SEC NEWS DIGEST
Issue 2007-249 December 31, 2007
ENFORCEMENT PROCEEDINGS
IN THE MATTER OF MONEESH K. BAKSHI, ESQ.
On December 28, the United States Securities and Exchange Commission
announced the issuance of an Order Instituting Public Administrative
Proceedings and Imposing Temporary Suspension Pursuant to Rule
102(e)(3) of the Commission's Rules of Practice against Moneesh K.
Bakshi. The Order finds that a court of competent jurisdiction has
found that Bakshi violated the federal securities laws, and has
permanently enjoined him from further violations.
Based on the above, the Order temporarily suspends Bakshi from
appearing or practicing before the Commission. If Bakshi does not
petition to lift that suspension within thirty days after service of
the Order, the suspension will become permanent pursuant to Rule
102(e)(3)(ii) of the Commission's Rules of Practice. (Rel. 34-57064;
File No. 3-12916)
SEC CHARGES SECOND CFO IN CONNECTION WITH FINANCIAL FRAUD AT UNITED
RENTALS, INC.
On December 27, the Securities and Exchange Commission filed a
complaint against Joseph F. Apuzzo, former Chief Financial Officer
(CFO) of Terex Corporation, for aiding and abetting securities law
violations of United Rentals, Inc. (URI) and Michael J. Nolan, a
former CFO of URI. Apuzzo is the second CFO charged in connection with
the alleged violations. On Dec. 12, 2007, the Commission filed settled
financial fraud charges against Nolan.
The Commission's complaint, filed in the United States District Court
for the District of Connecticut, alleges that Apuzzo aided and abetted
a fraudulent accounting scheme involving two sale-leaseback
transactions, carried out between 2000 and 2002 by URI, Nolan and
others. The transactions were structured to improve URI's 2000 and
2001 financial results by allowing URI to recognize revenue
prematurely and to inflate the profit generated from the sales. The
complaint further alleges that Apuzzo substantially assisted URI and
Nolan in implementing the fraudulent scheme by, among other things,
signing agreements with URI that he knew or was reckless in not
knowing were designed to hide URI's continuing risks and financial
obligations relating to the sale-leaseback transactions, and directing
or approving the issuance of inflated invoices that he knew or was
reckless in not knowing URI, through Nolan and others, would use to
inflate URI's gain on the transactions As a result of the fraudulent
transactions, URI materially overstated its financial results in its
Forms 10-K for fiscal years 2000 and 2001, as well as in other filings
and public releases.
The Commission's complaint alleges, as a result of his actions, that
Apuzzo aided and abetted URI's violations of Sections 10(b), 13(a) and
13(b)(2)(A) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rules 10b-5 and
13a-1 thereunder, and Nolan's violations of Section 13(b)(5) of the
Exchange Act and Exchange Act Rule 13b2-1. As part of this action, the
Commission seeks a permanent injunction prohibiting Apuzzo from future
violations of the federal securities laws, an officer and director
bar, disgorgement plus prejudgment interest, civil penalties, and
other equitable relief.
The Commission acknowledges the assistance of the U.S. Attorney's
Office for the District of Connecticut and the New Haven Field Office
of the Federal Bureau of Investigation in the investigation of this
matter.
The Commission's investigation is continuing.
For further information, see Litigation Release No. 20396 (Dec. 12,
2007). [SEC v. Joseph F. Apuzzo, Civil Action No. 07-CV-1910,
