I'm forwarding this to you as he had already sent this draft to Noam and Valeria, essentially as we were speaking. Adding a few additional comments, That's merely a drafting gremlin from using a format from an earlier project. I am also attaching a PDF copy of the revenue and expense project that we did for 2015 & part of 2016. I do see that there is a line item called "Marine Expenses". I didn't recall that detail when you asked me about it. Those categories EFTA00914401 came from payee descriptions on checks (or credit card categories). This was last updated in the fall of 2016, and we didn't get any questions or feedback after that. This is probably a stretch, but note that there is also a line item called moving expenses. Perhaps "marine" was a misinterpretation for "moving". Or ? I will ask Matt to dig deeper into the details that supported this summary page. Thanks, Nick From: Matthew Mazotas Sent: Monday, January 8, 2018 3:08 PM To: Nick Nichols .c.. >; Noam Chomsky Cc: Valeria Chomsky < Subject: RE: financial statement Hi Noam and Valeria, Attached please find a first draft of the requested statements. Please be aware that these are based on information that we have and are not complete. Various items on the balance sheet are outdated because they are based on the latest statements we have, usually from 2016. Please look over the items, gather the most recent bank, credit card, or investment statements, and send them to us so we can give you a more up to date balance sheet. For the income statement, we used the amounts we had from your 2016 tax return. The 2017 amounts are based on items we gathered during the start of planning for the yearend, and could have changed by this point. All items are based on the tax return and does not take into account personal expenses that are not tax deductible. Please give us an idea of personal items and expenses so we can add them to the statement. Please let me know if you have any questions.

We can do a first draft to share with you and then tweak based on your additional inputs. Also, we need to get your Arizona mailing address. I suspect that you will be happy to be there tomorrow since we're due to get a foot of snow! < < >; Matthew Mazotas Thanks, Nick From: Noam Chomsky [mailto Sent: Wednesday, January 3, 2018 10:27 AM To: Nick Nichols Cc: Valeria Chomsky Subject: financial statement Could you please send us a current financial statement; a balance sheet for 2017 and a rough income statement for 2016 and 2017. Just for us, not to be shared with anyone else. Thanks. Noam EFTA00914403
