WASHINGTON | Thu Sep 27, 2012 10:57am EDT

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Goldman Sachs Group Inc agreed to pay about $12 million to settle charges that it violated "pay-to-play" rules in a case involving undisclosed campaign contributions to Timothy Cahill, the former Massachusetts state treasurer who was a candidate for governor, U.S. securities regulators said on Thursday.

The Securities and Exchange Commission also charged Neil Morrison, a former investment banker at Goldman, in the case.

Goldman settled without admitting or denying the charges. The SEC's case against Morrison continues.
