The Columbus Zoo is the jewel of Delaware County. Upper management of the Columbus Zoo including but not limited to its CEO, CFO, and Director of Marketing hijacked the purse strings of the Columbus Zoo, colluding to conceal the nature of their spending or thievery which amounts to more than $2,290,000.00 of Columbus Zoo money on the following: a. Concert tickets ». Tickets to sporting events in the Columbus area and elsewhere ¢. Golf club memberships at Kinsale and Wedgewood 4. Trips to Germany, Hawaii, Great Wolf Lodge ¢. Clothing, sports equipment £ Meals, beverages, and alcohol g. Electronics hb. Fumiture i, Services j. Miscellaneous non-Zoo related items, e.g., ‘Tunes, SiriusXM k. Motor vehicles 1. Suites, loges and special seats at Nationwide Arena and the Schottenstein Center m. Entertainment tickets all for personal or family use. ‘To accomplish the theft, three key members of management, Defendants Stalf, Fingerhut, and Greg Bell, conspired to develop and execute a way to mask the personel spending so that they could live off Columbus Zoo money. When it came time to pay for the tickets, suites, loges or food, beverages and alcohol related to those events, it was agreed upon that coding would be used such as: tickets for board members and donors, meals for board members or donors, food and drinks for donors, food and drinks for board members, and one that Fingerhut liked the most, “promotional support.” By using these codes, reasons, or excuses for the charge on a Zoo-owned credit card or a Zoo Check Request form as a reason that the Zoo should cut a check to pay a bill, these officials were able to get past the accounting system and checks and balance system which the Zoo had in place so that they could steal in excess of $2,290,000.00. ‘The Zoo has/had a policy in Section 6.3 of its employee handbook which provided: “Purchasing Personal Items: Personal items cannot be charged to the Zoo. This is true regardless of whether or not the charges incurred are subsequently reimbursed back to the Zoo by employees.” 31This policy was grossly violated. To farther accomplish their scheme to defraud the Zoo, Greg Bell, Stalf, John Doe 1, and Fingerhut stole from the Zoo’s barter system. The Zoo had a barter account. The account was managed by barter management companies IMS and ITEX, each of which operate similarly. The Zoo “sells” or lists for exchange tickets to the Zoo, Zoombezi Bay, and the Safari Golf Course on the barter account and, in return, receives credit to spend at other vendors within the barter network. This arrangement has been in place for several decades. If a vendor such as an office supply company wanted to trade office supplies for Zoo tickets, such would occur. The Zoo’s credit balance increased significantly over the years since there were fewer reciprocal options for the Zoo to spend its credit. Stalf, Fingerhut, Bell and others stole Zoo assets or money from the Barter account to go to sporting events or on trips, i.e. Game 6 of the 2016 World Series, high end bicycles, party buses or a family vacation in Florida. To further the scheme to defraud, Fingerhut threatened a Zoo vendor, Business 1, with harm to it unless it paid him $10,000.00 in 2019 and $10,000 in 2020. For nearly a decade Fingerhut victimized Business 1 by exploiting Business 1's relationship with the Zoo for his personal benefit to pay for gift cards, vacations, expensive cigars and other items. Further, Fingerhut and Greg Bell, with the knowledge of Stalf, instructed Business 1 to falsify billing invoices to the Zoo so that the Zoo would pay for personal expenses of Fingerhut, Greg Bell, and Stalf including but not limited to a birthday party, entertainment, trips, tickets to sporting events and other expenses. To further accomplish their scheme to defraud, upper management treated Zoo cash, Zoo alcohol, Zoo beer, and Zoo assets as if he or they owned it. Once the Board of Directors of the Zoo ordered those in charge of operating the Zoo to cease purchasing tickets, seats, suites, and loges, Fingerhut had vendors receive a bill from Nationwide Arena, PromoWest or the Dublin Irish Festival and pay the bill themselves, then bill the zoo for the amount of the invoice from Nationwide Arena. PromoWest or the Dublin Irish Festival thereby hiding the true reason for the expenditure. To further the scheme to defraud and/or to further his stature with the Zoo and in the community, Stalf demanded favors, services or other benefits from Business 4, a z00 vendor. ‘THE ENTERPRISE This Enterprise is an association and/or organization and/or a group of persons and/or companies associated in fact, although not a legal entity, including but not limited to Tom Stalf (former CEO of the Zoo), Greg Bell (Former CFO of the Zoo), Peter Fingerhut, John Doe 1, Jane Doe 1, Jane Doe 2, John Doe 5, John Doe 6, Business 5, Grant Bell, and others known and not known all of whom are persons associated with the Enterprise (collectively, “Persons associated with the Enterprise” or “Persons”).

THE PLAN OF THE ENTERPRISE AND ITS HIERARCHY The plan of the Enterprise and its function was to steal money from the Zoo and/or to “shake down" vendor(s) or threaten directly or indirectly such vendor(s) so that the executives who ran the day to day operations of the Zoo could enrich themselves and to hide what they were doing using an elaborate scheme of deception and to continue to steal money and services. Enrichment occurred in many ways including but not limited to: sporting events, food and drink at sporting events, vacations, directly pocketing cash, and motor vehicles. Many benefited from this thievery, some unwittingly, including spouses, relatives and adult children of these men. The primary tool used to enrich themselves was the Credit Card Authorization or Usage form or the Check Authorization form used by the Zoo to pay its bills. Defendant Fingerhut had his 33expense reports approved by CFO Bell. CFO Bell had his expense reports approved by Defendant Stalf and Defendant Stalf had his expense reports approved by CFO Bell. The three conspired to create a system of abuse whereby the three men, minimally accompanied by John Doe 1, were successful in exercising control by deception of more than $2,290,000.00 in Zoo funds. CFO Bell signed most if not all of the authorization forms knowing that the forms were fraudulent. In some instances, not only was the reason for the expense false, the expense itself was false. When Zoo staff questioned questionable expenses, their questions were ignored. When Greg Bell attempted to follow the law and provide Stalf and Fingerhut with an income document, Bell’s job was threatened by Stalf. The Board of Directors was not aware of and did not endorse the conduct of Stalf, Bell, Fingerhut, or anyone else who may have broken the law in this Enterprise. In addition to the Credit Card Authorization or usage form and the Check Authorization form, members of this Enterprise stole the following, often times with the knowledge of one another: alcohol, beer, items offered for exchange on the Barter network such as high-end bicycles, Game 6 World Series tickets, cash, services such as satellite radio, patio furniture, clothing, golf clubs, a safe, an RV, vacations, barter items, party bus rides for birthdays and weddings and other items. In addition, Zoo funds were deceptively used for family vacations, trips to Germany, Florida and Hawaii, traveling to Oklahoma for an Ohio State vs. Oklahoma football game, and several questionable trips to Florida, Tennessee, Washington D.C., New York, and other places. Within the scope of the Enterprise and to further it affairs, Fingerhut, Stalf, Greg Bell, and John Doe 1 were aware of the contents of the Zoo employee policy handbook which in part in Section 6.3 provided that: “Purchasing Personal Items: Personal items cannot be charged to the Zoo. This is true regardless of whether or not the charges incurred are subsequently reimbursed back to the Zoo by employees.” Within the scope of this Enterprise and to further is affairs, Fingerhut, Stalf, Greg Bell, Grant Bell and John Doe 1 possessed or had access to credit cards which were in the name of the Zoo and for which expenses related to the Zoo could be purchased. Within the scope of this Enterprise and to further its affairs, Fingerhut used his Zoo-issued eredit card to make thousands of dollars of purchases of goods, items, or personal property at Kinsale Country Club and Scioto Reserve. Within the scope of this Enterprise and to further its affairs, members of the Fingerhut family also charged personal items to the Zoo-issued credit card possessed by Peter Fingerhut at either of these two golf courses, such as boxing classes, clothing, and alcohol. Within the scope of this Enterprise and to further its affairs, when complaints about Fingerhut and his family spending Zoo money at these country clubs were made to Stalf, Stalf ignored them.Within the scope of this Enterprise and to further its affairs, Tom Stalf and/or his family used his Zoo-issued credit card to make thousands of dollars of purchases of goods, items, or personal property at Kinsale Country Club and Scioto Reserve and use the credit at such clubs to supply food and beverages to friends of their children.

Within the scope of this Enterprise and to further its affairs, Greg Bell falsified credit card authorization forms or check authorization forms by placing false reasons for the expense on such form thereby masking or concealing the true expense so that that the Zoo would pay for Bell and his family’s personal entertainment, socialize, and further conduct his personal life. Within the scope of this Enterprise and to further its affairs, Fingerhut negotiated the leasing of a suite and a loge at Nationwide Arena knowing it would be for personal use for himself, Stalf, Greg Bell, John Doe 1, and their families. Within the scope of this Enterprise and to further its affairs, Fingerhut negotiated the leasing of a suite at the Schottenstein Center knowing it would be for personal use for himself, Stalf, Greg Bell, John Doe 1, and their families. Within the scope of this Enterprise and to further its affairs, Fingerhut, Stalf and Bell at one point in time signed the leases in question. Fingerhut specifically requested that the Zoo name not be placed on the suite or loge as is customary thereby concealing the fact that the Zoo, a non-profit 501(c)(3), leased a suite. Within the scope of this Enterprise and to further its affairs, Fingerbut used a falsified Credit Card Usage form or Check Authorization or Usage form to purchase tickets at Nationwide Arena, at the Schottenstein Center, at other venues in the Columbus area, to travel to Norman, Oklahoma for an Ohio State/Oklahoma football game, and to purchase alcohol, food, and beverages at Nationwide Arena, the Schottenstein Center, Huntington Park, and other entertainment venues in the Columbus area, as well as restaurants, bars and similar establishments in Ohio. 35Within the scope of this Enterprise and to further its affairs, Fingerhut, Greg Bell, and Stalf converted and spent more than $1,800,000.00 of Zoo money at Nationwide Arena, the Schottenstein Center, Huntington Park, and other similer venues over a period of time on personal expenses at hockey games, concerts, baseball games, basketball games, or other events at these venues. Within the scope of this Enterprise and to further its affairs, John Doe 1 and Stalf used Business 5 as a strawman to sell personal vehicles to the Zoo at a profit, concealing the fact that it was the Zoo buying their personal car(s). Within the scope of this Enterprise and to further its affairs, John Doe 1 purchased vehicles for the Zoo using Business 5°s name. Business 5 then sold such vehicles to the Zoo at a price determined by John Doe 1 and Greg Bell and at a profit for Business 5. Business 5/John Doe 5 on several occasions kicked money back from the sale of these vehicles to John Doe 1 or a member of his family. Within the scope of this Enterprise and to further its affairs, Stalf stole bottles of alcohol and beer ‘from the Zoo warehouse for parties at his personal residence several times a year over a 5 to 6- year period of time. Within the scope of this Enterprise and to further its affairs, Stalf, Greg Bell, and John Doe 1 used the Zoo barter system to enrich themselves by having the Zoo pay for items on the barter system for their own personal use such as World Series Tickets for Stalf, high-end bicycles for Stalf, limo rides for Stalf, limo rides for John Doe 1 or members of his family, personal items for Greg Bell and/or his family, and condos for a Florida vacation for Stalf and his family. Within the scope of this enterprise and to further its affairs, John Doe 1 and a member of his family started a family business run by John Doe 1 and a family member and, concealing the identity of ownership of this business, provided a service to the Zoo which was unnecessary. In addition, John Doe 1 overbilled the Zoo for the services he performed and used the Zoo credit card he possessed or had access to, to buy the goods and materials for this company to operate. Greg Bell was aware of this operation and permitted it to happen. Within the scope of this enterprise and to further its affairs, Stalf purchased an RV with Zoo moneys, having Greg Bell wire the funds to the seller under the pretense that the RV would be housed at the Wilds in Muskingum county and used at the Wilds when in fact Stalf converted the RV to his personal RV. Stalf used the RV to travel to Put-In-Bay for a weekend and other places. Within the scope of this enterprise and to further its affairs, Greg Bell and Stalf rented Zoo- owned real estate to family members at far less than the fair market value of the rental value of said property, and furthermore, the Zoo paid to remodel the property Stalf had his relatives live in and paid for the patio furniture for said property through the Barter system. Within the scope of this enterprise and to further its affairs, the Zoo paid for satelite radio for the personal vehicles of members of this Enterprise including family members and/or their spouses. 36Within the scope of this enterprise and to further its affairs, John Doe 4 paid Tom Stalf benefits including trips to sporting events on an airplane John Doe 4 leased and constructing a bam addition at a Joss to Business 4. Within the scope of this enterprise and to further its affairs, after John Doe 4 provided Stalf with benefits and agreed to and did provide more benefits to Stalf, Stalf awarded John Doe 4/ Business 4 with a $2,300,000.00 no bid contract. Within the scope of this Enterprise and to further its affairs, after the construction of several cabins at the Wilds, Stalf ordered Greg Bell to pay John Doe 4 the sum of $125,000.00 to pay for a change order with no supporting data, four months after the final payment was made on the contract for the full approved amount of the project and during a time when Business 4 was in financial trouble. Within the scope of this enterprise and to further its affairs, Stalf ordered Greg Bell to pay the suspicious change order mentioned above almost immediately after Zoo/Wilds staff began to question the alleged change order in violation of Zoo payment protocol. Within the scope of this Enterprise and to further its affairs, Fingerhut solicited in December of 2018 and in December of 2019, and received each time, $10,000.00 in cash from Business 1. Within the scope of this Enterprise and to further its affairs, Fingerhut advised Business 1 that unless it provided him with $10,000.00 in December of 2018 that the contract that Business 1 had with the Zoo would be put up for bid and a competitor of Business | could get the contract.

C, COMMON PURPOSE OF THE ENTERPRISE This Enterprise functioned as an ongoing organization with commonality of purpose or a guiding mechanism to direct the organization. From at least January 1, 2011, to August 1, 2021 the common purpose of the Enterprise regarding its ongoing illegal conduct was to steal money or covert money, property, or services owned by the Zoo, permanently depriving the Zoo of such property or services and to hide their conduct. Additionally, member(s) of the criminal 38Enterprise made false statements to investigators, i.e. Peter Fingerhut, investigating the activities of the enterprise and those within it in an attempt to cover up acts committed. As stated above, each Person Associated with the Enterprise performed separate acts on behalf of and in furtherance of the Enterprise. The persons associated with this Enterprise were members of other entities so they needed to act in a structured and in an organized manner to enable the overall organization to successfully complete these schemes. Likewise, this occurred with the knowledge and/or support of other Persons Associated with the Enterprise in order that this Enterprise, as an association in fact, could continue and thrive because of the activities of each of the persons of the Enterprise. This Enterprise functioned as a continuing unit with an ascertainable structure while it was engaging in the diverse forms of illegal activities. In doing so from the time stated herein, the Persons Associated with the Enterprise participated in and/or managed the affairs of the Enterprise as previously stated. As such, these persons provided continuity and structure to the Enterprise in order to accomplish its illegal purposes—the pattem of corrupt activity as set forth in this count. This Enterprise and the Persons Associated with the Enterprise were joined in purpose over a period of time, with various roles that were different, and with methods that changed in order to accomplish the main purpose of the Enterprise. ‘The structure of the organization, as an Enterprise in fact: Fingerhut negotiated contracts for the leasing of suites and loges purportedly on behalf of the Zoo but in reality, on behalf of himself, Greg Bell and Stalf. Greg Bell, Stalf, and Fingerhut signed off on the contracts at one point in time or another. Then each began their scheme to defraud the Zoo of money. Greg Bell as the CFO approved all payments and expenditures. Stalf as the CEO was aware that himself, Greg Bell, Fingerhut, and John Doe 1 were converting Zoo property to their own use, and he permitted it, Stalf found property he liked on the Barter network or elsewhere he then ordered Greg Bell to pay for it out of Zoo money despite the fact the property was for his personal or his family’s personal use, Stalf and Fingerhut solicited and receive benefits from Zoo Vendors to corrupt themselves. This Enterprise is comprised of the Persons Affiliated with the Enterprise, all of whom acted with the purpose described in this Indictment, and all of whom conducted their activities over a period of time for a common purpose. This Enterprise, as an informal association comprised of the Persons Associated with the Enterprise, functioned as a continuing unit, separate from the pattern of activity in which it engaged because one or more persons associated with this Enterprise performed legal acts as described herein. The non-exclusive list of lawful activities described herein occurred while this Enterprise functioned as a continuing unit and with an organization structure which engaged in diverse forms of illegal activities as stated in this Indictment. While the persons associated with the Enterprise may have performed, from time to time, some lawful acts as described above, while working for entities connected with the Enterprise, these Persons, however, also performed illegal acts as part of and in furtherance of this Enterprise, as stated in this Indictment. Based on the foregoing, this Enterprise existed separate and apart from 39
