                     as charged and convicted and ordered that:

Pursuant to the Sentencing Reform Act of 1984, it is the judgment of the Court that the defendant, Gurgen
Israyelyan, is hereby committed on Counts 1, 2, and 3 of the Indictment to the custody of the Bureau of Prisons

6.       The defendant shall not commit any violation of local, state, or federal law or ordinance.

7.       The defendant shall comply with the immigration rules and regulations of the United States, and if deported
         from this country, either voluntarily or involuntarily, not reenter the United States illegally. The defendant is
         not required to report to the Probation & Pretrial Services Office while residing outside of the United States;
         however, within 72 hours of release from any custody or any reentry to the United States during the period of
         Court-ordered supervision, the defendant shall report for instructions to the United States Probation Office
         located at: the 300 N. Los Angeles Street, Suite 1300, Los Angeles, CA 90012-3323

It is ordered that the defendant shall pay to the United States a special assessment of $300, which is due immediately.
Any unpaid balance shall be due during the period of imprisonment, at the rate of not less than $25 per quarter, and
pursuant to the Bureau of Prisons' Inmate Financial Responsibility Program.

It is ordered that the defendant shall pay restitution in the total amount of $149,199.53 pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3663A.

The amount of restitution ordered shall be paid as follows:

Victim                                   Amount

Small Business Administration            $149,199.53

Restitution shall be due during the period of imprisonment, at the rate of not less than $25 per quarter, and pursuant to
the Bureau of Prisons' Inmate Financial Responsibility Program. If any amount of the restitution remains unpaid after
release from custody, nominal monthly payments of at least 10% of defendant's gross monthly income but not less than
$100, whichever is greater, shall be made during the period of supervised release and shall begin 90 days after the
commencement of supervision. Nominal restitution payments are ordered as the Court finds that the defendant's
economic circumstances do not allow for either immediate or future payment of the amount ordered.

Pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3612(f)(3)(A), interest on the restitution ordered is waived because the defendant does not have
the ability to pay interest. Payments may be subject to penalties for default and delinquency pursuant to 18 U.S.C. §
3612(g).

Pursuant to Guideline §5E1.2(a), all fines are waived as the Court finds that the defendant has established that he is
unable to pay and is not likely to become able to pay any fine.

The defendant shall comply with Second Amended General Order No. 20-04.

The Court has entered a money judgment of forfeiture against the defendant, which is hereby incorporated by reference
into this judgment and is final.

The drug testing condition mandated by statute is suspended based on the Court's determination that the defendant
poses a low risk of future substance abuse.

It is further ordered that the defendant surrender himself to the institution designated by the Bureau of Prisons by
12noon on February 27, 2023. In the absence of such designation, the defendant shall report on or before the same
date and time, to the United States Marshal located at the First Street U.S. Courthouse 350 W. First Street, Suite 3001,
Los Angeles, CA 90012.

Defendant informed of right to appeal.

          The defendant must notify the Court (through the Probation Office) and the United States Attorney of any material change in the
 defendant’s economic circumstances that might affect the defendant’s ability to pay a fine or restitution, as required by 18 U.S.C. § 3664(k).
 The Court may also accept such notification from the government or the victim, and may, on its own motion or that of a party or the victim,

            CONDITIONS OF PROBATION AND SUPERVISED RELEASE PERTAINING TO FINANCIAL SANCTIONS

          As directed by the Probation Officer, the defendant must provide to the Probation Officer: (1) a signed release authorizing credit
 report inquiries; (2) federal and state income tax returns or a signed release authorizing their disclosure and (3) an accurate financial
 statement, with supporting documentation as to all assets, income and expenses of the defendant. In addition, the defendant must not apply
 for any loan or open any line of credit without prior approval of the Probation Officer.

           When supervision begins, and at any time thereafter upon request of the Probation Officer, the defendant must produce to the
 Probation and Pretrial Services Office records of all bank or investments accounts to which the defendant has access, including any business
 or trust accounts. Thereafter, for the term of supervision, the defendant must notify and receive approval of the Probation Office in advance
 of opening a new account or modifying or closing an existing one, including adding or deleting signatories; changing the account number or
 name, address, or other identifying information affiliated with the account; or any other modification. If the Probation Office approves the
 new account, modification or closing, the defendant must give the Probation Officer all related account records within 10 days of opening,
 modifying or closing the account. The defendant must not direct or ask anyone else to open or maintain any account on the defendant’s
 behalf.

         The defendant must not transfer, sell, give away, or otherwise convey any asset with a fair market value in excess of $500 without
 approval of the Probation Officer until all financial obligations imposed by the Court have been satisfied in full.

                                These conditions are in addition to any other conditions imposed by this judgment.

Upon a finding of violation of probation or supervised release, I understand that the court may (1) revoke supervision, (2) extend the term of
supervision, and/or (3) modify the conditions of supervision.

         These conditions have been read to me. I fully understand the conditions and have been provided a copy of them.


         (Signed)
                     Defendant                                                      Date
