors' funds to pay commissions and fees. Pension Fund
raised at least $127 million from more than 3,400 investors, primarily
from Central and South America. On March 28, 2005, the SEC filed an
emergency action in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District
of Florida against Pension Fund and its principals to halt the
offering fraud. The Court appointed a receiver over Pension Fund, who
shut down its operations, marshaled its assets, and developed a claims
process to distribute recovered funds to its investor victims.
According to the Commission's complaint, HSBC allowed the use of its
name and logo in Pension Fund's offering materials. HSBC also allowed
Pension Fund to use marketing materials that falsely suggested that
the trust plans were co-developed by HSBC and Pension Fund, and that
investors' funds would be "totally safe" because the money would be
deposited in a trust account at HSBC. In reality, Pension Fund
deposited investors' funds in an ordinary checking account in its name
at HSBC, and used up to 95 percent of such funds to pay its own
undisclosed sales commissions, expenses and fees. Pension Funds'
marketing brochures provided a list of mutual funds offered as part of
the trust plans, but did not disclose any information about the sales
commissions, administrative expenses, or the front-load mutual fund
fees charged to investors. HSBC failed to follow its own internal
procedures in reviewing and approving certain Pension Fund offering
materials.
Additionally, HSBC actively participated in the selection of offshore,
high front-load mutual funds to be offered to prospective investors
under a negotiated fee arrangement between HSBC and Pension Fund.
However, neither the amount of the funds' sales loads, nor HSBC's role
in the funds' selection, were disclosed to investors. In October 2003,
shortly after HSBC became trustee for Pension Fund's plans, HSBC
drafted a letter on its own letterhead announcing the new relationship
and inviting certain of Pension Fund's existing investors to transfer
their funds to HSBC. Pension Fund sent the letter to approximately
half of its existing investors, and enclosed a form bearing HSBC's
logo that listed new mutual fund selections available upon transfer to
HSBC. Neither the letter nor the enclosure disclosed that investors
would incur new front-load fees in connection with such transfers, or
the amounts of those prospective costs. As a result, the complaint
alleges that HSBC violated Sections 17(a)(2) and 17(a)(3) of the
Securities Act of 1933.
The Final Judgment was entered in the civil case with HSBC's consent,
without admitting or denying the allegations of the Commission's
complaint. The Final Judgment orders HSBC to pay a total of
approximately $10.5 million, which will be paid into a Fair Fund for
the benefit of investors injured in the Pension Fund offering fraud.

SEITZ/MCALILEY (S.D. Fla.)] (LR-20328)
FORMER STOCK OPTIONS ADMINISTRATOR SENTENCED TO FORTY-SIX MONTHS IN
PRISON FOR WIRE FRAUD AND TAX EVASION IN CONNECTION WITH THEFT OF
STOCK OPTIONS
Vencent A. Donlan, former stock options administrator at Wireless
Facilities, Inc. (WFI) (now Kratos Defense & Security Solutions,
Inc.), has been sentenced to forty-six months in prison for federal
wire fraud and tax evasion violations relating to his fraudulently
obtaining stock and stock options from WFI. Donlan pled guilty to the
violations on July 3, 2007, under a plea agreement with the U.S.
Attorney's Office for the Southern District of California. The
Commission previously sued Donlan for perpetrating the fraudulent
stock options scheme.
In his plea, Donlan admitted that between November 2002 and November
2003, he used his position as WFI's stock option administrator to
issue without authorization 728,229 shares of WFI stock to a brokerage
account that he controlled and sold the stock for a net gain of
$6,252,794. Donlan also admitted that he evaded paying $2,202,917 in
federal income taxes in 2002 and 2003 by not declaring the income from
his WFI stock sales. The Honorable John A. Houston, U.S. District
Court Judge for the Southern District of California, accepted Donlan's
final plea and sentenced him on Oct. 9, 2007 (U.S. v. Vencent A.
Donlan, Criminal Action No. 07 CR 1725 JAH (LSP) S.D. Cal.).
On May 2, 2007, based on allegations similar to those admitted by
Donlan in his plea, the Commission obtained an order temporarily
restraining Donlan from violating the antifraud provisions of the
securities laws and freezing his assets. On June 5, 2007, the
Commission obtained an order permanently enjoining Donlan from
violating the registration and antifraud provisions of the securities
laws and requiring him to disgorge all ill-gotten gains from the
fraud, with prejudgment interest thereon, and pay civil monetary
penalties in amounts to be determined.
For additional information, see Litigation Release No. 20101 (May 3,
2007) and Litigation Release No. 20218 (July 31, 2007). [SEC v.
Vencent A. Donlan, Defendant, and Robin D. Colls Donlan, Relief
Defendant, Civil Action No. 07 CV 793 JAH (LSP) (S.D. Cal.).] (LR-
