On January 14, 1998, Penny Ray, also

known as Lei Ping (Ray), was convicted

in the United States District Court for

the Northern District of California of

violating Section 38 of the Arms Export

Control Act (currently codified at 22

U.S.C.A. 2778 (1990 & Supp. 1998)) (the

AECA). Specifically, Ray was convicted

of knowingly and willfully exporting

and attempting to export defense

articles to the People’s Republic of

China without obtaining the required

export license from the Department of

State.

Section 11(h) of the Export

Administration Act of 1979, as amended

(currently codified at 50 U.S.C.A. app.

time of conviction may be revoked.

Pursuant to Sections 766.25 and

750.8(a) of the Regulations, upon

notification that a person has been

convicted of violating the AECA, the

Director, Office of Exporter Services, in

consultation with the Director, Office of

Export Enforcement, shall determine

whether to deny that person permission

to apply for or use any license,

including any License Exception, issued

pursuant to, or provided by, the Act or

the Regulations, and shall also

determine whether to revoke any license

previously issued to such a person.

Having received notice of Ray’s

conviction for violating the AECA, and

following consultations with the Acting

Director, Office of Export Enforcement,

I have decided to deny Ray permission

to apply for or use any license,

including any License Exception, issued

pursuant to, or provided by, the Act and

the Regulations, for a period of 10 years

from the date of her conviction. The 10-

year period ends on January 14, 2008. I

have also decided to revoke all licenses

issued pursuant to the Act in which Ray

had an interest at the time of her

conviction.

Accordingly, it is hereby ordered
