III. FCPA Prosecutions of Individuals U.S. v. Lindsay Manufacturing (C.D. Cal.) (Dec. 2011) Convictions of several defendants vacated and charges dismissed because of prosecutorial misconduct Misconduct included: Allowing a key FBI agent to testify untruthfully Inserting material falsehoods into affidavits submitted to the Court Improperly reviewing an e-mail communication between a defendant and her lawyer Engaging in questionable behavior during closing argument and making misrepresentations to the Court DOJ decided not to appeal to Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals 9

Current FCPA Issues of Interest What effect, if any, will the new DOJ and SEC Guide to the FCPA have on actual FCPA enforcement? How many FCPA prosecutions will take place as a result of the whistleblower provisions of the Dodd- Frank Act? What effect will the Shot Show debacle, in which the DOJ ended up dropping charges against 22 individual FCPA defendants, and other failed prosecutions have on future FCPA prosecutions of individuals? id 14
