Subject: RE: Assistance Required in solving rejection points on KYC Case#01946825 [I] From: Bradley Gillin Date: Wed, 01 Aug 2011.1. 1W To: Vijay-A Sawant Cc: Stewart Oldfiel Classification: For internal use only Hi Vijay, See responses in blue below: Reason for Rejection:7/31 A — Please provide a recent document that will serve as address proof. The IRS document is from September, 2016. — Could you provide latest (July 18) bank statement for this entity? This should resolve this request. Attached B — Nature of Business: What do they do with the artwork? Do they purchase it and re-sell it? Does the trust only hold artwork as assets? — As per constitutional docs, the purpose of Prytanee LLC is for engaging in the acquisition, ownership & management of artwork for investment purposes. I had already updated this but it seems they want more info on re-selling part. Could you advise on this please? This is hysterical. Private Art collectors are constantly buying and selling art work. They do whatever they please with it...put it on the wall, loan it to museums, keep it in the shipping box it came in. Artwork and cash to purchase the artwork are the only assets. Please tell them to call me if they reject this... Still laughing C — Please check to see if there is a memo that was accompanied by Chip Packard's approval. If there is none, I recommend "refreshing" the approval with current senior management. The current e-mail approval does not address what exactly is being discussed and approved. — Kindly provide this please. Recent ExCo approval was obtained and attached. All alerts have been cleared. What do they need here — an updated ExCo approval? D — The address of employer for Caroline is missing. In addition, please include how long she has been with that company etc. — For Caroline, I have now updated Sotheby's Switzerland address & already updated that she was EFTA01437625 appointed there in 2012. Please advise if you have any additional points to add? Thank you. No. E — The "How Was the Client(s) Introduced? How long has the RM personally known the client?" field talks about Zorro Management. Please amend. — Updated as appropriate. Jeffrey Epstein met with Stew Oldfield on 3/7/17 to open new acct for other entity. This is in the introduction field. RM has known the client for 4 years F — New fields were added as part of Dbforce change last weekend. Please ensure those fields are filled out. — Please advise on the following additional points for this case, as appropriate: Icid:[email protected] High Risk Countries — NO Shares to 3rd parties — NO Bearer shares, controls — NO Structure complex — NO Prohibited — NO Regards, Brad fcid:[email protected] Bradley Gillin Vice President Deutsche Bank Wealth Management 345 Park Avenue, 24th Fl New York, NY 10154 Tel.

Call if you have questions. Thanks again. 2) The address on the LLC Agreement does not match the address in the LLC Agreement. Please provide proof of address. This makes no sense - LLC agreement do not always accurately reflect address as companies move. Address is: 6100 RED HOOK QUARTER, B3 ST. THOMAS 00802 UNITED STATES VIRGIN ISLANDS DB Statement is attached. CDD form in the case's attachments also reflects this. 6) Can you please locate the full e-mail chain that proves that Chip Packards approval actually refers to Epstein's jail sentence? The current e- mail attachment uploaded does not refer to what is actually being discussed. Exco approval, in attachments, from Patrick Campion, further supports. 8) Please provide SOW verification for Jeffrey Epstein. He is a Billionaire. Jeffery Epstein is a client at DB. Personal account balance = $4mn. Last KYC including Epstein approved case # 1898372 - 2/13/2018 EFTA01437633 9) Please complete SOW narrative for Caroline and provide SOW verification as well. The source of wealth for Caroline Lang derives from her employment as Chairman of Sotheby's Switzerland. Caroline Lang is internationally recognized for her in-depth knowledge of the art market and her longstanding expertise in Impressionist, Modern and Contemporary art. Appointed Chairman of the Swiss Department of Impressionist, Modern & Contemporary Art in 2012, this consummate polyglot has advised some of the most important collectors in Switzerland and worldwide. In November 2011, she played a decisive role in the New York sale of Abstraction-Figuration, an exceptional private collection of abstract works by Gerhard Richter and Max Ernst which realized a world auction record for a work by Richter at the time. Caroline Lang has also conducted major marathon auctions in Switzerland, the UK and Germany, including the historic week-long sales of works of art from Monrepos Castle in Ludwigsburg in 2000 and the Royal House of Hanover in 2005. Ms Lang also serves as an executive for Warner Brothers Inc,.Her annual income is approx. 450k. Sotheby's is one of the most prominent and well know art auction houses in the world. If she is the chairman, that should be verification. 10) The SOW narrative for Jeffrey Epstein seems a bit outdated. It still refers to the Financial Trust Company as the SOW Company. However, based on the consent of board of directors meeting from 2013, Financial Trust Company merged into Southern Financial LLC with Southern Financial LLC as the surviving entity. Please updated the SOW narrative and provide research etc for the new entity. Refer to Last KYC Approved case # 1898372 - 2/13/2018 Jeffrey Edward Epstein (born January 20, 1953) is an American financier and registered sex offender in the United States. He worked at Bear Stearns early in his career and then formed his own firm, J. Epstein & Co. In 2008, Epstein was convicted of soliciting an underage girl for prostitution, for which he served 13 months in prison. He lives in the US Virgin Islands. Epstein taught calculus and physics at the Dalton School in Manhattan from 1973 to 1975. Among his students was a son of Alan C. Greenberg, chairman of Bear Stearns. In 1976, Epstein started work as an options trader at Bear Stearns where he worked in the special products division, advising high-net-worth clients on tax strategies. Proving successful in his financial career, in EFTA01437634 1980 Epstein became a partner at Bear Stearns. In 1982, Epstein founded his own financial management firm, J. Epstein & Co., managing the assets of clients with more than $1 billion in net worth. In 1987, Leslie Wexner, founder and chairman of Ohio-based The Limited chain of women's clothing stores, became a well-known client. Wexner acquired Abercrombie & Fitch the following year. In 1992 he converted a private school on the Upper East Side into an enormous residence. Epstein later bought that property, in the wealthiest part of Manhattan. In 1996, Epstein changed the name of his firm to the Financial Trust Company and, for tax advantages, based it on the island of St. Thomas in the U.S. Virgin Islands. In 2003, Epstein bid to acquire New York magazine. Other bidders were advertising executive Donny Deutsch, investor Nelson Peltz, media mogul and publisher Mortimer Zuckerman, who had the New York Daily News, and film producer Harvey Weinstein. They were ultimately outbid by Bruce Wasserstein, a longtime Wall Street investor, who paid $55 million. In 2004, Epstein and Zuckerman committed up to $25 million to finance Radar a celebrity and pop culture magazine founded by Maer Roshan. Epstein and Zuckerman were equal partners in the venture. Roshan, as its editor-in-chief, retained a small ownership stake. Presently, Mr. Epstein founded Southern Trust Company Inc, a private consulting company that invests the assets of their clients and gets their revenue from the return of these investments. Southern Trust invests in different portfolios catered to their clients and makes their revenue based on the returns and the fees associated with managing their client's assets. 11) Please explain in detail what this account is being used for. What are the monthly expenses of the company? Deposit account related to art purchase. It couldn't be clearer in the current description: Jeffrey and Caroline share the same affinity for art and decided to become partners investing in artwork from up and coming artists together. They both invest equally in the purchases of the artwork. 13) Please provide COGS for Prytanee, LLC. Explain? EFTA01437635 17) Please provide proof of delivery for the FinCEN form. Please ensure it was e-mailed by the same person who signed the form (Jeffrey Epstein).

Some of these requests seem unreasonable, and AML should already have a lot of this info, particularly anything relating to Jeffrey Epstein personally (since we have so many accounts for him). As for Chip's email, it predates me. And the other people on the email are no longer at DB. So I don't see how I can get hold of the full email. But again, Jeffrey has been through a complete rep risk process here and has been signed off on repeatedly by management as we've done any KYC remediation or new account opening. EFTA01437637 Anyway, let's regroup next week so we can go back to AML with a comprehensive set of responses.
