                                        - 9 -                                         

                  a.   The affidavit of Denis Brody which makes                       
                       clear that the Petitioners did not consent                     
                       to an extension of the statutory period                        
                       with respect to B.D.B.;                                        
                  b.   Respondent's Response To Petitioners'                          
                       Request To Admit and Respondent's Response                     
                       To Petitioners' Interrogatories.  These                        
                       documents show that there is no evidence                       
                       that Respondent intended to include                            
                       adjustments to B.D.B. within the Form                          
                       872-A, and that Respondent has no                              
                       witnesses who can address the intent of                        
                       Respondents at the time the documents were                     
                       executed;                                                      
                  c.   Portions of Respondent's file, which show                      
                       that the Respondent had every available                        
                       document necessary to show to the agent                        
                       that Petitioner was a partner in B.D.B.,                       
                       and not Thunderbird.  More importantly,                        
                       the documents requesting information of                        
                       Petitioner do not even refer to Thunderbird.                   

                  At the hearing of petitioners' cross-motion for                     
             summary judgment, petitioners' attorney formulated their                 
             position in the following terms:                                         

                  Our position is that we [are] addressing the same                   
                  issue [as the issue decided in Brody I] but that                    
                  it has not been resolved by the Court, by this                      
                  Court's prior memorandum opinion because there                      
                  are additional facts from which we are asking the                   
                  Court to reach a contrary conclusion and these                      
                  facts are very simple and we believe that they                      
                  are significant enough to justify this Court                        
                  rendering an opposite conclusion, and those facts                   
                  are as follows:  the fact that no other partner                     
                  of the BDB Partnership was requested to sign a                      
                  waiver or extension; the fact that there was no                     
                  indication in the Respondent's file that the                        
                  person who prepared the consent had any                             
                  documentation of the existence of the BDB                           
                  Partnership or Partnership files; and the fact
