Abstract
Cross correlations between observed and synthetic spectra are used to discover yet another satellite of BM Ori with the following characteristics: effective temperature Teff = 4000 K, radius R = 16R⊙, mass M = 1.8M⊙, spectral type K7 III, absolute bolometric stellar magnitude Mb = + 4m·0, axial rotation velocity V sini = 85 km/s, and relative luminosity 0.005 near the V band.
