                                                -253-                                                   
            Ballard’s and Lisle’s shares of the fees that Schaffel paid to                              
            IRA to them through TMT and Carlco, and he received his own share                           
            through BWK.                                                                                
            Kanter and Lisle attempted to assign income that they earned                                
            on Travelers transactions to THC, and they failed to report that                            
            income on their individual returns.  There is insufficient                                  
            evidence to demonstrate that funds that Schaffel paid to THC were                           
            distributed directly to Lisle.  Nevertheless, as discussed in the                           
            flow-of-funds analysis below, Kanter transferred at least a                                 
            portion of Lisle’s share of Travelers fees to Lisle through FPC                             
            Subventure Partnership.                                                                     
            4.  Frey                                                                                    
                  Frey was a real estate developer engaged in condominium                               
            conversion projects.  Condominium conversion projects generally                             
            were capital intensive enterprises.  Kanter told Frey that he                               
            could bring investors with substantial capital to Frey’s                                    
            condominium conversion projects but that he would only do so if                             
            Frey provided Kanter with an equal share of any development and                             
            management fees generated by the conversion projects.  Frey                                 
            orally agreed to this arrangement.  Although he remitted Kanter’s                           
            share of development and management fees to THC as directed by                              
            Kanter, Frey understood that it was Kanter who would bring the                              
            deep-pocket investors to his projects.
