This order GRANTS the United States' second motion to freeze Defendants' assets and appoint a receiver, ECF Doc. No. 414, filed June 22, 2018.

On November 23, 2015, the United States filed its complaint against Defendants, *1240seeking to enjoin Defendants from organizing, promoting, and selling the "solar energy scheme" that they have been promoting since on or before 2010.1 The United States also seeks disgorgement of Defendants' ill-gotten gains from the promotion of their abusive tax scheme.2

The United States previously moved for an order freezing the assets of Defendants Neldon Johnson, RaPower-3, and IAS's assets and for an order appointing a receiver on November 17, 2017.3 On March 2, 2018, the United States' motion was denied without prejudice in part because the United States relied upon the facts set forth in its motion for partial summary judgment including the "disputed material facts as to Defendants' knowledge at the time they made certain statements."4 The Motion for Partial Summary Judgement was also denied in that same order.5 Trial is now completed. The Court made extensive findings on the record at the end of trial;6 intends to enter detailed Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law including a disgorgement order; and has already entered an interim injunction based on summary findings7 and a preservation order.8 On the basis of the evidence adduced at trial, as laid out below, the United States' motion is granted.

I. Statement of Facts

1. Neldon Johnson is and has been the manager, and a direct and indirect owner of, RaPower-3, LLC, International Automated Systems, Inc. and LTB1, LLC (among other entities). He is the sole decision-maker for each entity.9

2. Johnson claims to have invented certain solar energy technology that involves solar thermal lenses placed in arrays on towers.10

3. In or around 2006 through 2008, Johnson directed IAS to erect, at most, 19 *1241towers on "the R & D Site" near Delta, Utah, in Millard County.11

4. Johnson also directed that IAS install solar lenses in those towers.12

5. To make money from this purported solar energy technology, Johnson decided to sell a component of the purported technology: the solar lenses.13

6. Johnson recognized that his strength was not in sales, so he directed that IAS use independent sales representatives to sell lenses.14

7. Johnson drafted some promotional materials to describe the arrangement, "IAUS Solar Unit Purchase Overview" and IAS "Solar Equipment Purchase."15

8. Johnson showed IAS salespeople these descriptive materials about the structure of the transaction, the purported technology, and the federal tax benefits that Johnson said a customer could lawfully claim when he bought a lens from IAS.16

9. He told IAS's initial salespeople what he understood the tax laws to mean.17

10. R. Gregory Shepard has been an IAS shareholder since the mid-1990s.18 He became one of IAS's initial salespeople in or around September 2005, and began selling solar lenses.19

11. Shepard's information about Johnson's purported solar energy technology came from Johnson or members of Johnson's family, and Shepard's own observations on his site visits over the years.20

12. Johnson told Shepard that a depreciation deduction and the solar energy tax credit are related to the sale of lenses.21

13. Johnson created, owns, and controls at least three entities that sell or have sold solar lenses: SOLCO I,22 XSun Energy,23 and RaPower-3, LLC.24 SOLCO I and XSun Energy are not defendants in this action.

14. Johnson created RaPower-3 in 2010. He is it manager and the sole decision-maker for the company.25

15. Once formed, RaPower-3, rather than IAS, sold solar lenses to individuals.26

*124216. RaPower-3's only business activity is selling solar lenses through a multi-level marketing (otherwise known as "network marketing") approach to increase sales.27

17. Selling lenses through RaPower-3 gave Johnson "much needed revenue" to continue his operations.28

18. Johnson directed RaPower-3 to create a site online (https://rapower3.net ) where a customer can access and sign a contract to buy lenses and sign other transaction documents that Johnson provides (described below).29

19. Among other things, Shepard created the website www.rapower3.com30 and moderates an online discussion board called "IAUS & RaPower[-]3 Forum."31

20. Shepard gets paid for his work with RaPower-3 through his company, Shepard Global.32

21. On the RaPower-3 website, Shepard describes the solar energy technology (including the solar lenses) and the transactions underpinning the solar energy scheme, promotes sales, and provides links to the website with the transaction documents.33 Shepard also uses the IAUS and RaPower-3 Forum and emails to communicate with RaPower-3 members and prospective members.34

22. Shepard also organizes groups of people to visit the R & D Site, the site where component parts of the purported solar technology system are manufactured (the "Manufacturing Facility"), and the site on a large field with a few semi-constructed component parts (the "Construction Site").35

23. Shepard directs customers to use tax return preparers who are part of the solar energy scheme, like John Howell in Wichita Falls, Texas; Kenneth Alexander in Florida; and Richard Jameson in St. George, Utah.36

24. From 2009 through 2016, RaPower-3 had received at least $25,874,066 from its role in the solar energy scheme.37

25. From 2008 through 2016, IAS has received at least $5,438,089 from its role in the solar energy scheme.38

*124326. From 2011 through 2016, XSun Energy has received at least $1,126,888 from its role in the solar energy scheme.39

27. From 2010 through 2016, SOLCO I has received at least $3,434,992 from its role in the solar energy scheme.40

28. From 2005 through February 28, 2018, all lens-selling entities have received at least $32,796,196.

29. Testimony at trial showed that the total sales price of lenses which appears to have been paid is at least $50,025,480.41

30. From 2008 through 2016, Shepard received $702,001 from his role in the solar energy scheme.42

31. While selling the solar lenses, Defendants told customers they could buy "lenses" and claim tax benefits.43

32. While they sold solar lenses and organized efforts to sell solar lenses, Defendants told their customers that if they bought a solar lens and signed the transaction documents Defendants provide, their customers were in the "trade or business" of "leasing" solar lenses.44

33. According to Defendants, because their customers are in the trade or business of leasing solar lenses, their customers are allowed to claim on their federal income tax returns a business tax deduction for depreciation on the solar lenses and a solar energy tax credit.45

34. Defendants told customers that IAS, RaPower-3, or LTB "placed in service" or "put into service" their solar lenses in the year that the customers purchased the lenses.46

35. Starting in 2010, RaPower-3 sold lenses for a price of $3,500 per lens.47

*1244Johnson determined the price that RaPower-3 would charge for the lenses.

36. Customers started purchasing lenses via the internet at rapower.net. On that site, a potential customer enters the number of lenses he wishes to purchase, and the website "figures" the amount the customer owes and the amount of the customer's down payment.48

37. The site also provides all transaction documents for customers to sign electronically: an Equipment Purchase Agreement, an Operations & Maintenance Agreement ("O & M"), and, at times in the past, a bonus contract.49

38. Customers do not negotiate the price of a lens, or other terms of the transactions Defendants promote.50

39. Over the years, Defendants told customers about Johnson's purported solar energy technology and the progress being made by Defendants.51 Defendants emphasized progress being made despite their knowledge that the system was not up and running.52

40. From the start, Defendants have told their customers that they can "zero out" their federal income tax liability by buying enough solar lenses and claiming both a depreciation deduction and solar energy tax credit for the lenses.53

41. Defendants knew that when they made statements to customers and prospective customers about the tax benefits and their purported solar lens leasing "trade or business," that the only way a customer has ever "made money" from buying a lens is from the tax benefits; no customer has earned money from rental income or income from a bonus contract.54

42. LTB, which by contract was to operate and maintain the solar energy project and specifically the lenses, has never *1245done anything; it has never had a bank account, any employees, or any revenue.55

43. Defendants told customers to expect income from the "lease" of their lenses, but Defendants know that no customer has been paid for the use of his or her lenses.56

44. Defendants' customers have been audited by the IRS for claiming the tax benefits Defendants promote.57

45. Based on the advice and information provided by attorneys or accountants they spoke with about the solar energy scheme, Defendants knew or had reason to know that the purported tax benefits were not permissible under the Internal Revenue Code.58

46. Defendants also knew or had reason to know that the purported tax benefits from their solar energy scheme were not permissible under the Internal Revenue Code because others also disagreed with their assertions about tax benefits available from the solar lenses, including: customers' or prospective customers' tax preparers/CPAs, the Internal Revenue Service, the Oregon Department of Revenue, the Oregon Tax Court Magistrate Division, and the Department of Justice.59

47. When a customer notifies Shepard that they are under audit, Shepard typically directs the customer to Enrolled Agents John Howell or Richard Jameson to represent the customer before the IRS.60 Howell and Jameson represent RaPower-3 customers using the same arguments that Defendants make.61

48. Shepard has also advocated for customers under audit before the IRS.62 He has given customers the arguments to make before the IRS and documents to submit while under audit.63

*124649. Johnson is paying the attorneys' fees for all customers whose tax benefits have been disallowed on appeal by the IRS and who have filed petitions in Tax Court.64

50. Defendants have caused serious harm to the United States Treasury as a result of their solar energy scheme.65 Defendants' customers claimed at least $14,207,517 of improper tax refunds as a result of Defendants' scheme for tax years 2013 through 2016.66

51. To date, Johnson, Shepard, IAS and RaPower-3 continue to organize sales of solar lenses, and participate (directly and indirectly) in the sale of solar lenses.67

52. They are not deterred from promoting the scheme, not by the IRS' disallowance of their audited customers' depreciation deductions and solar energy tax credits or by the complaint filed in this case or by the announced result in the case.68

II. The injunctive relief requested by the United States - in the form of an asset freeze and appointment of a receiver - is necessary or appropriate to enforce the Internal Revenue Laws.

Under 26 U.S.C. § 7402, this Court has the authority to impose an asset freeze and appoint a receiver to take control of Defendants IAS and RaPower-3's assets and business operations..69 Section 7402(a) encompasses a broad range of powers necessary to compel compliance with the tax laws.70 Courts have exercised *1247this broad authority under § 7402(a) in a variety of contexts, including ordering disgorgement of ill-gotten gains against a tax return preparer engaged in fraudulent return preparation,71 appointing receivers to assist in collection of federal tax liabilities or otherwise ensure compliance with the internal revenue laws,72 and freezing a defendant's assets.73 The statute alone provides sufficient authority to issue an injunctive order freezing Defendants' assets.

Examination of the typical factors in imposing equitable relief before final adjudication is not necessary but demonstrates the propriety - and necessity - of this action. In the Tenth Circuit, a party seeking a preliminary injunction must show 1) that there exists a substantial likelihood that the movant will prevail on the merits; 2) that the movant will suffer irreparable injury unless the injunction issues; 3) that the threatened injury to the movant outweighs whatever damage the proposed injunction may cause the opposing party; and 4) that the injunction would not be adverse to the public interest.74 The Court finds that while 26 U.S.C. § 7402(a) provides explicit authority for the relief requested, the United States, as the moving party, also meets its burden under the preliminary injunction standard for the relief requested.75

A. The United States has succeeded on the merits.

For injunctive relief to be warranted under § 7408, the United States must prove by a preponderance of the evidence that (1) Defendants organized an entity, plan, or arrangement; (2) Defendants made false or fraudulent statements concerning the tax benefits to be derived from the entity, plan or arrangement; (3) Defendants knew or had reason to know those statements were false or fraudulent; (4) the false or fraudulent statements pertained to a material matter; and (5) an injunction is necessary to prevent recurrence of this conduct. Alternatively, for injunctive relief to be warranted under § 7402, the United States must prove that an injunction is necessary or appropriate to enforce the internal revenue laws.76 As the Court has found, the United States has proven that it is entitled to an injunction under 26 U.S.C. §§ 7402 and/or 7408. The *1248evidence adduced at trial shows that Defendants organized the solar energy scheme;77 that Defendants made false or fraudulent statements about the tax benefits to be obtained from purchasing a solar lens;78 and that Defendants knew or had reason to know that their statements were false or fraudulent pertaining to a material matter,79 namely the tax benefits of depreciation and solar energy tax credits. Further, Defendants have testified that they have no intention of ceasing their activity related to and sales of solar lenses. An injunction is necessary to prevent recurrence of Defendants' conduct.

Disgorgement is also necessary or appropriate to enforce the internal revenue laws. Defendants profited from their scheme in the millions of dollars through money from the United States Treasury that was funneled through their customers. Defendants should not be permitted to retain their ill-gotten gains. The United States has shown that a reasonable approximation of their proceeds is at least $50,025,480. This Court has found that an injunction will issue and that disgorgement will be ordered. Thus, the United States has already succeeded on the merits.

B. The United States will suffer irreparable injury if an order granting the asset freeze and appointing a receiver is not issued.

The United States Treasury has already been greatly harmed by Defendants' scheme. Defendants continue to sell lenses to this day, and Defendants' customers continue to claim the tax benefits related to those lenses. If the injunctive relief requested is not granted, Defendants will have full unfettered access to the funds illicitly obtained to the detriment of the United States.80 Defendants' entire scheme was geared to "zero-out" a customer's tax liability. Defendants requested customers make a down payment for their solar lenses of $1,050 per lens. The customers paid this with a $105 "upfront fee" and were asked to pay the remaining *1249amount after they received their tax refunds.81 Defendants funded their entire scheme through funds that were "redirected" or diverted from the United States Treasury to their pockets though the money first went through the hands of their customers. The United States will not be able to recover all of the improper refunds paid to Defendants' customers. Defendants have been dissipating assets since they learned of the criminal investigation by the Internal Revenue Service no later than June of 201282 and throughout the course of this litigation.83 Defendants have moved assets into foreign jurisdictions84 and both Johnson85 and Shepard86 have taken steps to frustrate the collection of a potential disgorgement award. Without the relief requested, Defendants will continue in their attempt to frustrate the collection of any disgorgement this Court may award and thus irreparably injure the United States.

C. The balance of harm to the United States in not issuing the injunctive relief outweighs the harm to be caused to Defendants by issuing the requested relief.

In evaluating this factor, courts look to whether the freeze itself will cause such disruption of defendants' legitimate business affairs that the assets would be destroyed.87 Here, Defendants have no legitimate business. Defendants' solar energy scheme is an abusive tax scheme and not a legitimate business. Defendants do not operate the solar energy scheme - or any of the entities involved in the solar *1250energy scheme - in a businesslike manner. Defendants do not have any revenue or income aside from the sale of solar lenses. There is no harm to Defendants in prohibiting them from using ill-gotten gains to fund their technology experimentation and their personal expenses, including offshore arrangements that will be difficult to collect against. The United States however, and the taxpaying public, will continue to be harmed by the probable dissipation of Defendants' assets. The United States has a compelling interest in enforcing the tax laws and ensuring that persons promoting abusive tax schemes do not profit from their unlawful behavior.88 As such, the balance of harms weighs in favor of the United States and for relief to be granted.89

D. An injunction will benefit, not disserve, the public interest.

The public interest is served by issuing the injunctive relief requested by the United States. The public has an interest in enforcement of the tax laws.90 Taxpayers have an interest in being protected from suffering the results of other taxpayers improper tax benefits. Defendants' activities do a disservice to the taxpaying public, undermining confidence in the fair administration of the internal revenue laws, and have cost the United States' Treasury over $14 million. Defendants should not be permitted to profit from their illicit activities. The public interest is also served in ensuring that Defendants do not dissipate assets that can be used to satisfy any disgorgement award this Court may order or otherwise compensate those harmed by Defendants' abusive tax scheme.91

E. A receiver is necessary or appropriate to effect the asset freeze.

This Court has explicit statutory authority to appoint a receiver pursuant to 26 U.S.C. § 7402(a) as may be necessary or appropriate for the enforcement of the internal revenue laws.92 Second, the appointment of a receiver is authorized by the inherent equitable power of a federal court.93 The Court finds that the appointment *1251of a receiver is necessary and appropriate in this case. Defendants' solar energy tax scheme involves false or fraudulent statements and the possible dissipation of assets.94 Given Defendants' reluctance to cooperate in discovery regarding assets and ownership structure,95 a receiver is necessary to enforce the internal revenue laws and determine and corral the assets Defendants have, regardless of their location. This is appropriate to ensure that any disgorgement that may awarded will not be rendered meaningless.

The United States shall provide, within 30 days, the names of three possible receivers as well as a proposed order detailing the powers and responsibilities that the United States proposes the Court vest within the receiver. The Court may appoint from that list or otherwise. The proposed order should include all powers conferred upon a receiver under the provisions of 28 U.S.C. §§ 754, 959 and 1692, Fed. R. Civ. P. 66 and any additional equitable powers that the United States requests.

Unless otherwise ordered by the Court,96 the proposed order shall provide:

1. The Receiver shall have all powers, authorities, rights and privileges heretofore possessed by the owners, members, shareholders, officers, directors, managers and general and limited partners of IAS under applicable state and federal law, by the governing charters, bylaws, articles and/or agreements in addition to all powers and authority of a receiver at equity, and all powers conferred upon a receiver by the provisions of 28 U.S.C. §§ 754, 959 and 1692, Fed. R. Civ. P. 66 and this Court.

2. The Receiver shall have the following general powers and duties:

a) To use reasonable efforts to determine the nature, location and value of all property interests of the Receivership Defendants, including, but not limited to, monies, accounts, trusts, funds, securities, credits, stocks, bonds, effects, goods, chattels, intangible property, real property, lands, premises, leases, claims, rights and other assets, together with all rents, profits, dividends, interest or other income attributable thereto, of whatever kind, which the Receivership Defendants own, possess, have a beneficial interest in, or control directly or indirectly ("Receivership Property");

e) To take any action which, prior to the entry of this Order, could have been taken by the officers, directors, partners, managers, members, shareholders, trustees and agents of the Receivership Defendants;

f) To engage and employ persons in his/her discretion to assist him in carrying out his/her duties and responsibilities hereunder, including, but not limited to, accountants, attorneys, or forensic experts;

g) To take such action as necessary and appropriate for the preservation of Receivership Property or to prevent the dissipation or concealment of Receivership Property;

h) The Receiver is authorized to issue subpoenas for documents and testimony consistent with the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure;

i) To bring such legal actions based on law or equity in any state, federal, or foreign court as the Receiver deems necessary or appropriate in discharging his/her duties as Receiver;

j) To pursue, resist and defend all suits, actions, claims and demands which may now be pending or which may be brought by or asserted against the Receivership Estates; and,

k) To take such other action as may be approved by this Court.

3. The Receivership Defendants are directed to preserve and turn over to the Receiver forthwith all paper and electronic information of, and/or relating to, the Receivership Property; such information shall include but not be limited to books, records, documents, accounts and all other instruments and papers.

4. The Receivership Defendants and all persons receiving notice of this Order by personal service, facsimile or otherwise, are hereby restrained and enjoined from directly or indirectly taking any action or causing any action to be taken, without the express written agreement of the Receiver which would interfere with or prevent the Receiver from performing his/her duties.

5. The Receivership Defendants shall cooperate with and assist the Receiver in the performance of his/her duties.

6. The Receiver shall promptly notify the Court and counsel for the United States of any failure or apparent failure of any person or entity to comply in any way with the terms of this Order.

7. Until further Order of this Court, the Receiver shall not be required to post bond or give an undertaking of any type in connection with his/her fiduciary obligations in this matter.

8. The Receiver and his/her agents, acting within the scope of such agency ("Retained Personnel") are entitled to rely on all outstanding rules of law and Orders of this Court and shall not be liable to anyone for their own good faith compliance with any order, rule, law, judgment, or decree. In no event shall the Receiver or Retained Personnel be liable to anyone for *1253their good faith compliance with their duties and responsibilities as Receiver or Retained Personnel nor shall the Receiver or Retained Personnel be liable to anyone for actions taken or omitted by them except upon a finding by this Court that they acted or failed to act as a result of malfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence, or in reckless disregard of their duties.

9. This Court shall retain jurisdiction over any action filed against the Receiver or Retained Personnel based upon acts or omissions committed in their representative capacities.

10. Within 60 days from the entry of the order appointing the Receiver, the Receiver shall file and serve an accounting of the Receivership Estate, reflecting (to the best of the Receiver's knowledge) the existence, value, and location of all Receivership Property, and of the extent of liabilities, both those claimed to exist by others and those the Receiver believes to be legal obligations of the Receivership Estates. The Receiver shall also detail his/her efforts in locating Receivership Property and what, if any, additional efforts need to be undertaken to provide a full accounting of each Receivership Estate to this Court.

11. The Receiver's fees shall be paid by the Receivership Defendants or from the Receivership Estates upon approval of the Court, with prior notice and opportunity for the United States to respond to any fee application.

12. The Receiver shall distribute the estate to:

a. First Priority: The Internal Revenue Service, up to $14,207,517. This payment shall be paid in full before any distributions to the Second Priority claims.

b. Second Priority: The taxpayers who file claims with the Receiver with sufficient evidence of:

i. Their investment and all amounts received by payment or credit from Defendants including rental payments, bonus payments, salaries, distributions, and commissions and overrides or similar payments due to multilevel marketing; and

ii. The resolution of all the taxpayer's issues with the Internal Revenue Service.

Payments to claimants shall be made on a pro rata basis of the amount paid by the claimant to Defendants less all amounts received by the claimant from Defendants.

III. Order

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the United States' second motion97 to freeze the assets of Defendants RaPower-3, LLC, Neldon Johnson, International Automated Systems, Inc. and R. Gregory Shepard and to appoint a receiver is GRANTED and IT IS HEREBY ORDERED THAT:

1. This Court hereby takes exclusive jurisdiction and possession of the assets, of whatever kind and wherever situated, of the following Defendants: RaPower-3, LLC, Neldon Johnson, International Automated Systems, Inc. and R. Gregory Shepard (collectively, the "Receivership Defendants").

2. The United States shall provide within 30 days, the names of three possible receivers, with information regarding their qualifications, along with a proposed order of the specific powers and responsibilities that the Court should grant to the receiver in this case.

3. Except as otherwise provided herein, all assets of the Receivership Defendants are frozen until further order of this Court ("Receivership Property"). Accordingly, all persons and entities with direct *1254or indirect control over any Receivership Property, other than the Receiver, are hereby restrained and enjoined from directly or indirectly transferring, setting off, receiving, changing, selling, pledging, assigning, liquidating, or otherwise disposing of or withdrawing such Receivership Property. This freeze shall include, but not be limited to Receivership Property that is on deposit with financial institutions such as banks, brokerage firms and mutual funds, shares of stock, and any patents or other intangible property.

4. The Receivership Defendants, their agents, servants, employees, attorneys, and those persons in active concert or participation with them who receive actual notice of this Order by personal service, facsimile service, or otherwise, and each of them, shall hold and retain within their control, and otherwise prevent any withdrawal, transfer, pledge, encumbrance, assignment, dissipation, concealment, or other disposal of any assets, funds, or other properties (including money, real or personal property, securities, choses in action or property of any kind whatsoever) of the Receivership Defendants. This applies to assets held by Receivership Defendants or under their control, at any time after inception of this action, whether such assets were or are held in the name of any Receivership Defendant or for their direct or indirect beneficial interest wherever situated. The Receivership Defendants shall direct each of the financial or brokerage institutions, debtors, and bailees, or any other person or entity holding such assets, funds, or other properties of any Receivership Defendant to hold or retain within their control and prohibit the withdrawal, removal, transfer, or other disposal of any such assets, funds, or other properties.

5. The trustees, directors, officers, managers, employees, investment advisors, accountants, attorneys and other agents of the Receivership Defendants are restrained except as they may act in the ordinary course of business and shall not exercise their powers or take action inconsistent with this order.
