DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE
 

Bureau of Export Administration Action Affecting Export 
Privileges; David R. Rosen; Order Denying Permission To Apply for or 
Use Export Licenses

    On June 26, 1990, David R. Rosen (Rosen) was convicted in the U.S. 
District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania of violating 
Section 38 of the Arms Export Control Act (22 U.S.C.A. 2778 (1990)) 
(the AECA), among other crimes. Rosen was convicted on two counts of 
knowingly and willfully exporting and causing to be exported defense 
articles, specifically DSU-15 optical receivers and infra-red domes, 
from the United States to Taiwan, without obtaining the required 
licenses or written approval from the U.S. Department of State.
    Section 11(h) of the Export Administration Act of 1979, as amended 
(50 U.S.C.A. app. 2401-2420 (1991, Supp. 1993, and Pub. L. 103-277, 
July 5, 1994)) (the Act),\1\ provides that, at the discretion of the 
Secretary of Commerce,\2\ no person convicted of violating the AECA, or 
certain other provisions of the United States Code, shall be eligible 
to apply for or use any export license issued pursuant to, or provided 
by, the Act or the Export Administration Regulations (currently 
codified at 15 CFR Parts 768-799 (1994)) (the Regulations) for a period 
of up to 10 years from the date of the conviction. In addition, any 
export license issued pursuant to the Act in which such a person had 
any interest at the time of conviction may be revoked.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\The Act expired on August 20, 1994. Executive Order 12924 (59 
FR 43437, August 23, 1994) continued the Regulations in effect under 
the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (50 U.S.C.A. 
Secs. 1701-1706 (1991)).
    \2\Pursuant to appropriate delegations of authority that are 
reflected in the Regulations, the Director, Office of Export 
Licensing, in consultation with the Director, Office of Export 
Enforcement, exercises the authority granted to the Secretary by 
Section 11(h) of the Act.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Pursuant to Sections 770.15 and 772.1(g) of the Regulations, upon 
notification that a person has been convicted of violating the AECA, 
the Director, Office of Export Licensing, in consultation with the 
Director, Office of Export Enforcement, shall determine whether to deny 
that person permission to apply for or use any export license issued 
pursuant to, or provided by, the Act and the Regulations, and shall 
also determine whether to revoke any export license previously issued 
to such a person.
    Having received notice of Rosen's conviction for violating the 
AECA, and following consultations with the Director, Office of Export 
Enforcement, I have decided to deny Rosen permission to apply for or 
use any export license, including any general license, issued pursuant 
to, or provided by, the Act and the Regulations, for a period of 10 
years from the date of his conviction. The 10-year period ends on June 
26, 2000. I have also decided to revoke all export licenses issued 
pursuant to the Act in which Rosen had an interest at the time of his 
conviction.
    Accordingly, it is hereby ordered:
    I. All outstanding individual validated licenses in which Rosen 
appears or participates, in any manner or capacity, are hereby revoked 
and shall be returned forthwith to the Office of Export Licensing for 
cancellation. Further, all of Rosen's privileges of participating, in 
any manner or capacity, in any special licensing procedure, including, 
but not limited to, distribution licenses, are hereby revoked.
    II. Until June 26, 2000, David R. Rosen, 15 Sheffield Road, Natick, 
Massachusetts 01760, hereby is denied all privileges of participating, 
directly or indirectly, in any manner or capacity, in any transaction 
in the United States or abroad involving any commodity or technical 
data exported or to be exported from the United States, in whole or in 
part, and subject to the Regulations. Without limiting the generality 
of the foregoing, participation, either in the United States or abroad, 
shall include participation, directly or indirectly, in any manner or 
capacity: (i) As a party or as a representative of a party to any 
export license application submitted to the Department; (ii) in 
preparing or filing with the Department any export license application 
or request for reexport authorization, or any document to be submitted 
therewith; (iii) in obtaining from the Department or using any 
validated or general export license, reexport authorization or other 
export control document; (iv) in carrying on negotiations with respect 
to, or in receiving, ordering, buying, selling, delivering, storing, 
using, or disposing of, in whole or in part, any commodities or 
technical data exported or to be exported from the United States, and 
subject to the Regulations; and (v) in financing, forwarding, 
transporting, or other servicing of such commodities or technical data.
    III. After notice and opportunity for comment as provided in 
Sec. 770.15(h) of the Regulations, any person, firm, corporation, or 
business organization related to Rosen by affiliation, ownership, 
control, or position of responsibility in the conduct of trade or 
related services may also be subject to the provisions of this Order.
    IV. As provided in Section 787.12(a) of the Regulations, without 
prior disclosure of the facts to and specific authorization of the 
Office of Export Licensing, in consultation with the Office of Export 
Enforcement, no person may directly or indirectly, in any manner or 
capacity: (i) Apply for, obtain, or use any license, Shipper's Export 
Declaration, bill of lading, or other export control document relating 
to an export or reexport of commodities or technical data by, to, or 
for another person then subject to an order revoking or denying his 
export privileges or then excluded from practice before the Bureau of 
Export Administration; or (ii) order, buy, receive, use, sell, deliver, 
store, dispose of, forward, transport, finance, or otherwise service or 
participate: (a) In any transaction which may involve any commodity or 
technical data exported or to be exported from the United States; (b) 
in any reexport thereof; or (c) in any other transaction which is 
subject to the Export Administration Regulations, if the person denied 
export privileges may obtain any benefit or have any interest in, 
directly or indirectly, any of these transactions.
    V. This Order is effective immediately and shall remain in effect 
until June 26, 2000.
    VI. A copy of this Order shall be delivered to Rosen. This Order 
shall be published in the Federal Register.

    Dated: September 7, 1994.
Charles M. Guernieri,
Acting Director, Office of Export Licensing.
