By making this 23 payment, Defendant relinquishes all legal and equitable right, title, and interest in 24 such funds and no part of the funds shall be returned to Defendant. 25 The Commission may enforce the Court’s judgment for disgorgement and 26 prejudgment interest by moving for civil contempt (and/or through other collection 27 procedures authorized by law) at any time after 14 days following entry of this Final 28 Judgment. Defendant shall pay post judgment interest on any delinquent amounts 3 1 pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1961.

Regardless of whether any such Fair Fund distribution is made, amounts 12 ordered to be paid as civil penalties pursuant to this Judgment shall be treated as 13 penalties paid to the government for all purposes, including all tax purposes. To 14 preserve the deterrent effect of the civil penalty, Defendant shall not, after offset or 15 reduction of any award of compensatory damages in any Related Investor Action 16 based on Defendant’s payment of disgorgement in this action, argue that he is entitled 17 to, nor shall he further benefit by, offset or reduction of such compensatory damages 18 award by the amount of any part of Defendant’s payment of a civil penalty in this 19 action (“Penalty Offset”).

Such a payment shall not be deemed an additional civil penalty 24 and shall not be deemed to change the amount of the civil penalty imposed in this 25 Judgment. For purposes of this paragraph, a “Related Investor Action” means a 26 private damages action brought against Defendant by or on behalf of one or more 27 investors based on substantially the same facts as alleged in the Complaint in this 28 action. 4 1 2 V.
