Cc: Richard Kahn Subject: RE: Idea Jeffrey, I am confused as yesterday you asked me to email you my suggestions for how I recommend we proceed together, yet you seem quite unhappy that I've done what you've asked me to do. At this point I think it would be best if we discuss performance issues and the future in person at your earliest convenience, as emails are subject to misinterpretation and miscommunication. Best, Paul Paul Barrett Alpha Group Capital LLC 142 W 57th Street, 11th Floor, New York, NY 10019 (o)- (c) <mailto From: jeffrey E. <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, July 17, 2018 7:37 AM To: Paul Barrett ; Richard Kahn < Subject: Re: Idea EFTA_R1_01787009 EFTA02600148 Paul !! what is missing from this is a heart felt sincere apology. I am shocked. Im not sure if you understand , the wide gap between what you offered and what we received .

My estimates is that we could make $300K per year doing this (Alpha Group Capital via MS is currently our only syndicate conduit as they shut down Gratitude's access to the Institutional book). If this is something that you would like to do we should then review the existing positions and trim anything else you don't want. This will clear the decks with regards to future performance monitoring and prevent a repeat of performance attribution issues. We have 14 months remaining on our agreement. I think this could work well. We have always had a good relationship and I see no reason why that cannot continue under this framework.
