Exhibit A
Unless the context otherwise requires, the term “Morgan Stanley” means Morgan Stanley and its consolidated subsidiaries. Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated (“MS&Co.”) and Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC (“MSSB LLC”), referenced below, are Morgan Stanley’s primary U.S. broker-dealers.
(a) In May 2006, MS&Co. reached a settlement with the SEC, NYSE and NASD relating to its production of email in the research analyst and IPO investigations from December 2000 through at least July 2005. The complaint alleges that Morgan Stanley did not timely produce emails in response to requests in those matters because it did not diligently search for back-up tapes containing responsive emails until 2005, and because it over-wrote back-up tapes potentially containing responsive email until at least December 2002. Without admitting or denying the allegations of the complaint, Morgan Stanley consented to (1) a permanent injunction barring future violations of §17(b) of the Exchange Act (which requires, among other things, that Morgan Stanley respond promptly to SEC subpoenas and requests) and the relevant regulations promulgated thereunder and (2) the payment of a $15 million civil penalty, $5 million of which will be paid to NASD and the NYSE.
(b) In May 2007, MS&Co. consented, without admitting or denying the findings, to a censure, the entry of an order (the “Order”) that resolved the SEC’s investigation into violations of MS&Co.’s duty to obtain the best price possible for certain retail orders for over-the-counter securities processed by Morgan Stanley’s computerized market-making system from October 24, 2001 through December 8, 2004. Pursuant to the Order, Morgan Stanley was ordered to (1) cease and desist from committing any violations and any future violations of Section 15(c)(1)(A) of the Exchange Act, which prohibits broker-dealers from using manipulative, deceptive or fraudulent devices or contrivances to effect securities transactions, (2) pay disgorgement of $5,949,222 and pre-judgment interest thereon of $507,978 and (3) pay a civil money penalty of $1.5 million. Morgan Stanley also agreed to retain an independent distribution consultant to develop and implement a distribution plan for the disgorgement ordered, and to retain an independent compliance consultant to conduct a comprehensive review and provide a report on its automated retail order handling practices.
(c) On September 27, 2007, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) announced that the Company entered into a Letter of Acceptance, Waiver and Consent (the “AWC”) to resolve charges filed by FINRA on December 19, 2006. In the AWC, FINRA found that, among other things, Morgan Stanley provided inaccurate information regarding the existence of pre-September 11, 2001 emails and failed to provide such emails to arbitration claimants and regulators in response to discovery obligations and regulatory inquiries, failed adequately to preserve books and records, and failed to establish and maintain systems and written procedures reasonably designed to preserve required records and to ensure that it conducted adequate searches in response to regulatory inquiries and discovery requests. The AWC also included findings that Morgan Stanley failed to provide arbitration claimants with updates to a supervisory manual when called for in discovery. FINRA found that Morgan Stanley violated Section 17(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, Rule 17a-4 thereunder, NASD Conduct Rules 2110, 3010 (a) and (b) and 3110, NASD Procedural Rule 8210 and Interpretative Material 10100 under the NASD Code of Arbitration Procedure. In the settlement, Morgan Stanley neither admitted nor denied these findings. The settlement established a $9.5 million fund for the benefit of potentially affected arbitration claimants to be administered by a third party at the expense of Morgan Stanley. In addition, Morgan Stanley was censured and agreed to pay a $3 million regulatory fine and to retain an independent consultant to review its procedures for complying with discovery requirements in arbitration proceedings relating to Morgan Stanley’s retail brokerage operations.
(d) Starting in July 2003, Morgan Stanley received subpoenas and requests for information from various regulatory and governmental agencies, including the SEC, the NYSE and various states, in connection with industry-wide investigations of broker-dealers and mutual fund complexes relating to possible late trading and market timing of mutual funds. In December 2007, Morgan Stanley settled all claims with the SEC concerning late trading and market timing of mutual funds in the retail system over the period from January
2002 to August 2003. Under the terms of the settlement, Morgan Stanley will, among other things, be censured and pay a monetary fine.
(e) On September 30, 2009, Morgan Stanley entered into an administrative settlement agreement with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) to resolve certain violations of the U.S. environmental laws allegedly committed by Morgan Stanley during 2005. These alleged violations included: distribution of approximately 2.7 million gallons of reformulated gasoline that failed to comply with maximum benzene content limitations; failure to report volume and property information for each batch of gasoline blendstock imported and reformulated gasoline produced; failure to conduct an annual attest engagement; and failure to provide product transfer documents for each transfer of reformulated gasoline and each batch of previously certified gasoline. Without admitting or denying the EPA’s allegations, Morgan Stanley agreed to resolve these matters for a civil penalty of $405,000.
(f) On June 24, 2010, Morgan Stanley and the Office of the Attorney General for the Commonwealth of Massachusetts (“Massachusetts OAG”) entered into an Assurance of Discontinuance (“AOD”) to resolve the Massachusetts OAG’s investigation of the Company’s financing, purchase and securitization of certain subprime residential mortgages. The AOD provides for Morgan Stanley to make payments totaling approximately $102.7 million, and for Morgan Stanley to use its best efforts to implement certain business practices related to such activities on a prospective basis.
In addition, MS&Co. has been involved in a number of civil proceedings which concern matters arising in connection with the conduct of its business. Certain of such proceedings have resulted in findings of violation of federal or state securities laws. Each of these proceedings was settled by MS&Co. consenting to the entry of an order without admitting or denying the allegations in the complaint. All of such proceedings are reported and summarized in the MS&Co. Form BD filed with the SEC, which descriptions are hereby incorporated by reference. The MSSB LLC Form BD filed with the SEC is also hereby incorporated by reference.
