DECLARATION 0F ROI-HT SHARMA

Myy name is Rohit Shanna. My date of birth is March 14, 1973. My business address is
4100, Midway Road, Suite 2105, Carrollton, TX 75005, . I am over 18 years of
age, of sound mind,
and capable of making this declaration. I have never been convicted of a
felony or any crime
involving moral turpitude. I declare under penalty of perj ury that the following is true and correct.

I currently hold the position of


Engineering & Innovation Lead at Wiseman Innovations.
The following attached emails are true and correct.

l. This Wiseman case started when financial investigations


starting early March, 2020,
months before Sohail filed a lawsuit showed money trails of
money removed from United
States to Pakistan in a concerted manner
leading to Sohail’s family members, his two
brothers (Mohammad Junaid, Mohammad Waqas), Sohail’s sister—in-Iaw
(Maria Bibi) and
other accomplices Waleed Khalid and some individuals who were not connected to the
company. As Pakistan is under FATF Watchlist for money laundering, terrorist financial
and proliferation funding, the company has an
obligation to report to FINCEN (Financial
Crimes Network) in USA, the FIA (Federal Investigation
Agency) in the United. We also
found fake invoice made for Sohail’s Sister Nazneen N (a
google employee and a resident
of California) as well as saw a bank account where Sohail’s mother, a resident of United
States received funds as a co-owner of a salaried account of Mohammad
Waqas (a ghost
employee). As per Pakistan laws, salary accounts cannot be joint accounted. These
investigations and significant documentary evidence lead to concerns about concemed tax
evasion in the United States and money laundering activities. The
company reported the
above to IRS and also was in a process of reporting these serious
transgressions to FINCEN
in the United States. These were important as our main
corresponding bank in Pakistan,
Meezan has been cited and fined for money laundering and also cited
recently for terrorist
financing based on a security incident in Pulwama, India. Based on the evidence they had

Exhibit PAGE 1

A
seen, I believe our corresponding bank were about to report or have
already reported
suspicious money laundering activities to authorities in Pakistan.

2. Waleed Khalid, the former HR Manager created a fake


company for Tenant Improvement
in Pakistan, fronted by his real brother Ahmad
Khalid, and was at the centre of the fiaud.
During the investigations, the company found money trails back to Sohail’s two brothers
Mohammad Waqas, Mohammad Junaid and his sister-in-law Maria Bibi from the fake
entity.

3. We already suspected Sajid to have enabled an IT breach


earlier, however due to lack of
clear evidence, we were not able to investigate and
discipline. When the Premier breach
happened, I and Bilal Aslarn the CEO of Wisernan PK started tracing the breach. All roads
led to Sajid who was questioned in formal
settings. Sajid was reluctant to admit his
wrongdoing but agreed to be truthful. During these calls Sajid claimed that he was
inadvertently involved in money transactions with the accused in Pakistan and alluded to
money laundering activities by Junaid and Waleed Khalid (by placing black money into
legitimate systems). What raised our red flag was when Sajid informed me and Asad Ali
Abro, VP admin in Pakistan, that Sohail’s brother Mohammad Junaid maybe involved in
running illegal call centers. With this new information, the PI-H breach became very serious
as most of the [RS Scamsters originate from India and Pakistan. We were concerned
that
Sohail, his brother and others had possibly sold or planning to sell the PHI data to black
market for misuse.

4. Sohail has always been concerned about federal agencies


investigating him and his family
members. He also bragged to me in March, 2020 about how he
got his US Green Card by
fraud by outsmarting the USCIS and company processes. I have evidence to
prove how
Waleed Khalid worked in concert with Sohail Mohammad to cheat the Labor Certification
Process in the United States. Sohail and his son Mohammad Jee, a resident of Texas made
implicit threats to me while returning the laptop in Wiseman office in early July, 2020 and
threatened that if the investigation proceeds, they have long reach in US, Canada and
Pakistan and we will loose everything. These threats were of
implicit violence and other
actions and I reported it to the company. I was assured that I and
my family members in
Canada are safe in North America.

5. I deny ever threatening Sajid Fiaz or Waleed Khalid, had


very limited interaction with
Waleed Khalid and believe that Sohail and other accused in this case came to know
through
their sources that Wiseman is planning to report the violations to FINCEN,
USA, FIA
(Pakistan), USCIS and other federal authorities to protect the company from any criminal
or civil penalties. In addition, Sajid Fiaz had already volunteered a lot of
damning
information about illegal call centres and some funny business that Sohail’s brother was
involved in. This imminent reporting to authorities including the HIPAA violation and PHI
breach soon caused red flags for them as Sohail’s all fatnily members (two brothers in
Pakistan, two sisters in US, a sister-in—Iaw in Pakistan) and others have significant exposure

from this reporting. Sohail has made
multiple attempts to stop these investigations so far
which have failed so far.

Executed this 10"1 day of May, 2021 in Dallas County, Texas.
