USA vs. Abraham Park Docket No.: SACR 23-00132-FWS-1

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).

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

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

Pursuant to the Sentencing Reform Act of 1984, it is the judgment of the Court that the defendant, Abraham Park, is
hereby committed on Counts 1 and 5 of the Indictment to the custody of the Bureau of Prisons for a term of 46 months.
This term consists of 46 months on each of Counts 1 and 5 of the Indictment, to be served concurrently.

Upon release from imprisonment, the defendant shall be placed on supervised release for a term of three (3) years. This
term consists of 3 years on each of Counts 1 and 5, to run concurrently under the following terms and conditions:

1. The defendant shall comply with the rules and regulations of the United States Probation & Pretrial Services
Office and Second Amended General Order 20-04.

2. During the period of community supervision, the defendant shall pay the special assessment and restitution in
accordance with this judgment's orders pertaining to such payment.

3. The defendant shall cooperate in the collection of a DNA sample from the defendant.

4. The defendant shall apply all monies received from income tax refunds, lottery winnings, inheritance,
judgments and any other financial gains to the Court-ordered financial obligation.

5. The defendant shall not engage, as whole or partial owner, employee or otherwise, in any business involving
loan programs, telemarketing activities, investment programs or any other business involving the solicitation of
funds or cold-calls to customers without the express approval of the Probation Officer prior to engaging in such
employment. Further, the defendant shall provide the Probation Officer with access to any and all business
records, client lists, and other records pertaining to the operation of any business owned, in whole or in part, by
the defendant, as directed by the Probation Officer.

6. The defendant shall not be self-employed nor be employed in a position that does not provide regular pay stubs
with the appropriate deductions for taxes, unless approved by the Probation Officer.

7. The defendant shall submit the defendant's person, property, house, residence, vehicle, papers, computers, cell
phones, other electronic communications or data storage devices or media, email accounts, social media
accounts, cloud storage accounts, or other areas under the defendant’s control, to a search conducted by a
United States Probation Officer or law enforcement officer. Failure to submit to a search may be grounds for
revocation. The defendant shall warn any other occupants that the premises may be subject to searches pursuant
to this condition. Any search pursuant to this condition will be conducted at a reasonable time and in a
reasonable manner upon reasonable suspicion that the defendant has violated a condition of his supervision and
that the areas to be searched contain evidence of this violation.
