Order Denying Export Privileges 

On October 3, 2016, in the U.S. 

District Court for the Northern District

(‘‘Hussain’’) was convicted of violating 

the International Emergency Economic 

Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1701, et seq. 

(2012)) (‘‘IEEPA’’). Specifically, Hussain 

knowingly and willfully conspired to 

export and caused the export of 

numerous types of goods, including, 

inter alia, optical and telescopic 

equipment and several sets of gas 

turbine mobile generators, from the 

United States to Iran, without having 

obtained the required U.S. Government 

authorization. Hussain was sentenced to 

15 months in prison, with credit for 

time served, and a special assessment of 

$100. 

Section 766.25 of the Export 

Administration Regulations (‘‘EAR’’ or 

‘‘Regulations’’) 1 provides, in pertinent 

part, that ‘‘[t]he Director of the Office of 

Exporter Services, in consultation with 

the Director of the Office of Export

addition, Section 750.8 of the 

Regulations states that the Bureau of 

Industry and Security’s Office of 

Exporter Services may revoke any 

Bureau of Industry and Security (‘‘BIS’’) 

licenses previously issued pursuant to 

the Export Administration Act (‘‘EAA’’ 

or ‘‘the Act’’), or pursuant to the 

Regulations, in which the person had an 

interest at the time of his/her 

conviction. 

BIS has received notice of Hussain’s 

conviction for violating the IEEPA, and 

has provided notice and an opportunity 

for Hussain to make a written 

submission to BIS, as provided in 

Section 766.25 of the Regulations. BIS 

has not received a submission from 

Hussain. 

Based upon my review and 

consultations with BIS’s Office of 

Export Enforcement, including its 

Director, and the facts available to BIS, 

I have decided to deny Hussain’s export 

privileges under the Regulations for a 

period of 10 years from the date of

Section 766.25 of the Export 

Administration Regulations (‘‘EAR’’ or 

‘‘Regulations’’) 1 provides, in pertinent 

part, that ‘‘[t]he Director of the Office of 

Exporter Services, in consultation with 

the Director of the Office of Export

(50 U.S.C. 783(b)), or section 38 of the 

Arms Export Control Act (22 U.S.C. 

2778).’’ 15 CFR 766.25(a); see also 

Section 11(h) of the EAA, 50 U.S.C. 

4610(h). The denial of export privileges 

under this provision may be for a period 

of up to ten (10) years from the date of 

the conviction. 15 CFR 766.25(d); see 

also 50 U.S.C. 4610(h). In addition, 

Section 750.8 of the Regulations states 

that the Bureau of Industry and Security 

(‘‘BIS’’)’s Office of Exporter Services 

may revoke any BIS licenses previously 

issued pursuant to the EAA or the 

Regulations in which the person had an 

interest at the time of his/her 

conviction. 

BIS received notice of Henry’s 

conviction for violating Section 38 of 

the AECA, and has provided notice and 

an opportunity for Henry to make a 

written submission to BIS, as provided 

in Section 766.25 of the Regulations. 

BIS has not received a submission from 

Henry. Based upon my review and 

consultations with BIS’s Office of 

Export Enforcement, including its 

Director, and the facts available to BIS, 

I have decided to deny Henry’s export 

privileges under the Regulations for a 

period of ten (10) years from the date of 

Henry’s conviction. I have also decided 

to revoke all licenses issued pursuant to 

the Act or Regulations in which Henry 

had an interest at the time of his 

conviction. 

B. Denial of Export Privileges of Related 

Person Dahua Electronics Corporation, 

a/k/a Bao An Corporation 

Section 766.25(h) of the Regulations 

provides that the Director of BIS’s Office 

of Exporter Services, in consultation 

with the Director of BIS’s Office of 

Export Enforcement, may take action in 

accordance with Section 766.23 of the 

Regulations to make applicable to 

related persons a denial order that is 

being sought or has issued under 

Section 766.25. Section 766.23 provides, 

in turn, that in order to prevent evasion 

of a denial order issued pursuant to Part 

766 of the Regulations, including 

pursuant to Section 766.25, the denial 

order made be made applicable not only 

to the respondent, but also to other 

persons related to the respondent by 

ownership, control, position of 

responsibility, affiliation, or other 

connection in the conduct of trade or 

business. 

As provided in Section 766.23, BIS 

gave notice to Dahua Electronics 

Corporation a/k/a Bao An Corporation 

(‘‘Dahua’’) that it intended to deny Mark 

Henry’s export privileges pursuant to 

Section 766.25 for a period of up to ten 

(10) years from the date of his 

conviction and intended to make that 

denial order applicable to Dahua 

pursuant to Sections 766.25 and 

766.23.2 BIS also provided notice that it 

has reason to believe that Dahua is 

related to Henry as set forth in Section 

766.23, that is, by ownership, control, 

position of responsibility, affiliation, or 

other connection in the conduct of trade 

or business, and reason to believe that 

naming Dahua as a person related to 

Henry would be necessary to prevent 

evasion of a denial order imposed 

against Henry. BIS gave Dahua an 

opportunity to oppose its addition as a 

related party by informing Dahua that it 

could make a written submission 

describing why Dahua is not related to 

Henry or why a denial order against 

Henry should not be applied to Dahua. 

Having received no submission from 

or on behalf of Dahua, I have decided, 

following consultations with BIS’s 

Office of Export Enforcement, including 

its Director, to name Dahua as a Related 

Person and make this Denial Order 

applicable to Dahua, thereby denying its 

export privileges for ten (10) years from 

the date of Henry’s conviction, that is, 

until November 19, 2025. I have also 

decided to revoke all licenses issued 

pursuant to the Act or Regulations in 

which Dahua had an interest at the time 

of Henry’s conviction.
