Enforcement proceedings

In the Matter of Fifth Third Bancorp

On November 22, 2011, the Commission issued an Order Instituting Cease-And-Desist Proceedings, Pursuant to Section 21C of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, Making Findings, and Imposing a Cease-And-Desist Order (Order). The Order finds that Fifth Third Bancorp violated fair disclosure rules when it selectively disclosed to certain investors that it would be redeeming trust preferred securities (TruPS).

In particular, the Order finds that in May 2011, Fifth Third informed certain investors that it would be redeeming a class of its TruPS at a significant discount to the market price at that time. Fifth Third did not publicly disclose the redemption until it became aware that investors who appeared to have learned of the redemption had been selling the securities to unwitting buyers. Without admitting or denying the Commission’s findings, Fifth Third consented to the issuance of a cease-and-desist order finding that it violated Regulation FD, which prohibits issuers from selectively disclosing material nonpublic information about itself or its securities to certain market participants without also disclosing the information to the public generally.

In its Order, the SEC found that Fifth Third issued a redemption notice to the Depository Trust Corporation, the holder of record of the securities, on May 16, 2011. To inform the beneficial holders of the redemption, DTC posted the notice the following day on its Legal Notification System (“LENS”), an on-line library available to subscribers and DTC member banks and brokers. The redemption notice indicated that Fifth Third would be redeeming the TruPS for about $25 per share. At the time, the securities were trading on the New York Stock Exchange for about $26.50 per share. After certain investors learned that the TruPS would be redeemed at a discount to the prevailing market price, they began selling the securities to buyers who were unaware of the redemption. The SEC’s Order finds that Fifth Third publicly disclosed the redemption only after it learned of the impact that its selective disclosure had on the market.

Based on the above, the Order requires Fifth Third to cease and desist from committing or causing any violations and any future violations of Section 13(a) of the Exchange Act, 15 U.S.C. § 78m(a), and Regulation FD, 17 C.F.R. § 243.100, et seq.

In accepting Fifth Third’s offer of settlement, the Commission considered the cooperation afforded the Commission staff and remedial acts promptly and voluntarily undertaken by Fifth Third. Fifth Third has offered to compensate investors harmed by the timing of its disclosure. Fifth Third has also adopted additional policies and procedures relating to the redemption of securities.

Beth Collier Groves, Paul Gunson and Jonathan Jacobs conducted the SEC’s investigation in this matter. (Rel. 34-65808; File No. 3-14639)

SEC Charges Illinois-Based Hedge Fund Adviser and Its Owner For Fraudulent Conduct

The Securities and Exchange Commission today announced that on November 18, it filed a civil injunctive action against Patrick G. Rooney (“Rooney”), a resident of Oakbrook, Illinois, and his company, Solaris Management, LLC (“Solaris Management”), the investment adviser to the Solaris Opportunity Fund, LP (“Solaris Fund”) for the fraudulent misuse of the Solaris Fund’s assets and other illegal conduct.

According to the SEC’s complaint, the Solaris Fund is purportedly a non-directional hedge fund with approximately 30 investors and reported assets of $16,277,780 as of December 2008. Contrary to the Solaris Fund’s offering documents and marketing materials, Rooney and Solaris Management allegedly made a radical change in the Solaris Fund’s investment strategy by becoming wholly invested in Positron Corp. (“Positron”), a financially troubled microcap company of which Rooney has been Chairman since 2004. Rooney, who has received compensation from Positron since September 2005, allegedly misused the Solaris Fund’s money by investing over $3.6 million in Positron through both private transactions and market purchases. Many of the private transactions were undocumented while other investments were loans to Positron at 0% interest. The complaint alleges that Rooney and Solaris Management hid the Positron investments and Rooney’s relationship with the company from the Solaris Fund’s investors for over four years. Although Rooney finally told investors about the Positron investments in a March 2009 newsletter, he allegedly lied by telling them he became Chairman to safeguard the Solaris Funds’ investment. The complaint further alleges that these investments benefited Positron and Rooney while providing the Solaris Fund with a concentrated, undiversified, and illiquid position in a cash-poor company with a lengthy track record of losses.

The SEC’s complaint, filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois, charges Rooney and Solaris Management with violating Section 17(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, Sections 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”) and Rules 10b-5 and thereunder, and Sections 206(1), 206(2), and 206(4) of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 (“Advisers Act”) and Rule 206(4)-8(a)(1) and (a)(2) thereunder. The complaint also charges Rooney with aiding and abetting Solaris Management’s violations of Section 206(4) of the Advisers Act and Rule 206(4)-8(a)(1) thereunder, and Rooney and Solaris Management with aiding and abetting the Solaris Fund’s violation of Section 10(b) of the Exchange Act and Rule 10b-5(b) thereunder, and Section 13(d)(1) of the Exchange Act and Rule 13d-1 thereunder.

The SEC is seeking permanent injunctions, disgorgement of any ill-gotten gains plus prejudgment interest and civil monetary penalties against Rooney and Solaris Management, and an officer and director bar against Rooney.
