"SOX Section 3(b)(1) gives the Sarbanes Oxley Act a sharp set of teeth, stating that any violation of SOX shall be treated for all purposes in the same manner as a violation of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), and any person violating SOX is subject to the same penalties as a violation of that Act or it’s rules and regulations. Therefore, any employer violating the whistle-blower provisions of SOX Section 1107 should also be concerned about the potential civil fines and penalties under the Exchange Act, which can be as high as $25 million against corporations and up to $5 million against individuals."
