 Defendant: NATHAN REIS
 Case Number: 4:24-CR-00287-O(1)



                                                IMPRISONMENT

       The defendant, NATHAN REIS, is hereby committed to the custody of the Federal Bureau of Prisons
(BOP) to be imprisoned for a term of ONE HUNDRED TWENTY (120) MONTHS as to Count One of the
Superseding Indictment filed on May 8, 2025.

       The Court makes a non-binding recommendation to the BOP that Defendant, if appropriately classified,
be allowed to serve his term of imprisonment at FCI Bastrop.

      The Defendant is ordered to voluntarily surrender to the designated BOP facility before 2:00 pm on
Tuesday, January 20, 2026.

                                            SUPERVISED RELEASE

      Upon release from imprisonment, the defendant shall be placed on supervised release for a term of TWO
(2) YEARS as to Count One of the Superseding Indictment filed on May 8, 2025.

        As part of your supervised release, you must comply with the following standard conditions of
supervision. These conditions are imposed because they establish the basic expectations for your behavior while
on supervision and identify the minimum tools needed by probation officers to keep informed, report to the court
about, and bring about improvements in your conduct and condition.

( 1)    You must report to the probation office in the federal judicial district where you are authorized to
        reside within 72 hours of your release from imprisonment, unless the probation officer instructs
        you to report to a different probation office or within a different time frame.
( 2)    After initially reporting to the probation office, you will receive instructions from the court or the
        probation officer about how and when you must report to the probation officer, and you must report
        to the probation officer as instructed.
( 3)    You must not knowingly leave the federal judicial district where you are authorized to reside
        without first getting permission from the court or the probation officer.
( 4)    You must answer truthfully the questions asked by your probation officer.
( 5)    You must live at a place approved by the probation officer. If you plan to change where you live
        or anything about your living arrangements (such as the people you live with), you must notify the
        probation officer at least 10 days before the change. If notifying the probation officer in advance
        is not possible due to unanticipated circumstances, you must notify the probation officer within 72
        hours of becoming aware of a change or expected change.
( 6)    You must allow the probation officer to visit you at any time at your home or elsewhere, and you
        must permit the probation officer to take any items prohibited by the conditions of your supervision
        that he or she observes in plain view.
( 7)    You must work full time (at least 30 hours per week) at a lawful type of employment, unless the
        probation officer excuses you from doing so. If you do not have full-time employment you must
        try to find full-time employment, unless the probation officer excuses you from doing so. If you
        plan to change where you work or anything about your work (such as your position or your job
        responsibilities), you must notify the probation officer at least 10 days before the change. If
        notifying the probation officer at least 10 days in advance is not possible due to unanticipated
                                                          f

        circumstances, you must notify the probation officer within 72 hours of becoming aware of a
        change or expected change.
( 8)    You must not communicate or interact with someone you know is engaged in criminal activity. If
        you know someone has been convicted of a felony, you must not knowingly communicate or
        interact with that person without first getting the permission of the probation officer.
( 9)    If you are arrested or questioned by a law enforcement officer, you must notify the probation
        officer within 72 hours.
(10)    You must not own, possess, or have access to a firearm, ammunition, destructive device, or
        dangerous weapon (i.e., anything that was designed, or was modified for, the specific purpose of
        causing bodily injury or death to another person such as nunchakus or tasers).
(11)    You must not act or make any agreement with a law enforcement agency to act as a confidential
        human source or informant without first getting the permission of the court.
(12)    If the probation officer determines that you pose a risk to another person (including an
        organization), the probation officer may require you to notify the person about the risk and you
        must comply with that instruction. The probation officer may contact the person and confirm that
        you have notified the person about the risk.
(13)    You must follow the instructions of the probation officer related to the conditions of supervision.

        In addition the defendant shall:

        not commit another federal, state, or local crime;

        not illegally possess controlled substances;

        cooperate in the collection of DNA as directed by the probation officer;

        not possess a firearm, ammunition, destructive device, or any dangerous weapon;

        refrain from any unlawful use of a controlled substance. You must submit to one drug test within 15
        days of release from imprisonment and at least two periodic drug tests thereafter, as determined by the
        court;

        make restitution in accordance with 18 U.S.C. §§ 2248, 2259, 2264, 2327, 3663, 3663A, and 3664;

        pay the assessment imposed in accordance with 18 U.S.C. § 3013;

        not be employed by, affiliated with, own or control, or otherwise participate, directly or indirectly, in the
        business of submitting bank loans without the probation officer's approval;

        not incur new credit charges, or open additional lines of credit without the approval of the probation
        officer;

        provide to the probation officer complete access to all business and personal financial information; and,

Judgment in a Criminal Case                                                                         Page 4 of 5
Defendant: NATHAN REIS
Case Number: 4:24-CR-00287-O(1)



     take notice that if, upon commencement of the term of supervised release, any part of the
     $66,038,049.27 restitution ordered by this judgment remains unpaid, the defendant shall make payments
     on such unpaid balance in monthly installments of not less than 10 percent of the defendant's gross
     monthly income, or at a rate of not less than $1,000 per month, whichever is greater. Payment shall
     begin no later than 60 days after the defendant's release from confinement and shall continue each month
     thereafter until the balance is paid in full. Any unpaid balance of the restitution ordered by this judgment
     shall be paid in full 60 days prior to the termination of the term of supervised release. In addition, at
     least 50 percent of the receipts received from gifts, tax returns, inheritances, bonuses, lawsuit awards,
     and any other receipt of money shall be paid toward the unpaid balance within 15 days of receipt. This
     payment plan shall not affect the ability of the United States to immediately collect payment in full
     through garnishment, the Treasury Offset Program, the Inmate Financial Responsibility Program, the
     Federal Debt Collection Procedures Act of 1990 or any other means available under federal or state law.
     Furthermore, it is ordered that interest on the unpaid balance is waived pursuant to 18 U.S.C. §
     3612(f)(3).

                                              FINE/RESTITUTION

     The Court does not order a fine or costs of incarceration because the defendant does not have the financial
     resources or future earning capacity to pay a fine or costs of incarceration in addition to restitution.

     The Court further orders that defendant shall make restitution in the amount of $66,038,049.27. Of that,
     $63,952,063.64 shall be paid jointly and severally with codefendant Stephanie Hockridge (02) and
     coconspirator James Flores, Case No. 4:24-CR-306-Y, as well as defendants Eric Karnezis, Case No.
     3:23-CR-067-IM(01) and Anthony Karnezis, Case No. 3:25-CR-0052-IM(01), both pending in the District
     of Oregon.

     Restitution is payable immediately, but non-payment will not be a violation of defendant's conditions of
     supervised release so long as defendant pays as provided in defendant's conditions of supervised release.
     All restitution payments shall be made by defendant to the Clerk of the U.S. District Court, 501 West 10th
     Street, Room 310, Fort Worth, TX 76102, for disbursement to the following:

                                       Small Business Administration
                                              $66,038,049.27.


     The Court further orders that the defendant shall pay $2,500,000.00 toward restitution within 14 days of
     entry of the judgment. The Court orders that the defendant shall take the requisite action to commence
     and maintain a listing agreement on the following real property: (1) 7000 Bahia Beach No. 3301, Rio
     Grande, Puerto Rico; and (2) 7000 Bahia Beach No. 5501, Rio Grande, Puerto Rico. Defendant shall sell
     these properties and apply the proceeds to the restitution imposed as part of this criminal sentence.
     Defendant shall immediately notify the United States Attorney’s Office in writing of any and all offers
     made on either property, and shall not enter into any earnest money contracts, contracts for sale, or other
     agreements to sell either property without the written consent of the United States Attorney’s Office. If
     and when a sale has been arranged for either of these properties, defendant must notify the United States
     Attorney’s Office to monitor and approve the sale, and ultimately to ensure that all sales proceeds are
     applied to satisfy defendant’s outstanding restitution.
