In 1974, DHL hired Peter J. Donnici (Donnici), a lawyer and law professor, to represent DHL in the CAB matter.About that time, Hillblom asked Donnici to establish a law office in Donnici's name and to continue to represent DHL.L.Patrick Lupo (Lupo), a law student of Donnici's, was employed to assist in the CAB litigation.
...
A few years later, Donnici and Lupo formed a law partnership that eventually became known as Donnici, Kerwin & Donnici.
...
Donnici became Hillblom's business and general legal adviser and consultant on major business decisions.Donnici and Hillblom were also personal friends.DHL, and at one point DHLI, paid expenses of the Donnici law firm, including rent, overhead, and all salaries.
In the early 1980's, Donnici received DHL shares for his past work for DHL, a third of which he gave to Lupo for work he had done.Donnici was also a director of DHL from the early 1980's until the early 1990's.While a director of DHL, Donnici received a retainer from DHLI in the amount of $48,000 per year.After the transfer of DHLI stock to Po Chung and nominees, DHLI was used for foreign operations and DHL for domestic.DHL Operations B.V. (Ops B.V.) was incorporated in the Netherlands on August 13, 1979, as a wholly owned subsidiary of DHLI.
...
At the behest of the DHL shareholders, Schwartz, Donnici, Lupo, and Charles Lane (Schwartz's law partner) held equal shares of the stock of Bedford Management Group, Inc.

According to the DHLI/MNV shareholders' agreement, Donnici, Lupo, and Schwartz were to receive $8,437,500, $8,437,500 and $2,953,125, respectively, from the proceeds of the 1990 and 1992 transactions.
