BUTTERFLY TRUST
SELECTION OF LOCATION OF TRUST ADMINSTRATION
Pursuant to Article Eighth, Paragraph A, Subparagraph 15 of that certain
Trust Agreement, dated December 27, 2006 (the "Trust Agreement"), between
JEFFREY E. EPSTEIN, as Grantor (the "Grantor"), and DARREN K. INDYKE and
RICHARD KAHN, as Trustees, of Butterfly Trust (the "Trust"), the acting
trustees of
the Trust are authorized and empowered, in their discretion, to cause the
assets of
the Trust to be administered in such locations as they shall select.
HARRY I. BELLER and ERIKA A. KELLERHALS, are the current acting trustees
of the Trust (the "Trustees").
The Trustees desire that the Trust shall be a U.S. domestic trust as defined
in
Title 26 section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code by virtue of
meeting both
the control and the court tests set forth in Treas. Reg. Section 301.7701-7.
As provided in Treas. Reg. section 301.7701-7(c)(4)(D), if both a United
States court and a foreign court are able to exercise primary supervision
over the
administration of the trust, the trust meets the court test.
NOW, THEREFORE, pursuant to Article Eighth, Paragraph A, Subparagraph
15 of the Trust Agreement, the Trustees do hereby declare that all of the
assets of
the Trust shall be administered in Delaware and the United States Virgin
Islands
and, in furtherance thereof, that the courts of the State of Delaware and
the U.S.
Virgin Islands each shall have primary supervision over the administration
of the
Trust, with the intent that the Trust shall be a U.S. domestic trust as
defined in Title
26 section 7701(a)(30) of the Code by virtue of meeting the court and
control test.
