          connection with the C-130 aircraft were made on December 7, 1972,           
          May 1, 1973, June 8, 1973, and January 16, 1974.  Each of these             
          three amendments was signed by petitioner on behalf of himself              
          and Sunvaco.                                                                
               Mr. Zanganeh was involved in Sunvaco transactions in some              
          respect.  A 1972 letter from Lockheed to Mr. Zanganeh discusses             
          the terms and conditions contained in the agreement with Sunvaco            
          in connection with the TriStar Model L-1011 aircraft purchased by           
          Iran National Airlines.  The letter asks Mr. Zanganeh to confirm            
          these terms on behalf of Sunvaco.  Another version of the same              
          letter addressed to Mr. Zanganeh worded somewhat differently                
          affirmed, "Pursuant to Mr. J. J. Zand's request", Lockheed's                
          understanding of the fee arrangement with Sunvaco.  The record              
          contains what appears to be a draft of a response by petitioner             
          to Lockheed's letter.  Mr. Zanganeh was paid $80,000 out of the             
          WHIP account in 1972 and $75,000 out of a CTC account in 1974.              
          Petitioner reimbursed himself for the CTC payment by writing a              
          check to himself on the Diesel Power Bank of America account.               
               In addition to these payments to Mr. Zanganeh, petitioner              
          and his employees instructed Lockheed how to allocate and where             
          to mail commission payments required under the Lockheed                     
          contracts.  In 1971 petitioner also instructed Price Waterhouse             
          to transfer to an account in Switzerland $1,000,000 of the total            
          amount of $1,229,700 expected to be received by WHIP from
