ΑΝΑΝΕΩΜΕΝΟΛοιπόν, το θέμα είναι απλό. Γύρω στα μέσα του 2000, ποιά στελέχη της ΔΕΗ υπέγραψαν να αγοραστεί εξοπλισμός από την αμερικανική εταιρία Control Components Inc. (CCI); Συγκεκριμένα, βαλβίδες αντικατάστασης και εξυπηρέτηση των υφιστάμενων βαλβίδων στους σταθμούς παραγωγής ηλεκτρικής ενέργειας Αμυνταίου και Αγίου Δημητρίου.

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE CENTRAL DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

SOUTHERN DIVISION

PLEA AGREEMENT FOR DEFENDANT DAVID EDMONDS

One of CCI’s customers was the Public Power Corporation of

Greece (“Public Power”), which owned and operated the Amynteon

and Aghios Dimitrios power plants. Defendant EDMONDS knew Public

Power was a Greek state-owned entity. Defendant EDMONDS

understands that at any trial, the government would prove

sufficient facts to demonstrate that Public Power was a

government instrumentality within the meaning of the FCPA, Title

15, United States Code, Section 78dd-2(h)(2)(A) and its employees

“foreign officials” within the meaning of the FCPA.

In or about 2000, CCI sought to obtain a contract for

replacement valves and the servicing of existing valves at the

Amynteon and Aghios Dimitrios power plants. On or about May 9,

2000, a CCI employee sought permission from defendant EDMONDS via

e-mail to pay a representative approximately $45,000 as the

representative “has obligations to pay some friends with the

commission.” On or about May 15, 2000, defendant EDMONDS

responded in an e-mail as follows: “I approve the 15% commission

to [the representative] for [the Amynteon and Aghios Dimitrios

orders].”

Although defendant EDMONDS did not actually know that the

approximately $45,000 was to be offered, given, or promised to an

employee at Public Power for the purpose of securing Public

Power’s business, he was aware of a high probability of this

circumstance and failed to make additional inquiries concerning

the nature of the commission and the suspected recipient in order

to determine whether the proposed commission payment might be

made to an employee at Public Power for the purpose of securing

Public Power’s business. This awareness arose, at least in part,

from defendant EDMONDS’s knowledge that, as described above,

CCI’s sales model included the cultivation of FICs who sometimes

included employees of CCI’s customers.

Although defendant EDMONDS did not know about the

prohibitions of the FCPA, defendant EDMONDS was aware that the

law would forbid making an undisclosed payment to an employee of

a customer for the purpose of securing the customer’s business.
