legal interest in the property, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED THAT:

1. The following property is forfeited to the United States pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 982
and/or 28 U.S.C. § 2461(c), provided, however, that forfeiture of specific assets is subject to any
and all third-party petitions under 21 U.S.C. § 853(n), pending final adjudication herein:

A forfeiture money judgment in the amount of $2,432,238, such amount constituting
the proceeds traceable to and property involved in the offenses to which Defendant
pled guilty. Defendant stipulates that the Government may satisfy the money
-judgment via forfeiture of proceeds of the crime as defined in 18 U.S.C. § 982 and/or
substitute property as defined in 21 U.S.C. § 853(p). For purposes of forfeiture under
Section 853(p), Defendant stipulates that, as a result of acts or omissions of Defendant,
one or more provisions of Section 853(p)(1)(A)-(E) are satisfied.

2. If and to the extent required by Fed. R. Crim. P. 32.2(b)(6), 21 U.S.C. § 853(n),
and/or other applicable law, the United States shall publish notice and provide direct written notice
of forfeiture.

3. Pursuant to Fed. R. Crim. P. 32.2(b)(3), upon entry of this order, the United States
Attorney’s Office is authorized to conduct any discovery needed to identify, locate, or dispose of
the property, including depositions, interrogatories, and requests for production of documents, and
to issue subpoenas pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 45.

4, A forfeiture money judgment shall be included in the defendant’s sentence, and the
United States may take steps to collect the judgment from any property of the defendant, provided,
the value of any forfeited specific assets shall be credited toward satisfaction of this money
judgment upon liquidation.

The parties stipulate and agree that the aforementioned asset(s) constitute property derived
from or traceable to proceeds of defendant’s crime(s) herein and are therefore subject to forfeiture
pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 982, and/or 28 U.S.C. § 2461(c). The defendant hereby waives the
