`Re:
`
`United States v. Alain Kaloyeros, 16 Cr. 776 (VEC)
`
`Dear Judge Caproni:
`
`We represent Alain Kaloyeros in the above-referenced matter. Dr. Kaloyerosis presently
`required to self-surrender to the Bureau of Prisons on February 12, 2022 (sixty days from the
`issuance of the Second Circuit’s mandate). See ECF No. 953.! We write to respectfully request
`that Dr. Kaloyeros’ self-surrender date be adjourned by thirty days to March 14, 2022 in light ofa
`recent health concern facing Dr. Kaloyeros.* This is Dr. Kaloyeros’ first request for such an
`extension, and he will make no further requests. On February 2, 2022, we reached out to the
`Government concerning this request. After some discussion, on February 7, 2022, the Government
`indicated that it takes no position with respect to a request for a thirty-day extension so long as Dr.
`Kaloyeros agrees to not seek further adjournments. Moreover, the Government has stated that it
`believes the Bureau of Prisons can handle the medical situation described below and can provide
`a letter to that effect if requested by the Court.
`
`
`
`! While the Second Circuit deniedtheir request to stay the mandate, Dr. Kaloyeros and
`his co-defendants are currently seeking review of their convictions by the Supreme Court. Their
`petitions will be filed on or before March 1, 2022.
`
`2 We have contemporaneously filed a motion to seal this letter in light of the sensitive
`medical information that it contains throughout.
`
`
`
`Hon. Valerie E. Caproni

`
`As the Court is aware, Dr. Kaloyeros has been released on bond since his arrest and has
`scrupulously followed his conditions of release. Indeed, since being sentenced, Dr. Kaloyeros—
`who is now 66 years old—has co-authored and produced ten inventions and twelve scientific
`publications in his field of nanotechnology, mentored younger scientists, supervised research
`groups, and worked hard to make positive contributions to his community. A_thirty-day
`adjournment will pose no risk to the community and will allow Dr. Kaloyeros to get the care and
`monitoring he needs to avoid a potentially serious medical condition.
`
`Wethank the Court for its consideration of this request.
`
`Respectfully submitted,
`
