A. Denial of Export Privileges of Reza
Mohammed Tabib
On May 8, 2007, in the U.S. District
Court for the Central District of
California, Reza Mohammed Tabib, a/k/
a Re Tabib and a/k/a Reza Tabib
(‘‘Tabib’’ or ‘‘Reza Tabib’’) following a
plea of guilty, was convicted of violating
the International Emergency Economic
Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1701–1706
(2000)) (‘‘IEEPA’’). Tabib pled guilty to
willfully attempting to export and
transship from the United States to Iran
aircraft parts, including approximately
three F–14 maintenance kits, without
obtaining from the U.S. Department of
the Treasury, Office of Foreign Assets
Control, a license or written
authorization for such export and
transshipment. Tabib was sentenced to
24 months of imprisonment followed by
three years of supervised release.
Section 11(h) of the Export
Administration Act of 1979, as amended
(currently codified at 50 U.S.C. app.
2401–2420 (2000)) (the ‘‘Act’’) 1 and
Section 766.25 of the Export
Administration Regulations (the
‘‘Regulations’’),2 provide, in pertinent
1 50 U.S.C. app. 2401–2420. Since August 21,
2001, the Act has been in lapse and the Preident,
through Executive Order 13222 of August 17, 2001
(3 CFR, 2001 Comp. 783 (2002)), as extended by the
Notice of August 15, 2007 (72 FR 46137, Aug. 16,
2007), has continued the Regulations in effect under
the International Emergency Economic Powers Act
(50 U.S.C. 1701–1706 (2000)) (‘‘IEEPA’’).
2 The Regulations are currently codified in the
Code of Federal Regulations at 15 CFR Parts 730–
774 (2008).

part, that ‘‘[t]he Director of Exporter
Services, in consultation with the
Director of the Office of Export
Enforcement, may deny export
privileges of any person who has been
convicted of a violation of * * *
IEEPA,’’ for a period not to exceed 10
years from the date of conviction. 15
CFR 766.25(a) and (d). In addition,
Section 750.8 of the Regulations states
that BIS’s Office of Exporter Services
may revoke any BIS licenses previously
issued in which the person had an
interest at the time of his conviction.
I have received notice of Tabib’s
conviction for violating the IEEPA, and
have provided notice and an
opportunity for Tabib to make a written
submission to the Bureau of Industry
and Security as provided in Section
766.25 of the Regulations. Having
received no submission from Tabib and,
following consultations with the Office
of Export Enforcement, including its
Director, I have decided to deny Tabib’s
export privileges under the Regulations
for a period of five years from the date
of Tabib’s conviction. I have also
decided to revoke all licenses issued
pursuant to the Act or Regulations in
which Tabib had an interest at the time
of his conviction.
B. Denial of Export Privileges of Related
Person
Pursuant to Sections 766.25(h) and
766.23 of the Regulations, the Director
of BIS’s Office of Exporter Services, in
consultation with the Director of BIS’s

Office of Export Enforcement, may take
action to name persons related to a
Respondent by ownership, control,
position of responsibility, affiliation, or
other connection in the conduct of trade
or business in order to prevent evasion
of a denial order. Tern Tabib, a/k/a Tern
Repic is Reza Tabib’s wife and business
partner. Tern Tabib pled guilty to
violating 18 U.S.C. 1001 in connection
with the attempted export by Reza Tabib
of F–14 aircraft parts to Iran, specifically
for willfully failing to file the Shipper’s
Export Declaration required for the
export, and was placed on probation for
two years. Tern Tabib is related to Reza
Tabib by ownership, control, position of
responsibility, affiliation, or other
connection in the conduct of trade or
business. BIS believes that naming Tern
Tabib as a person related to Reza Tabib
is necessary to avoid evasion of the
denial order against Reza Tabib.
As provided in Section 766.23 of the
Regulations, I gave notice to Tern Tabib
that her export privileges under the
Regulations could be denied for up to 10
years due to her relationship with Reza
Tabib and that BIS believes naming her
as a person related to Reza Tabib would
be necessary to prevent evasion of a
denial order imposed against Reza
Tabib. In providing such notice, I gave
Tern Tabib an opportunity to oppose
her addition to the Reza Tabib Denial
Order as a related party. Having
received no submission from Tern
Tabib, I have decided, following
consultations with the Office of Export
Enforcement, including its Director, to
name Tern Tabib as a Related Person to
the Reza Tabib Denial Order, thereby
denying her export privileges for five
years from the date of Reza Tabib’s
conviction.
I have also decided to revoke all
licenses issued pursuant to the Act or
Regulations in which the Related Person
had an interest at the time of Reza
Tabib’s conviction. The five-year denial
period will end on May 8, 2012.
Accordingly, it is hereby ordered:

A. Denial of Export Privileges of Reza Mohammed Tabib
On May 8, 2007, in the U.S. District Court for the Central District
of California, Reza Mohammed Tabib, a/k/a Re Tabib and a/k/a Reza Tabib
(``Tabib'' or ``Reza Tabib'') following a plea of guilty, was convicted
of violating the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (50 U.S.C.
1701-1706 (2000)) (``IEEPA''). Tabib pled guilty to willfully
attempting to export and transship from the United States to Iran
aircraft parts, including approximately three F-14 maintenance kits,
without obtaining from the U.S. Department of the Treasury, Office of
Foreign Assets Control, a license or written authorization for such
export and transshipment. Tabib was sentenced to 24 months of
imprisonment followed by three years of supervised release.
Section 11(h) of the Export Administration Act of 1979, as amended
(currently codified at 50 U.S.C. app. 2401-2420 (2000)) (the ``Act'')
\1\ and Section 766.25 of the Export Administration Regulations (the
``Regulations''),\2\ provide, in pertinent part, that ``[t]he Director
of Exporter Services, in consultation with the Director of the Office
of Export Enforcement, may deny export privileges of any person who has
been convicted of a violation of * * * IEEPA,'' for a period not to
exceed 10 years from the date of conviction. 15 CFR 766.25(a) and (d).
In addition, Section 750.8 of the Regulations states that BIS's Office
of Exporter Services may revoke any BIS licenses previously issued in
which the person had an interest at the time of his conviction.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ 50 U.S.C. app. 2401-2420. Since August 21, 2001, the Act has
been in lapse and the Preident, through Executive Order 13222 of
August 17, 2001 (3 CFR, 2001 Comp. 783 (2002)), as extended by the
Notice of August 15, 2007 (72 FR 46137, Aug. 16, 2007), has
continued the Regulations in effect under the International
Emergency Economic Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1701-1706 (2000))
(``IEEPA'').
\2\ The Regulations are currently codified in the Code of
Federal Regulations at 15 CFR Parts 730-774 (2008).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
I have received notice of Tabib's conviction for violating the
IEEPA, and have provided notice and an opportunity for Tabib to make a
written submission to the Bureau of Industry and Security as provided
in Section 766.25 of the Regulations. Having received no submission
from Tabib and, following consultations with the Office of Export
Enforcement, including its Director, I have decided to deny Tabib's
export privileges under the Regulations for a period of five years from
the date of Tabib's conviction. I have also decided to revoke all
licenses issued pursuant to the Act or Regulations in which Tabib had
an interest at the time of his conviction.
B. Denial of Export Privileges of Related Person
Pursuant to Sections 766.25(h) and 766.23 of the Regulations, the
Director of BIS's Office of Exporter Services, in consultation with the
Director of BIS's
[[Page 38972]]
Office of Export Enforcement, may take action to name persons related
to a Respondent by ownership, control, position of responsibility,
affiliation, or other connection in the conduct of trade or business in
order to prevent evasion of a denial order. Tern Tabib, a/k/a Tern
Repic is Reza Tabib's wife and business partner. Tern Tabib pled guilty
to violating 18 U.S.C. 1001 in connection with the attempted export by
Reza Tabib of F-14 aircraft parts to Iran, specifically for willfully
failing to file the Shipper's Export Declaration required for the
export, and was placed on probation for two years. Tern Tabib is
related to Reza Tabib by ownership, control, position of
responsibility, affiliation, or other connection in the conduct of
trade or business. BIS believes that naming Tern Tabib as a person
related to Reza Tabib is necessary to avoid evasion of the denial order
against Reza Tabib.
As provided in Section 766.23 of the Regulations, I gave notice to
Tern Tabib that her export privileges under the Regulations could be
denied for up to 10 years due to her relationship with Reza Tabib and
that BIS believes naming her as a person related to Reza Tabib would be
necessary to prevent evasion of a denial order imposed against Reza
Tabib. In providing such notice, I gave Tern Tabib an opportunity to
oppose her addition to the Reza Tabib Denial Order as a related party.
Having received no submission from Tern Tabib, I have decided,
following consultations with the Office of Export Enforcement,
including its Director, to name Tern Tabib as a Related Person to the
Reza Tabib Denial Order, thereby denying her export privileges for five
years from the date of Reza Tabib's conviction.
I have also decided to revoke all licenses issued pursuant to the
Act or Regulations in which the Related Person had an interest at the
time of Reza Tabib's conviction. The five-year denial period will end
on May 8, 2012.
Accordingly, it is hereby ordered:
I. Until May 8, 2012, Reza Mohammed Tabib, a/k/a Re Tabib and a/k/a
Reza Tabib, 31848 Via Del Paso, Winchester, CA 92596, when acting for
or on behalf of Tabib, his representatives, assigns, agents or
employees, (``the Denied Person'') and the following person related to
the Denied Person as defined by Section 766.23 of the Regulations: Tern
Tabib, a/k/a Tern Repic, 31848 Via Del Paso, Winchester, CA 92596, and
when acting for or on her behalf, her employees, agents or
representatives, (``the Related Person'') (together, the Denied Person
and the Related Person are ``Persons Subject To This Order'') may not,
directly or indirectly, participate in any way in any transaction
involving any commodity, software or technology (hereinafter

service involves the use of any item subject to the Regulations that
has been or will be exported from the United States. For purposes of
this paragraph, servicing means installation, maintenance, repair,

III. In addition to the Related Person named above, after notice
and opportunity for comment as provided in section 76623 of the
