       3.      MCGOWEN was the 100% owner of Reality RV and Trailers Inc ("Reality

RV"). Reality RV's registered address was 4843 Portland Road Northeast, Salem, Oregon.

       4.      MCGOWEN was the 100% owner of Valley Investment Company dba Casey's

Restaurant Inc. ("Valley Investment"). Valley Investment's registered address was 3180 West

Sahara Ave. C-16, Las Vegas, Nevada.

       5.      MCGOWEN was the 50% owner of Reality Auto. Reality Auto's registered

                                 COVID Disaster-Relief Loans

       6.      The Economic Injury Disaster Loan ("EIDL") program was a Small Business

Administration ("SBA") program that provides low-interest financing to small businesses,

renters, and homeowners affected by declared disasters.

       7.      On March 27, 2020, President Trump signed the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and

Economic Security (CARES) Act into law. That statute, along with the Coronavirus

Preparedness and Response Supplemental Appropriations Act, authorized the SBA to provide

EIDLs of up to $2 million to eligible small businesses experiencing substantial financial

disruption due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition, the CARES Act authorized the SBA to

issue advances of up to $10,000 to small businesses within three days of applying for an EIDL.

The amount of any advance was determined by the number of employees on the borrower's

payroll. The advances did not have to be repaid.

       8.      The CARES Act also created the Paycheck Protection Program ("PPP"), which

authorized the SBA to guarantee loans of up to $10,000,000 to qualifying employers without

collateral or personal guarantees from the borrowers. The Act required lenders making loans

under the PPP to defer all repayment obligations for not less than six months on such loans and

required borrowers to certify, among other things, that the borrowed "funds [would] be used to

retain workers and maintain payroll or make mortgage payments, lease payments, and utility

payments."

        9.     On March 11, 2021, President Joseph Biden signed the American Rescue Plan

Act, which established the Restaurant Revitalization Fund ("RRF") and appropriated $28.6

billion to the SBA for the purpose of making grants under that program. The SBA was

authorized to award RRF grants of up to $5,000,000 per location (not to exceed $10,000,000

total for the Application and any affiliated businesses) to restaurants, bars, and similar ventures

to help offset revenue losses resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic and related mitigation

measures. Grant funds expended for authorized purposes before March 11, 2023, did not need to

be repaid.

       10.     In order to obtain an EIDL, PPP, or RRF funds, an applicant was required to

provide information about the subject business's operations, such as the date of opening, number

of employees, and past revenues. The applicant was also required to certify that all the

information in the application was true and correct to the best of the applicant's knowledge.

       11.     Applications for EIDLs and EIDL advances were submitted to the SBA over the

Internet, using cloud-based platforms hosted on computer servers in several states. Before July

11, 2020, applications bearing numbers that began with the digits 33 were routed to servers in the

State of Iowa. Beginning on July 11, 2020, all EIDL applications, regardless of number, were

routed to servers in the State of Iowa.

       12.     PPP loan applications were submitted over the Internet to participating lenders via

the SBA's computer servers. PPP loan applications submitted after January 11, 2021, were

routed through servers located in the State of Oregon.

        13.        SBA transmitted PPP lender processing fees to the lender from Sterling, Virginia.

        14.    Applications for RRF grants were submitted through servers in the State of

Oregon, which forwarded information from approved applications to the servers in the

Commonwealth of Virginia.

                                          (18 u.s.c. § 1343)

        15.    The allegations in paragraph 1 are incorporated as though realleged herein.

        16.    Beginning in or about August 2016 and continuing until in or about December

2018, in the District of Oregon, defendant MCGOWEN knowingly and intentionally devised

and intended to devise a scheme and artifice to defraud as to material matters and to obtain

money and property by means of materially false and fraudulent pretenses, representations,

promises, and omissions of material facts.

THE SCHEME

        17.    MCGOWEN, on behalf of SOI, agreed to process Al's Trailer's payroll and

calculate taxes.

        18.    At the end of each of Al's Trailer's pay periods, MCGOWEN would provide

Al's Trailer's with SOI paystubs detailing income withholding and payroll tax withholding for

each employees' paycheck. MCGOWEN would also submit a billing request for payment of

the gross employee payroll and for payment for SOi's services.

        19.    Upon receipt of payment from Al's Trailer's for gross employee payroll,

MCGOWEN withheld income and payroll taxes from Al's Trailer's employees.

        20.    MCGOWEN paid Al's Trailer's employees in two ways. First, MCGOWEN

paid Al's Trailer's employees via checks from SOI bank accounts at Bank of America and Key

Indictment                                                                                    Page4

Banl<. SOI's Bank of America and Key Bank accounts are both located in Oregon and were

almost solely used to process Al's Trailer's payroll. Second, MCGOWEN paid Al's Trailer's

employees via direct deposit transfers through Intuit Payroll. For the direct deposit payments,

MCGOWEN transferred funds from SOi's Bank of America or Key Bank accounts in Oregon to

Intuit Payroll's JPMC Chase account in Texas. Intuit Payroll would then direct deposit the funds

to Al's Trailer's employees' bank accounts.

       21.     Although MCGOWEN withheld income and payroll taxes from Al's Trailer's

employees, MCGOWEN never paid over any federal income withholding or payroll taxes to the

Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") and instead used those funds for personal expenditures.

       22.    In 2016, MCGOWEN improperly retained approximately $92,028 of federal

income withholding and payroll taxes from Al's Trailer.

       23.    In 2017, MCGOWEN improperly retained approximately $328,739 of federal

income withholding and payroll taxes from Al's Trailer.

       24.    In 2018, MCGOWEN improperly retained approximately $284,846 of federal

income withholding and payroll taxes from Al's Trailer.

                                        WIRE FRAUD

       25.    On or about November 2, 2017, defendant JAMIE MCGOWEN, in the district

of Oregon and elsewhere, for purposes of attempting to execute and executing the above­

described material scheme to defraud knowingly caused an interstate wire communication from

Oregon to Texas, to wit, a transfer of $55,303.34 from SOI's Key Bank account in Oregon

ending in 5414 to Intuit Payroll's JMPC Chase account in Texas ending in 6653.

THE SCHEME

        29.    From not later than April 3, 2020 and continuing through at least May 26, 2021,

defendant MCGOWEN devised and intended to devise a material scheme to defraud the SBA

and various financial institutions and to obtain money and property by means of materially false

and fraudulent pretenses, representations, and promises.

       30.     Specifically, MCGOWEN applied for and obtained PPP, EIDL, and RRF loans

and grants, using materially false information with the intent to steal and to convert the proceeds

of those loans to her personal use and without any intent to use the proceeds thereof for any

authorized purpose.

MANNER AND MEANS

It was part of this scheme that:

                              PPP APPLICATION-AL'S TRAILER

       31.     MCGOWEN applied for one PPP loan on behalf of Al's Trailer.

       32.     Between on or about April 11, 2019, and January 13, 2020, the IRS received four

2019 IRS Form 941s on behalf of Al's Trailer that reported the following information:

       33.     On or about January 15, 2020, on behalf of Al's Trailer, the IRS received IRS

Form 940 for 2019 reporting yearly wages, tips, and other compensation totaling $1,616,616.61.

       34.     On or about April 3, 2020, MCGOWEN submitted PPP application number

15988848 to Bank of America (PPP -AL'S TRAILER). In PPP -AL'S TRAILER,

MCGOWEN indicated that she was Al's Trailer's 100% owner. She falsely reported that Al's

Trailer had an average monthly payroll of$183,750 and employed 70 people. MCGOWEN

answered "No" to the following question: "Is the Applicant or any owner of the business an

owner of any other business, or have common management with, any other business?"

MCGOWEN knew that answer to be false. MCGOWEN certified that she was "not engaged in

any activity that is illegal under federal, state or local law." MCGOWEN knew that

certification to be false.

        35.     In support of PPP-AL'S TRAILER, MCGOWEN submitted four false 2019

IRS Form 941s, all of which differ than those submitted to the IRS and described in paragraph

32:
 Period           No. of    Wages, Tips, or          Federal Income      Total Taxes After

        36.     In support of PPP-AL'S TRAILER, MCGOWEN submitted a false 2019 W-3,

Transmittal of Wages and Tax Statements, reporting wages, tips, and other compensation

totaling $2,205,005.55 with federal income tax withheld as $212,700.13. This information is

inconsistent with the information reported in Al Trailer's 2019 IRS Form 940 described in

paragraph 33.

        37.     Based in part on the misrepresentations and false information provided in support

of PPP-AL'S TRAILER, Bank of America approved and funded PPP loan number 62681277-

01 in the amount of$454,532. This amount was funded to Al's Trailer's Bank of America bank

account number XXXX:1482 in Oregon.

       38.    On June 25, 2020, the SBA paid Banlc of America $13,636 in lender processing

fees in connection with PPP-AL'S TRAILER.

                                    PPP - REALITY RV

filed on behalf of Reality RV that reported between January and March 2020, Reality RV

employed 0 people who received wages, tips or other compensation totaling $0.

21723838 to FC Marketplace LLC (dba Funding Circle) on behalf of Reality RV (PPP-

REALITY RV). In PPP-REALITY RV, MCGOWEN indicated that she was Reality RV's

100% owner. She falsely reported that Reality RV had an average monthly payroll of $117,272

and employed 33 people. MCGOWEN answered "No" to the following question: Is the

Applicant or any owner of the business an owner of any other business, or have common

management with, any other business?". MCGOWEN knew that answer to be false.

MCGOWEN certified that she was "not engaged in any activity that is illegal under federal,

state or local law." MCGOWEN knew that certification to be false.

       41.    Based in part on the misrepresentations and false information provided in support

of PPP- REALITY RV, FC Marketplace LLC (dba Funding Circle) approved and funded PPP

loan number 98284080-04 in the amount of $293,180. This amount was funded to Reality RV's

JPMC bank account number XXXX0756 in Oregon.

       42.    On July 27, 2020, the SBA paid $14,659 in lender fees in connection with PPP-
