To: Jeffrey Epstein <[email protected] <mailto:[email protected]» <=iv dir="ltr"> =br> Transaction complete ! <=iv> When we had our meeting in your ho=e in Bedford. You asked me for my help. I told yo= multiple times that i thought it was a very bad idea, in that I pre=erred to have no financial interactions. I dont h=ve many friends and didnt want money to intereferAlexandersson managing your accounting , le=al, investments. reporting, trusts etc. When I told you in no =ncertain terms that I firmly believed she was incompetent you =dmonished me for " speaking out of both sides of my mouth ". =AO With regard Brad Wechsler , there is no " both sides. =quota. I have consistantly maintained since day one that he was high=y unsuited for the job. When you initially asked me to help convince=him to take the role , promising him a postion to manage mira=e investments I sent you a note saying instead you should =AO pay up and get first class people. I have reiterated <=span> With Brad out of the office and una=le to run his usual interference , the level of his total and =tter incompetence was brought clearly, front and center. =AO He may be a step up from Eileen, but, if he is, then it is=C2 certainly not by much, A major difference i= that Eileen knew she was over her head. Brad struts his stupiditly =henever he gets a chance. A critical ex=mple. - =span>Though you and I have spent many many hours discu=sing the =span>importance of care and attention to details and mechani=s. with regard Phaidon I was not shown one single docum=nt , not one.!! Brad wanted to keep it private between he, and=his so called " advisors " ho=ever as he was out of the office during the most important transaction of =he year, I did get to spend time with joslin=Joe and john, - the situation in your office is totally =udicrous - to summarize - the list I provided to Brad I=st Decemb=r - of things I thought were a priority to=get done - still remains in the whole unresolved.= The IT, is virtually untouched and is still in d=sperate need of a format - reporting flawed cumbersome and inaccurat= . all done by hand as one -off exercises , when either you or b=ad ask for it - airplane: re structure, (my only suggested priority=in =une ) is really ,no further ahead, consultants up th= kazoo but nothing at all done.( the office was told by Brad not to =hare the outside proposals with me - brad has no =dea even as to what questions to ask. he knows little of finance, is bulls=itted over by almost everyone in the office. a little man , us=ng your power, to appear larger . Eileen was self aware enough to know she=was over her head , that is a huge difference. bad info is ram=ant a simple EFTA_R1_01591572 EFTA02477543 emblematic example- 3 million in deductions=lm<=span> told were taken for art space =but on closer examination it turns out they cannot be used at all. (=ZERO benefit ) though you will be told yes they were deducted on the=return they said that is the only real question you were focus=d on ! " were they deducted " not -" is t=ere a benefit " !! I asked for the balance sheet a=d P and L for <=pan>Regan arts , a basic first step in order to =heck your financials. "sorry we never got one?" tho=gh 9.8 million invested, no p&I, nothing!, a construction=project run amok , no budget, the coo fired after only 3 month=. , no clue . fyi artspace finan=ials are also a total mess.

As in your words prob=bly your closest friend and in order to turn the page. I hope the followin= to be constructive Here is a list of th=ngs I think would be in your interest to get done asap .but de=initely not by me . i suggest you form ne= grats. , hire a high level tax =artner. use your trading accounts as they remain a =paramount requirement 16 months after i emailed you re their importa=ce. THe Phaidon transaction papered and =AO structured as contemplated DOES NOT WORK , its as simple as that. =DOES NOT !! I suggest again that you re-do =bank loans. no need to pay interest at higher rates on boat or plane= . as Richard is now no longer trustee. re- do will, =AO make apan>suydam executor , with Barry<Apan>, and john as back up. pay 1 million a year for executor r=le. get rid of Judy Black trust, deal with gifts an= their tax returns, . review amounts to kids at fixed ages. put more=protections in for Alex and Victoria. , =AO distribute some money to kids let them make decisions. , =AO decide art division with children in attendance . have fire=drill done on estate. fill out estate returns as if you and Debra di=d today, choose advisers - rick bronsteinHa=perin has a conflict that should be addressed.= A strategy of the use of art should be implemented. . you have =AO tax consultants it consultants. plane operation consultant.=. boat consultants. architects, lighting , art, legal, .=foundation , deal with TRA , BRH , rationalize investments. cash flow. report=ng, gaming disclosures. foreign, gift.. prepare tax projections for 15 an= 16, . deal with neg basis ( tufts gain, debt financed. art partnership, p=edges. sell stock, art, deal with phaidon de=t. =span>athene,? income , capital , foreign , exit= corporate, insurance regs, out and inbound issues, basis, =AO appropriate discount rates. ? terminations. control. , qual=fied dividends. corporate tolls, inversion rules. , grat issues, short swing and other sec disclosures= I still think you might consider a Rothshcild bank trans=ction they have 150 b and a distribution network with n= products , private bank Rockefeller Rothschild. financial service. =eal with UK visa issue sooner rather than later. we can talk about R=wen request re Athene , complex 2 billion in taxes on tr=nsaction. ?! the facts as i see them=br> in June and then again Sept, we both agreed to a 50% of phaido= payout., then only after weeks, wh=n you delayed any detailed discussion of money wanting to give the i=sue a thoughtful response ( which I fully understand ) . you u=ilaterally changed changed our agreement. . 5m would be reserv=d for the future ? . and out of the remaining 15m ,? i would receiveronly a third.

Phaidon<Apan> was not forthcoming ) in order to make my many cor=ections I was then told that Alans 2 EFTA_R1_01591573 EFTA02477544 in=olvement warranted a discount . Even in the best of ligh= , though it is beyond question that not one time in th= three years of his retainer has he ever proposed a uniqu= idea. (including any wayt to deal with the use issue o= debras death ,or even the most basic review of your largest =sset by far , the BRH agreement. ) O.K. - lets sa= he made a contribution to the plan and stretch reality beyond the p=le and say it was 50 %. though no one could posit such a large=amount unless they were wearing a brightly colored clown suit. , =AO the payment associated with the deal was known . It had bot= sent in writing and spoken about on the phone numerous times = a detailed execution plan was provided . then and only=then after all was laid out for the group I was told that after a nu=ber of conversations with brad karp that =AO a total of only 20m would be paid , (and even that was more than origin=lly contemplated ) for both transactions . Leon I feel It was=C2 remarkably unfair. I wondered whether brad even kn=w of our prior agreement.? I called him and he said he was nev=r told.?, I would ask that you I and Brad karp sit togeth=r if you think it would be helpful.. I would like to send him this =mail, with your consent of course. If the transactions were n=ver consummated , i would not be owed a dime, however , the expected=fee was known up front. , the detailed step by step plan was f=llowed and overseen by me, the amount that I had request=d before the transaction was even begun, and had already been =eavily discounted, out of friendship, from our agreement .
