The Small Business Administration
10. The United States Small Business Administration (“SBA”) was an executive-
branch agency of the United States government that provided support to entrepreneurs and
small businesses. The mission of the SBA was to maintain and strengthen the nation’s
economy by enabling the establishment and viability of small businesses and by assisting in
the economic recovery of communities after disasters.
The Paycheck Protection Program
11. The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (“CARES”) Act was a
federal law enacted in March 2020 that was designed to provide emergency financial
assistance to the millions of Americans who are suffering the economic effects caused by the
COVID-19 pandemic. One source of relief provided by the CARES Act was the
authorization of forgivable loans to small businesses for job retention and certain other
expenses, through a program referred to as the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”).
12. To obtain a PPP loan, a qualifying business was required to submit a PPP loan
Application (SBA Form 2483). The loan application required that it be signed by an
authorized representative of the business. The loan application also required the business
(through its authorized representative) to acknowledge the program rules and make certain
3
Case 1:21-cr-00009-JLS-HKS Document 36 Filed 01/27/21 Page 4 of 20
affirmative certifications in order to be eligible to obtain the PPP loan. In the PPP loan
application, the small business (through its authorized representative) was required to state,
among other things, its: (a) average monthly payroll expenses; and (b) number of employees.
These figures were used to calculate the amount of money the small business was eligible to
receive under the PPP. In addition, businesses applying for a PPP loan were sometimes
required to provide documentation showing their payroll expenses.
13. A PPP loan application was processed by a participating lender. If a PPP loan
application was approved, the participating lender funded the PPP loan using its own monies,
which were 100 percent guaranteed by the SBA. Data from the application, including
information about the borrower, the total amount of the loan, and the listed number of
employees, was transmitted by the lender to the SBA in the course of processing the loan.
14. PPP loan proceeds were required to be used on certain permissible expenses,
including payroll costs, mortgage interest, rent, and utilities. Under the applicable PPP rules
and guidance, the interest and principal on the PPP loan were eligible for forgiveness if the
business spent the loan proceeds on these expense items within a designated period of time
and used a certain portion of the loan towards payroll expenses.
Relevant Lending Institutions and Other Financial Institutions
15. Evolve Bank & Trust (“Evolve”) was a federally insured financial institution
based in Tennessee. Evolve was authorized by the SBA to participate as a PPP lender to
small businesses. Evolve approved a PPP application submitted on behalf of 5 Stems Inc.

transferred after Evolve approved a PPP application submitted on behalf of 5 Stems Inc.

institution based in North Carolina. Bank of America held accounts into which PPP funds
were transferred after Evolve approved a PPP application submitted on behalf of 5 Stems Inc.
18. Lendio was a financial technology company based in Utah. Lendio
participated in the SBA’s PPP by, among other things, receiving PPP loan applications and
matching those PPP loan applications with potential SBA approved lenders.
19. TD Ameritrade was a brokerage firm that offered an electronic platform for
trading financial assets. TD Ameritrade was based in Nebraska. TD Ameritrade held an
account into which PPP funds were transferred after Evolve approved a PPP application

PURPOSE OF THE CONSPIRACY
5. It was the purpose of the both the conspiracy and the scheme for the defendants
to unjustly enrich themselves and their businesses by fraudulently obtaining PPP loans by
means of materially false and fraudulent pretenses, representations, and promises.
MANNER AND MEANS OF THE CONSPIRACY
6. Beginning in or around April 2020, and continuing through in or around
September 2020, the defendants submitted, and caused to be submitted, eight fraudulent PPP
loan applications (collectively, the “PPP Loan Applications”). In support of the PPP Loan
Applications, the defendants submitted, and caused to be submitted, materially false and
fraudulent documentation purporting to substantiate the monthly payroll expenses and
employee count reported in each of the PPP Loan Applications. This supporting
documentation included false and fraudulent financial documents such as Internal Revenue
8
Case 1:21-cr-00009-JLS-HKS Document 36 Filed 01/27/21 Page 9 of 20
Services (“IRS”) forms, in which purported payroll expenses and the number of employees
were fabricated and inflated. The defendants also falsely certified on the PPP Loan
Applications that the PPP loan funds would be used to retain workers and cover payroll
expenses, and to make mortgage interest payments, lease payments, and/or utility payments.
In fact, however, the defendants intended to, and did in fact, use the funds largely for their
own personal enrichment.
7. In furtherance of both the conspiracy and the scheme, the defendants inflated
the 2019 average monthly payroll and the number of employees on the PPP Loan
Applications.
8. In furtherance of the both the conspiracy and scheme, the defendants
submitted, and caused to be submitted, purported IRS Form 940s and IRS Form 941s in
support of six of the PPP Loan Applications. The IRS Form 940s and IRS Form 941s
submitted in support of those six applications were false and fraudulent.
9. In furtherance of both the conspiracy and the scheme, the defendants
submitted, and caused to be submitted, false and fraudulent payroll registers in support of the
PPP Loan Applications.
10. As part of the conspiracy and in furtherance of the conspiracy, the defendants
communicated over text message about some of the fraudulent PPP Loan Applications.
a. On or about April 28, 2020, JORDAN sent a text message to SUTUKH
EL. The text included a screenshot of an email from Evolve, which
9
Case 1:21-cr-00009-JLS-HKS Document 36 Filed 01/27/21 Page 10 of 20
stated, in part, “We are pleased to inform you that your Paycheck
Protection Program Loan has been approved.” SUTUKH EL and
JORDAN then exchanged the following text messages:
SUTUKH EL: What company is that for
JORDAN: 465k
JORDAN: 5 stems
SUTUKH EL: We LiTT.
SUTUKH EL: Super LiTT.
b. On or about April 28, 2020, JORDAN sent another text message to
SUTUKH EL. The text included a screenshot of an email from another
lender, which stated, in part, “Congratulations! Yes, we received an
SBA authorization for 5 Stems, LLC. Someone from our closing
department will follow up with you with a closing checklist.” SUTUKH
EL and JORDAN then exchanged the following text messages:
SUTUKH EL: That the same one?
SUTUKH EL: 456k
JORDAN: No 5 stems of Kentucky
SUTUKH EL: Ohhhhhhh!!
SUTUKH EL: Huh Mannnnn!!!
SUTUKH EL: I know I cant get my truck painted Now!

SUTUKH EL: Wow, we like Fake Rich
SUTUKH EL: I gotta get Rich Rich. we got the tools Now
c. On or about April 28, 2020, JORDAN and SUTUKH EL also
exchanged text messages about whether they would pay back a PPP
loan.
JORDAN: We don’t even have to start paying back for 2 years
JORDAN: Or just show what they ask us to show
SUTUKH EL liked the message: “Or just show what they ask us to show”
SUTUKH EL: We’ll be in the billions by then anyway
SUTUKH EL: But definitely show what needs to be shown and write
that shit off!
11. In furtherance of both the conspiracy and the scheme, the defendants
fraudulently obtained approximately $605,200 in PPP loan proceeds from Evolve and used
those funds for personal enrichment.
a. On or about April 22, 2020, Application 2 (in the name of 5 Stems Inc)
was approved and Evolve funded the loan in the amount of
approximately $605,200. That same day, JORDAN authorized the
transfer of approximately $605,200 in PPP loan funds to a bank account
in the name of 5 Stems Inc at Regions.
b. After the PPP loan funds were deposited into the 5 Stems Inc account
at Regions, the defendants transferred or directed the transfer of the loan
proceeds to each other, or to entities controlled by the defendants,
enabling them to enrich themselves from the loan proceeds.
All in violation of Title 18, United States Code, Section 1349.
