SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT
PART I -- INTRODUCTION
1. The Ontario Securities Commission (the "Commission") will issue a Notice of Hearing to announce that it will hold a hearing to consider whether, pursuant to sections 127 and 127.1 of the Securities Act, R.S.O. 1990, c. S-5, as amended (the "Act"), it is in the public interest for the Commission to approve this settlement agreement and to make certain orders in respect of Sarbjeet Singh ("Singh") and 2241153 Ontario Inc. ("2241153") (collectively, the "Respondents").
PART II -- JOINT SETTLEMENT RECOMMENDATION
2. Staff of the Commission ("Staff") agrees to recommend settlement of the proceeding commenced by Notice of Hearing against the Respondents (the "Proceeding") according to the terms and conditions set out in Part VI of this Settlement Agreement (the "Settlement Agreement"). The Respondents agree to the making of an order in the form attached as Schedule "A", based on the facts set out below.
3. For the purposes of this proceeding, and any other regulatory proceeding commenced by a securities regulatory authority, the Respondents agree with the facts as set out in Parts III and V and the conclusion in Part IV of the Settlement Agreement.
PART III -- AGREED FACTS
A. OVERVIEW
4. Between November 2011 to August 2012 (the "Relevant Period"), Singh was an officer and a director of 2241153. During the Relevant Period, 2241153 issued a promissory note to one investor for $200,000 (the "Promissory Note"). The Promissory Note stated that the investor would receive an interest rate of 5 percent per month on her investment. At the direction of others, Singh signed the Promissory Note in his capacity as a director of 2241153.
5. The Respondents engaged in acts in furtherance of a trade without being registered and when no exemptions from registration were available under the Act. The conduct was in breach of subsection 25(1)(a) of the Act and contrary to the public interest.
B. INDIVIDUALS AND CORPORATION
6. 2241153 was incorporated on April 20, 2010 pursuant to the laws of Ontario. 2241153 has never been a reporting issuer in Ontario and has never been registered with the Commission in any capacity.
7. Evgueni Todorov ("Todorov") is a resident of Toronto, Ontario. During the Relevant Period, Todorov was the directing mind of 2241153. Todorov has never been registered with the Commission in any capacity.
8. Dipak Banik ("Banik") is a resident of Toronto, Ontario. In December 2011, Banik was made vice-president, president and a director of 2241153. Banik has never been registered with the Commission in any capacity.
9. Singh is a resident of Brampton, Ontario. Throughout the Relevant Period, Singh was president and a director of 2241153. Singh was registered with the Commission in the category of Scholarship Plan Dealer from October 1999 to December 2003.
C. BACKGROUND
10. Several months prior to the trade at issue in this Settlement Agreement, Singh had invested his own personal funds with Todorov, who he had never previously met and had been introduced to by Banik.
11. In the summer of 2011, Singh was approached and convinced by Todorov to invest with him. Singh was told that his investment would be traded by Todorov in the foreign currency markets for profit and that Todorov had developed a trading strategy that would guarantee no loss on the investment. Todorov did not disclose to Singh that he was unregistered to trade in securities. Singh was also unaware that Todorov was actively being investigated by Staff for unrelated foreign currency trading, which resulted in a finding of fraud, unregistered trading and an illegal distribution by the Commission against Todorov as set out in its decision in 2196768 Ontario Ltd. (c.o.b. RARE Investments) (Re) (2014), 27 OSCB 6281 (the "RARE Decision").
12. On July 29, 2011, on the basis of Todorov's representations, Singh entered into a promissory note with Todorov in which Singh invested $50,000 of his own funds, all of which was drawn from his personal line of credit (the "Singh Promissory Note"). In return for his investment, the terms of the Singh Promissory Note stated that Singh was entitled to receive an interest rate of 10 percent per month with repayment of the principal one year from the date of the note.
13. Contrary to those terms, between July and October 2011, Singh received only one interest payment from Todorov in the amount of $2,500.
14. On October 22, 2011, at the direction of Todorov, Singh opened a bank account in the name of 2241153 at a bank branch located in Ontario (the "2241153 Bank Account").
15. On November 9, 2011, at the direction of Todorov, Singh submitted an application to open a trading account in the name of 2241153 with a foreign exchange market broker (the "2241153 Trading Account"). Singh provided Todorov with the username and password to the trading account in order that Todorov could execute trades in the account. At no time during the Relevant Period was Todorov designated as having formal trading authority over the Trading Account, although the broker was aware of Todorov's involvement in the account and, at times, would correspond directly with him.
D. THE INVESTMENT
16. On November 8, 2011, an investor ("Investor A"), through her personal corporation ("Company A"), entered into a promissory note with 2241153 (referred to above as the "Promissory Note").
17. Singh had never previously met Investor A and had little to no direct discussion with her prior to her investment, all such discussions having taken place directly between Todorov and Investor A. Singh understands from Staff that Investor A was told that the investment would be traded by Todorov in the foreign currency markets for profit.
18. The terms of the Promissory Note stated that, in return for her investment of $200,000, Investor A would receive an interest rate of 5 percent per month with repayment of the principal one year from the date of the note. At the direction of Todorov, Singh signed the Promissory Note on behalf of 2241153 in his capacity as a director of 2241153. The Promissory Note was also signed by Todorov and Banik.
19. The funds were subsequently wired by Investor A into the 2241153 Bank Account from Company A's bank account. On November 11, 2011, approximately $170,000 was transferred by Singh from the 2241153 Bank Account into the 2241153 Trading Account at Todorov's direction. Approximately $30,000 of the investment monies were retained in the 2241153 Bank Account.
20. The Promissory Note entered into by 2241153 was a "note or other evidence of indebtedness" and an "investment contract", and therefore a "security", as defined in subsection 1(1) of the Act.
E. DISBURSEMENT OF THE INVESTOR FUNDS
21. Over the course of the Relevant Period, Singh made a series of withdrawals from the 2241153 Trading Account and payments from the 2241153 Bank Account, primarily at the direction of Todorov.
22. Prior to making each of the payments or withdrawals, Singh was advised by Todorov that the profits generated in the 2241153 Trading Account had substantially increased as a result of Todorov's trading and that the amounts withdrawn from the 2241153 Trading Account represented "trading profits". In almost all cases, prior to each withdrawal or payment, Singh was provided with contemporaneous brokerage statements and other documents by Todorov from the 2241153 Trading Account which Todorov had explained to Singh demonstrated that the account's net profits had substantially increased. Singh has no experience in foreign currency trading whatsoever and now understands that those statements may have been false.
23. The withdrawals and payments that were made are detailed as follows:
(a) On November 16, 2011, three payments were made from the 2241153 Bank Account, which included a transfer to Singh in the amount of $9,500. The two other payments, totalling $19,000, went to Banik and Todorov, or entities associated with them.
(b) On November 21, 2011, $30,000 was withdrawn from the 2241153 Trading Account, which was sent via wire transfer to the 2241153 Bank Account.
(c) On November 22, 2011, three payments were made from the 2241153 Bank Account, which included a transfer to Singh in the amount of $9,500. The two other payments, totalling $19,000, went to Banik and Todorov, or entities associated with them.
(d) On November 24, 2011, $60,000 was withdrawn from the 2241153 Trading Account, which was sent via wire transfer to the 2241153 Bank Account.
(e) On November 24, 2011, three payments were made from the 2241153 Bank Account, which included a deposit to Singh in the amount of $10,000. The two other payments, totalling $50,000, went to Banik and Todorov, or entities associated with them.
(f) On November 28, 2011, $60,000 was withdrawn from the 2241153 Trading Account, which was sent via wire transfer to the 2241153 Bank Account.
(g) On November 28, 2011, two payments were made from the 2241153 Bank Account to Todorov and Banik, or entities associated with them, totalling $40,000. On November 29, 2011, a payment of $20,000 was made from the 2241153 Bank Account to a company associated with Singh via a bank draft.
(h) On December 19, 2011, the Respondent transferred $15,000 from his personal bank account back to the 2241153 Bank Account. At that time, Todorov informed Singh that the 2241153 Trading Account "was down" and he was unable to close positions in the account without a loss. Todorov advised Singh that Investor A would not be paid her first interest payment which had now become due under the Promissory Note. Despite Singh's demands that Investor A be paid by Todorov, Todorov refused to do so. As a result, Singh transferred his own funds to the 2241153 Bank Account to ensure that Investor A would be paid.
(i) On December 19, 2011, Investor A received a $10,000 interest payment via bank draft, which was debited from the 2241153 Bank Account.
(j) On December 20, 2011, Singh returned $5,000 from his own personal bank account back to the 2241153 Bank Account.
(k) On December 30, 2011, Singh withdrew $3,000 from the 2241153 Bank Account, being part of the balance of the $15,000 deposit he made.
(l) In early 2012, Singh made two further withdrawals from the 2241153 Bank Account in the amount of $2,000.
24. Aside from the $10,000 interest payment received on December 19, 2011, Investor A has not recovered her investment principal.
F. BENEFIT ACCRUING TO THE RESPONDENT
25. The Respondents admit and acknowledge that Singh realized a net amount of $34,000 from Investor A's investment and amounts withdrawn from the 2241153 Trading Account.
PART IV -- CONDUCT CONTRARY TO ONTARIO SECURITIES LAW AND THE PUBLIC INTEREST
26. By engaging in the conduct described above, the Respondents admit and acknowledge to having breached Ontario securities law by contravening subsection 25(1)(a) of the Act and having acted contrary to the public interest.
PART V -- POSITION OF THE RESPONDENTS
27. The Respondents request that the settlement hearing panel consider the following mitigating circumstances:
(a) The Respondents cooperated with Staff and provided considerable amounts of evidence to further Staff's investigation in this matter;
(b) The Respondents sought to settle this matter with Staff at the earliest opportunity and have foregone a full hearing, saving the Commission considerable time and resources;
(c) Singh has voluntarily agreed to pay any amounts that were obtained from Investor A and from the 2241153 Trading Account, totaling $34,000. Singh has further agreed to make such amounts available on the date of the approval of the Settlement Agreement;
(d) Singh had no knowledge whatsoever of foreign currency trading and was harmed by and suffered a significant loss through his own $50,000 investment with Todorov;
(e) The Respondents played a very limited role in the transaction that led to the trade involving Investor A. Singh subsequently returned funds to Investor A as part of her first interest payment, when Todorov refused to do so. Singh later also repeatedly contacted Todorov insisting on the return of Investor A's principal as well as his own, despite Todorov's refusal to do so;
(f) Singh was subsequently hospitalized and suffered depression as a result of his above-noted involvements with Todorov and his unsuccessful attempts to obtain the return of Investor A's and his own principal; and
(g) Singh was entirely unaware of Staff's investigation in relation to Todorov trading which had been ongoing at the time of the Singh Promissory Note and Investor A's Promissory Note and which resulted in a findings of fraud, unregistered trading and an illegal distribution by the Commission against Todorov in the RARE Decision. Had Singh been aware of this fact, he would have not had any involvement with Todorov.
