Commission announcementsSecurities and Exchange Commission Suspends Trading in the Securities of Six Issuers for Failure to Make Required Periodic FilingsThe U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission announced the temporary suspension of trading in the securities of the following issuers, commencing at 9:30 a.m. EDT on July 19, 2012 and terminating at 11:59 p.m. EDT on August 1, 2012.
The Commission temporarily suspended trading in the securities of these six issuers due to a lack of current and accurate information about the companies because they have 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 these companies. Brokers and dealers should be alert to the fact that, pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 15c2-11, at the termination of the trading suspensions, no quotation may be entered relating to the securities of the subject companies 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 these companies 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. 34-67462) SEC Veteran Michele Wein Layne Named Director of Los Angeles OfficeThe Securities and Exchange Commission today announced that Michele Wein Layne has been named Regional Director of the Los Angeles Regional Office and will begin her new role immediately. Ms. Layne has been an Associate Regional Director for Enforcement in the L.A. office since 2005. She began her SEC career 17 years ago as a staff attorney in the Enforcement Division and has worked her way up the ranks into the office’s most senior position. Ms. Layne has been serving as the Co-Acting Regional Director since the departure of prior office director Rosalind Tyson earlier this year. During her tenure at the SEC, Ms. Layne has worked on many significant enforcement cases involving a wide variety of securities law violations. Among the cases in which she has played a leadership role was the enforcement action against Countrywide CEO Angelo Mozilo that resulted in the largest SEC penalty ever paid by a public company’s senior executive, and the CSK Auto matter that marked the SEC’s first-ever Sarbanes-Oxley Act “clawback” case against an individual who was required to return bonuses and stock profits while not personally charged for the company’s misconduct. “Michele has devoted her professional life to the high calling of protecting the nation’s investors and its financial markets,” said Robert Khuzami, Director of the SEC’s Enforcement Division. “The leadership, judgment, and deep substantive knowledge she exercised while supervising some of the SEC’s most challenging enforcement actions makes her the perfect choice to lead the Los Angeles Regional Office into the future. I am delighted she has accepted this position.” Carlo di Florio, Director of the SEC’s Office of Compliance Inspections and Examinations, added, “Michele has been a proven leader and strong partner with the National Exam Program. She has promoted effective coordination between our enforcement and exam teams. Her efforts have helped to ensure we are examining firms that present the most significant risks to investors and holding these firms and executives accountable. We are excited to welcome Michele to our leadership team.” Ms. Layne said, “I am honored and fortunate for the opportunity to serve as the head of the Los Angeles Regional Office. For almost two decades, I have had the great privilege to work with the exceptionally dedicated and talented Los Angeles staff and look forward to leading our office’s continuing exemplary efforts on behalf of the investing public.” As Regional Director, Ms. Layne will manage the examination and enforcement programs that operate out of the Los Angeles office, which has a staff of more than 120. The office primarily covers the SEC’s examination and enforcement efforts in Southern California, Arizona, Nevada, Hawaii, and Guam. Prior to joining the SEC staff in 1995, Ms. Layne worked in private practice for 11 years at the law firms of Dewey & LeBoeuf and Buchalter Nemer. Her practice concentrated on complex business litigation. Ms. Layne received her law degree from the University of Southern California. She graduated magna cum laude and Phi Beta Kappa from the University of California at Los Angeles. (Press Rel. 2012-140) SEC Charges CEO With Insider Trading in Secondary Offering of Company StockThe Securities and Exchange Commission today charged the chairman and CEO of a Santa Ana, Calif.-based computer storage device company with insider trading in a secondary offering of his stock shares with knowledge of confidential information that a major customer’s demand for one of its most profitable products was turning out to be less than expected. The SEC alleges that Manouchehr Moshayedi sought to take advantage of a dramatically upward trend in the stock price of STEC Inc. by deciding to sell a significant portion of his stock holdings as well as shares owned by his brother, a company co-founder. The secondary offering was set to coincide with the release of the company’s financial results for the second quarter of 2009 and its revenue guidance for the third quarter. However, in the days leading up to the secondary offering, Moshayedi learned critical nonpublic information that was likely to have a detrimental impact on the stock price. Moshayedi did not call off the offering and abstain from selling his shares once he possessed the negative information unbeknownst to the investing public. Instead, he engaged in a fraudulent scheme to hide the truth through a secret side deal, and proceeded with the sale of 9 million shares from which he and his brother reaped gross proceeds of approximately $134 million each. “Moshayedi put his own self-interest ahead of his responsibility to lead a public company, and shareholders who placed their trust in him suffered as a result,” said Michele Wein Layne, Director of the SEC’s Los Angeles Regional Office. “Company insiders are strictly prohibited under the securities laws from exploiting corporate dealings for private gain, particularly in the secretive and manipulative manner that Moshayedi did.” According to the SEC’s complaint filed in U.S. District Court for the Central District of California, STEC’s stock price increased more than 800 percent from January to August 2009 as the company reported higher revenues, sales, and margins for its products, particularly its flagship flash memory product called “ZeusIOPS,” a solid state drive (SSD). The stock rise also came on the heels of STEC’s July 2009 announcement of a unique agreement with its largest customer, EMC Corporation, which agreed to buy $120 million worth of ZeusIOPS in the third and fourth quarter of 2009. Moshayedi touted the sales growth of ZeusIOPS and said the agreement with EMC was “part of the expected growth” for STEC going forward. The SEC alleges that as the Aug. 3, 2009 date for the secondary offering approached, Moshayedi learned in the course of his CEO duties two critical pieces of nonpublic information indicating that EMC’s actual demand for the ZeusIOPS was lower than previously expected. First, Moshayedi learned that EMC’s actual demand for the ZeusIOPS product in the third quarter would only be approximately $34 million – not nearly enough to ensure that STEC’s third quarter revenue guidance could meet or exceed consensus analyst estimates. Analysts had increased STEC’s revenue guidance estimates for the third quarter after STEC announced the agreement with EMC. Second, EMC informed Moshayedi that it would never again enter into a similar agreement with STEC. According to the SEC’s complaint, Moshayedi responded by entering into a secret side deal with EMC in order to meet third quarter consensus revenue estimates. Moshayedi convinced EMC on July 29 to take $55 million of ZeusIOPS product in the third quarter – far more than it actually needed – in exchange for an undisclosed additional $2 million price discount on the product in the fourth quarter. After securing this deal, STEC announced the orchestrated guidance figures that amounted to approximately $21 million more than EMC’s actual forecasted demand for the quarter. And even though EMC unequivocally informed Moshayedi on the morning of August 3 that it would not make further volume commitments, he withheld this critical information from investors prior to his secondary offering while at the same time touting in public documents the future growth of the ZeusIOPS product and the importance of the STEC-EMC $120 million agreement. The SEC’s complaint charges Moshayedi with violating the anti-fraud provisions of U.S. securities laws and seeks a final judgment ordering him to disgorge his own ill-gotten gains and the trading profits of his brother Mehrdad Mark Moshayedi, pay prejudgment interest and financial penalties, and be permanently barred from future violations and from serving as an officer and director of any registered public company. The SEC’s investigation was conducted by Finola H. Manvelian and Douglas Kobayashi in the Los Angeles Regional Office, and John W. Berry will lead the litigation.

RULES AND RELATED MATTERSNotification of Technical Amendments to Securities Act Industry GuidesOn July 13, 2012, notice was given of the publication of technical amendments to Guide 3, Statistical Disclosure by Bank Holding Companies, and Guide 7, Description of Property by Issuers Engaged or to be Engaged in Significant Mining Operations, of the Securities Act of 1933 Industry Guides. These revisions are to conform the Industry Guides to the FASB Accounting Standards CodificationTM . (Rel. 33-9337) SEC Extends Interim Final Temporary Rule on Retail Foreign Exchange TransactionsThe Commission has amended interim final temporary Rule 15b12-1T under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 to extend its term to July 16, 2013, such that registered broker-dealers may continue to engage in retail foreign exchange transactions until that date under the existing regulatory framework that applies to them when effecting such transactions. (File No. S7-30-11). Publication is expected in the Federal Register during the week of July 16, 2012. (Rel. 34-67405) Further Definition of “Swap,” “Security-Based Swap,” and “Security-Based Swap Agreement”; Mixed Swaps; Security-Based Swap Agreement RecordkeepingThe Commission has adopted, jointly with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), rules and interpretations further defining the terms “swap” and “security-based swap” and whether a particular instrument is a “swap” regulated by the CFTC or a “security-based swap” regulated by the SEC. The rules and interpretations also address “mixed swaps,” which are regulated by both agencies, and “security-based swap agreements,” which are regulated by the CFTC but over which the SEC has antifraud and other authority. The rules and interpretations implement provisions of the 2010 Dodd-Frank Act that establish a comprehensive framework for regulating over-the-counter derivatives. The final rules and interpretations will become effective 60 days after the date of publication in the Federal Register. The compliance date of such rules and interpretation for purposes of certain interim exemptions under the federal securities laws will be 180 days after the date of publication in the Federal Register. The full text of the adopting release can be accessed on the Commission’s website at http://sec.gov/rules/final/2012/33-9338.pdf. (Rel. 33-9338; 34-67453) Enforcement proceedingsMarc Christopher Harmon SanctionedMarc Christopher Harmon (Harmon) has been barred from association with any broker or dealer. The sanction was ordered in an administrative proceeding before an administrative law judge, following a court-ordered injunction against him. In May 2012, Harmon was enjoined from violating the antifraud and registration provisions of the federal securities laws based on his involvement in a scheme that raised approximately $3.2 million from approximately sixteen investors through fraudulent, unregistered sales of securities. (Rel. 34-67458; File No. 3-14896) Commission Orders Hearings on Registration Suspension or Revocation Against Seven Companies 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 seven companies for failure to make required periodic filings with the Commission:
In this Order, the Division of Enforcement (Division) alleges that the seven issuers are delinquent in their 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 registrations pursuant to Exchange Act Section 12 of each class of the securities of these Respondents 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. (Rel. 34-67463; File No. 3-14956) Delinquent Filers’ Stock Registrations RevokedThe registrations of the registered securities of Herzog International Holdings, Inc., Tatonka Oil & Gas Company, Inc., Green Capital Group, Inc., Lone Star International Energy Inc., Wintech Digital System Technology Corp., and House of Brussels Chocolates, Inc., have been revoked. Each had repeatedly failed to file required annual and quarterly reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission. 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. 34-67464; File No. 3-14781) In the Matter of Stephen J. Czarnik, Esq.The United States Securities and Exchange Commission (Commission) announced the issuance of an Order Instituting Administrative Proceedings Pursuant to Rule 102(e) of the Commission’s Rules of Practice, Making Findings and Imposing Remedial Sanctions (Order) against Stephen J. Czarnik, Esq. The Order finds that on July 12, 2012, a final judgment was entered against Czarnik in SEC v. Czarnik, in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, permanently enjoining him from future violations of Section 5 of the Securities Act of 1933, enjoining him from participating in an offering of penny stock for a period of five years, and permanently barring him from providing professional legal opinions in connection with the offer or sale of securities claiming an exemption under Regulation D of the Securities Act. The Order further finds that the Commission’s civil complaint alleged, among other things, that Czarnik, a securities lawyer, was a necessary and substantial participant in the unregistered distributions of several penny stocks in violation of Section 5 of the Securities Act of 1933. Czarnik drafted opinion letters for these offerings stating that they were exempt from registration pursuant to Rule 504(b)(1)(iii) of Regulation D. The Commission alleged that the offerings did not comply with that rule because the offerings were not limited to bona fide accredited investors. Based on the above, the Order suspends Stephen J. Czarnik from appearing or practicing before the Commission as an attorney. Czarnik has the right to apply for reinstatement after a period of three years from the date of the Order. Czarnik consented to the issuance of the Order without admitting or denying any of the findings of the Order, except that he admitted the entry of the final judgment and injunctions. (Rel. 34-67465; File No. 3-14957) In the Matter of Huron Consulting Group Inc., Gary L. Burge, CPA, and Wayne E. Lipski, CPAThe Securities and Exchange Commission (Commission) announced the issuance of 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 and Remedial Sanctions (Order) against Huron Consulting Group Inc., Gary L. Burge, and Wayne E. Lipski. The Order finds that Huron Consulting Group Inc. (Huron), a provider of financial and operational consulting services, Gary L. Burge (Burge), Huron’s former Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer, and Wayne E. Lipski (Lipski), Huron’s former Controller and Chief Accounting Officer, failed to properly record compensation expense for certain payments. The Order finds that the selling shareholders of four companies that Huron acquired (SSHs) redistributed a portion of the acquisition sales proceeds that they received from Huron to other Huron employees and among themselves (Redistributions). Contrary to Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, Huron did not record compensation expense for these payments. The Order further finds that in January 2008, Huron, Burge and Lipski considered an SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin, which referenced accounting principles applicable to the Redistributions, but that they subsequently did not determine the full impact of the accounting principles on the company’s financials. Their analysis as to certain Redistributions was inadequate, they did not revisit prior Redistributions and previously contemplated Redistributions of which they were aware, and they did not adequately consider whether there were any additional prior Redistributions or contemplated Redistributions that needed to be analyzed. Due to the improper accounting, Huron filed periodic reports with the Commission that overstated its pre-tax income by 3.70% for 2005, 6.09% for 2006, 30.45% for 2007, 68.59% for 2008, and 25.29% for the first quarter of 2009. In August 2009, Huron restated its financial statements for fiscal years 2006, 2007 and 2008 and the first quarter of 2009, reducing its net income by approximately $56 million. The Order also finds that Huron failed to maintain effective internal controls to ensure the appropriate recording and reporting of Redistributions. Based on the above, the Order requires that Huron cease and desist from committing or causing any violations and any future violations of Sections 13(a), 13(b)(2)(A), and 13(b)(2)(B) of the Exchange Act and Rules 12b-20, 13a-1, and 13a-13 thereunder, and that it pay a civil money penalty in the amount of $1,000,000. The Order also requires that Burge and Lipski cease and desist from committing or causing any violations and any future violations of Sections 13(a), 13(b)(2)(A), and 13(b)(2)(B) of the Exchange Act and Rules 12b-20, 13a-1, 13a-13, and 13b2-1 thereunder. Burge is also ordered to pay a civil money penalty in the amount of $50,000.00 and disgorgement of $147,763.12 plus prejudgment interest of $30,338.46, for a total payment of $228,101.58. Lipski is also ordered to pay a civil money penalty in the amount of $50,000.00 and disgorgement of $12,750.00 plus prejudgment interest of $3,584.94, for a total payment of $66,334.94. Huron, Burge and Lipski consented to the issuance of the Order without admitting or denying any of the findings in the Order. (Rel. 34-67472; AAE Rel. 3394; File No. 3-14958; Press Rel. 2012-142) SEC Obtains Final Judgment in Case Involving Ponzi Scheme and Promotion of China Voice Holding Corp.The Commission today announced the entry of a final judgment against Ilya Drapkin and two of his companies, MG TK Corp. and SMI Chips, Inc. The Commission previously alleged that Drapkin financed a stock promotion campaign concerning China Voice Holding Corp. at the same time that he sold millions of shares of China Voice. In addition, the Commission alleged that MG TK Corp. and SMI Chips received ill-gotten gains from a Ponzi scheme orchestrated by China Voice’s co-founder and former CFO, David Ronald Allen, and two associates. The final judgment permanently enjoins Drapkin from violating Section 17(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933. The final judgment also orders Drapkin and MG TK to pay $3,754,004 in disgorgement and prejudgment interest and a civil penalty of $1,554,080, in connection with their sale of China Voice shares while financing stock promotion campaigns that encouraged investors to buy shares. The final judgment also orders Drapkin and MG TK to pay an additional $493,606 in disgorgement and prejudgment interest and Drapkin and SMI Chips to pay $74,270 in disgorgement and prejudgment interest. These figures represent the profits gained by Drapkin, MG TK, and SMI Chips from the Ponzi scheme run by Allen and his associates. In addition, Drapkin is barred from participating in offerings of penny stocks. The final judgment was entered on July 6, 2012. [SEC v. David Ronald Allen, et al., Civil Action No. 3:11-CV-882-O (N.D.
