In re Caremark Int l Inc., Derivative Lit. (Delaware,1996) Affirmed 10 years later by Delaware Supreme Court in Stone v. Ritter, 911 A.2d 32 (Del. 2006) 9
10 Why Spend Money on Compliance? (Cont d) Legislation:! Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (Section 404)! Requires companies and their auditors to evaluate the effectiveness of their internal controls over financial reporting.! Establishment of tone at the top! Existence of codes of conduct!

Knowing failure to timely disclose is grounds for suspension and debarment 10
11 Why Spend Money on Compliance? (Cont d)! Federal Sentencing Guidelines! Organizations, like individuals, can be found guilty of criminal conduct whenever an employee commits an act within the apparent scope of his or her employment, even if the employee acted directly contrary to company policy and instructions.! While organizations cannot be imprisoned, they can be fined, sentenced to probation for up to five years, ordered to make restitution! Most commonly occurring offenses are (1) fraud; (2) environmental waste; (3) tax offenses; (4) antitrust violations; and (5) food and drug violations.! November 1991 Organizational Sentencing Guidelines became effective. Designed to further:! Just Punishment; and! Deterrence -- Incentives are offered to detect and prevent crime.! The guidelines require not only promoting compliance with laws, but promoting a "Culture of Compliance.! An Effective Compliance Program can mitigate and in some cases eliminate this exposure. 11
12 Morgan Stanley Managing Director FCPA Violation (April 2012)! Morgan Stanley Managing Director bribed a Chinese government official to win business and enrich himself.! DOJ concluded that Morgan Stanley s internal controls and compliance procedures provided reasonable assurance that its employees were not bribing government officials.! Regularly updated policies to reflect regulatory developments and specific risks to the firm;! Provided FCPA training and reminders to comply; and! Required employees to certify compliance! Once Morgan Stanley discovered the problem, it took decisive actions:! shut down the office;! disciplined the Managing Director (fired);! Self-reported the incident; and! Cooperated with the government investigation.! SEC/DOJ TOOK NO ACTION AGAINST MORGAN STANLEY 12

Maximum prison time of 5 years; and! fine of $250,000 (or twice his gain from the offense) 13
14 Top Corporate Fines (1) Bank of America paid a fine of $16.65 billion to resolve fraud allegations regarding its mortgage-backed securities. Although advertised as high yield, low risk AAA bonds, the assets were not low risk and many of the mortgages in these securities were in default or in immediate threat thereof. (August 2014)* (2) JP Morgan Chase reached a tentative deal to pay $13 billion to end a number of civil investigations into its sale of mortgage securities prior to the financial crisis. (2013)** (3) GlaxoSmithKline pleaded guilty to criminal charges it illegally marketed drugs and failed to report safety data. The company agreed last July to pay $3 billion to the government in what could be the largest health-care fraud settlement in the U.S. (2013)** (4) HSBC Holdings Plc agreed to pay $1.9 billion in fees and penalties to resolve charges that the London-based bank s weak oversight of transactions helped Latin American drug cartels launder billions of dollars. (2012)** (5) Federal Court approved a $1.8 billion settlement for Billionaire Steven Cohen s affiliate company SAC Capital Advisors regarding charges related to insider trading by its employees.
