Business activities:

(see attached diagram “business activity of Mogilevich ”)

 

Mogilevich participate or influences the activities of the following companies:

 

1) “Arbat Inernational”:

In 1989, Mogilevich and Kulachenko established in Moscow, the Russian-British joint venture "Arbat International Inc.." Formerly known as cooperative "Arbat". It is an enterprise engaged in the manufacture of ice cream at the airport Vnukovo380.Founders of Arbat International were “Arigon Ltd “, the United Kingdom," Vnukovo koopereyshn "," Telsi 98 ". 381

 

2) “Arigon Ltd”*:

According to reports, "Arigon Ltd." is located in the Channel Islands and has offices in Budapest, Moscow, Kiev, Tel Aviv and Los Angeles.382

It is considered that "Arigon Ltd" was associated with "MS International" - located in Antwerp, a company created by Brandwein, NAYFILD and FANKINI, who probably worked for Ivankov.383

 

"Arigon" was actually a sales representative of "YBM" and thus directly involved in the sale of magnets, petroleum products and consumer goods. In 1996, "Arigon" was closed and replaced by a new company "UNITED Trade Limited" ("UNITED Trade"), also located in Budapest. "UNITED Trade" took over the "Arigon" within "YBM"; went to the same ex-employees "Arigon" Igor Fisherman and Anatoly Stura who held high positions in the Soviet military establishment.

*Note: In the course of the investigation conducted by the United States against "YBM" it was found that the company "Arigon" sold oil products amounting to 1000000 of "Phoenix Oil", based in Munich and owned by Igor LINCHITS, born December 18, 1963. After checking the accounts of the company held by the German authorities, it was suspected that LINCHITS was engaged laundering money through bogus commercial operations384.Besides LINCHITS sold the property in Canada to Olga Rodina, who was the Secretary of "Kanadien Oil and Gas Industries, Inc." The last company was named among other in the request sent by U.S. authorities in connection with an investigation against "YBM Magnex."385

 

3) “YBM Magnex International Inc.”:

According to Moscow NCB "YBM Magnex International" is controlled by Mogilevich. President of the "YBM Magneks International" was Jacob Gershevich Bogatin, a former Russian citizen, born August 13, 1947.386 According to open sources Igor Fisherman was a senior administrator of "YBM". Mogilevich, Bogatin and FISHERMAN founded the company and directed it, and some friends of Mogilevich were its investors.387

 

According to the NCB Washington "YBM MagneX" was registered in Alberta, Kanada on 16 March 1994 as "Pratex Technologies Inc. '. In late 1995, the name "Pratex" was changed to the present: "YBM International Inc. Magnex." ("YBM"). Registered Office of "YBM" is located in Calgary, Alberta, and its international center - in the U.S., in Newton, Pennsylvania. In its annual reports, press releases, brochures and promotional materials in the United States and Canada "YBM" claims that its main activity is the production of industrial magnets and their distribution around the world, including North America. In addition, the scope of the activities of "YBM" includes the purification of crude oil, production and marketing of products from the magnets and security systems for computers "KatchDisk." Branch of "Magneks RT", located in Budapest, Hungary, was engaged in the production of magnets, which then were sold through the other branch of "YBM" - "Arigon Company Limited" ("Arigon"), which is also located in Budapest.

In the period from August 1994 to May 14, 1998 Shares "YBM" exchanged at several Canadian stock exchanges, and by the variety of brokerage firms and individual investors, including in the United States. In August 1996 "YBM" submitted an application for the sale of its shares in the United States.

On May 13, 1998 by the decision of the Commission Ontario Securities at the Toronto Stock Exchange ceased operations with shares of "YBM". On August 17, 1998, the Commission on transactions stopped for indefinite period of time security transactions of "YBM" until "YBM" passes the audit. In particular, the Commission wondered whether the deals made between "YBM" and its customers were conscientious. Auditors of "YBM" also were not sure, in particular, of the reality of certain contracts of "YBM". In 1997 According to the auditors, these contracts could be fictitious and used as a cover for the transfer of money. Auditors said that "YBM", that they established possible links between individuals and organizations through which the "YBM" had affairs, and organized crimes. In the 1997 financial statements of "YBM" were not approved by auditors and were not accepted by Alberta exchange, Toronto, and other regulatory authorities, including the Commission on security transactions.

In August 1994, when the "YBM" started operations on the Stock Exchange of Alberta called "Prateks", its shares were worth 10 Canadian cents. By February 1998 the price reached 18.25 Canadian dollars (14.50 U.S. dollars). It was three months before the cancelation of share deals of "YBM" by regulators. Stock price rose more than 1,000%. By May 1998, when transactions with the shares of "YBM" were stopped, there were released about 44 million shares owned by individuals and organizations in Canada, the United States and abroad. Thus, the possible loss of bona fide of investors in this case exceeded $ 100 million.

May 13, 1998 regardless of the Canadian regulatory agencies to suspend operations with shares "YBM", U.S. law enforcement agencies, including the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the Internal Revenue Service, the Customs Service and the Immigration and Naturalization Service, got a search warrant at the center of "YBM "in Pennsylvania and made a seizure of documents of the company.

September 22, 1998 on the suit filed in Canada shareholders control over the "YBM" was transferred to the newly created board of directors. In December 1998, the Board of Directors pursed his resignation and the Canadian province of Alberta Court appointed manager responsible for disposal and preservation of property "YBM". The company is currently "YBM" this control is managed under the supervision of a Canadian court.

May 31, 1999 in the U.S. prosecutors Eastern District of Pennsylvania filed a lawsuit against "YBM" on charges of securities fraud and correspondence. According to prosecutors "YBM" and her unnamed accomplices carried out an elaborate scheme of fraud, artificially inflating the value of shares of "YBM" by creating visibility of the large volume of sales, higher revenue from the production and distribution worldwide of industrial magnets and other products. June 7, 1999 Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania found the company "YBM" guilty of artificially inflating the value of their shares. In this regard, the company was also accused of presenting misleading information to investors about their sales and earnings.388

"YBM Magnex" was blamed for money laundering and the criminal case was opened against this company in Austria.389

According to open sources Mogilevich reported that he sold nearly all shares of “YBM Magnex” in the end of 1996.390

According to open sources, "YBM Magneks" was associated with the British company "Benex," which is probably a front company of Mogilevich.391 "Benex" had nine accounts in "The Bank of New York" through which were transferred large sums of money. According to some reports Solntsevo and Mogilevich used "Benex" for money laundering.392

It is reported that in Hungary there was another company "Benex International", controlled by Mogilevich, not connected with the British company "Benex." However, the latter invited friends of Mogilevich. Moreover, Peter Berlin was probably one of the friends of Mikhailov. He also had a brother who worked for MIKHAILOV.393
