From: Jeffrey Epstein <[email protected]> To: Stephen Hanson Subject: Re: Fw: I just was informed... Date: Mon, 09 Dec 2013 12:38:30 +0000 Yes we have been good partners. I understand your being upset and thought our clean divorce was the way to go. you twice agreed , shook hands and hugged on our seperation only to twice re-neg on the deal only after we parted. You are also well aware that the cash basis number is larger than it would have been had not the 12 percent pref loan been put on the books . Its extremely stressful to have you . one hand constantly berate , acccuse , and attack both me personally and my capabilites while at the same time hay your legal team spend weeks to argue that I should not work for anyone else if and when we part. In addition as per my emails to you, I do not, did not and will not consent to Dan as CFO. ( as per our agreement section 9. ) I would have thought that you had wanted the best chance of a business success , so forcing your unreasonable choice of cfo on me, and the company is at best ,puzzling. I am availble to meet or speak . On Sun, Dec 8, 2013 at 8:44 PM, Fyi. Ill respond in the am.
