NEW YORK Mitch Mosallem, the former executive vice president and director of graphic services at Grey Worldwide, was sentenced on Thursday morning in federal court here to serve 70 months in prison.

Furthermore, he will have to make restitution on $247,000 of $1.3 million in kickbacks he and others received from 1991 to 2000.

Mosallem pleaded guilty in April to conspiring with former salesmen at The Color Wheel, a New York-based print production house, to rig bids and overbill Grey clients such as Brown & Williamson on print work.
