  • Glencore's Shares Drop After Justice Department Subpoena
    WL SEIS Exhibit 9 https://www.nytimes.com/2018/07/03/business/glencore-subpoena-mining-commodities.html Glencore’s Shares Drop After Justice Department Subpoena By Stanley Reed and Michael J. de la Merced July 3, 2018 LONDON — Glencore, a Switzerland‑based mining and commodities trading giant, said on Tuesday that it had received a subpoena from the United States Department of Justice requesting documents in a money‑laundering and corruption investigation. The subpoena is tied to Glencore’s dealings in the Democratic Republic of Congo, Nigeria and Venezuela since 2007, and it seeks material related to “compliance with the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act” and with United States money‑laundering rules, the company said in a statement. News that American investigators were looking into Glencore’s businesses spooked investors, sending the company’s share price down as much as 13 percent at one point on Tuesday. By late afternoon in London, its stock price had recovered somewhat, but was still 5 percent lower. Charles Watenphul, a Glencore spokesman, said, “We got this letter last night; we are going through it.” While Glencore has not been charged with any crime, the development is a blow to one of the most powerful commodities mining and trading empires around, one that employs 146,000 workers around the world. With headquarters in Baar, near Zurich, the company is among the biggest producers of copper and of cobalt, a crucial component of batteries for electric vehicles and electronic devices like smartphones. (Cobalt is so important that the Trump administration has deemed it critical for American national security.) Glencore is also a major player in coal, with 26 mines in countries such as Australia, Colombia and South Africa.
