Commission AnnouncementsSEC and CFTC Seek Public Input for Joint Stable Value Contract StudyThe Securities and Exchange Commission and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) have approved for publication in the Federal Register a request for public comment that is expected to assist in conducting a joint study on stable value contracts. Title VII of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act provides for the comprehensive regulation of swaps and security-based swaps and includes definitions of key terms relating to such regulation. It requires the SEC and CFTC to jointly conduct a study to determine whether stable value contracts fall within the definition of a swap, and if so, whether exempting such contracts from the swap definition is appropriate and in the public interest. The Dodd-Frank Act calls for the SEC and CFTC to make the determination in consultation with the Department of Labor, the Department of the Treasury, and the state entities that regulate the issuers of stable value contracts. Public comments must be received on or before 30 days after publication in the Federal Register. (Press Rel. 2011-169) Enforcement ProceedingsIn the Matter of Peter Emrich, Alberto Ferreiras, James Frankfurth, Frank Rossi, and Dana ValenskyThe Commission announced that on August 18, 2011, it issued an Order Instituting Administrative Proceedings Pursuant to Section 15(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Notice of Hearing (Order or OIP) against Peter Emrich (Emrich), Alberto Ferreiras (Ferreiras), James Frankfurth (Frankfurth), Frank Rossi (Rossi), and Dana Valensky (Valensky) (jointly Respondents). The Division of Enforcement alleges in the Order that: Emrich pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy to commit securities fraud in violation of 18 U.S.C. Section 371 before the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York in United States v. Kozak, et al., 02-CR-879 (the Kozak Case), a criminal case arising from an unregistered offering of securities of Out of the Black Partners LLC, a California limited liability company. On May 10, 2010, a criminal judgment was entered against Emrich. Frankfurth pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy to commit securities fraud in violation of 18 U.S.C. Section 371 in the Kozak Case. On June 21, 2010, a criminal judgment was entered against Frankfurth. Ferreiras pleaded guilty to the charges against him in the Kozak Case and United States v. Leonard, et al. 02-CR-881 (the Leonard Case), a related criminal case in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York arising from unregistered offerings of securities of two California limited liability companies, Little Giant, LLC and Heritage Film Group, LLC. In the Kozak and Leonard Cases, Ferreiras was charged with conspiracy and securities fraud. Ferreiras also pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy to commit mail fraud in violation of 18 U.S.C. Sections 1349 and 3147 and eight counts of mail fraud in violation of 18 U.S.C. Sections 1341, 3147 and 2 before the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York in United States v. Ferreiras, et al., 07-CR-325 (the ATM Case), a criminal case arising from a fraudulent scheme involving the sale of cashless ATM machines. On July 23, 2009, a criminal judgment was entered against Ferreiras in the Leonard, Kozak and ATM Cases. Rossi pleaded guilty to two counts of conspiracy to commit securities fraud in violation of 18 U.S.C. Section 371 in the Leonard Case. On March 21, 2011, a criminal judgment was entered against Rossi. Valensky pleaded guilty before the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York to two counts of conspiracy to commit securities fraud in U.S. v. Noorai, et al., 02-CR-880 (the Noorai Case), a criminal case arising from an unregistered offering of securities, and one count of conspiracy to commit securities fraud in the Leonard Case. On Nov. 10, 2010, a criminal judgment was entered against Valensky in the Noorai and Leonard Cases. The Order finds that the indictments in the Kozak and Leonard Cases alleged, among other things, that the Respondents and others concealed or conspired to conceal from investors the actual amount of sales commissions that would be paid from the proceeds of the offerings. The indictment in the ATM Case alleged that Ferreiras and his co-conspirator carried out a scheme to obtain money and property from others by means of materially false representations and omissions in connection with the sale of cashless ATM machines. A hearing will be scheduled before an Administrative Law Judge to determine whether the allegations contained in the OIP are true, to afford Respondents an opportunity to respond, and to determine what, if any, remedial sanctions are appropriate and in the public interest. The OIP 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.

(Rel. 34-65170; File No. 3-14465) Commission Settles With Two Defendants in Sedona Corporation Market Manipulation FraudThe Securities and Exchange Commission announced today that on August 8, 2011, the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York entered final judgments against defendants Mottes Drillman and Jacob Spinner in a Commission injunctive action arising from fraudulent manipulative trading in the securities of Sedona Corporation. Without admitting or denying the allegations in the Commission's complaint, Drillman and Spinner consented to the entry of judgments enjoining them from future violations of the anti-fraud provisions of the federal securities laws and from aiding and abetting violations of the broker-dealer record-keeping provisions, ordering each of them to pay disgorgement of $4,000, representing ill-gotten gains received as a result of the conduct alleged in the complaint, together with prejudgment interest thereon in the amount of $3,107.25, and a civil penalty of $25,000. The Commission's complaint alleges that, from February to April 2001, Drillman, Spinner, and others participated in a scheme with Andreas Badian, an official of an unregistered investment adviser firm, to manipulate Sedona’s stock price. The complaint also alleges that Drillman and Spinner 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. Four individuals and one entity remain as defendants in the litigation. In related administrative proceedings, the Commission issued Orders suspending each of Drillman and Spinner from associating with any broker or dealer for a period of six months. Without admitting the Orders’ findings, except as to jurisdiction and as to the entry of the injunctions against them, Drillman and Spinner each consented to issuance of the Order suspending him.

Ryan. Ryan consented to a Commission Order barring him 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 penny stock. This sanction was based on Ryan’s guilty plea to one count of an indictment in United States v. Matthew John Ryan, Crim. Indictment No. 1:10-cr-00319-NAM (N.D.N.Y.), on February 22, 2011. This count charged Ryan with securities fraud and alleged that he made false representations to investors and used investor funds for multiple purposes he concealed, including to pay other investors’ purported returns and his personal expenses, such as his loan payments on luxury cars. Ryan consented to the issuance of the Order without admitting or denying any of the findings therein, except as to jurisdiction and his guilty plea, which he admitted.
