AMENDED COMPLAINT

Plaintiffs MRP UO Partners, LLC (MRP UO) and Harris UO Investors, LLC (Harris

UO), suing both individually and derivatively on behalf of and for the benefit of Nominal

Defendant MakeOffices, LLC (MakeOffices or the Company), by counsel, hereby file this

Amended Complaint against Defendants Raymond Rahbar, Jr.; Iz Best Bro LLC ( IBB ), Best

Inbestuhment, LLC; Chris Junior; Mahrou Rahbar; Raymond Rahbar, Sr.; Jaimie Shapiro; Eric

Raezer; Reid Fetters; Brian Bharwani; Raezer and Fetters, LLC, Raezer Construction, LLC, and

Raezer Sponsors LLC (collectively, the Raezer Entities); and American Majestic Construction

L.L.C., alleging as follows:

NATURE OF THE CASE

1. This action arises from the mismanagement, misconduct, misappropriation of

Company funds, and breaches of the Company operating agreement by Defendant Raymond

Rahbar, Jr. (Rahbar), the Companys former Chief Executive Officer and Treasurer, and
Katten
KattenMuchInRosenman llp
numerous persons and entities associated with the Company and/or Rahbar. MakeOffices is a

202.625.3500 tel
Virginia company that leases office space in order to sublease portions of the space to companies
202.298.7570 fax
and individuals on a temporary basis. Plaintiffs are Members of the Company and control a

majority of its Board, having the right to appoint two of its three Directors (i.e...., the MRP

Director and Harris Director). The third Director on the Board is controlled by Defendant Iz

Best Bro LLC, an entity owned and controlled by Rahbar. Rahbar has acted as the CEO and

Treasurer of MakeOffices since its formation in 2011.

2. Plaintiffs recently learned that Rahbar has been grossly mismanaging the

Company in numerous ways, including by misappropriating millions of dollars of Company

funds. Rahbar has used Company funds for his own personal gain by, for example, (1) diverting

to himself and his longtime friend, Defendant Eric Raezer, more than $600,000 in lease

commissions from MakeOfficess tenant broker, Avison Young, that should have been paid

directly to the Company pursuant to profit-sharing agreements with Avison Young; (2) falsifying

Company records and bank documents to inflate the build-out costs of its locations by at least

hundreds of thousands of dollars, in order to capture the inflated funds for personal use;

(3) taking more than $715,000 from the Company in the form of distributions to IBB even

though the terms of the Companys operating agreement prohibited the distributions, and while

making only nominal distributions to other Members and no distributions at all to Plaintiffs,

(4) making a sham agreement for the Company, including falsifying the notary seal on the

agreement, to pay Rahbars friend, Defendant Raezer, $1 million for purported consulting

services that Raezer never actually provided to the Company a substantial part of which was

immediately paid back to Rahbar directly; (5) wasting hundreds of thousands of dollars of

Company funds on excessive and unnecessary travel and entertainment that were not legitimate
Katten
KattenMuchinRosenman llp business expenses, including a trip to the Redskins game in London; (6) failing to account for
2900 K Street NW

Washington, DC 20007-5118
202.625.3500 tel tens of thousands of dollars in credit card expenses and reimbursements paid by the Companys
202.298.7570 fex

2
tenant broker, Avison Young; (7) diverting company funds on deposit at EagleBank to accounts

Rahbar set up at other financial institutions and creating special purpose entities outside of the

Companys ordinary course of business without seeking or obtaining the approval of the Board

of Directors, which placed the Company in technical default of its loan obligations with

EagleBank; (8) retaining his personal accountant to falsely validate (without any actual audit or

review) the financial statements of the Company in response to requests by prospective landlords

for verification of the Companys financial status; and (9) frequently writing checks totaling in

the hundreds of thousands of dollars without explanation, notice, or board approval for personal

benefits unrelated to Company business, including repayment of Rahbars student loans.

i. To protect the Company and their own investments in it, Plaintiffs, representing a

majority of the Board and acting through the MRP Director and Harris Director, voted to remove

Rahbar as CEO and Treasurer in accordance with the removal procedures of the Company s

operating agreement (defined below). However, Rahbar has defied the Board s action, has

refused to relinquish his positions as CEO and Treasurer; and now claims that, months prior, he

secretly appointed two shadow directors to the Board, his friend. Defendant Raezer, and

Defendant Jaimie Shapiro, in an attempt to divest Plaintiffs of their majority vote on the Board.

Rahbar has also orchestrated a campaign to deny Plaintiffs access to the books and records of the

Company as well as to those held by third parties including various banks, in order to prevent

Plaintiffs from discovering the full extent of his misconduct.

4. Rahbars conduct is part of a desperate and transparent scheme to retain control of

the Company so as to cover up years of mismanagement and financial impropriety and to


Katten
KattenMuchInRosenman llp maintain his lavish lifestyle that is paid for with misappropriated Company funds. As further

explained below, the other Defendants named herein all have actively participated in various

aspects of Rahbars schemes and wrongfully benefitted from them. Plaintiffs bring this action to

enforce the terms of the Companys operating agreement, to recover all misappropriated

Company funds, and to recover damages for the harm Defendants misconduct caused to the

Company and to Plaintiffs individually.

FACTS COMMON TO ALL COUNTS

I. THE COMPANY

24. MakeOffices, LLC is a Virginia company that leases office space around the

country in order to sublease portions of the space to companies and individuals on a temporary

basis. It was founded in 2011 under the name Uber Offices, LLC (sometimes abbreviated as
UO). On February 4, 2016, the Company officially changed its name to MakeOffices, LLC
Katten
KattenMuchinRosenman llp
(sometimes abbreviated as MO).

25. MRP UO became a member of MakeOffices on December 31, 2014 pursuant to

the Companys Amended and Restated Operating Agreement of the same date (the 2014

Operating Agreement). At the time, the other members of the Company were: (1) Defendant Iz

Best Bro LLC (a/k/a IBB), (2) Current Yield With Participation Fund I, LLC (CYWPF), and

(3) Best Inbestuhment, LLC (Best Inbestuhment). IBB is controlled by Defendant Rahbar, and

Best Inbestuhment is controlled by Rahbars longtime friend, Defendant Chris Junior, who

reportedly was a co-founder of MakeOffices,

26. The 2014 Operating Agreement appointed Rahbar as CEO and Treasurer. He

served in those positions until August 3, 2016, when Plaintiffs terminated him as CEO and

Treasurer due to his mismanagement of the Company and his misappropriation of Company

funds, as more particularly described below.

27. The 2014 Operating Agreement also appointed two Directors; Rahhar on behalf

of IBB (the IBB Director) and J. Zachary Wade on behalf of MRP UO (the MRP Director).

28. The 2014 Operating Agreement required each Member of the Company to make a

Capital Contribution. MRP UOs required Capital Contribution was $2.7 million. However, the

2014 Operating Agreement expressly recognized that MRP UO, being a new member, had not

yet satisfied its capital contribution obligation. Therefore, the 2014 Operating Agreement

provided that MRP UO would be allowed to make its capital contributions in cash or via letters

of credit or other credit enhancement for the benefit of the Companys business operations. At

the time the 2014 Operating Agreement was executed, MRP UO contributed $100,000 in cash to

the Company. It subsequently made several additional contributions of letters of credit totaling
Katten
KattenMuchinRosenman llp $2,721,671.68, more than satisfying its required Capital Contribution in the 2014 Operating

On April 15, 2015, a letter of credit in the amount of $1,500,000.00 to be used as a


security deposit for property located at 350 N. Orleans Street in Chicago, Illinois,

On April 29, 2015, a letter of credit in the amount of $407,644.00 to be used as a security
deposit for property located at 541 N. Fairbanks Court in Chicago, Illinois;

On April 29, 2015, a letter of credit in the amount of $256,027.68 to be used as a security
deposit for property located at 12110 Sunset Hills Road in Reston, Virginia,

On May 15, 2015, a cash payment in the amount of $50,000.00; and

On June 18, 2015, a letter of credit in the amount of $408,000.00 to be used as a security
deposit for property located at 1 North State Street in Chicago, Illinois.

29. On April 27, 2015, the Company, IBB and MRP UO entered into a letter

agreement in which they clarified, and ratified, how the MRP UO letters of credit were to be

structured and actually increased MRP UOs contribution burden by requiring it to renew its

letters of credit over a nine-year period as they burned off or were released. A true, accurate,

and complete copy of the April 27, 2015 letter agreement (the Letter Agreemenf) is attached

hereto as Exhibit 1. The Letter Agreement expressly recognizes MRP UO to be in full

satisfaction of its capital contribution obligation through the payment of the above letters of

credit. Id,, at 2 (The parties below acknowledge and agree that the obligations of MRP

hereunder are in full satisfaction of the MRP Contribution).

30. To obtain the above-listed letters of credit for MakeOffices, MRP UO was

required to spend tens of thousands of dollars in fees and transactional costs and, further, to

secure the letters of credit by burdening certain of its real property holdings worth many millions

of dollars for many years. In conjunction with obtaining these letters of credit, certain of the
Katten

2900 K Street NW principals of MRP UO executed a guaranty, under which they are also personally liable for the

202.298.7570 fax amount of any draw under the letters of credit.

9
31. On September 29, 2015, the Company and several of Rahbars approved affiliates

entered into a Facility Agreement with Eagle Bancorp, Inc. d/b/a EagleBank (EagleBank or the

Bank) in which the Bank agreed to make a credit facility available to further fund Company

operations. A true, accurate, and complete copy of the Facility Agreement is attached hereto as

Exhibit 2. The Facility Agreement contemplates a maximum principal amount of $10 million

(the Loan), which is comprised of (a) a revolving line of credit for the Company in the amount

of $3 million, and (b) a letters of credit facility for use by the Company and its subsidiaries in the

aggregate amount of $7 million. As a condition to making the Loan, the Bank required Potomac

Investment Trust (the Guarantor) to execute a guaranty agreement pursuant to which it

guaranteed repayment of a portion of the Loan. Ronald D. Paul, who is a member of Harris UO,

is the grantor of the Potomac Investment Trust.

32. Also, MRP UO and its principals, Rahbar, IBB, and Harris UO (collectively, the

Indemnitors) entered into a Payment and Indemnification Agreement in favor of the Guarantor

in which they agreed to provide a proportionate share of any losses, costs, expenses, damages,

claims and/or liability incurred by the Guarantor in connection with payment under the Guaranty.

33. On September 30, 2015, the Members of the Company (including MRP UO, IBB,

CYWPF, and Best Inbestuhment, along with the latest investor. Plaintiff Harris UO)

(collectively, the Members) amended and restated the 2014 Operating Agreement via the

current operating agreement for the Company (the Operating Agreement). A true, accurate,

and complete copy of the Operating Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 3. The Operating

Agreement was specifically created to recognize the addition of Plaintiff Harris UO as a Class A

34. The Operating Agreement again appointed Rahbar as the IBB Director; Wade as

the MRP Director; and, in addition, it appointed Ronald Paul as the Harris Director. ^ Exhibit

3, Section 4.2. Rahbar was once again appointed as the CEO and Treasurer. Id,, Section 5.1.1.

II. THE OPERATING AGREEMENT

35. In addition to appointing Rahbar as the Companys CEO, Section 5.1.1 of the

Operating Agreement describes the procedures for removing him from that office. If the Board

consists of fewer than four members, as it always has, Rahbar may be removed as CEO upon the

unanimous approval of the Harris Director and the MRP Director. However, if the Board

consists of four or more members, the approval of a majority of the Board is necessary to remove

Rahbar as CEO. In either case, Rahbar cannot vote upon his removal, regardless of whether he is

the IBB Director at the time. Section 5.1.1 provides, in full, as follows:

For so long as the Board consists of fewer than four (4) members,
Raymond Rahbar may be removed from the office of Chief Executive Officer
only by the unanimous approval of the Harris Director and the MRP
Director. At such time as the Board consists of four (4) or more members,
Raymond Rahbar may be removed from the office of Chief Executive Officer by
the approval of a majority of the Board, in accordance with Article IV. For the
avoidance of doubt, Raymond Rahbar shall not, under any circumstance,
have the right to vote upon his removal from the office of Chief Executive
Officer, regardless of whether he is the IBB Director or otherwise.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Article IV above, any
replacement of Raymond Rahbar as Chief Executive Officer, including
replacement due to his removal pursuant to the previous two sentences, must be
approved by the Board.

Exhibit 3, at 10-11 (emphasis added).

36. Upon his removal as CEO pursuant to Section 5.1.1, Rahbar is also automatically

removed from the office of Treasurer:

removed from the office of Treasurer, unless otherwise approved by a majority of
202.298.7570 fax
the Board of Directors.

11
Exhibit 3, Section 5.1.4.

37. Under Section 4.6, the Board may take any action authorized by the Operating

Agreement, including removing Rahbar as CEO, without the need for a meeting as long as the

Boards action is memorialized in a writing setting forth the action taken and indicating that the

requisite Members consent to such action. Section 4.6 of the Operating Agreement provides, m

full, as follows;

4.6 Action by the Board of Directors Without a Meeting. All actions


of the Board of Directors provided for herein may be taken by written consent
without a meeting. Any such action which may be taken without a meeting shall
be effective only if the consents are in writing, set forth the action so taken, and
are agreed to in writing by all of the Directors then holding office.

Exhibit 3, at 9.

38. As noted above, under Section 5.1.1, Rahbars removal as CEO does not, for

obvious reasons, require the approval of Rahbar himself as the IBB Director and, instead,

requires the unanimous approval of only the Harris Director and the MRP Director. See Exhibit

3, at 10 (Raymond Rahbar shall not, under any circumstances, have the right to vote upon his

removal from the office of [CEO], regardless of whether he is the IBB Director or otherwise).

39. In contrast. Section 7.2.1 lists several actions which may not be taken by the
Company without the affirmative vote or approval of a Majority m Interest, which is defined to

mean for ah purposes ... the approval of IBB, Harris and MRP. IR, at 15 (emphasis added).

This means that, in effect, IBB, Harris, and MRP each has a right to veto a proposed action

requiring the approval of a Majority in Interest. Section 7.2.1 provides, in pertinent part, as

follows;
Katten 7.2.1 General Voting Rights. The Company may not take any of the

202.298.7570 fax applicable, or their respective Affiliates, continue to be Members of the
Company) require the approval of IBB, Harris and MRP);

12
7.2.1.1 ... any sale, transfer, leases or any other disposition of any
material asset or business of the Company or of any subsidiary or consent or
agree to or enter into any agreement to do any of the foregoing[;]

7.2.1.5 sell, transfer, lease, license or otherwise dispose of any assets


or intellectual property of the Company in an amount greater than $100,000,
other than sales, transfers, leases, licenses or dispositions in the Companys
ordinary course of business[;]

7.2.1.9 pay or declare any dividend or distribution on any Membership


Units of the Company (other than distributions described in Section 10.1
and 10.3 below);
7.2.1.10 adopt, approve, amend, or modify any equity incentive plan;

7.2.1.12 increase or decrease the authorized number of Directors


constituting the Board of Directors;

7.2.1.13 create any subsidiary (excepting any subsidiaries created in


the ordinary course of the Companys business such as new tenant special
purpose entities) or acquire capital stock or other equity interest in, or
acquire all or substantially all of the assets of, another entity, including by
way of exclusive license [;]

7.2.1.14 change the accountants employed by the Company or change


the method of accounting employed by the Company[.]

Exhibit 3, at 15-16 (emphasis added).

40. Section 7.2.1 is consistent with the definition of Majority in Interesf in Section

1.1.19, which provides as follows;

1.1.19 Majority in Interest means a combination of Members who,


in the aggregate, control more than fifty percent (50%) of the votes associated
with the Membership Units of all classes owned by all Members.
Katten Exhibit 3, at 3 (emphasis added). Moreover, under Section 1.1.20, the singular term, Member,
KattenMuchinRosenman llp

2900 K Street NW
North Tower - Suite 200
Washington, DC 20007-5118 is defined to mean each Person designated as a Member of the Company, whereas the plural
202.625.3500 tel
202.298.7570 fax

term, Members, 9? 44 refers to any two or more such Persons. Id (emphasis added). Thus, the

13
use of the phrase a combination of Members in Section 1.1.19 - as opposed to one or more

or a Member or Members, for example - was clearly intentional. By requiring a combination

of Members, the Operating Agreement recognizes that no one Member, regardless of individual

ownership interest, could ever unilaterally make a decision or take any action that requires the

vote or approval of a Majority in Interest.

41. Rahbar has recently taken the position that Majority in Interest does not require

a combination of Members and can be satisfied by only one Member owning a majority of the

Membership Units. That position is at odds with the plain language of Section 1.1.19, which

clearly requires a combination of Members; the explicit distinction made in Section 1.1.20

between the meaning of the terms Member and Members; and the requirement in Section

7.2.1 that the approval of a Majority in Interest means for aU purposes ... the approval of

IBB, Harris and MRP. Exhibit 3, at 3 and 15-16 (emphasis added). Rahbars position is also

illogical because it means that Rahbar, as the designated Director of IBB, could unilaterally

cause the Company to take any action he himself desired. In other words, his position would

nullify the concept of a Majority in Interest and the repeated provisions throughout the

Operating Agreement that grant the other Members decision-making authority and control.

42. Section 5.1 of the Operating Agreement prohibits the Companys Officers from

taking any action, or causing the Company to take any action, that requires Board and/or

Member approval unless such approval has been obtained pursuant to the Operating Agreement.

As described below, Rahbar and the Companys Officers have caused the Company to take each

of the actions listed in Paragraph 39 above without seeking or obtaining the approval of MRP
Katten
Katten MuchinRosenman llp UO and Harris UO, or even providing prior notice to them.

43. Under Section 6.3 of the Operating Agreement, the Company is required to

maintain complete and accurate books and records of the Companys financial and business
affairs, and it must also maintain those records in an accessible electronic medium so as to allow

the Members of the Company to inspect them at any time. Section 6.3 provides, m full, as

follows;

6.3 Rooks and Records. The Company shall maintain complete and
accurate books of account and records with respect to the Company, m a
manner customary and consistent with good accounting principles, practices
and procedures and in accordance with the rules of Treasury Regulation Section
1.704-l(b)(2)(iv) (in addition to any other methodology deemed appropriate).
Without limitation of any Members rights by contract, at law or otherwise, the
principal books of account and records shall be kept and maintained m the
cloud and accessible by the Members at any time.

Exhibit 3, at 12-13 (emphasis added).

44. Section 9.7.1 requires the Company to maintain its books and records at the

Companys principal office, and to make those records available for inspection and examination

by the Members during reasonable business hours:

The Company shall maintain the Companys books and records and
shall determine all items of Income, Loss, Net Income and Net Loss in
accordance with Treasury Regulations Section I.704-I(b)(2)(iv) (in addition to
any other method of accounting selected by the Directors, consistently applied[)].
All of the records and books of account of the Company, in whatever form
maintained, shall at all times be maintained at the principal office of the
Comnanv and shall be open to the inspection and examination of the.
Members or their representatives during reasonable business hours up to
twice per calendar year. Such right may be exercised through any agent or

III. MISMANAGEMENT, MISCONDUCT, AND BREACHES OF THE COMPANYS
GOVERNING DOCUMENTS BY RAHBAR AND THE OTHER DEFENDANTS

A. Fraudulent Tenant Improvement Scheme

45. At Rahbars direction, the Company has perpetrated a multi-year scheme to

siphon off at least hundreds of thousands of dollars paid by landlords as part of tenant

improvement budgets for MakeOffices locations, MakeOfficess former Senior Construction

Manager, Bruno Vega, has submitted a sworn affidavit in support of this Verified Complaint,

which describes the tenant improvement scheme in detail. A true, accurate, and complete copy

of Mr. Vegas sworn affidavit is attached hereto as Exhibit 4 (Vega Affidavh).

46. During the time Mr. Vega was employed by MakeOffices, Rahbar, Defendant

Junior, and the Companys chief real estate development officer. Defendant Reid Fetters,

artificially inflated Company build-out costs and falsified tenant reimbursement packages in

order to have landlords reimburse far greater amounts than the Company actually spent to build

out its spaces and to pocket the difference. Exhibit 4 (Vega Affidavit), 4. Rahbar used the

shell entity Defendant American Majestic Construction L.L.C. (American Majestic), which he

and his parents formed in 2007, to pose as the general contractor for MakeOffices build-out

projects and to acquire project materials, including glass, carpet, lighting, and other furniture,

fixtures, and equipment. Id Rahbar, Junior, and Fetters prepared falsified invoices reflecting

amounts that American Majestic had supposedly paid to vendors and suppliers, but which far

exceeded the actual amounts billed by those vendors and suppliers and paid by American

Majestic. Id For example, in the case of MakeOfficess Chicago Loop location (1 North State

Street, 15* Floor, Chicago, IL), Rahbar, Junior, and Fetters submitted invoices to the buildings
Katten
Katten MuchinRosenman llp

2goo K Street NW landlord. which reflected that MakeOffices had paid American Majestic more than $470,000 for

Washington, DC 20007-5118
202.625,3500 te!

16
glass and associated labor. In reality, the glass and associated labor for the Chicago Loop project

cost less than $200,000.

47. Rahbar, Junior, and Fetters also falsified BB&T Automated Clearing House

(ACH) transfer confirmations to demonstrate that American Majestic had actually paid the

fabricated supplier costs and been reimbursed by the applicable MakeOffices SPE affiliate. For

example, the ACH confirmation included in the Chicago Loop reimbursement package purports

to reflect an ACH transfer from a BB&T account held by the Company SPE-affiliate UO One

North State LLC with an account number ending in 6081. The transfer purportedly was made on

or about April 18, 2016 to an account named American Majestic Consf in the amount of

$235,082.00 - supposedly representing half of the cost of the glass and labor on the project.

However, there is no record of such a transaction occurring. In fact, BB&T analyzed the ACH

confirmation email included in the Chicago Loop reimbursement package and determined that it

(1) is not authentic; (2) was not generated by BB&T; and (3) could not possibly reflect a bona

fide ACH transfer because the amount purportedly transferred exceeds BB&Ts maximum

allowable transfer amount and the customer account names are not accurately reflected. BB&Ts

Vice President and Platform Development Manager for Online Banking, Vicki Givens, has

submitted a sworn affidavit, which describes BB&Ts investigation and findings in detail. A

true, accurate, and complete copy of Ms. Givenss sworn affidavit is attached hereto as Exhibit 5.

As a further example. Defendants also falsified bank records with respect to the Companys K

Street location. Ms. Givens analyzed the ACH confirmation email included in the K Street

reimbursement package and determined that it also is not authentic and was not generated by
Katten
KattenMuchinRosenman llp BB&T. See id., 8-9.

48. Finally, Rahbar had his mother, Defendant Mahi'ou Rahhar, sign falsified lien

waivers on behalf of American Majestic attesting that MakeOffices had reimbursed American

Majestic in full for the inflated amounts it purportedly paid to suppliers, when, in fact, no such

payments had been made. Exhibit 4 (Vega Affidavit), ^ 4. Each of the falsified documents

described above was submitted to landlords as part of tenant reimbursement packages. Id

Rahbars father. Defendant Raymond Rahbar, Sr., as a co-owner of American Majestic, also

knew of, assisted with, and/or benefited from American Majestics role in the tenant build-out

scheme.

49. In early 2016, Rahbar had Defendant Raezer Construction, EEC created to

assume the role previously played by Defendant American Majestic in this fraudulent scheme.

Exhibit 4 (Vega Affidavit), f 5.

50. Defendant Jaimie Shapiro was the person responsible for forming and organizing

Raezer Construction. Shapiro falsely attested in official records filed with the State Corporation

Commission to organize these entities that [t]he purpose for which the[y] [were] formed is to

engage in any lawful business, purpose or activity for which a limited liability company may be

formed under the Virginia Limited Liability Company, even though she knew that the entities

were created for the sole purpose of furthering Defendants unlawful scheme to defraud

Company landlords and siphon off tenant improvement monies. True, accurate and complete

copies of Raezer Constructions Certificate and Articles of Organization are attached hereto as

Exhibit 18.

51. Rahbars intentional fabrication of bank payment records and mechanics lien
Katten waivers as described above constitute serious civil and criminal violations and allowed Rahbar
KattenMuchin Rosenman llp

2900 K Street NW

landlords as part of tenant improvement budgets for MakeOffices locations. Exhibit 4 (Vega

Affidavit), H 6.

B. Diversion Of The Monetary Commissions


Paid By MakeOfficess Tenant Broker

52. As part of its business, MakeOffices uses the commercial real estate and

brokerage firm Avison Young to locate the office spaces that the Company subleases to other

companies and individuals on a temporary basis. Avison Young and other tenant brokers often

share with the Company a percentage of the commission they receive from landlords after a lease

has been signed for a particular MakeOffices location. These commission payments often

amount to hundreds of thousands of dollars for the Company. Rahbar repeatedly directed

Avison Young and other brokers to pay commissions totaling hundreds of thousands of dollars

to accounts owned by him, Defendant Eric Raezer, and/or entities they control rather than to the

Company, contrary to sharing agreements between Avison Young and MakeOffices.

53. On repeated occasions, Rahbar has asked Avison Young representatives to pay

the commission payments directly to him or to other Defendants working in concert with him

rather than to MakeOffices. On all but two occasions, described below, Avison Young has

refused to comply with Rahbars requests.

54. According to Nathan Krill, the primary point of contact for the MakeOffices

account at Avison Young, in one instance, Rahbar requested that the commission payment

associated with the MakeOffices location at 1015 15* Street NW be paid to Defendant Raezer

Sponsors EEC, instead of to MakeOffices. A true, accurate, and complete copy of Mr. Krills

Katten sworn affidavit is attached hereto as Exhibit 6 (Krill Affidavit). Per Rahbar s request, on April
KattenMuchinRosenman llp

2900 K Street NW
North Tower - Suite 200
27, 2016, Avison Young remitted $215,068.50, representing the commission payment due to
Washington, DC 20007-5118
202.625.3500 tel
202.298,7570 fex

19
MakeOffices for 1015 15 Street NW, to an account held by Raezer Sponsors LLC at BB&T

Bank. S^ id,, 5-6.

55. Then, on May 23, 2016, $210,000 of the commission was paid by check from the

owned by Defendant Raezer Sponsors to Defendant Rahbar personally. The check was
account

signed by Rahbar himself, and it was deposited into his personal account on May 23. According
to Plaintiffs accountant, the Companys general ledger does not indicate that these funds were

booked through any income, expense, or equity accounts maintained by the Company. A true,

accurate, and complete copy of Mr. Rosenblums sworn affidavit is attached hereto as Exhibit 7.

56. Subsequently, Rahbar instructed Avison Young to remit the commission payment

associated with MakeOfficess Wharf location (800 Maine Avenue, SW, Washington, DC

20024) to the same account held by Defendant Raezer Sponsors at BB&T, instead of to

MakeOffices. ^ Exhibit 6 (Krill Affidavit), 7-8. However, instead of explicitly asking

Avison Young to make payment to Raezer Sponsors, Rahbar misled Avison Young. In his

written request to Nathan Krill on August 22, 2016, Rahbar requested that Avison Young remit

the $400,000.00 commission payment due to MakeOffices to UO Management, LLC, a

MakeOffices SPE subsidiary, but the wiring information he provided to Mr. Krill is associated

with the same BB&T account held by Raezer Sponsors, not an account held by UO

Management, LLC. IT Per Rahbars request, on September 19, 2016, Avison Young

unwittingly paid $400,000 that was due to MakeOffices for its Wharf location to the BB&T

account held by Raezer Sponsors. IT These commission payments belonged to MakeOffices,

not to Defendant Rahbar or Defendant Raezer Sponsors, and these Defendants actions constitute
Katten
KattenMuchInRosenman llp gross misappropriation of Company funds.

C. Unaccounted For Credit Card Expenses And
Reimbursements Paid By The Companys Tenant Broker

57. MakeOfficess tenant broker, Avison Young, frequently paid for Rahbars travel

and other expenses, including payments toward his air travel, meals, and entertainment. Avison

Young also provided Rahbar with a personal credit card to use at his discretion. See Exhibit 6
(Krill Affidavit), ^ 9. None of those payments are reflected in the Companys books and records.

These charges also are excessive and disproportionate to the revenues earned by the Company.

See Exhibit 7 (Rosenblum Affidavit), T1 8.

D. Waste Of Company Assets On Excessive And


Unnecessary Travel, Entertainment, and Compensation

58. Rahbar has also improperly used hundreds of thousands of dollars of Company

funds for unnecessary and lavish personal travel and entertainment expenses, in addition to the

payments Avison Young made towards his travel, meals, and entertainment.

59. The Company has failed to properly account for Rahbars credit card expenses in

its books and records. For example, in just the three-month period April through June of 2016,

the Company expenses charged to Rahbars personal credit card include $199,011.88

purportedly for Advertising, Marketing & Promotion; $95,045.49 purportedly for Computer /

Electronic Equipment and Internet; $25,868.51 purportedly for Meals and Entertainment,

$74,209.87 purportedly for Office Supplies; $32,232.65 purportedly for Airfare; $24,386.20

purportedly for Hotel Expenses; and $7,557.24 purportedly for Uber Expenses. In the first

quarter of 2016, there have been comparable charges in each of the above categories. See

Exhibit 7 (Rosenblum Affidavit), ^ 8.


Katten
Katten MuchinRosenman llp
60. Rahbar never provided any justification for these charges, nor did he submit any
2900 K Street NW
North Tower - Suite 200
Washington, DC 20007-5118
202.625.3500 tei
requests for reimbursements. Instead, several times a month, he would write and cash checks to
202.298.7570 fax

21
his personal Bank of America credit card account ranging in amount from $50,000 to $100,000.

The payments also were not properly accounted for in the Companys books and records.

Defendants have repeatedly blocked Plaintiffs access to the Companys financial records, which

Plaintiffs believe will show numerous additional expenses that were improperly incurred and/or

improperly accounted for by Rahbar and the other Defendants. There are also numerous

reclassifications of expenses and other charges for which the Company and the Defendants have

failed to identify and to provide supporting documentation.

61. Rahbar has received significant cash rewards as a result of the Companys use of

his personal credit card(s). By way of example, for the period October 14, 2015 through

September 13, 2016, Rahbar received cash rewards totaling $42,255.07. These cash rewards

should be credited to the Company and included in its books of account, but that was not done.

See Exhibit 7 (Rosenblum Affidavit), *j[ 8.

62. The Company has incurred a number of other significant expenses that are not

properly described or accounted for in its books and records. For example, for the first half of

2016, the Company incurred approximately $71,500 in Amazon.com charges, but there are no

descriptions for any of these purchases in the general ledger, aside from the accounts they were

posted to (Computer/Electronic Equipment and Internet of $28,939 and Office Supplies of

$42,563). S^ Exhibit 7 (Rosenblum Affidavit), ^ 8. In addition, Rahbar also used his personal

credit card, which the Company reimbursed, to make substantial payments on his student loans.

63. Rahbar has also used Company funds to lease several apartments in Chicago.

There is no legitimate business purpose for these apartments, which appear to be used by Rahbar
Katten
KattenMuchinRosenman llp
for personal entertainment.

202.625.3500 tel
202.298.7570 fax

22
64. In addition, according to payroll records and W-2s, Rahbar received $47,076.93

in compensation for 2015, and $12,070.99 in compensation for roughly the first half of 2016,

even though he has reported to the Board that he would not take a salary during those years. ^

Exhibit 7 (Rosenblum Affidavit), 8.

65. Recently, the Companys former CFO, Brian Bharwani, disclosed to Plaintiff

Harris UO that he had identified several additional transactions by Rabhar that are outside the

normal course of business. Specifically, Rahbar wrote two checks on November 30, 2016

totaling $270,000 purportedly relating to management compensation - a $180,000 check to

Rahbar himself and a $90,000 check to Defendant Chris Junior. Mr. Bharwani provided no

documentary explanation or support for these payments and merely stated in conclusory fashion

that they are supported by expense accruals from past periods.

E. Improper Distributions Of Company Funds

66. In 2015, Rahbar caused the Company to make significant distribution payments to

Members of the Company that are wholly-owned by either Rahbar or his longtime friend.

Defendant Chris Junior. Specifically, the Company made a $715,000 distribution to Defendant

IBB, and a $25,000 distribution to Defendant Best Inbestuhment. In contrast, the Company

made only a nominal distribution payment to one non-Rahbar-controlled Member of the

Company, Current Yield With Participation Fund I, LLC, in the amount of $12,000, and made no

distributions at all to Plaintiffs MRP UO and Harris UO. See Exhibit 7 (Rosenblum Affidavit),

[[ 8. Rahbar also improperly paid out distributions to himself in 2016, but Defendants have

refused to provide any details of, or supporting documentation for, those distributions.
Katten
Katten MuchinRosenman llp
67. The above distributions by Rahbar were improper. Pursuant to Section 10.1 of
2900 K Street NW
North Tower - Suite 200
Washington, DC 20007-5118
202.625.3500 tel the Companys Operating Agreement, distributions are prohibited until after such time as the
202.298.7570 fax

23
Requisite Directors determine the amount of cash, if any, that is available for distribution.

Plaintiffs are two of the Requisite Directors, and neither of them has ever determined the

Company to have available cash for distributions, much less approved distributions of many

hundreds of thousands of dollars to Defendants Rahbar and Junior.

F. $1 Million Deal To Pay Eric Raezer For Consulting Services


That Were Never Actually Rendered To The Company

68. In May 2015, Rahbar secretly caused MakeOffices - known, at the time, as

UberOffices LLC - to enter into a Contingent Agreement with Rahbars longtime friend.

Defendant Eric Raezer, whereby the Company agreed to pay Defendant Raezer personally the

exorbitant sum of $1 million in exchange for his minimal assistance with the renaming and

rebranding of the Company. The Company had previously retained and/or obtained bids from at

least two other outside consulting firms to create and select its new name and logo, including

Wallace & Company, which estimated that such services would cost, at most between $10,000

and $15,000, and Verasolve, which, at or around the time the Contingent Agreement was entered

into, was already providing such services for a mere $4,250. Rahbar, in concert with Defendant

Raezer, backdated the Contingent Agreement by falsifying the notary seal on the document, in

order to create the false impression that the Contingent Agreement actually predated the

consulting contract with both Wallace & Company and Verasolve, as well as to justify

previously misappropriated funds. Rahbar has paid Defendant Raezer, through his alter ego

companies, hundreds of thousands of dollars, which is grossly excessive for the modest services

Raezer allegedly provided. Some of these payments were made by instructing, and tricking,

Katten Avison Young to pay Raezer Sponsors LLC commission-sharing payments that were due to
KattenMuchinRosenman llp

2900 K Street NW
North Tower - Suite 200 MakeOffices. Paying Eric Raezer in this way kept the payments made under the Contingent
Washington, DC 20007-5118
202,625.3500 tel
202,298.7570 fex
Agreement hidden from MakeOfficess books. Upon receipt of such payments, Raezer turned

24
around and immediately paid a substantial portion of this windfall to Rahbar, further hiding his

misappropriation of Company funds.

69. Even assuming the Contingent Contract was a bona fide transaction and not a

cover for self-dealing, which it was not, Rahbar had no authority to bind the Company to such an
agreement. Under Section 7.2.1.1 of the Operating Agreement, the Company may not make

any ... transfer ... or any other disposition of any material asset or business of the Company ...

or consent or agree to or enter into any agreement to do any of the foregoing without first
obtaining the affirmative vote or approval of a Majority In Interest (which shall for all purposes

(so long as IBB, Harris and MRP, as applicable, or their respective Affiliates, continue to be
Members of the Company) require the approval of IBB, Harris and MRP). Exhibit 3, at 15.

Under Section 7.2.1.5, the Company may not transfer ... or otherwise dispose of any assets ...

of the Company in an amount greater than $100,000, other than ... transfers ... or dispositions m

the Companys ordinary course of business without the affirmative vote or approval of a
Majority In Interest. The $I million contract was not disclosed to or approved by the Board and.

therefore, is in violation of Sections 7.2.1.1 and 7.2.1.5.

70. In addition, Section 4.3.1 prohibits transactions with Affiliates unless the

transaction was (i) previously approved by the Board or (ii) previously disclosed to the Board

and CEO, and it is a transaction of the type that a consultant or employee would perform in the

ordinary course of business;


4.3.1. Affiliate Transactions. The Company will have no authority to
enter into any transaction with an Affiliate of the Company, or with any Person
that is an Affiliate of an Officer, Director, or Member, until [the] Board of
Katten Directors has given its prior approval of the transaction. In each such case, the
KattenMuchinRosenman llp Board shall form an ad hoc committee made up of all Directors who do not have
2900 K Street NW
North Tower - Suite 200
an interest in the proposed transaction (Disinterested Directors) to review the
Washington, DC 20007-5118
202.625.3500 tel
transaction. The Disinterested Directors may authorize, or deny authorization, ot
202.298.7570 fax. the proposed transaction by simple majority vote of the Disinterested Directors.

25
... The foregoing notwithstanding, all expenses incurred by, or allocated by any
Member for services rendered to the Company that would, in the ordinary course,
be services performed by a consultant or employee of the Company (i.e., for
example, accounting or similar services) will be paid or promptly reimbursed by
the Company; provided that such expenses are specified in advance with
reasonable detail to the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer.

Exhibit 3, at 8.

71. Section 1.1.3 of the Operating Agreement defines an affiliate of the Company

to mean (i) any Person directly controlled by, controlling, or under common control with the
Company, or (ii) any Member, Director, Officer or other representative of the Company.

Exhibit 3, at 1. Defendant Raezer is an affiliate of the Company because he controls and/or is


employed by Raezer Construction EEC and Raezer and Fetters EEC, which are wholly-owned

subsidiaries of the Company and part of its organizational structure; and (2) he is a co-founder of

MakeOffices and acts as a representative of the Company with purported authority to act on its

behalf Rahbar violated the Operating Agreement by causing the Company to enter into an

affiliate transaction with Defendant Raezer without following the mandatory procedures set forth

in Section 4.3.1.

G. AHf^itinnal Breaches Of MakeOfficess Governing Documents

72. In addition to the instances of mismanagement, misconduct, and misappropriation

of Company funds described above, Rahbar and the other Defendants have violated numerous

provisions of the Operating Agreement:

Section 4.3.2 of the Operating Agreement provides that no Director or Officer can use
any property of the Company to gain an exclusive personal benefit without the consent ot
an ad hoc committee of all Disinterested Directors. ^ Exhibit 3, at 8-9. Defendant
Rahbar violated Section 4.3.2 by, among other actions, (1) diverting - or permitting the
diversion of - the monetary commissions that Avison Young pays to the Company after a
Katten lease has been signed; (2) failing to properly account for credit card expenses and
KattenMuchinRosenman llp

2900 K Street NW reimbursements paid by Avison Young; (3) wasting Company assets on excessive and
North Tower - Suite 200
Washington, DC 20007-5118 unnecessary travel and entertainment, including for company apartments and lavish
202.625.3500 tel
202.298.7570 fax travel and entertainment; (4) making a fraudulent, sweetheart deal to pay his longtime
friend. Defendant Raezer, $1 million for limited consulting services that Raezer provided

26
to the Company, which were worth a small fraction of that amount; (5) fraudulently
inflating company build-out costs in order to personally pocket additional funds paid by
landlords as part of tenant improvement budgets for MakeOffices locations; and (6) using
Company funds to pay for his personal legal defense.
Section 6.2 of the Operating Agreement provides that the Company shall deliver to each
Member certain financial information about the Company at several points throughout
the year. ^ Exhibit 3, at 12. This information includes (1) a Profit and Loss Statement
and Balance Sheet delivered to each Member no later than thirty days after the closing of
each Fiscal Year; and (2) a full financial reporting package delivered to each Member on
a quarterly basis consisting of a (i) monthly income statement, (ii) statement of
Members equity, (iii) balance sheet, (iv) general ledger, and (v) such other reports as any
Member owning not less than 10% of the aggregate Membership Units hereunder may
request!.] M, To date, the Company has routinely failed to deliver the necessary
financial reporting to the Board and the Members. The Company has also failed to create
a financial repository cloud for all financial records of the Company and which is
accessible to all Members at any time and without notice as required by Section 6.3; and
to maintain complete and accurate books of account and records as required by Section
9.7.1. IT, at 12-13 and 25.
Section 7 2 1.14 of the Operating Agreement prohibits the Company from chang[ing]
the accountants employed by the Company or change the method of accounting
employed by the Company without first obtaining the affirmative vote . or approval
, ot a
Majority In Interest (which shall for all purposes (so long as IBB, Harris and MRP, as
applicable, or their respective Affiliates, continue to be Members of the Company)
require the approval of IBB, Harris and MRP). ^ Exhibit 3, at 15-16. Prior to the fall
of 2015, the Companys accounting and tax matters were handled by Steve Kullman and
his firm, Kullman CPA, EEC; and the Company maintained its financial and accouirtmg
records using QuickBook online software. In the fall of 2015, at Defendant Rahbar s
direction, the Company terminated Mr. Kullman and his firm as the Company s
accountants. This action was taken without obtaining the affirmative vote or approval ot
Plaintiffs, much less providing them with notice of the actions, in violation of Section
7.2.1.14.
Section 9.9 of the Operating Agreement (see Exhibit 3, at 25) and Section 3 1(e) of the
Facility Agreement (see Exhibit 2, at 9) provide that the bank accounts of MakeOttices
and its subsidiaries must be maintained at EagleBank or another bank approved by the
Board, and that no [other] bank accounts or [] arrangements shall be opened or receive
Company funds except as so approved in writing by all of the Board of Directors.
Exhibit 3, at 25. In violation of Section 9.9, Defendant Rahbar created bank accounts tor
MakeOffices and its subsidiaries at other financial institutions, including BB&T and
Bank of America, without seeking or obtaining the approval of the Board of Directors, t
Katten is also evident that Defendant Rahbar has diverted funds that should have been deposited
Katten MuchinRosenman llp

2900 K Street NW into MakeOfficess bank account(s) at EagleBank into accounts at other banlcs that are
North Tower - Suite 200
Washington, DC 20007-5118
owned or controlled by him and/or Defendant Raezer. The funds involved total hundreds
202.625.3500 tei
202.298.7570 fax of thousands of dollars. His actions have left insufficient funds in the primary

27
operating account to satisfy the Companys operating cash requirement and placed the
Company in teclmical default of its loan obligations with EagleBank.

Section 7.2.1.13 of the Operating Agreement prohibits the Company from creating any
subsidiaries, except for those created in the ordinary course of the Companys business
such as new tenant special purpose entities, without first obtaining approval of the
Board. See Exhibits, 15-16. Despite that prohibition. Defendant Rahbar and the
Companys Officers have created at least four special purpose entities outside of the
Companys ordinary course of business including UO Virtual EEC, Raezer and Fetters
EEC, Raezer Construction EEC, and Raezer Sponsors EEC - without seeking or
obtaining Board approval. Rahbars actions are also contrary to the terms of the Facility
Agreement as they have diverted rental revenue away from the Company s lenders,
placing the Company in technical default of its loan obligations with EagleBank.

Section 5.10 of the Facility Agreement also prohibits MakeOffices from forming, or
engaging in business with, any new affiliates without the written consent of the Bank.
See Exhibit 2, at 14. As discussed above, despite that prohibition. Defendant Rahbar and
the Companys Officers have caused MakeOffices to form at least four SPE affiliates that
are not part of the Banks collateral. Rahbar and the other Officers did not seek or obtain
the Banks consent, nor did they notify the Bank, before taking action with respect to
these affiliate SPEs, in violation of Section 5.10. These actions have placed the
Company in technical default of its loan obligations with EagleBank.

Section 4.4 of the Operating Agreement requires that there be at least ten monthly
meetings of the Companys Board of Directors each calendar year. ^ Exhibit 3, at 9.
Defendant Rahbar, as the former CEO of the Company, is responsible for setting the date
and time of each such meeting and for delivering notice of each Board meeting to each
Director at least ten days prior to such meeting. The other Board members agreed, with
Defendant Rahbars input and consent, to a schedule of such meetings, but Rahbar has
continually failed, without notice to the remainder of the Board, to attend such meetings -
and, recently, has unilaterally cancelled them - in order to avoid inquiry into his gross
misconduct. Rahbars actions constitute violations of Section 4.4.

H. Defendants Other Tortious Acts

73. Under Section 6.1 of the Operating Agreement and prevailing law. Defendant

Rahbar and the Companys Officers are required to act in good faith, in a manner reasonably

believed to be in the best interests of the Company, and consistent with the duties of care,

loyalty, and good faith. ^ Exhibit 3, at 12. MRP UO has received information of certain
Katten
KattenMuchinRosenman llp

2900 K Street NW defamatory statements that Rahbar has made to other Members of the Company, to Company
North Tower - Suite 200
Washington, DC 20007-5118
202.625.3500 tel
202.298.7570 fex employees, and to the public. For example, on July 29, 2016, Defendant Rahbar held a meeting

28
with employees and personnel of MakeOffices during which he made several defamatory

statements regarding Plaintiffs and their managing principals. These statements included the

allegations that (i) MRP UO, Harris UO, and Ron Paul (the Harris Director and the CEO and

Chairman of EagleBank) are no longer affiliated with the Company, (ii) Ron Paul is being

investigated for his dealings with the Company, and (iii) MakeOffices no longer needs MRP

UO as a partner because MRP UO is having financial difficulties. These statements are false and

libelous because they were untrue and made by Defendant Rahbar with malice for the sole

purpose of harming Plaintiffs reputations within the Company and with the public and their

ability to properly conduct and oversee the operations of MakeOffices business.

74. MakeOfficess General Counsel, Defendant Jaimie Shapiro, has also made

defamatory statements about MRP UO to individuals and entities with whom MakeOffices does

business. On July 27, 2016, Shapiro wrote letters to all of the Companys landlords claiming

that MRP UO no longer has any business affiliation or relationship with the Company and, on

that basis, instructing the landlords that there should be no further communication with MRP

[UO] as it pertains to the business dealings between [MakeOffices] and [its landlords]. True,

accurate, and complete copies of Shapiros letters to Company landlords are attached hereto as

Exhibit 19. Shapiros statements to MakeOfficess landlords were demonstrably false and made

for the purpose of harming MRP UOs professional reputation, dissuading the landlords from

associating with MRP UO, and inhibiting its ability to properly conduct and oversee the

operations of MakeOfficess business.

75. At the time of Shapiros statements, Plaintiffs were unquestionably Members of

its business and operations. As the Companys General Counsel and Chief of Staff, Shapiro
202.298.7570 fax

29
knew of Plaintiffs ongoing ownership interest and involvement in the Company, and yet she

falsely told MakeOfficess landlords that MRP UO no longer has any business affiliation or

relationship with the Company. Shapiro wrote to the Companys landlords knowing that her

statements regarding MRP UO were false or, at the very least, with reckless disregard for their

truth. Shapiro also had no legitimate business purpose for making her statements. To the

contrary, Shapiros knew that her statements to Company landlords would jeopardize MRP UOs

reputation and standing in the real estate industry. All of the landlords who received one of

Shapiros letters were well aware of Plaintiffs association with MakeOffices, and, in fact, many

of the landlords had agreed to lease space to MakeOffices solely because of Plaintiffs

association. Indeed, Plaintiffs were brought on as Members of MakeOffices because of their real

estate expertise, financing, and industry relationships that the Company needed in order to

expand its business. Plaintiff MRP UO is an affiliate of MRP Realty, a leading real estate

developer in the Washington, D.C. area, and Plaintiff Harris UO was co-founded by Ron Paul,

who is the CEO and Chairman of EagleBank, a leading lender for real estate development m the

area. Under the circumstances, Shapiros statements to Company landlords carried significant

implications for MRP UOs reputation and standing in the real estate industry.

76. Rahbars actions described above have also subjected the Company to default of

the Facility Agreement. In addition to the violations detailed above in Paragraph 71, Rahbars

actions have also violated Section 1.12(a) and Section 1.5 of the Facility Agreement. Section

1.12(a) provides that, for any letter of credit having an outside expiration date beyond the date

that is seven years from the Facility Agreement closing, MakeOffices must make monthly

requirement results in an amount on deposit in the Control Account equal to the sum of the Line

Cash Collateral Amount plus the aggregate undrawn amount of all Outside Range Letters of

Credit on or prior to the sixth anniversary of the facility closing date. Under Rahhars control,
MakeOffices has not funded this requirement for any outstanding leases including 1015 15th

Street, NW, Washington DC; 1635 Market Street, Philadelphia; the Wharf and soon to be 2201

Wisconsin Avenue, NW, Washington DC.

77. In addition. Section 1.5 of the Facility Agreement provides that, commencing on

October 31, 2015 and continuing thereafter on the last business day of each calendar month until

the balance on deposit in the Control Account reaches the Cash Collateral Minimum,

MakeOffices must deposit fifty percent (50%) of its aggregate net cash flow (the Cash Flow

Deposits) into the Control Account, which Control Account shall be pledged as collateral for

the Facility by virtue of the Account Assignment. S^ Exhibit 2, at 3-4. Under the express terms

of Section 6.1(1), the failure to do so constitutes an immediate Event of Default. Ift, at 17-19.

Rahbar, during his tenure as CEO, has not complied with Section 1.5, and, therefore, pursuant to

Section 6.1(1), has placed the Company m an immediate Event of Default.

78. Section 1.5 also requires that, commencing on October 31, 2015 and continuing

thereafter on the last business day of each calendar month until the balance on deposit in the

Control Account reaches the Cash Collateral Minimum, MakeOffices must submit to the Bank a

monthly operating statement on or before the last day of the following month setting forth in

MakeOffices, including most of its subsidiaries for the previous calendar month. S^ Exhibit 2,

time, the above items should have been readily available for inspection by Plaintiffs accounting

firm.

81. Rahbar rejected the Boards action and has refused to relinquish his positions as

CEO and Treasurer. Rahbar has also repeatedly sought to block Plaintiffs access to the books

and records of the Company as well as to those held by third parties (including various banks) in

order to prevent Plaintiffs from discovering the full extent of his misconduct.

82.
Neither Rahbar nor any of the Companys other Officers, all of whom are loyal to

him, responded to the Plaintiffs Written Consent and Audit Review Notice of August 3. After

repeated attempts to contact the Companys CFO, Defendant Bharwani, and without receiving

any response, the MRP Director sent Mr. Bharwani the following written demand to confirm
receipt of the above correspondence and the Companys cooperation in complying with the

directives contained therein;


After sending the formal audit notification to your attention this afternoon,
we have tried repeatedly to contact you regarding Mr. Rahbars termination as
CEO and Treasurer of the Company, but you have failed to respond and, for
whatever reason, have chosen to be incommunicado in apparent dereliction of
your duties as the CFO of the Company. You are hereby directed, on behalf of the
MRP Director, to secure all financial records of the Company, including those
referenced in my email below, from any and all unauthorized access or attempt by
anyone to delete, remove, transfer, change, modify, or otherwise tamper with the
Companys records. Please acknowledge this directive immediately.

A true, accurate, and complete copy of Mr. Wades first e-mail on August 3, 2016 is attached

hereto as Exhibit 10.


When Mr. Bharwani finally responded, he refused to comply with the actions and
83.

directives of the Plaintiffs and indicated that he would follow up after he had the opportunity to

33
84. Recognizing that Rahbars removal might cause him to tamper with the

Companys records in an effort to hide his own misconduct, Mr. Wade again demanded that Mr.

Bharwani confirm that, at the very least, he would safeguard the Companys hooks and records:

As the Companys CFO, you have the obligation to protect the integrity of
the books and records of the Company, per my prior email. Your apparent
reluctance to do so is troubling, to say the least. Again, please confirm that you
will protect the integrity of the Companys books and records without further
obfuscation or delay.

A true, accurate, and complete copy of Mr. Wades second e-mail on August 3,2016 is attached

hereto as Exhibit 11.

85. After once again receiving no response from Mr. Bharwani, Mr. Wade made yet

another demand for confirmation that the Plaintiffs directives would be carried out;

To follow up on your correspondence from last night, we have yet to


receive your written acknowledgment as the Companys CFO that you understand
and will strictly adhere to your obligation to protect the integrity of the books and
records of the Company. Please immediately confirm that you will protect the
integrity of the Companys books and records without further obfuscation or
delay.
Furthermore, pursuant to the attached Audit Review Notice, please
confirm that you will be present at MakeOfficess corporate offices in Rosslyn
(1400 Key Boulevard, Suite 100, Arlington, VA 22209) tomorrow morning at 9
AM so that our independent, external auditor may meet with you and obtain all of
the required deliverables set forth in our Audit Review Notice.

A true, accurate, and complete copy of Mr. Wades August 4, 2016 e-mail is attached hereto as

Exhibit 12.

86. Mr. Bharwani eventually responded and refused to acknowledge either the

Plaintiffs Written Consent removing Rahbar as CEO or their Audit Review Notice requesting

access to the Companys books and records. Mr. Bharwani also forwarded correspondence from

had not yet received them and would not support the Company taking any action until she had

the opportunity to speak with Rahbars outside legal counsel, Clark Hill, regarding the issue. A

true, accurate, and complete copy of Bharwanis August 4, 2016 e-mail is attached hereto as

Exhibit 13.

87. Mr. Wade responded the next day in order to provide copies of the Written

Consent and Audit Review Notice and respond to both Ms. Shapiros and Mr. Bharwam s emails

from the night before:


Jaimie - Attached is the Consent from the MRP Director and the Harris
Director removing Raymond Rahbar as CEO of MakeOffices effective August 3,
2016. Mr. Rahbars termination is authorized by Section 5.1.1 of the governing
Operating Agreement. As legal counsel for MakeOffices, you are required to
abide by and enforce, the Consent. There cannot be any legitimate doubt that
Raymond Rahbar has been removed as CEO of the Company in compliance wth
Section 5.1.1. Please note that a copy of the Consent was delivered to Clark Hill,
Mr. Rahbars outside counsel, on August 3, 2016 by our litigation counsel.

Brian - As to your conditions for delivering the requested audit materials


to the Members of MakeOffices per the formal Inspection letter delivered to you
on August 3, 2016, they are invalid and serve as mere pretext for delaying the
inspection. As noted above, Mr. Rahbars termination as CEO is valid and
effective- and the Members have the right to inspect the books and records ot the
Company in accordance with Section 9.7.1 of the Operating Agreement. The
cloud containing these records was never created, which also is a breach of the
Operating Agreement. Therefore, we reiterate our request to receive these
deliverables and meet with you on Monday, August 8, 2016 at MakeOffices
corporate offices in Rosslyn at 9 AM.
Please confirm receipt of this email and confirm that you will be available
on Monday, August 8, 2016 per our request above.

The companys outside counsel has done a preliminary review of the
board dispute and related audit request. Pursuant to their advice, I have been
advised to maintain my original stance on both matters. The Cornpany s officers
are not in a position to conclude that Raymond has been removed as CEO, and
until MakeOffices is able to reach such a conclusion, we must all Proceed with
status quo that [Rahbar] is still the CEO. Similarly, the Company ^
within their right to deny MRPs and Harriss demand for immediate audit rights.

You are directed not to come to or access the Companys offices while
this is being sorted out. Our outside counsel requires more time to advise usuon
whether the audit rights are appropriate in light of the nature of the ongoing o
dispute. We are unable to grant MRP and Harris audit rights until we have had
sufficient time to receive advice from outside counsel. Again, you are directed not
to come to or access the Companys offices while this is being sorted out.

repeatedly and consistently have refused Plaintiffs demands on the Company to remedy the

misconduct identified by Plaintiffs. Moreover, Defendants Rahbar and Shapiro are themselves

two of the perpetrators of that very misconduct. Defendant Rahbar is the nucleus of the rampant

mismanagement and misappropriation described herein, and Defendant Shapiro has been

complicit in, and assisted with, his schemes. Because the acting leadership of the Company is

comprised solely of individuals who are named herein and guilty of the wrongdoing alleged

herein, any further demands would be futile.

95. Further demands on the Company would be futile for the additional reason that

Plaintiffs, representing a majority of the Board of Directors - the decision-making body of the

Company obviously already have approved the relief sought herein. Therefore, to the extent a

demand were required, it has been agreed to. However, the Defendants, particularly Rahbar and

Shapiro as the acting officers of the Company, are refusing to enact Plaintiffs demands. Thus,

any additional demands would be futile.

98. Defendant Rahbar, with the knowledge, consent, aid, and participation of the

other Defendants, engaged in a conspiracy to injure Plaintiffs - both in their individual capacities

and as Members of MakeOffices. Defendants actions in furtherance of the conspiracy included

those described above and incorporated herein, and, in particular:

Artificially inflating Company build-out costs and falsifying tenant reimbursement


packages in order to siphon off funds due to the Company as part of tenant improvement
budgets paid by Company landlords;
Diverting more than $600,000 in monetary commissions due to the Company from
Avison Young to accounts held by Rahbar, Raezer, and/or the Raezer Entities;

Creating and using shell entities, including American Majestic and the Raezer Entities,
and fabricating bank payment records and mechanics lien waivers, for the sole purpose
of engaging in improper and illegal acts and to funnel money away from the Company
and to themselves;
Making improper and excessive distribution payments to Defendants Rahbar and Junior,
through distributions to IBB and Best Inbestuhment respectively, while making only
nominal distributions to the other Members or no distributions at all;

Entering into a sweetheart deal to pay Defendant Raezer $1 million from Company
accounts for consulting services that he never actually provided to the Company, which
agreement was in fact a sham agreement to provide cover for Defendants self-dealing;

Denying Plaintiffs access to the Companys books and records in order to conceal the
extent of the Defendants financial impropriety;

as an attorney acting as General Counsel to the Company, owes fiduciary duties on that basis as

well. In addition. Defendants Bharwani, Fetters, and Junior, as duly appointed Officers of the

Company, stand in a fiduciary relationship with the Company and owe the Company

corresponding fiduciary duties.


106. Defendants breached their fiduciary duties to the Company by the conduct

described in Paragraphs 45-76 above, including, for example, (1) falsifying bank payment

of tenant reimbursement packages and creating and


records and mechanics lien waivers as part

using shell entities for the purpose of defrauding Company landlords and siphoning off tenant
improvement monies; (2) diverting more than $600,000 in monetary commissions due to the

Company from its tenant broker, Avison Young; (3) making, and purporting to approve,

entities controlled by Defendants Rahbar and


improper and excessive distribution payments to

Junior while making only nominal or no distributions to other Members; (4) contracting to pay
Defendant Raezer $1 million in Company funds for services that he never actually provided to

and that would have been worth only a small fraction of that amount in any event;

information regarding the Companys business and financial affairs; (6) secretly appointing

of the Company and to refrain from self-dealing and conduct that would hurt the Companys

business.

107. For her part, as general counsel to the Company, Defendant Shapiro is obligated

to act in good faith and in a marmer consistent with the best interests of the Company, including
to refrain from impermissible conflicts of interest and from self-dealing. Shapiro has blatantly

violated those obligations and exceeded the scope of her employment by, among other actions,

refusing to comply with the official actions of the duly-elected Board and the terms of the

Companys Operating Agreement; conspiring to have herself appointed to the Board, which

presents an obvious conflict of interest and compromises her independence and professional

judgment; and favoring one Member of the Company (Rahbar), while actively attempting to
harm the financial interests and reputations of other Members (Plaintiffs); and actively and

willfully participating in Defendants misconduct and in concealing their misconduct from the

Company, as described above in Paragraphs 79-95 and 101.

of their fiduciary duties, the Company has been damaged in an amount in excess of $3 million.

C. The member engaged in conduct relating to the business of the limited liability
company which makes it not reasonably practicable to carry on the business with
the member.

111. IBB and Best Inbestuhment have engaged in conduct warranting their expulsion

as Members of the Company. For example, in 2015, Rahbar caused the Company to make

$715,000 in distributions to Defendant IBB, which is wholly-owned by Rahbar, and a $25,000

distribution to Defendant Best Inbestuhment, which is wholly-owned by Rahbars longtime

friend, Defendant Junior. These distributions were made unilaterally without providing notice to

the other Members or Directors, much less gaining the approval of any Director besides Rahbar

as the Operating Agreement requires. IBB took additional distributions from the Company in

2016. Under the circumstances, the distributions to Defendants IBB and Best Inbestuhment were

made in violation of Section 10.1 of the Operating Agreement. By causing the Company to

make the unlawful distributions to themselves and by accepting the distributions with

knowledge of their violation of the Operating Agreement - Defendants IBB and Best

Inbestuhment intentionally engaged in wrongful conduct that adversely and materially affected

the business of MakeOffices.

112. In addition. Defendants IBB and Best Inbestuhment, through their respective

principals and alter egos. Defendants Rahbar and Junior, willfully and persistently committed

material breaches of the Company Operating Agreement and other misconduct as described in

Paragraphs 45-71 above.

Plaintiffs reputations and their standings within their industries.

54
Defendants Rahbar and Shapiro knew or should have known that the aforesaid
145

defamatory statements were false when published


146. Specifically, on July 27, 2016, Shapiro wrote letters to all of the Companys

business affiliation or relationship with the


landlords claiming that MRP UO no longer has any
Company and, on that basis, instructing the landlords that there should be no further

communication with MRP [UO] as it pertains to the business dealings between [MakeOffices]

and [its landlords]. S^ Exhibit 19. At the time of Shapiros statements, MRP UO was

unquestionably a Member of the Company, controlled one of the three Director seats on the
actively involved in aspects of the Companys business and
Companys Board, and was
General Counsel and Chief of Staff, Shapiro knew of Plaintiffs
operations. As the Companys
ongoing ownership interest and involvement in the Company, and yet she falsely told

MakeOfficess landlords that MRP UO no longer has any business affiliation or relationship

with the Company. Shapiro wrote to the Companys landlords knowing that her statements

regarding MRP UO were false or, at the very least, with reckless disregard for their truth.
147. Shapiro also had no legitimate business purpose for sending her letters to

Company landlords. To the contrary, Shapiro made the statements in her letters to Company

landlords for the sole purpose of harming MRP UOs professional reputation, dissuading

landlords from assoeiating with MRP UO, and inhib.ting MRP UOs ability to properly conduct

and oversee the operations of MakeOfficess business. All of the landlords who received one of

of Plaintiffs association with MakeOffices, and, in fact, many


Shapiros letters were well aware

of the landlords had agreed to lease space to MakeOffices solely because of Plaintiffs
Katten

Members of MakeOffices because of their real

business. Under the circumstances, Shapiros statements to Company landlords carried

significant implications for MRP UOs reputation and standing in the real estate industry.

148. The false statements made by Defendants Rahbar and Shapiro have prejudiced

Plaintiffs in their profession and trade - and were made for the express purpose of causing such

prejudice and were defamatory per se . In addition, Rahbars false statements about Harris UO

and its principal, Ron Paul, being investigated are defamatory per se for the additional reason

that they impute to them a criminal offense involving moral turpitude for which they may be

punished.

149. As a reasonable, foreseeable, direct, and proximate result of the defamatory

statement made by Defendants Rahbar and Shapiro, Plaintiffs have been damaged in

afftraVIT of VICKI GIVENS

I, Vicki Givens, before the below named officer duly authorized to administer oaths, do

hereby swear and attest to the following:

1, I am over 18 years of age and have personal knowledge of the facts set forth in

this affidavit.

2. I am a Vice President and Platform Development Manager for Online Banking at


Branch Banking and Trust Company (BB&T). I have been employed at BB&T for twenty-

four (24) yeai's.

3. In my role a.s a Platform Development Manager at BB&T, 1 am responsible for

the Small Business Online Banking and Alerts Platform.s. .

4. In response to a subpoena, I was asked to review two documents that appear to be

email alerts from BB&T notifying a BB&T customer of ACH transactions initiated through their

BB&T Small Business Online account. The puipoited BB&'f email alerts are attached as
Exhibits A and B, After inspecting these documents, 1 have concluded that neither Exhibit A nor

Exhibit B are authentic email alerts from BB&T.


5, BB&Ts standard email alert template for ACH transactions initiated thi'ough a

Small Business Online account includes (i) the identity of the funding account (by account name

and by the last four digits of the customers account number), (ii) the date of the transaction, (m)

the identity of the recipient (by name), and (iv) the amount of the transaction, The template also

includes certain BB&T contact information and disclosures. Exhibits A and B reflect some of
the above information, but for the reasons specified below, I have determined that these email

alerts were not generated by BB&T.

6. Exhibit A purports to reflect that on April 18,2016, an ACH transaction was

initiated through a BB&T Small Business Online account ending in 6081 to a recipient named

American Majestic Const in the amount of $235,082.00. However, as stated in Section V.J of

BB&Ts Small Business Online Services Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as

Exhibit C, [t]he maximum aggregate amount of ACH entries [an accoiintholder] may initiate in
i.;

any rolling three (3) Business Days is the lesser of [its] collected and available balance or
$75,000.00, BB&Ts Small Business Online banking platform would not have allowed an

ACH transaction to be initiated for $235,082.00, and thus I am sure that Exhibit A is not a

genuine BB&T email alert.

7. In addition, the customer account names appearing on Exhibit A are inconsistent,

While the account name dJO One North State LLC appears in the upper right hand corner, the
account name MakeOffices LLC appears below within the colored banner as the entity that

initiated the ACH transaction, A genuine BB&T email alert would automatically display the

same account name in both locations. Moreover, BB&Is trademark is missing aftei the

words BB&T Small Business Online, and the phrase (Action Required) is missing after the
words ACH Payment Requested. For these reasons, as well ns others, I am sure that Exhibit A

is not a genuine BB&T email alert.

2
8. Exhibit B purports to reflect that on May 20, 2016, an ACH transaction was

initiated tluougli a BB&T Small Business Online account ending in 6081 to a recipient named

Raezer Construction LLC in the amount of $711,537.40. However, as stated in Section V.J of

BB&Ts Small Business Online Services Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as

Exhibit C, [t]he maximum aggregate amoimt of ACH entries [an accountholder] may initiate m
i

any rolling three (3) Business Days is the lesser of [its] collected and available balance or

$75,000.00. BB&Ts Small Business Online banlting platibim would not have allowed an

ACH transaction to be initiated for $711,537.40, and thus I am sure that Exhibit B is not a

genuine BB&T email alert.


In addition, the customer account names appearing on Exhibit B are inconsistent.
9.

While the account name MO 1015 15" Street, LLC appears in the upper right hand corner, the
account name MakeOffices LLC appears below within the colored banner as the entity that

initiated the ACH transaction. A genuine BB&T email alert would automatically display the

same account name in both locations. Moreover, BB&Ts trademark is missing after the

.xis BB&T Small Bu.siness Online, and the phrase (Action Required) is missing after the
woi
words ACH Payment Requested. For these reasons, as well as others, I am sure that Exhibit B

is not a genuine BB&T email alert.

10. The foregoing statements ai'e true and correct.

19, 2.016 at 10;00 a.m, On that date, I appeared at
Boulevard, Suite 100, Arlington, Virguiia, along with colleagues from Grossberg Company and

Plaintiff Harriss counsel, and performed an onsite inspection of the records made available by

MakeOffices,

4. Although some of the requested records were produced for inspection, most of

MakeOfficess 2015 and 2016 books and records were not made available. For example,

MakeOffices did not produce a complete general ledger for 2015. In fact, the Companys CPO

admitted at the inspection that the 2015 ledger that was provided did not include any information

for the fmst half of 2015. In addition, both the 2016 general ledger and the incomplete 2015

ledger included only general, categoiy-level description.s of the Companys expenses, making it

impossible for us to determine MakoOfficess actual expenditures and conduct a meaningful

assessment of its accounts.

5. MakeOffices al.so did not make available any of the backup accounting

information - credit card .statements, invoices, receipts, etc. that underlies the general ledgei

........biitries ahe! fihahciar statements. We weres informed by tiie Companys CFO that most ot the

backup accounting infomiation is maintained in online accounting sy.stems, but he would not

provide us with access to those systems or the native versions of the books and records.

6, In light of the deficiencies in the records made available by MakeOffices, wc

provided the Companys CFO with a list of the accounting information for 2015 and 2016 that

should have been made available on October 19 but was not. Tliis information included:

The source documents for all expenses recorded in the general ledgers, including
credit card statements;
The general ledger for the fust-half of 2015;
. The back-up for all journal entries recorded in the general ledgers;
The cash receipts journals;

it is, and has been for the duration of my employnnent with MakeOffices my
wholehearted intent to protect the integrity of the books and records of the
Company. I have done nothing to suggest otherwise.
Until vour email correspondence at 8:30pm yesterday evening, I was functioning
with a cLr mderstanding that Raymond was CEO of the company. Your assertion
was the fkk S only one to the contrary that I know of. Furthermore, Rayrnond
strongly disagrees with your position on this issue. I find myself in a very uncleai
situation.
I SDoke with Jaimie Shapiro, the company's General Counsel, about this issue
todw The assertion that Raymond was no longer our CEO was news to her as
well, as she has yet to receive any correspondence on this matter from you or
anyone else.
Jaimie, copied here, has advised me as follows:
"Brian there is no doubt in my mind that your loyalty, like mine is first and
foremost to the company. As it stands currently, 1 cannot adequately advise you
on what Lion to take. I have received no formal notice Sf ?
terminated as CEO, and your email correspondence with Zach Wade is the drst 1
am hearing of this. Until I have something in an official capaafy
who's opinion is controlling on this matter, it is my advice that you hold Light It is
imperative that we wait until we ^^^^e certa/n assurances from
wav or the other. lA/e do not want to be used as pawns in this dispute. Any
misstep could jeopardize the company. Should we receive such assurances, 1
would be more cLfortable with you supplying documentation and com^^^ for
an audit (provided that you are given reasonable time to do so). It has ^co/rie
evident that the interpretation of the most recent operating agreement is in
disDUte and until these matters are resolved, I think it best foi us to pause.
AgLn our loyalty must remain with the company. Any reasonable person would
agfS that Lis not in the company's best interest to do anything until we receive
consult Clark Hill and/or DLA Piper for further
sufficient advice. We will need to
guidance, but this too, will take some time.

constant theme in these interviews was that the financial statements were in disarray and needed

to be brought into order and corrected as soon as possible.


March 2016,1 made it my priority to familiarize myself
6. Upon being hired in late

with the Companys past and present accounting practices and, relatedly, to create a clean and
of December 31,2015, so that there would be a
reasonably accurate set of financial statements as
reliable baseline from which to measure the Company's Bnancial performance in 2016 and the

years going forward. Reliable financial statements are essential for the Company to conduct its
real estate business - potential landlords insist on seeing them when considering whether to lease

to the Company - and are particularly important for a young, start-up entity like MakeOffices.

For the first two quarters of 2015 - from January through June- the Companys
7.
prepai-ed by the Kullman CPA, LLC (Kulhnan), an accounting firm
financial statements were
working with Rahbar. During that period, each of the Companys different locations was being
held by a different MakeOffices subsidiary entity;
accounted for separately. Each location was
account at bill.com that was used to invoice clients for
had its own bank account; had its own
of books and records. As a result, Kullman was having to
that location; and had its own set
for each location. Kullman recommended
prepare numerous sets of financial statements, one
that MakeOffices adopt an accounting software package called Intacct as a source system into

which the financial information (such as revenue, expenses, invoices, etc.) for all of the different

central repository for the Companys financial


locations could be entered, Intacct would act as a
ion; would allow financial statements to be more easily created and stored; and would

also allow for the creation of numerous different financial reports on

using Intacct for entry

3
tenure . Around the middle of 2015, MakeOffices hired a company called Incubator Finance
('Incubator), to assist with the implementation and use of the Intacct software, and it continued

to retain Incubator thioughout my tenure. Thus, beginning around the middle of 2015, Incubator

would handle inputting of data into Intacct and running reports as needed. However, Incubator

did not take over responsibility for determining the appropriate accounting theory relating to how

financial transactions would be coded and reported on the financial statements (e.g., balance

sheets, income statements, and statements of cash flows),


9. Rahbar got into a dispute with Kullman and fired them as the Company s

accountants after the second quarter of 2015. Incubator continued in its data entry role, but a

vacuum was created as it relates to determining the appropriate accounting theory for financial

transactions and coding financial transactions. It is unclear to me whether Rahbar was doing this
work for the company by himself for the transactions that occurred in the second half of 2015 or

whether he had assistance, but I believe Rahbars involvement to have been substantial. As a

result, I did not have a high degree of confidence in the financial statements produced for the

second half of 2015, and I was required to re-classify numerous transactions to create an accurate

year-end balance sheet for 2015, There were an inordinate amount of re-classifications, which

involved millions of dollars.

10. To correct this problem, I attempted to recreate the companys 2015 year-end
balance sheet. Given the number of accounts that had inaccurate values, it was like a scavenger

hunt for me to track down source documentation to determine the correct year-end balances for
the balance sheet accounts. Complicating matters, I ultimately learned that as of January 1,2016

the Companys bill.com accounts that were used to invoice clients had been consolidated into a

single account. The result of this was a situation where cash receipts were not properly

4
attributed to the correct location. Cash balances for each individual location were incorrectly

the financial statements. In addition, as I was going through the process of


recorded in
end balance sheet, I realized that the Company had significantly
correcting the 2015 year-
overstated the value of its assets. I also realized that this meant Rahbar had sent these inflated

numbers to prospective landlords - now the Company s actual landlords - when applying to lease
space from them to open new locations. The landlords used the numbers as the basis for their

evaluation as to whether the Company was creditworthy and would be able to meet its rent

obligations.
of correcting the books, I had developed a balance sheet
11. At the end of my process
of the end of 2015 that I believed was reasonably accurate. I similarly revised and brought up
as
to date the Companys books for the first quarter of 2016. At the time of my hire, only a subset
of the financial transactions for the first quarter had been recorded by the Company. These

the clients and the corresponding rent payments from them. There was
included the invoices to

authority to provide the wire instructions to Avison Young. This was the moment when I

18. On the evening of December 6,2016,1 called Defendant Jaimie Shapiro to share

what I had just learned. Shapiro had two roles at MakeOffices: Chief of Staff and General
Counsel. Her Chief of Staff role was operational, not legal, in nature. She was responsible for,

among other things, traveling to the Companys various locations to manage the staff who ran

them, developing procedures, and other operations issues. I turned to Shapiro because of her role
General Counsel. I wanted to report these payments to the Companys outside litigation
as
counsel, Clark Hill, but Shapiro wanted me to meet with her and Rahbar first.

Accordingly, on the morning of December 7, 2016,1 met with Rahbar and

Shapiro to allow Rahbar an opportunity
that went from Avison Young to Raezer Sponsors, instead of MakeOffices. Rahbar was

dismissive about the payments. He said that Eric Raezer was still owed money under a contract
that was put in place the year before. Rahbar claimed that similar contingent contracts were sent

to multiple marketing firms in connection with the renaming and rebranding of the Company
from Uber Offices to MakeOffices. In offering an explanation as to
when it changed its name
of the payments appeared to be made to UO Management when it, in fact, went to

Raezer Sponsors, Rahbar indicated that a clerical error had been made on his part. After the
conclusion of the meeting, Shapiro initially expressed litUe concern with the situation. However.

8
at my urging, our next action was to relay my findings and the discussion points from the

meeting with Rahbar to the Clark Hill law firm.

20. In the meeting that occurred on the morning of December 7, Rahbar indicated

that contingent contracts similar in form and nature to the one entered into with Raezer Sponsors

were put in place with other marketing firms. Despite multiple requests from me, I was provided

with only one other executed contract on the afternoon of December 29,2016, the day before I

left MakeOffices. That contract was with Falcon Labs and the initial version that was provided

to me by Shapiro did not include its notary page. After I inquired about the missing notary page,
Shapiro quickly (ha, within minutes) provided me an alternate version of the contract that

included the notary page. However, one of the dates on the notary page did not match the

agreement date. I was shocked that MakeOffices purportedly had a $1 million obligation that

was not reflected on its financial statements. The amount of the contract was shocking because,

at the time the contract with Raezer was supposedly entered into, the Company only had

approximately $800,000 - $1 million in cash to fund all of its operations. Rahbar had effectively

pledged all of the Companys operating funds to Raezer for what were minimal services.

21. Because I was unsatisfied with Rahbars explanations at our meeting on the

ins of December 7,1 decided to investigate the matter further on my own. First, I met with
morning
Shapiro at a coffee shop in Clarendon and explained the gravity of Rahbars diversion of these

funds to Raezer Sponsors, She recognized how serious this matter was. I then went to BB&T,

where MakeOffices has a number of accounts, to see who had access to the various accounts.

Rahbar is the master administrator on a suite of BB&T accounts, some of which are related to

MakeOffices, others of which are not. He had given me access only to the accounts that were

related to MakeOffices. As the BB&T banker was reviewing the various MakeOffices accounts

9
with me, I noticed that an account for Raezer Sponsors appeared in Raymonds banking profile.

This was surprising to me because Raezer Sponsors was not one of MakeOfficess subsidiaries
or affiliates. I saw that, rather than solely belonging to Eric Raezer as I had assumed, Rahbar

had access to the Raezer Sponsors banlc account. This meant to me that when Rahbar diverted

the Avison Young lease commissions that were owed to MakeOffices to Raezer Sponsors, he

had given himself direct access to the funds.

22. I went back through the documents that had been presented to me through the
saw
Harris UO and MRP UO litigation, which included bank statements for Raezer Sponsors. I
that Raezer Sponsors only opened a bank account with BB&T in April 2016 - just in time to

receive the first Avison Young lease commission payment of $215,068.50 - and that the

statements cut off just before the $400,000 lease commission payment that was made in

September. I also noticed that there was only minimal other activity in the account. One of the
few other transactions appeared to be $200,000 from Raezer Sponsors to a Rahbar personal

account.

23.
After discovering this new information about Raezer Sponsors, I met one last time

with Rahbar on the afternoon of December 7, 2016 to confront him with the information. Shapiro
was present as well. To carry out my fiduciary duty as CFO, I explained to Rahbar why the

transactions with Raezer Sponsors were problematic, but Rahbar again dismissed my concerns.

This time, he acknowledged having access to the Raezer Sponsors bank account, but said that the

only reason why he had access was to help Eric Raezer fill out his taxes. It did not make sense to

that Rahbar would need direct access to the Raezer Sponsors banlc account in order to help
me
prepare tax returns, particularly when those returns weie not due for another year. At this point,
earlier conversation that I had had with Rahbar about MakeOffices running low on
I recalled an

10
money, in which Rahbar stated that he could get Eric Raezer to loan the company $400,000 -

La, the same amount as the September Avison Young payment. I explained to Rahbar that it

appeared as if the Raezer Sponsors account was being used to give Rahbar an option on the

funds from Avison Young. From my perspective, Rahbars diversion of the Avison Young

dollars from the Company account to the Raezer Sponsors account enabled Rahbar to send funds

directly to himself or to the company in the form of a loan. I am unaware of any such loan,

however. In any event, Rahbar failed to provide me with a credible explanation as to why these

funds were in the Raezer Sponsors account, rather than a company account. To my knowledge,

Shapiro never asked Rahbar to return these funds to the Company.

24. In previous conversations with Rahbar, months before my findings on December

6,2016, he had informed me that there had been instances in the past where Avison Young had

directly paid vendors on behalf of MakeOffices. I had asked him to try to recall all of those

instances for me, since there was no practical way for me to verify the legitimacy of these vendor
payments. He outlined thi'ee or four occasions in past years where this had happened. He did

not mention either of the two payments to Raezer Sponsors. This is especially curious because

he was able to recall transactions for smaller dollar amounts, at points farther in the past to

people that he did not know as well as Raezer. However, he omitted from the list that he

provided me more recent transactions, for material dollar amounts, made to a personal friend.

For this reason, I believe that Rahbar intentionally withheld information from me relating to the

payments made by Avison Young to Raezer Sponsors.

Rahbars Tenant Improvement Scheme

25. Shortly after I was hired, Rahbar disclosed to me the following scheme.

reimburse the Company for certain types of build-out costs. Rahbar s


Landlords would agree to

11
plan was to falsely inflate certain elements of the Companys build-out costs and submit falsified

tenant reimbursement packages. This was done so that it would appear to the landlords that the

reimbursable build-out costs were higher than they actually were. To accomplish this, Rahbar

used Raezer Construction, LLC (which I understand replaced American Majestic Construction,

LLC, a business that he and his parents control) to pose as the general contractor for
MakeOffices build-out projects and to acquire necessary project materials, including glass.

carpet. lighting, and other furniture, fixtures, and equipment. Neither Raezer Construction nor
American Majestic, however, was the general contractor actually building the tenant

improvements; other contractors unaffiliated with the Company would actually perform the

work.
Unwittingly, the landlords would reimburse MakeOffices for hundreds of
26.
thousands of dollars or more of costs that the Company never actually incurred.

27, Given my exposure to the Companys financial statements, I believe it is likely


financial transactions relating to American Majestic that are not recorded
that there are numerous

properly in the Companys 2015 financial statements.

Rahbars Excessive Distributions


From the time I was hired up until a Board of Directors meeting that occurred
28,
in early June of 2016, my main focus was repairing the Companys financial statements so that I

could present a clean set of statements at the meeting that accurately reflected the Companys

financial condition. In the course of the process, I discovered that Rahbar had taken large

distributions of cash from the Company in the latter part of 2015 totaling hundreds of thousands

of dollars. These were very material amounts given the Companys cash position.

12
29. I worked with Rahbar to try to quantify the total amount of the distributions.

Because I was still new to the company, and given the poor state of the Companys books, I had

to rely on Rahbar for information about the distributions to try to recreate what he had done.

Rahbar told me that he had taken approximately $540,000 in distributions m 2015, but, as

discussed below, I later learned that he had taken a total of $715,000. His rationale for the

distributions was that he was entitled under the Operating Agreement to take tax distributions.

30. In the lawsuit MRP UO and Harris UO filed on behalf of MakeOffices in August

2016, they asserted that Rahbar had taken unauthorized and excessive distributions that were not

permitted under the Companys Operating Agreement. I decided to revisit and further research

the issue of Rahbars distributions in light of that claim. I was able to determine that the cash
distributions that Rahbar took in 2015 actually totaled $715,000, I also calculated that, assuming

that Rahbar was entitled to take distributions -1 am aware that there is a dispute as to whether he
was allowed to take distributions without notifying the Board of Directors and obtaining its prior

approval - he would only have been allowed to take $536,810 in tax distributions in 2015 based

2014 profitability. Rahbar did not submit any of his personal tax filings or tax documents for
on
my review, and, therefore, I could not know what his actual tax liability was. These distributions

were all taken by Rahbar in the 4' quarter of 2015. The Company would not have been in a
financial position for Rahbar to have taken these distributions but for the cash inflows allowed

under the Facility Agreement executed by Rahbar with EagleBank and the $1 million equity

investment of Harris UO. The line of credit under the Facility Agreement had been drawn down

in its entirety - a total of $3 million - by 12/31/15, In fact, the Company had $1.8 million in

of 12/31/15 and would have been in a negative $2.2 million cash position absent fully
cash as
drawing the line of credit and the Harris UO investment.

13
31. On December 13, 2016,1 sent a letter to the Companys Board of Directors,

which included information on Rahbars distributions. A true and correct copy of that letter is

attached hereto as Exhibit B.

32. In addition to the distributions to Rahbar in 2015,1 am aware that distributions

were made to Defendant Chris Juniors member company, Best Inbestuhment, LLC, and to

Ethan Assals member company. Current Yield With Participation Fund I, LLC. The latter

company also received distributions in 2016. No distributions to Hands UO or MRP UO were

made in 2015 or 2016.

Rahbars Use Of A Company Credit Card For Personal Expenses

33. When I began at MakeOffices in March 2016, Rahbar was using his personal

Bank of America credit card to pay both Company expenses and his personal expenses. He

would do a rough calculation of the amount of charges that were company related in nature and

make corresponding payments against his personal credit card out of the Companys checking

account. These payments were typically made in round-number amounts of tens of thousands of

dollars - e,g,, $30,000, $90,000, $50,000, etc. The fact that more detailed records werent kept

compounded to the problem of the comingling of company and personal funds.

34. Not long after I joined the Company, I urged Rahbar to discontinue the use of his
personal credit card to pay for personal and Company expenses and, instead, to use it for

company purchases only. Although the credit card was now to be used only for Company

expenses. the account number remained in Rahbars personal name. This meant that it was
Rahbar personally who received into his own personal account any cash rewards generated from

the cards use for Company purposes.

14
In my role as CFO, I began regularly reviewing the statements for Rahbars credit
35.

card. Given that in most cases receipts for purchases made on the credit card were not

maintained, the credit card statement often functioned as the receipt for the associated purchases.
Rahbar did not keep receipts, invoices, or other proof for his credit card expenditures, nor did he

Therefore, the best I could do was to scan the purchase descriptions on the statement itself,
unintelligible, and compare them with my memory or whatever
which frequently were vague or
other information that I could gather from others in the Company, As a practical matter, this

that I simply could not know whether they were personal to Rahbar or legitimate
approach meant

not tell whether a particular restaurant meal, for example, was purchased for a business purpose

knowing which meals were business related. However, the volume of meals related charges

leads me to believe that a significant portion of the meals expenses charged to the Company were

actually personal in nature.

15
The clearest example of Rahbars misuse of Company funds for meals and
37.
entertainment purposes relates to a trip he took to London with two other MakeOffices

employees In October 2016. Rahbar informed me that the trip was for business purposes to

identify potential locations for expansion. However, at the time of the trip MakeOffices had no

immediate plans to expand internationally, and even if the Company had the desire to do so, it
did not have the financial wherewithal to make that desire a reality. Over the course of the three-

day trip, Rahbar and his two companions spent approximately $15,000 on meals and

entertainment alone - or roughly $ 1,700 per person per day. While the appropriate level of

meals and entertainment spending can be somewhat subjective, in my experience this level of

spending is unreasonable and excessive, given that there was no clear and immediate business

reason for the trip.
