authorization for such export, in
violation of AECA. Nwankwoala was
also convicted of knowingly and

followed by 24 months of supervised
release. Nwankwoala is also listed on

Section 766.25 of the Export
Administration Regulations (‘‘EAR’’ or
‘‘Regulations’’)1 provides, in pertinent
part, that ‘‘[t]he Director of the Office of
Exporter Services, in consultation with
the Director of the Office of Export

U.S.C. 793, 794 or 798; section 4(b) of
the Internal Security Act of 1950 (50
U.S.C. 783(b)), or section 38 of the Arms

CFR 766.25(a); see also Section 11(h) of
the EAA, 50 U.S.C. app. § 2410(h). The

provision may be for a period of up to

licenses previously issued in which the
person had an interest in at the time of
his conviction.
I have received notice of
Nwankwoala’s conviction for violating
AECA and IEEPA, and have provided
notice and an opportunity for
Nwankwoala to make a written
submission to BIS, as provided in
Section 766.25 of the Regulations. I have
received a submission from
Nwankwoala. Based upon my review
and consultations with BIS’s Office of
Export Enforcement, including its

I have decided to deny Nwankwoala’s
export privileges under the Regulations
for a period of 10 years from the date of
Nwankwoala’s conviction. I have also
decided to revoke all licenses issued
pursuant to the Act or Regulations in
which Nwankwoala had an interest at
the time of his conviction.
