On October 31, 2003, the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York (the "SDNY") approved the global settlement among a number of Wall Street firms, including CSFB LLC, and a coalition of state and federal regulators and self-regulatory organizations (the "Global Settlement"). CSFB LLC, without admitting or denying any alleged violation, consented to the Global Settlement and thereby resolved a Securities and Exchange Commission's ("SEC") complaint filed on April 28, 2003, in the SDNY. In this complaint, the SEC alleged that, from July 1998 to December 2001, CSFB LLC engaged in acts and practices that created or maintained inappropriate influence over research analysts, thereby imposing conflicts of interest on research analysts that CSFB LLC failed to manage in an adequate or appropriate manner. The SEC's complaint also alleged that CSFB LLC engaged in inappropriate "spinning" of "hot" initial public offering ("IPO") allocations in violation of New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") and NASD Inc. ("NASD") rules requiring adherence to high business standards and just and equitable principles of trade, and that CSFB LLC's books and records relating to certain transactions violated the broker-dealer record-keeping provisions of Section 17(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, NYSE Rules 401, 440 and 476(a)(6) and NASD Rules 2110 and 3110.

Under the terms of the Global Settlement:

CSFB LLC agreed to pay the following amounts: $75 million as a penalty, $75 million as disgorgement of commissions and other monies for restitution for investors, and $50 million to be used to fund independent research. This $50 million to fund independent research is payable over a five year period.

CSFB LLC is required, among other things, to: (i) separate its research and investment banking departments and make independent research available to investors, (ii) prohibit its analysts from receiving compensation for investment banking activities and prohibit analysts' involvement in investment banking "pitches" and "roadshows," (iii) contract, for a five-year period, with no fewer than three independent research firms that will make available independent research to CSFB LLC's customers, and (iv) make its analysts' historical price targets (among other things) publicly available.

CSFB LLC is permanently restrained and enjoined from violating Sections 15(c) and 17(a) of the Exchange Act, Exchange Act Rules 15c1-2 and 17a-3, NASD Rules 2110, 2210, 3010, and 3110, and NYSE Rules 342, 401, 440, 472, and 476.

Other Wall Street firms were subject to similar requirements.
