The SEC staff will not recommend enforcement action under Section 206(4) of the Investment Advisers Act and Rule 206(4)-3 if a registered investment adviser pays UBS Securities LLC or its associated persons a cash fee for soliciting advisory clients, despite a Final Judgment from the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York that would otherwise preclude such payments. UBS Securities must comply with the Final Judgment, including the payment of disgorgement, penalties, and fines, and must disclose the Final Judgment in writing to each solicited person not less than 48 hours before contract entry or at the time of entry if the contract allows for penalty-free termination within 5 business days. This relief applies only to the Final Judgment and any related State Judgment, and not to other bases for disqualification under Rule 206(4)-3.
