Commission Announcements

Kristin Snyder Named Head of Examinations Program in SEC’s San Francisco Regional Office

The Securities and Exchange Commission today announced the appointment of Kristin Snyder to lead the examinations program in the agency’s San Francisco Regional Office.

Ms. Snyder has worked at the SEC for the past eight years, serving as a Branch Chief and a Senior Counsel in the San Francisco office’s enforcement program.  In her new position as Associate Regional Director for Examinations, Ms. Snyder leads a staff of approximately 50 accountants, examiners, attorneys and support staff responsible for the examination of broker-dealers, investment companies, investment advisers, and transfer agents across Northern California and the Pacific Northwest.

“As the SEC’s examination program becomes increasingly risk-focused, Kristin’s extensive enforcement experience will be ideal in identifying the practices with the greatest potential for investor harm and in supporting our mission to promote compliance, monitor risk and inform policy,” said Marc Fagel, Director of the San Francisco Regional Office.

Carlo di Florio, Director of the SEC’s Office of Compliance Inspections and Examinations, added, “I am pleased to welcome Kristin to her new position.  She has a well-earned reputation for being extraordinarily hardworking, efficient, and tenacious, making her well-suited for the job of implementing the national examination program’s strategies for investor protection and market integrity at a time of significant regulatory change.”

Ms. Snyder said, “Over the years, I have had the pleasure of working with many of our examination staff on complex and cutting-edge cases in the broker-dealer, investment adviser and investment company areas.  I am honored to be joining the talented and dedicated staff in San Francisco’s examination program at this exciting time.” 

Ms. Snyder, 41, assumes the Associate Regional Director for Examinations position vacated by Daryl Hagel when he retired from the agency.

Prior to joining the SEC staff, Ms. Snyder practiced with Sidley Austin Brown & Wood LLP in San Francisco.  She earned her law degree from the University of California Hastings College of the Law, and received her bachelor’s degree from the University of California at Davis. (Press Rel. 2011-249)

Commission Meetings

Following is a schedule of Commission meetings, which will be conducted under provisions of the Government in the Sunshine Act. Meetings will be scheduled according to the requirements of agenda items under consideration.

Open meetings will be held in the Auditorium, Room L-002 at the Commission's headquarters building, 100 F Street, N.E., Washington, D.C. Visitors are welcome at all open meetings, insofar as space is available. Persons wishing to photograph or videotape Commission meetings must obtain permission in advance from the Secretary of the Commission. Persons wishing to tape record a Commission meeting should notify the Secretary's office 48 hours in advance of the meeting.

Any member of the public who requires auxiliary aids such as a sign language interpreter or material on tape to attend a public meeting should contact SECInterpreter@SEC.gov at least three business days in advance. For any other reasonable accommodation related disability contact DisabilityProgramOfficer or call 202-551-4158.

Open Meeting on December 6, 2011 at 10:00 a.m.

The Commission will hold an open meeting to hear oral argument in an administrative proceeding regarding Theodore W. Urban, formerly general counsel, head of compliance, and member of the Board of Directors of Ferris, Baker Watts, Inc. (“FBW,” now operating under the name RBC Wealth Management), a registered broker-dealer and investment adviser.

Urban and the Division of Enforcement filed cross-appeals from the decision of an administrative law judge. The law judge found that Stephen Glantz, an FBW registered representative, engaged in various securities law violations while employed by FBW. She further found that Glantz was subject to Urban's supervision within the meaning of Section 15(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Section 203(f) of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940; however, the law judge dismissed the proceeding against Urban because she concluded that Urban did not fail to exercise that supervision reasonably.

Among the issues likely to be argued are (1) whether Glantz engaged in violations of the securities laws; (2) whether Urban was a supervisor of Glantz under applicable law; (3) if so, whether Urban failed to exercise that supervision reasonably; and (4) if so, whether and to what extent sanctions should be imposed.

For further information, please contact the Office of the Secretary at (202) 551-5400.

Enforcement Proceedings

In the Matter of Johnny Clifton

An Administrative Law Judge has issued an Initial Decision (Decision) in Johnny Clifton, Admin. Proc. No. 3-14266. The Order Instituting Administrative and Cease-and-Desist Proceedings (OIP) alleges that Johnny Clifton (Clifton), the president and principal of a registered broker-dealer, made material misrepresentations and omissions relating to an oil-and-gas well project. The OIP further alleges that Clifton failed to supervise sales representatives and sales practices.

The Decision finds these allegations to be true. As a result, Clifton violated Section 17(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 15(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Decision bars Clifton from association with any broker, dealer, investment adviser, municipal securities dealer, and transfer agent; imposes a cease-and-desist order; and imposes a third-tier civil penalty of $130,000 on Clifton. (Initial Decision No. 443; File No. 3-14266)

Federal Court Enters Judgments of Permanent Injunction and Other Relief Against Defendants Christopher M. Dubeau and Atlantis Technology Group

The United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida has entered final judgments on consent against defendants Christopher M. Dubeau and Atlantis Technology Group, enjoining them from violating the antifraud provisions of the federal securities laws. The Court’s final judgments, issued on October 31, 2011, enjoin Dubeau and Atlantis from violations of Section 10(b) and Rule 10b-5 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and also enjoin Dubeau from violations of Section 17(a) of the Securities Act of 1933. In addition to granting injunctive relief, the Court permanently barred Dubeau from participating in an offering of a penny stock and from acting as an officer or director of any public company. The Court also ordered Dubeau to disgorge his ill-gotten gains of $312,000.00, plus prejudgment interest in the amount of $12,947.93, and pay a civil penalty of $100,000.00.

The Commission’s Complaint against Dubeau and Atlantis, filed September 30, 2010, alleges that from at least August 7, 2009 through April 5, 2010, they issued numerous false press releases claiming, among other things, that Atlantis’ subsidiary, Global Online Television Corporation (GOTV), offered internet protocol television and video phone services to consumers, and claiming that GOTV had relationships with television networks to offer their content to Atlantis subscribers. The Complaint further alleges these claims were not true because, at the time Atlantis issued its press releases, GOTV was not able to offer internet protocol television services to consumers or video phone service, and it did not have relationships with television networks to offer content to its subscribers. [Securities and Exchange Commission v. Atlantis Technology Group and Christopher M. Dubeau, Civil Action No. 10-61824-CIV-ZLOCH (S.D. Fla.)] (LR-22171)
