2 THE DEPUTY CLERK: The matter now pending before this
3 Court, Criminal Action Number TDC 15-CR-0336, United States of
4 America versus Daren Condrey. We're here for the purpose of an
5 arraignment/guilty plea.
6 Counsel, please identify yourselves for the record.
7 MR. CESTARO: Christopher Cestaro, David Salem and
8 Ephraim Wernick on behalf of the United States, Your Honor.
9 We're also joined at counsel table by Special Agent David Gadren
10 with the Department of Energy.
11 And at this time, the government would like to unseal
12 this case, anything pertaining to this case, including the
13 Information.
14 THE COURT: Okay. I will grant the Motion to Unseal
15 all matters in this case that have been previously sealed.
16 And for the defense.
17 MR. BONSIB: Good morning, Your Honor. Robert Bonsib
18 on behalf of Daren Condrey who is present and ready to proceed
19 with the plea.
20 THE COURT: Good morning, Mr. Bonsib.
21 So, we are ready to proceed, it sounds like.
22 Now, just so I understand it, Mr. Cestaro, has the
23 defendant had an initial appearance on this charge or not? Is
24 there a complaint earlier?
25 MR. CESTARO: There was an earlier complaint. This

3
1 charge was being charged by Information and there has not been
2 an initial appearance on this charge.
3 THE COURT: So, should we do that as part as this
4 proceeding?
5 MR. CESTARO: Yes, Your Honor.
6 THE COURT: So, we'll start then with some aspects of
7 the initial appearance.
8 Mr. Condrey, do you have a copy of the Information
9 that is the written document stating the charges against you?
10 THE DEFENDANT: Yes, Your Honor.
11 THE COURT: Now, the United States Attorney is
12 charging you in an Information with the following crime;
13 conspiracy to violate the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and to
14 commit wire fraud in violation of 18 United States Code Section
15 371.
16 Mr. Cestaro, what is the maximum penalty for this
17 offense?
18 MR. CESTARO: The maximum term of imprisonment of five
19 years, supervised release of up to three years, a fine of not
20 more than $250,000 or twice the gain or loss associated with the
21 offense. And in addition, a special assessment of $100.
22 THE COURT: Okay. Do you understand the charge
23 against you, Mr. Cestaro? I'm sorry, Mr. Condrey.
25 THE COURT: Now, let me advise you of certain rights

4
1 you have under the Constitution. First, you the right to remain
2 silent. You are not required to make any statement or answer
3 any questions about these charges. If you do make a statement,
4 it can be used against you by the government in its case against
5 you in other proceedings. If you begin to make a statement, you
6 can stop at any time and decline to say anything further.
7 Do you understand your right to remain silent?
9 THE COURT: You also have the right to be represented
10 by counsel throughout this case. And if you cannot afford
11 counsel, you can request that counsel be appointed to represent
12 you. Do you understand that right?
14 THE COURT: And I understand you do have counsel with
15 you today, Mr. Bonsib; is that correct?
17 THE COURT: Now, because we're proceeding to an
18 arraignment and Rule 11 proceeding, I suggest we defer any
19 discussion of bail conditions until the end of the proceeding.
20 I understand there are already some conditions of release in
21 place?
22 MR. BONSIB: That's correct, Your Honor. He's been
23 under pre-trial supervision for a number of months.
24 THE COURT: So, with that, let's move on to the Rule
25 11 proceeding.
5
1 Mr. Condrey, I understand you're prepared to plead
2 guilty in this case and pleading guilty to a federal crime is a
3 serious step. It will mean you have been convicted a federal
4 crime and that you have been convicted without taking advantage
5 of your constitutional right to a trial by jury. So, in order
6 to accept your plea, I must be satisfied that your plea is being
7 made knowingly and voluntarily. And to do so, I will ask you a
8 series of questions and will listen carefully to your responses.
9 The first step is to have the clerk administer an oath
10 to you to ensure that you tell the truth.
11 DAREN CONDREY, DEFENDANT, SWORN
12 THE DEPUTY CLERK: Thank you, sir. You may put your
13 hand down.
14 Will you please state your full name for the record?
15 THE DEFENDANT: Daren James Condrey.
16 THE DEPUTY CLERK: Thank you. You may be seated.
17 THE COURT: Okay. So, Mr. Condrey, do you understand
18 that you're now under oath and you must answer all questions
19 truthfully?
21 THE COURT: Do you understand if you answer any of my
22 questions falsely, your answers may later be used against you in
23 another prosecution for perjury or making a false statement?
25 THE COURT: How old are you, sir?

6
1 THE DEFENDANT: Forty-nine.
2 THE COURT: And where were you born?
3 THE DEFENDANT: Oahu, Hawaii.
4 THE COURT: And how far did you go in school?
5 THE DEFENDANT: Two years of college.
6 THE COURT: Have you been treated recently for any
7 mental illness or addiction to narcotic drugs of any kind?
8 THE DEFENDANT: No, Your Honor.
9 THE COURT: Are you currently under the influence of
10 any drug, medication or alcoholic beverage of any kind?
12 THE COURT: Now, you are here today with your
13 attorney, Mr. Bonsib. Are you fully satisfied with your
14 attorney's representation, advice and counsel in this case?
16 THE COURT: Earlier I asked if you had received a copy
17 the Information; that is, the written charges made against you.
18 And the charge, as we indicated was, is conspiracy to violate
19 the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and to commit wire fraud in
20 violation of 18 United States Code Section 371.
21 Have you fully discussed this charge and the case in
22 general with your attorney?
24 THE COURT: Do you understand the charge against you?

7
1 THE COURT: And so you fully understand, in order to
2 find you guilty of conspiracy to violate the Foreign Corrupt
3 Practices Act and wire fraud, the government would have to prove
4 the following elements or things at a trial. First, that you
5 and at least one other person entered into an unlawful
6 agreement. Second, that you knowingly and willfully became a
7 member of that agreement or conspiracy. Third, that at least
8 one member of the conspiracy knowingly committed at least one
9 overt act. And fourth, that that overt act was committed to
10 further some objective of the conspiracy. Do you understand
11 that those are the things the government would have to prove to
12 find you guilty in this case?
14 THE COURT: Do you have any questions about the charge
15 against you?
17 THE COURT: Now, this charge has been brought through
18 a document called an Information. It has not been brought by an
19 Indictment, and I will explain the difference in a minute. I
20 have before me a signed Waiver of Indictment. Is that your
21 signature on this document?
23 THE COURT: Now, under the Constitution, you have a
24 constitutional right to be charged by an Indictment of the Grand
25 Jury. A Grand Jury is composed of 16 to 23 citizens from the

8
1 community. And in order to obtain an Indictment, the government
2 must present evidence to the Grand Jury that would convince at
3 least 12 of the grand jurors to find that there was probable
4 cause to believe that you committed the crime.
5 The Grand Jury upon receiving this evidence might or
6 might not indict you. Do you understand that you have a right
7 to be charged only by an Indictment?
9 THE COURT: You can proceed without an Indictment if
10 you waive or give up your right to the Indictment. And if you
11 do so, the case proceeds against you without having been
12 presented to a Grand Jury based simply on an Information, this
13 document filed by the United States Attorney, just as though you
14 had been indicted. Do you agree to waive or give your right to
15 be charged only by Indictment?
17 THE COURT: And have you discussed waiving your right
18 to Indictment by a Grand Jury with your attorney?
20 THE COURT: Has anyone made any threats against you to
21 cause you to waive your right to Indictment?
23 THE COURT: Other than what is in the Plea Agreement,
24 has anyone made any promises to you to cause you to waive your
25 right to Indictment?
9
2 THE COURT: Mr. Bonsib, is there any reason the
3 defendant should not waive Indictment in this case?
5 THE COURT: So, I do find that the defendant as
6 knowingly and voluntarily waived his right to Indictment and
7 will accept the signed waiver.
8 Now, Mr. Condrey, if you plead guilty, you will be
9 giving up some important rights, which I'd like to go over with
10 you. First, under our system of justice, even though you have
11 been charged with a crime, you are innocent until proven guilty.
12 You are not required to plead guilty and you have a right
13 to plead not guilty and persist in that plea throughout the
14 case. But by pleading guilty, you would be giving up that
15 right. Do you understand that?
17 THE COURT: Under our Constitution, when you are
18 charged with a crime, you have the right to a trial by a jury.
19 So, if you do not plead guilty, we'll have a panel of citizens
20 come from Maryland to the courthouse and we'll select 12 jurors
21 to sit in the jury box in the courtroom here to hear your case.
22 You and your attorney would have the right to participate in the
23 jury selection process to assure the jurors selected are fair
24 and impartial.
25 In order for you to be found guilty, the jury would

10
1 have to agree on a unanimous verdict of guilt. Meaning that all
2 12 would have to agree you are guilty. Do you understand that?
4 THE COURT: You also understand that if you do not
5 want to have a jury trial, the trial could be before a judge
6 only if you, the government and the Court all agree.
8 THE COURT: Now, at your trial, you would not be
9 required to prove anything. You would be presumed innocent and
10 you would not be found guilty unless the government proved your
11 guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. And I would instruct the jury
12 that they are to presume that you are innocent and the
13 government has this burden of proving your guilt beyond a
14 reasonable doubt. Do you understand?
16 THE COURT: At your trial, you would have the right to
17 be represented by counsel. And if it became necessary, the
18 Court would appoint counsel to represent you at trial and every
19 other stage of the case. Do you understand that?
21 THE COURT: Now, at trial you would have the right to
22 confront the witnesses against you. Meaning the witnesses would
23 have to come into the courtroom and sit in the witness box in
24 your presence and testify. And you would have the right to have
25 your attorney cross-examine the witnesses, to question them, to

11
1 challenge their testimony.
2 You would also have the right to testify yourself and
3 to present other witnesses and evidence -- other witnesses and
4 evidence on your behalf. And if there are witnesses who would
5 be unwilling to come to testify on your behalf, the Court would
6 issue subpoenas to require them to come and testify. Do you
7 understand those rights?
9 THE COURT: On the other hand, if you do not want to
10 testify, you have an absolute right not to testify at the trial.
11 You're not required to present any evidence at all. And I would
12 instruct the jury that they are not allowed to draw any negative
13 inference; that is, they cannot hold it against you if you do
14 not testify or if you do not present any evidence. Do you
15 understand those rights?
17 THE COURT: Do you also understand that if you were
18 found guilty at a trial, you would have the right to appeal both
19 the verdict and the Court's decisions before and during the
20 trial to see if any errors were committed that would require a
21 new trial or dismissal of the charges. Do you understand your
22 right to appeal?
24 THE COURT: And so, do you understand that by entering
25 a plea of guilty, there will be no trial, you will be adjudged

12
1 guilty at that time and you will have waived or given up your
2 right to a trial, as well as all the other rights associated
3 with a trial that I just mentioned?
5 THE COURT: Now, do you understand that if you were
6 adjudged guilty of a felony, it may also deprive you of valuable
7 civil rights, such as the right to vote, the right to serve on a
8 jury and the right to possess a firearm?
10 THE COURT: And I think you indicated having been born
11 Hawaii that you are a U.S. citizen; is that correct?
13 THE COURT: So, I won't go over the consequences for
14 non-citizens in this proceeding.
15 Now, I understand that you have entered into a Plea
16 Agreement with the government. It's dated June 1st and I have
17 it before me. Is this your signature on this document?
19 THE COURT: Mr. Bonsib, did you convey all plea offers
20 by the government in this case to your client?
21 MR. BONSIB: I did, Your Honor.
22 THE COURT: Thank you.
23 Mr. Condrey, did you have an opportunity to read and
24 discuss the Plea Agreement with your attorney before you signed
25 it?
13
2 THE COURT: Do you understand the terms of the Plea
3 Agreement?
5 THE COURT: Do you have any questions about it?
7 THE COURT: Now, if you look at paragraph 13 of the
8 Plea Agreement, it's entitled "Court Not a Party". And what
9 this paragraph indicates is that this is an agreement between
10 the United States Attorneys' office and you as negotiated by
11 your lawyer and the prosecutor. And so, the Court is not a
12 party to this Agreement, is not bound by any of its terms. So
13 the terms of the Plea Agreement are only recommendations to the
14 Court, which I could reject. And if I did so, you would not be
15 able to withdraw your guilty plea. Do you understand that?
17 THE COURT: Now, do you understand that in terms of
18 the potential sentence in this case, the Court; that is, I as
19 the Judge will impose a sentence upon you?
21 THE COURT: Now, you've already -- we've already gone
22 over the maximum penalties in this case, five years of
23 imprisonment, fine of $250,000, three years supervised release
24 and a $100 special assessment. Do you understand that those are
25 the maximum penalties?

14
2 THE COURT: And when I refer to supervised release,
3 what I mean is that there is a period that -- would constitute a
4 period of time after you have been released from any
5 imprisonment during which you would be required to follow
6 certain conditions imposed by the Court and violation of any of
7 those conditions could result in additional jail time. Do you
8 understand that?
10 THE COURT: And do you also understand when I
11 mentioned a special assessment, that is a legal requirement that
12 you pay $100 for every count of conviction?
14 THE COURT: Do you also understand that as part of
15 your sentence, the Court has the authority to order you to pay
16 restitution, which means that as part of the sentence you could
17 be required to pay back any victims of the crime for any losses
18 that they incurred?
20 THE COURT: Now, in determining your sentence, I will
21 consider the United States Sentencing Guidelines. These are a
22 set of guidelines established by the United States Sentencing
23 Commission under authority of Congress, which provide for an
24 advisory range for a sentence based on the specific crime and
25 conviction, specific factors relating to the offense, that

15
1 reflect the seriousness of the offense and your criminal
2 history.
3 Have you discussed the sentencing guidelines with your
4 attorney and how they may apply in this case?
6 THE COURT: At this time, I'd ask Mr. Cestaro to
7 summarize the Plea Agreement terms as they relate to the
8 guidelines calculations and any commitments by either side as
9 they relate to a possible sentence, and also, the terms of the
10 Plea Agreement as they relate to forfeiture.
12 As outlined beginning in paragraph six of the
13 agreement, this office and the defendant understand, agree,
14 stipulate to the Statement of Facts set forth in Attachment A
15 hereto, which this office would prove beyond a reasonable doubt
16 and set forth the following agreed upon and disputed applicable
17 sentencing guideline factors.
18 The base offense level is 12. The offense level is
19 increased by two levels because there was more than one bribe.
20 The value the payment or benefit received or to be received will
21 be established at sentencing and the offense level will be
22 further increased.
23 The offense level will increase -- increase will not
24 be less than 16 levels, because the value of the payment is more
25 than $1 million. Further, the offense level will not be more

16
1 than 24 levels because the value of the benefit received or to
2 be received will not be more than $100 million.
3 The adjusted offense level will be established at
4 sentencing, but will not be less than 30, nor greater than 38.
5 This office does not oppose a two-level reduction in the
6 defendant's adjusted offense level based upon the defendant's
7 recognition and affirmative acceptance of personal
8 responsibility for his criminal conduct.
9 This office agrees to make a motion pursuant to
10 Section 3E1.1 for an additional one level decrease in
11 recognition of the defendant's timely notification of his
12 intention to plead guilty.
13 This office may oppose any adjustment for acceptance
14 of responsibility if the defendant fails to admit each and every
15 item in the factual stipulation, denies involvement in the
16 offense, gives conflicting statements about his involvement, is
17 untruthful with the Court, this office or the United States
18 Probation Office; obstructs or attempts to obstruct justice
19 prior to sentencing, engage in any criminal conduct between the
20 date of the agreement and the date of sentencing or attempts to
21 withdraw his plea of guilty.
22 The final offense level will be established at
23 sentencing, but will be between 27 and 35.
24 The defendant understands that there is no agreement
25 as to his criminal history or criminal history category, and

17
1 that his criminal history could alter the offense level if he is
2 a career offender or if the instant offense was part of a
3 pattern of criminal conduct from which he derived a substantial
4 portion of his income.
5 This office and defendant agree that with respect to
6 the calculation of the advisory guideline range, with the
7 exception of the establishment of the offense level increase,
8 for the value of the benefit received or to be received at
9 sentencing, no other offense characteristics, sentencing
10 guideline factors, potential departures or adjustments set forth
11 in the United States Sentencing Guidelines will be raised or are
12 in dispute.
13 At the time of sentencing, this office will recommend
14 a reasonable sentence.
15 THE COURT: Thank you.
16 Having heard that description of the agreement as they
17 relate to the guidelines calculations and any recommendations by
18 the government, do you understand the description outlined by
19 the prosecutor, Mr. Condrey?
21 THE COURT: And just to make sure that you understand
22 the key parts of that, if you look at the chart in front of you,
23 this is a table from the United States Sentencing Guidelines and
24 it lays out how a advisory sentence range is calculated that
25 would then be provided to the judge.

18
1 The offense levels that Mr. Cestaro referenced are the
2 numbers in the far left column. And so, under the Plea
3 Agreement, you have agreed that the range of the offense level
4 be either 27 or 35, or somewhere in between. And so, the
5 numbers to the right of that column represent the advisory
6 sentencing range that the guidelines would contemplate based on
7 your criminal history.
8 The column one is if you have little or no criminal
9 history. Column six is if you have a significant criminal
10 history. But what this indicates, if you look, is that under 27
11 that even with little or no criminal history, the advisory range
12 for a sentence would be 70 to 87 months. And if the offense
13 level were as high as 35, it could be 168 to 210 months.
14 Now, recognizing again that the maximum penalty in
15 this case is 60 months, which is five years, but those are the
16 ranges that the guidelines would calculate. And if your
17 criminal history is higher, you can see the numbers would be
18 higher than that.
19 Do you understand that's how the guidelines would work
20 in this case based on the terms of the Plea Agreement?
22 THE COURT: Now, in determining a sentence, I will be
23 obligated to calculate the advisory sentencing guidelines range
24 myself in considering, reaching a sentence, but I may not agree
25 with the range recommended in the Plea Agreement by the parties.

19
1 Do you understand that?
3 THE COURT: I also will not calculate that range
4 today. I will wait until I receive a Presentence Report
5 prepared by the U.S. Probation Office. And that report will
6 describe the offense and your criminal history, and provide
7 recommended calculations. You and your attorney will have the
8 opportunity to provide input into that report and raise
9 objections to the probation officer's facts and calculations.
10 Do you understand?
12 THE COURT: Now, as I indicate, I'm not bound to give
13 you a -- well, even once I calculate the guidelines range, I'm
14 not bound to give you a sentence within the guidelines range.
15 Within the guidelines are reasons by which I may be able to
16 depart from the guideline range; that is, to give you a sentence
17 higher, lower or within the guidelines range. Do you understand
18 that?
20 THE COURT: And in addition to that, I'm required to
21 consider certain factors in federal law with respect to
22 determining the sentence. Those factors include the nature and
23 circumstances of the offense; the history and characteristics of
24 the defendant; the need for the sentence to reflect the
25 seriousness of the offense, to promote respect for the law, to

20
1 provide for just punishment, to afford adequate deterrence, to
2 protect the public from further crimes and to provide the
3 defendant with needed training, medical care or treatment in the
4 most effective manner.
5 Based on all of those factors, I could decide to
6 impose a sentence above, below or within the guidelines range so
7 long as it's at or below the maximum penalty. Do you understand
8 that?
10 THE COURT: The main point I'm trying to convey is
11 that the sentence ultimately imposed may be different from any
12 estimated sentence that the prosecutor or your attorney may have
13 given you. And if the sentence turns out to be different from
14 that, you would not be allowed to withdraw your guilty plea. Do
15 you understand that?
17 THE COURT: You also understand that there's no parole
18 in the federal criminal justice system and if you are sentenced
19 to prison, you will not be released on parole?
21 THE COURT: Do you understand that under the terms of
22 the Plea Agreement, and this is, I believe, paragraph 11 of the
23 Plea Agreement, you have waived or given up your right to appeal
24 your conviction? That is, the right to appeal my decision to
25 accept your guilty plea.

21
2 THE COURT: And do you also understand that under the
3 same provision, you are waiving or giving up your right to
4 appeal the sentence, unless it is higher than the advisory
5 guideline range under the government's calculation or this
6 offense level 35 as calculated in the Plea Agreement. Do you
7 understand that?
9 THE COURT: At this time, I'd like to move into a
10 sealed portion of the proceeding. Should we do that here at the
11 bench?
12 (Bench conference.)
13 It is the policy of this court that every guilty plea
14 and sentencing proceeding include a bench conference concerning
15 whether the defendant is or is not cooperating.
16 (Open court.)
17 THE COURT: We'll return back to the unsealed portion
18 of the proceedings.
19 Mr. Condrey, if you'll look at paragraph 19 of the
20 Plea Agreement entitled, "Entire Agreement", I'd like to ask you
21 whether this Agreement represents the full agreement or
22 understanding you have with the government?
23 MR. BONSIB: Sorry, Your Honor. What was the
24 reference?
25 THE COURT: Page 7, paragraph 14. I'm sorry.

22
1 MR. BONSIB: All right.
3 THE COURT: Has anyone made any promises or assurances
4 that are not contained in the Plea Agreement to persuade you to
5 accept the Plea Agreement or to plead guilty in general?
7 THE COURT: Has anyone threatened you in any way to
8 persuade you to accept the Plea Agreement or plead guilty in
9 general?
11 THE COURT: Do you understand all the possible
12 consequences of the plea that I have described to you?
14 THE COURT: Now, in order to accept your guilty plea,
15 I need to be satisfied that there is an independent basis in
16 fact for the plea; that is, that you are, in fact, guilty of
17 this offense.
18 So, at this time, I'd like to ask Mr. Cestaro to
19 summarize the factual basis for the plea; that is, the facts the
20 government would prove at trial if this case were to proceed to
21 trial.
23 If this matter had proceeded to trial, the government
24 would have proven the following facts beyond a reasonable doubt.
25 The parties agree that the following facts do not encompass all
23
1 of the facts that would have been proven if this matter
2 proceeded to trial.
3 Mr. Condrey was a citizen of the United States and a
4 resident of Maryland. Mr. Condrey was an owner and executive of
5 Transportation Corporation A from about August 1998 through
6 about October, 2014. Mr. Condrey was the co-president of
7 Transportation Corporation A from about January, 2010 to about
8 October, 2014. Thus, Mr. Condrey was a domestic concern and an
9 officer, employee and agent of a domestic concern as that term
10 is used in the FCPA.
11 Transportation Corporation A was a United States
12 company headquartered in Maryland and, thus, a domestic concern
13 as that term is used in the FCPA. Transportation Corporation A
14 was in the business of providing logistical support services for
15 the transportation of nuclear materials to customers in the
16 United States and to foreign customers.
17 These foreign customers included JSC Techsnabexport,
18 which I will refer to as TENEX. TENEX supplied uranium and
19 uranium enrichment services to nuclear power companies
20 throughout the world on behalf of the government of the Russian
21 Federation. TENEX was indirectly owned and controlled by, and
22 performed functions of the government of the Russian Federation
23 and thus was an agency and instrumentality of a foreign
24 government as those terms are used in the FCPA.
25 TENEX established a wholly-owned subsidiary company

24
1 located in the United States in about October, 2010. The name
2 of that corporation is TENAM Corporation. TENAM was TENEX's
3 official representative office in the United States. TENAM was
4 indirectly owned and controlled by, and performed functions of
5 the government of the Russian Federation and, thus, was an
6 agency and instrumentality of a foreign government as those
7 terms are used in the FCPA.
8 Foreign Official One, a national of the Russian
9 Federation was a director of TENEX from at least 2004 through
10 about October, 2010, and was the president of TENAM from in or
11 about October, 2010 through in or about October, 2014. Foreign
12 Official One is a foreign official as that term is used in the
13 FCPA. From in or about December, 2011 through in or about
14 October, 2014, Foreign Official One was a resident of Maryland.
15 Co-Conspirator One was an owner and executive of
16 Transportation Corporation A from about 1998 to about December,
17 2009, and a consultant to Transportation Corporation A from
18 about January, 2010 through about 2011.
19 Cylinder Corporation A was a company based in Ohio,
20 which engaged in the manufacture of tanks and vessels for the
21 oil and gas, nuclear and marine markets. Cylinder Corporation A
22 secured contracts with TENEX to supply storage and
23 transportation cylinders. In about September, 2012, Cylinder
24 Corporation A was acquired by another company headquartered in
25 Ohio, which I will refer to as the Ohio Corporation.

25
1 Between about 2004 through in or about 2014 in the
2 District of Maryland and elsewhere, Mr. Condrey knowingly
3 combined, conspired, confederated and agreed with others to
4 commit offenses against the United States. Namely, to violate
5 the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act in violation of 15 U.S.C.
6 United States Code 78dd-2 and to commit wire fraud in violation
7 of 18 United States Code Section 1343, all in violation of Title
8 18 United States Code Section 371.
9 Specifically, Mr. Condrey and other co-conspirators,
10 including Co-Conspirator One, agreed to make payments and cause
11 Transportation Corporation A to make payments at the direction
12 of and for the benefit of Foreign Official One in order to
13 obtain or retain business with TENEX.
14 Further, in order to effectuate the bribery payments
15 to Foreign Official One, Mr. Condrey and other co-conspirators
16 obtained the money used to pay the bribes by inflating the
17 prices Transportation Corporation A charged TENEX for services
18 thereby depriving TENEX of money and property in violation of
19 Title 18 United States Code Section 1343.
20 In furtherance of the conspiracy and to effect the
21 objects of the conspiracy, Mr. Condrey and other co-conspirators
22 discussed making bribe payments with Foreign Official One in
23 person and via electronic mail. For example, on or about
24 October 30th, 2013, Mr. Condrey sent an e-mail to Foreign
25 Official One with the subject "LF" that attached the details of
26
1 the payment that was made in furtherance of the scheme. The
2 terms "LF", "Lucky Figure", "Cake" and "remuneration" were code
3 words used by Mr. Condrey and others to describe the bribe
4 payments that were promised and made to Foreign Official One.
5 In order to make the bribe payments to Foreign
6 Official One, Mr. Condrey and other co-conspirators caused
7 Transportation Corporation A to make payments to offshore bank
8 accounts at the direction of and for the benefit of Foreign
9 Official One, including a wire transfer in the amount of $77,896
10 from Transportation Corporation A's bank account in Maryland on
11 October 30th, 2013, to a bank located in Zurich, Switzerland.
12 Mr. Condrey knew it was wrong to make and agree to
13 make the bribe payments. Mr. Condrey also knew that the bribe
14 payments were made for the benefit of Foreign Official One, and
15 the payments were promised and made in order to influence
16 Foreign Official One in his official capacity and to secure an
17 improper advantage for Transportation Corporation A.
18 Further, as part of the conspiracy, Mr. Condrey and
19 other co-conspirators caused Transportation Corporation A to
20 increase the prices it charged TENEX by the amount of the bribe
21 payments promised to Foreign Official One.
22 Mr. Condrey and other co-conspirators sent and caused
23 Transportation Corporation A to send quotations and invoices to
24 TENEX that hid the cost of the bribe payments promised to
25 Foreign Official One within the total of Transportation

27
1 Corporation A's pricing. While keeping the bribe payments
2 hidden from TENEX, Mr. Condrey sent e-mails to Foreign Official
3 One regarding the amount of the bribe payments that were
4 promised and paid in furtherance of the scheme.
5 Mr. Condrey and others also caused Transportation
6 Corporation A to act as an intermediary for a payment Ohio
7 Corporation made for the benefit of Foreign Official One.
8 Specifically, on or about November 29th, 2013, Ohio Corporation
9 made a payment to Transportation Corporation A in the amount of
10 $30,900 with the understanding that Transportation Corporation A
11 would send the money to an account at the direction of Foreign
12 Official One.
13 Shortly afterwards, on or about December 16th, 2013,
14 Transportation Corporation A sent a wire transfer in the amount
15 of $57,713.42 from Transportation Corporation A's bank account
16 in Maryland to a bank account in Zurich, Switzerland that
17 included the payment Ohio Corporation made for the benefit of
18 Foreign Official One, minus a fee, in addition to a payment
19 Transportation Corporation A made to the benefit of Foreign
20 Official One.
21 From 2004 through 2014, Mr. Condrey and other
22 co-conspirators caused Transportation Corporation A to make
23 bribe payments for the benefit of Foreign Official One totaling
24 more than $1 million in association with the bribery scheme
25 involving Transportation Corporation A.

28
1 THE COURT: Thank you, Mr. Cestaro.
2 Mr. Condrey, having heard the government's recitation
3 of the facts, do you agree with the government's factual
4 statement?
6 THE COURT: Did you do the things that the government
7 said that you did?
9 THE COURT: Are you pleading guilty because you are in
10 fact guilty?
12 THE COURT: Is there anything we discussed today that
13 you do not understand?
15 THE COURT: Mr. Cestaro, are there any other
16 provisions of the Plea Agreement or other issues we should
17 discuss with the defendant?
18 MR. CESTARO: No, Your Honor.
19 THE COURT: Mr. Bonsib, is there any reason that the
20 defendant should not -- we should not take the plea at this
21 time?
22 MR. BONSIB: No, Your Honor.
23 THE COURT: I'd ask the clerk now to take the plea.
24 And would the defendant please stand?
25 THE DEPUTY CLERK: Mr. Condrey, Judge Chuang has just

29
1 reviewed with you the charge contained within the Information.
2 Do you understand the charge placed against you?
3 THE DEFENDANT: Yes.
4 THE DEPUTY CLERK: Mr. Bonsib, as counsel for the
5 defendant, are you satisfied that the defendant understands what
6 he has been charged with?
7 MR. BONSIB: I am.
8 THE DEPUTY CLERK: Mr. Condrey, you have been charged
9 in Count One of the Information. What is your plea as to Count
10 One, conspiracy to violate the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and
11 to commit wire fraud?
12 THE DEFENDANT: Guilty.
13 THE DEPUTY CLERK: I'm sorry, can you please --
14 THE DEFENDANT: Guilty.
15 THE DEPUTY CLERK: Thank you, sir.
16 The plea is guilty as to Count One, conspiracy to
17 violate the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and to commit wire
18 fraud of the Information; is this correct?
19 THE DEFENDANT: Yes.
20 THE DEPUTY CLERK: Thank you, sir. You may be seated.
21 THE COURT: It is the finding of the Court, United
22 States versus Condrey, that the defendant is fully competent and
23 capable of entering an informed plea; that the defendant is
24 aware of the nature of the charge and the consequences of the
25 plea; and that the plea of guilty is a knowing and voluntary

30
1 plea supported by an independent bases, in fact, containing each
2 of the essential elements of the offense.
3 The plea is therefore accepted and the defendant is
4 now adjudged guilty of that offense in Count One of the
5 Information.
6 The next step, as I mentioned earlier, will be that
7 the United States Probation Office will prepare a written
8 Presentence Report to assist me in determining the appropriate
9 sentence. You will be asked to meet with the probation officer
10 to provide information for that report and your attorney may be
11 present during that meeting. You and your counsel will have the
12 opportunity to review the report and submit objections. And at
13 the sentencing hearing, you'll have the opportunity to make
14 statements to the Court as will your attorney and any victims of
15 the offense.
16 I believe we have agreed on a sentencing date of
17 November 2nd, 2015, at 10:30 a.m.; is that correct?
18 MR. BONSIB: Yes, Your Honor.
19 THE COURT: And I believe the defendant is currently
20 out on conditions of release; is that correct?
21 MR. BONSIB: That's correct, Your Honor.
23 THE COURT: And is there any proposal to modify or
24 change or revoke those conditions at this time?
25 MR. BONSIB: I don't think so, Your Honor.

31
2 THE COURT: So, we will continue with the current
3 conditions.
4 Mr. Condrey, I would just remind you again that it's
5 very important to abide by these conditions of release,
6 particularly now that you have pled guilty to this offense. If
7 there are any violations of any conditions, it is likely that
8 you will be detained pending sentencing, so. And also be aware
9 that a failure to appear at sentencing is a new criminal offense
10 and could lead to a separate term of imprisonment. Do you
11 understand that?
13 THE COURT: Is there anything else we should discuss
14 today?
16 MR. BONSIB: No, Your Honor. Thank you very much.
17 THE COURT: Thank you very much. See you in a few
18 months.
