BOEHM, ) a/k/a "Joe Millionaire", ) ) Defendant. ) No. A04-003-01 CR (JWS) NOTICE TO COURT OF RESTITUTION PLAN AND APPROVAL OF TRUST DOCUMENT EFTA00176707 COMES NOW the United States of America, by and through counsel, and hereby provides the Court with notice of the restitution plan in the above captioned case. In addition, attached hereto as Exhibit 1 is the Trust document for the Court's review and approval.' Title 18, U.S.C. §§ 3663A, mandates restitution for crimes of violence and cases in which there are identifiable victims. Such restitution includes, in relevant part: (2) in the case of an offense resulting in bodily injury to a victim— (A) pay an amount equal to the cost of necessary medical and related professional services and devices relating to physical, psychiatric, and psychological care, including nonmedical care and treatment rendered in accordance with a method of healing recognized by the law of the place of treatment; (B) pay an amount equal to the cost of necessary physical and occupational therapy and rehabilitation; and (C) reimburse the victim for income lost by such victim as a result of such offense; (4) in any case, reimburse the victim for lost income and necessary child care, transportation, and other expenses incurred during participation in the investigation or prosecution of the offense or attendance at proceedings related to the offense. The document is marked "draft" because we are awaiting final approval from the Trustee, which is expected before the sentencing hearing on April 27, 2005. 2 EFTA00176708 18 U.S.C. § 3663A(b). Such restitution must be paid to the victims or their guardians. 18 U.S.C. § 3663A(a)(2). Title 18, U.S.C. § 3664 sets forth the procedure for issuance of restitution. Generally, such information pertaining to restitution is provided to the probation officer and included in the presentence report. 18 U.S.C. § 3664(d). However, in a case where the victims losses are not readily ascertainable by the date of sentencing, the attorney for the Government shall inform the court, and the court shall set a date for the final determination of the victims losses not to exceed 90 days from sentencing. 18 U.S.C. § 3664(d)(5). The United States submits that this is such a case where victims losses are not readily ascertainable based on the nature of the conduct at issue. Within the plea agreement in the instant case, the parties agreed that any restitution should be paid out from the $1.2 million dollar corpus of the trust fund the defendant has agreed to establish. aeg Plea Agreement, p. 10. Accordingly, the United States has arranged for the payment of $1.2 million dollars into an escrow account with First National Bank Alaska as the escrow agent. The United States proposes, in the order attached hereto, that the Court instruct the United States to provide notice to all victims and their guardians of their ability to seek 3 EFTA00176709 restitution for any injury they sustained , as set forth above. Within 30 days of the entry of judgment in this case, the United States will submit such requests for restitution to the Court in a motion under seal, along with supporting documentation for approval, with a proposed order directing the escrow agent to pay such expenses if the Court finds that such expenses fall within the restitution statute. Because any restitution is deducted from the agreed $1.2 million, Boehm, through his attorney Kevin Fitzgerald, has waived notice of such motion, which may be filed with the Court ex parte under seal. After 30 days from judgment, the money from the escrow will be transferred to the trust fund, which will then become operational. The Trust Fund provides for future counseling, treatment, and educational and professional expenses for the victims in pro rata amounts. The Trust Document was drafted under the supervision of attorney Greg Taylor, of the law firm of Jermain, Dunnagan & Owens. Mr. Taylor and his law firm donated their time in view of the charitable nature of the Trust Fund. The Trustee will be First National Bank Alaska, which will be compensated out of the corpus of the trust for its services under its current fee schedule, attached to the Trust Document as Exhibit F. First National Bank Alaska has agreed to waive certain closing costs 4 EFTA00176710 associated with the establishment of the trust, in light of the charitable nature of the trust. Three "Trust Protectors" have agreed to assist the Trustee with administration of the trust by providing guidance and serving as an appeal board. These Trust Protectors are Detective Steven Boltz, of the Anchorage Police Department, Susan Sullivan, the director of Victims for Justice, and Susan Brown, the Executive Director of the Alaska Violent Crimes Compensation Board. These individuals have also agreed to donate their time in view of the charitable nature of the Trust. Generally, the Trust Fund allows for disbursements to 12 victims (whose names will be filed under seal), for qualified purposes, until the victims attain the age of 26 years old. After such time, the remaining pro rata share of the victims' allotment will be donated to a charity chosen by a majority of Trust Protectors, and approved by the Court as consistent with the intent of the Plea Agreement (drug treatment for children in Alaska). 5 EFTA00176711 Accordingly, the United States asks that the Court approve the proposed restitution plan and anticipated trust document, in the order annexed hereto.

RUSSO Assistant U.S. Attorney 2 EFTA00176716 JOSEF FRANZ BOEHM IRREVOCABLE TRUST FUND Introduction This TRUST AGREEMENT is made and entered into effective this day of , 2005, at Anchorage, Alaska, between Josef Franz Boehm (hereinafter "BOEHM" or "TRUSTOR") and the First National Bank Alaska, ("TRUSTEE"). This Trust Agreement is established to satisfy the terms of the Plea Agreement and Judgment entered in the United States District Court for the District of Alaska under Case No. A04-003-01 CR (JWS) (a copy of the Plea Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit A and incorporated by reference herein; the Judgment will be filed as a matter of public record in Case No. A04-003-01 CR (JWS) and is incorporated by reference herein); that is, as restitution to the victims of BOEHM and his co-defendants' criminal conduct as charged in the Fourth Superseding Indictment (a copy of which are attached hereto as Exhibit B and incorporated by reference herein). This Trust Agreement shall be construed in a manner consistent with the terms and purposes of the Plea Agreement and Judgment, and pursuant to Alaska Statutes Sections 13.126.125 - 13.126.310. The TRUSTEE shall receive, hold, administer, invest, reinvest and distribute, in accordance with the provisions of this Trust Agreement, all funds paid to the EFTA00176717 TRUSTEE by TRUSTOR and all income earned on said funds (hereafter the "Trust Fund") as provided by the terms of this Trust Agreement. The Trust Protectors Three (3) Trust Protectors (hereinafter the "TRUST PROTECTORS") shall be designated by the United States Attorney's Office for the District of Alaska, the names of which will be filed with the United States District Court for the District of Alaska in Case Number A04-003 CR (JWS). The TRUST PROTECTORS shall have responsibility for: (1) clarifying general policy and guidelines for distributions consistent with the purposes of the Plea Agreement and this Trust Agreement; (2) advising and providing guidance for the TRUSTEE; and (3) acting as an Appellate Board to hear appeals by beneficiaries regarding decisions of the TRUSTEE. Such responsibilities are not delegable to, transferable to, or exercisable by any other officials, other than successors appointed to replace designated TRUST PROTECTORS by the United States Attorney's Office, District of Alaska. 2 EFTA00176718 ARTICLE I APPLICATION OF FUND CORPUS AND INCOME AND POWER OF APPOINTMENT A. Distribution of the Trust Fund. The TRUSTEE may distribute all or part of the principal or income of the Trust Fund only for a qualified purpose, as set forth below, on behalf of the twelve (12) beneficiaries of the Trust Fund, whose names and identifying information will be filed under seal in Case No. A04-003 CR (JWS), and provided to the TRUSTEE and TRUST PROTECTORS. To the extent that any such beneficiary has not attained the age of 18, information pertaining to the guardian of such beneficiary is provided therewith. To the extent necessary herein, the beneficiaries of the Trust Fund will be identified by their corresponding number listed in the identifying document filed under seal in Case No. A04-003 CR (JWS) pursuant to this Trust Agreement. The TRUSTEE has an irrevocable power to direct distributions of all Trust Fund Principal and Income, pursuant to the guidelines established in this Trust Agreement and the Plea Agreement between BOEHM and the United States, or as directed by the TRUST PROTECTORS. The purposes of this Trust, as set forth 3 EFTA00176719 in the Plea Agreement and as expanded upon below, are to provide the beneficiaries numbered one (1) through eleven (11) with the following: 1. Drug treatment through a licensed / certified / accredited facility or practitioner; 2. Counseling through a licensed / certified / accredited facility or practitioner; 3. Treatment for physical injury through a licensed / certified / accredited facility or practitioner arising from the beneficiaries' involvement in the activity outlined in the Fourth Superseding Indictment. Payment for drug treatment or counseling that takes place outside Alaska, but within the United States, may include reasonable transportation expenses for the beneficiary and one guardian if the beneficiary is under the age of 18 years. In addition, this Trust provides for future educational or professional expenses for beneficiaries one (1) through eleven (11) and for beneficiary twelve (12). Such expenses include education or training from a recognized / licensed / certified / accredited institution, the goal of which is to lead to a trade or employment in a recognized profession. In addition, expenses for room and 4 EFTA00176720 reasonable living expenses are included in such expenses provided that: a beneficiary is maintaining a passing grade (a 2.0 grade point, or C average) in a course of study or training requiring at least twelve (12) hours per week, calculated based on the number of in-class hours spent in training or class. What constitutes other appropriate future educational or professional expenses shall be in the discretion of the TRUSTEE, under the guidance established by the TRUST PROTECTORS, and subject to the appeal procedures outlined below. Such other appropriate future educational or professional expenses may include books, course or training materials, and reasonable transportation costs. Such expenses shall not include the purchase of assets (such as motor vehicles) used for transportation purposes. The Trustee shall also make any other distribution to any party, whether or not a beneficiary of the Trust Fund, specifically ordered by the United States District Court for the District of Alaska under Case No. A04-003-01 CR (JWS) for the purposes of providing restitution in Case No. A04-003-01 CR (JWS). Any such distribution ordered by the United States District Court shall be deducted in equal amounts from the proportional shares of every beneficiary then eligible to receive distributions from the Trust Fund. 5 EFTA00176721 B. Apportionment of Trust Estate. The TRUSTEE shall hold the trust estate undivided and pay to or apply for the benefit of the beneficiaries all or so much of the net income or principal of the trust estate as the TRUSTEE, in the TRUSTEE's and TRUST PROTECTORS' discretion, deems advisable for the purposes set forth herein. To the extent possible, the TRUSTEE shall apportion the funds equally amongst the beneficiaries. Each beneficiary is limited to an equal share of one twelfth of the Trust Fund and any subsequent income, with such shares to be determined at the time the Trust Fund is funded. Additionally, to the extent possible, the TRUSTEE should pay any distributions directly to the provider of services (health providers, educational providers, or professional service providers) rather than directly to the beneficiaries. Other than such providers of services, the beneficiaries cannot assign or make available disbursements from the Trust to other third parties. C. Expenses Incurred Prior to the Creation of the Trust Fund. Expenses incurred by the beneficiaries or their guardians prior to the date of this agreement are "qualified purposes", as set forth above, and eligible for reimbursement provided that such expenses meet the requirements set forth in Article 1, Section A, points 1 - 3 above, and occurred after the beneficiary's 6 EFTA00176722 involvement in the crimes charged in the Fourth Superseding Indictment. The earliest date of each beneficiary's involvement is set forth in the separate document containing identification information of the beneficiaries, filed under seal in Case No. A04-003 CR (JWS), and are made available to the TRUSTEE and TRUST PROTECTORS. All such expenses that incurred prior to the date of this Agreement shall be deducted from the invested escrow account prior to the establishment of the Trust corpus, and before the proportional share of each beneficiary is determined. Accordingly, claims for pre-existing expenses must be submitted to the Court thirty (30) days from the date the Judgment as entered in the United States District Court for the District of Alaska under Case No. A04- 003-01 CR (JWS) against Josef Franz Boehm. Such expenses shall be paid by the invested escrow agent pursuant to court order. Furthermore, any restitution payable to any person or entity, whether or not a beneficiary of this Agreement, ordered by the United States District Court for the District of Alaska as part of the Judgment in Case No. A04-003-01 CR (JWS) pursuant to 18 U.S.C. §§ 1593, 3556, 3663, and 3663A, or any other provision of Title 18 or Title 21, shall also be deducted from the invested escrow account and paid the invested escrow agent pursuant to court order before the trust corpus is established. 7 EFTA00176723 Following thirty (30) days from Judgment in Case No. A04-003-01 CR (JWS) against Josef Franz Boehm the funds in the invested escrow account shall be transferred to the Trust Fund upon written direction from the United States Attorney's Office, District of Alaska and an attorney for Josef Franz Boehm as contemplated by the invested escrow instructions, attached hereto as Exhibit D. The Trust Fund and provisions herein shall become operable at such time such transfer is made. D. rower to Direct Distributions Not Delegable. The power to direct distributions provided herein to the TRUSTEE and TRUST PROTECTORS is not delegable to, transferable to, or exercisable by, any other officials, other than successors appointed to replace the designated TRUSTEE. Thus, the only distributions authorized under this Trust, other than to the TRUSTEE for fees, costs, expenses and taxes, if any, as set forth below, shall be pursuant to the terms of this Trust Agreement and to satisfy the purposes of the Plea Agreement. E. Documentation Required for Distributions. The TRUSTEE and/or the TRUST PROTECTORS have a duty and authority to inquire into or about the uses or purposes for requested distributions 8 EFTA00176724 of the Trust Fund by the beneficiaries and/or their guardians. The TRUSTEE and/or the TRUST PROTECTORS shall request documentation from each beneficiary or guardian requesting a distribution from the Trust Fund to ensure that such distribution is made in accordance with the purposes of this Trust Agreement and the Plea Agreement. Such documentation shall include, but is not limited to, the following: (1) The name, date of birth, and social security number of the Victim seeking the distribution; (2) Government issued picture identification documents establishing the Victim's identity; (3) Documentation that bears a date by month, day, and year that such expense was or will be incurred; (4) The purpose of the expenditure; (5) Specifies in words and/or numeral the amount of money sought to be disbursed; (6) A supporting statement of expenses from the entity to be paid (i.e., the doctor, counselor, treatment center, hospital, trade 9 EFTA00176725 school, college, university, or other provider) approved by the TRUSTEE or TRUST PROTECTORS; Such documentation required herein shall be addressed to the TRUSTEE at the following address: First National Bank Alaska Trust Department P.O. Box 100720 Anchorage, AK 99510 Any documentation so submitted must reference the "JOSEF FRANZ BOEHM IRREVOCABLE TRUST FUND". Upon receipt of such a request from a beneficiary or the guardian of a beneficary, the TRUSTEE and/or TRUST PROTECTORS, in their sole discretion, may request additional documentation to justify the distribution. The TRUSTEE has sole discretion, subject to the appeal rights discussed below, to approve, deny, or modify the request for the distribution so that it is consistent with the purpose of this Trust Agreement and the Plea Agreement. The TRUSTEE may consult with a member or members of the TRUST PROTECTORS before making any such determination. The TRUSTEE may make a prepayment of qualified 10 EFTA00176726 expenses (as set forth in Article I(A)), upon request of a beneficiary or guardian, upon the provider's statement of need. F. Appeal of Denied Distributions. In the event that a beneficiary is dissatisfied by the denial of a request to the TRUSTEE for payment of services requested by the beneficiary, the beneficiary may appeal, within thirty (30) days of the denial. Any such appeal shall be in writing and shall set forth specific reasons for beneficiary's belief that the requested payment should be allowed in accordance with the terms of this Trust Fund. The appeal shall be addressed to the TRUSTEE at the address set forth above (First National Bank Alaska / Trust Department / P.O. Box 100720 / Anchorage, AK 99510) and must reference the "JOSEF FRANZ BOEHM IRREVOCABLE TRUST FUND". The TRUSTEE shall review the appeal and forward the appeal to the TRUST PROTECTORS, who, by majority vote, shall determine all such appeal requests and provide direction and instruction to the TRUSTEE within a reasonable time after receiving any such appeal. Should the TRUST PROTECTORS decide that the requested distribution should be paid, the TRUST PROTECTORS shall complete a document that is substantially in the form of Exhibit C, annexed hereto, which must be signed by a majority of the 11 EFTA00176727 TRUST PROTECTORS. The TRUSTEE will then pay the requested distribution as directed by the TRUST PROTECTORS. G. Age Limits and Donations of Trust Fund Assets to Charity. Amounts of the Trust Fund remaining following any distributions pursuant to written directions shall continue to be held by the TRUSTEE and applied and distributed pursuant to future written directions. A beneficiary may seek distribution from the Trust Fund for qualified expenses incurred until such beneficiary attains the age of 26 years old. After such beneficiary attains the age of 26 years, any expenses incurred will cease to be qualified expenses. Thirty (30) days after such beneficiary attains the age of 26 years, such beneficiary's proportional remaining available share and distribution shall be held in a separate holding account until the end of the fiscal year of the Trust Fund. At such time, the TRUST PROTECTORS shall donate such funds to an appropriate charity chosen by a majority vote of the TRUST PROTECTORS and approved by the United States District Court for the District of Alaska under Case No. A04-003-01 CR (JWS) for any uses or purposes consistent with the Plea Agreement. Upon the death of any beneficiary before such beneficiary attains the age of 26 years, such beneficiary's proportional share of the Trust Fund shall be donated to an 12 EFTA00176728 appropriate charity as set forth above. If, by February 1, 2029, the Trust Fund has not been fully distributed, (regardless of the reason for such events), the TRUSTEE shall terminate the entire Trust Fund and both principal and income shall be distributed and shall be paid outright and free of trust to an appropriate charity approved by the United States District Court for the District of Alaska under Case No. A04-003-01 CR (JWS) for any uses or purposes consistent with the original purposes of this Trust, as approved by the TRUST PROTECTORS. H. TRUSTOR Retains No Authority Whatsoever and Trust Fund and Trust Agreement Irrevocable. TRUSTOR, his assignees, designees, or heirs shall have no authority to select a TRUSTEE or TRUST PROTECTOR or supervise the use and distribution of the Trust Fund. Nor shall TRUSTOR have the right to challenge the exercise of any power to direct distributions defined herein or distributions of Trust Fund assets by the TRUSTEE pursuant to such power. This Trust Agreement is irrevocable and TRUSTOR, his assignees, designees, or heirs retain no right whatsoever to alter, amend, revoke, or terminate this Trust Agreement, in whole or in part. TRUSTOR's sole right and responsibility is to create the Trust Fund by entering into this Trust Agreement and 13 EFTA00176729 funding the Trust Fund through the invested escrow account and created separately. The invested escrow account instructions are attached hereto as Exhibit D. I.
