I don't think mere negotiations, contingent upon getting a license for the actual transaction, would serve as a basis for a criminal violation. In the this case, a criminal charge may have been supported by the fact that the defendant allegedly was supplying technology intended for use in Iran, in addition to negotiating the deal in a manner intended to either evade controls or facilitate that third country manufacture.
