Re:
Janusz Banasiak
Dear Mr. Salnick:
I am writing to clarify the ground rules for the interview with your client, Janusz
Banasiak ("your client"), to occur today, February 2, 2007.
As I mentioned earlier, Mr. Banasiak is not a target of this investigation. However,
to address your concern about criminal exposure, if your client complies with every provision
of this agreement, then the United States Attorney's Office for the Southern District of
Florida ("this Office") will treat all statements made by your client during said debriefing as
statements made pursuant to Rule 11(f) of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure. This is
not a grant of immunity, which can be given only with approval of the Justice Department,
but protects your client from having the statements made by him during the interview from
being used against him directly. To guard against any misunderstandings concerning the
debriefing of your client, this letter sets forth the terms of this agreement.
Your client agrees to be fully interviewed, that is, to provide information concerning
your client's knowledge of, and participation in criminal activity, including but not limited
to the procurement ofprostitutes. The protection of this letter applies to a debriefing that will
be conducted by this Office, Special Agents of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and any
other law enforcement agency this Office may require. This agreement pertains only to the
debriefing made on the date stated in the previous paragraph and to no other events.
Thus, under this agreement, no information disclosed by your client during the
interview will be offered in evidence against your client in any criminal or civil proceeding,

provided that your client complies with this agreement and that the information your client
furnishes is truthful, complete, and accurate. If, however, this Office determines that your
client has intentionally given materially false, incomplete, inaccurate, or misleading
information, then this Office may use such information in any matter or proceeding and your
client is subject to prosecution for perjury, obstruction ofjustice, and making false statements
to government agencies. Any such prosecution may be based upon information provided by
your client during the course of the interview, and such information, including your client's
statements, will be admissible against your client in any grand jury or other proceeding.
The government also may use statements made by your client in any debriefing and
all evidence derived directly or indirectly therefrom for the purpose of impeachment or
cross-examination if he testifies at any trial or hearing, and/or in any rebuttal case against
your client in a criminal trial in which he is a defendant or a witness. This provision is
necessary to ensure that your client does not make or offer any false representation or
statement in any proceeding or to a government agency or commit perjury during any
testimony.
Your client further agrees that attorneys for the United States may be present at the
debriefing, and agrees not to seek disqualification of any such government attorney from any
proceeding or trial because of their participation at the debriefing.
The entire agreement between the United States and your client is set forth in this
letter. No additional promises, agreements, or conditions have been entered into and none
will be entered into unless in writing and signed by all parties.
If the foregoing accurately reflects the understanding and agreement between this
Office and your client, it is requested that you and your client execute this letter as provided
below.

Sincerely,
R. Alexander Acosta

Re:
Federal Grand Jury Subpoena
Dear Michael:
I am in receipt of your letter regarding Janusz Banasiak. As I mentioned earlier, Mr.
Banasiak is not a target of the grand jury investigation and he has been subpoenaed solely
as a witness. During our last conversation, you stated that Mr. Banasiak would be willing
to speak with investigators pursuant to a Kastigar letter. Please let me know if that is the
case and, if so, when you and Mr. Banasiak are available.
My office would rightly question why I would ask for immunity for a person who I
feel faces no criminal exposure, so, if that remains your position, I would like to discuss the
matter further.
I look forward to your response.
Sincerely,
R. Alexander Acosta
United States Attorney
