During my lifetime my Trustees shall dispose of the net income and principal of the trust property in such manner as I shall direct from time to time. In the absence of express written direction from me to the contrary, my Trustees other than myself are at all times authorized in their discretion to apply all or part of the income or principal for my benefit; to satisfy any of my obligations, including my obligations under the Separation Agreement; to make distributions to any one or more of my issue (a) for their support or (Li) to utilize gift tax exclusions and applicable credit amounts and/or to facilitate any gifts authorized to be made under any power of attorney granted by me. B. During my lifetime I shall have the power, acting alone, at any time and from time to time: 1. To amend or revoke this trust; 2. To appoint a Co-Trustee or Co-Trustees; 3. To remove any Trustee hereof; 4. To appoint a successor Trustee or Trustees; 5. To exercise any rights, options or privileges pertaining to any insurance policy payable to my Trustees. -2- EFTA01111058 The exercise of any such power shall be by written instrument specifically referring to this trust signed by me and deposited with my Trustees, either during my lifetime or within a reasonable time after my death, but any act properly performed by my Trustees before any such instrument has been deposited with them shall not be affected thereby. C. While I am serving as a Co-Trustee with another person, until the receipt by any other Trustee or Trustees then serving hereunder of a statement signed by me or by my duly authorized attorney-in-fact to the effect that this paragraph is no longer in effect, I, as a Trustee, shall have sole responsibility for all decisions as to the retention, disposition, investment, reinvestment or other administration of the assets held by the Trust. Any other Trustee or 'Trustees serving hereunder shall abide by such decisions and execute all documents which may be requited to effectuate them, including, without limitation, proxies, subscriptions and documents of sale, acquisition or exchange. If such other Trustee or Trustees shall fail to receive timely instructions from me as to any action which must be taken within a specified time period with respect to a particular matter, such other Trustee or Trustees may, but shall have no duty to take such action as he or they shall deem appropriate. Article II Payment of Taxes. Debts. Expenses and Bequests under my Will Disposition of Art Following My Death Following my death, my Trustees shall pay or apply such sum or sums from the principal of the trust property as my executor may request, in writing, for the satisfaction of legacies, my lawful debts, my legally binding charitable pledges, funeral expenses and expenses of administration of my estate and any death tax payable by reason of my death with respect to property held under this trust or with respect to property passing under my Will if such taxes are apportioned to my residuary estate. If my executor fails to request funds sufficient for the payment of taxes, debts, expenses and legacies, I direct my Trustees to make such payment or payments as may be necessary to make up such deficiency directly to the person or organization entitled to the same. To the extent possible, no part of any payment pursuant to the foregoing shall be made from funds or property which is exempt from any such taxes if such funds or property would thereby become subject to any such taxes. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or my Will, any such payments by my Trustees shall be made out of the residue of the trust property that would otherwise be disposed of under Article X hereof and shall not be made from or charged against any of the other assets passing to any other person hereunder. I recognize that such payments will reduce the charitable deduction allowable to my estate. -3- EFTA01111059 In addition, my Trustees shall satisfy all specific bequests under Articles FIRST, SECOND and THIRD of my Will of property that may have been transferred by me to the Trustees during my lifetime and that is held by my Trustees at the time of my death. Death taxes shall be apportioned to the persons who receive such specific bequests as provided in my Will.

This arrangement is intended to satisfy my obligation under Section 5A of the Separation Agreement to pay Marla the sum of $80,000 per year for Abigail's support and maintenance for a period ending on Abigail's Emancipation. D. Subject to Paragraph E hereof, each of the trusts under this Article is intended to qualify as a charitable remainder annuity trust within the meaning of Section 664(cl)(1) of the Code.

No additional contributions shall be made to any such trust after the initial contribution.

I have also entered into an agreement dated December 13, 2012 (the "Columbia Agreement") relating to the establishment and funding of The Mortimer B. Zuckerman Mind Brain Behavior Institute (the "MBZ Institute') at Columbia University ("Columbia'). The Columbia Agreement commits a specified amount of the funds remaining in each of the CRTs upon the termination of such CRTs for the funding of the M/3Z Institute.

B. It is my intention that the gift under this Article shall, to the maximum extent possible, qualify for the deduction under Section 2055 of the Code in computing the federal estate tax and any -12- EFTA01111068 state death tax payable with respect to my estate. The provisions of this instrument shall be construed so as to effectuate this intention. Article XI Trust for the Benefit of a Descendant of Ming My Trustees shall hold and dispose of any property retained or received by them for any descendant of mine (the "Beneficiary') as a separate trust for the benefit of the Beneficiary and such Beneficiary's issue upon the following terms: A. In the case of any separate trust held under this Article of which Abigail is the Beneficiary, and if the Separation Agreement is in effect at the time of my death, my Trustees shall pay so much of the net income and principal of the trust for Abigail as is required to be paid to or for the benefit of Abigail under the Separation Agreement, and no distribution of the income or principal of such trust shall be made to any beneficiary other than Abigail unless the health, education, maintenance and support of Abigail have been fully provided for. B. In the case of any trust held under this Article, my Trustees shall pay to or for the benefit of such one or more of the Beneficiary (including Abigail or Renee) or, subject to Paragraph A hereof, the Beneficiary's issue of any generation living from time to time so much of the net income and principal of the trust as my Trustees deem desirable for the health, education, maintenance and support of such person or persons, in my Trustees' discretion. In addition, the Disinterested Trustee of the trust may also make payments from the net income and principal of such trust to or for the benefit of such one or more of the Beneficiary or, subject to Paragraph A hereof, the Beneficiary's issue, at such times and in such amounts as the Disinterested Trustee deems desirable. Any undistributed income shall be added to the principal of the trust C. Upon the death of the Beneficiary, my Trustees shall dispose of the then remaining principal and undistributed income of the trust for the benefit of such Beneficiary in accordance with the Beneficiary's exercise of a Special Power of Appointment. To the extent the Beneficiary shall fail to exercise such power effectively, my Trustees shall allocate said principal and income by right of representation among the Beneficiary's then living issue or, in default of such issue, by right of representation among the then living issue of the nearest ancestor of such person who was either myself or a descendant of mine and who has issue then living. My Trustees shall use the property so allocated to any descendant of mine to create or add to a trust for the benefit of such person under this Article. If no descendant of mine is then living, my Trustees shall dispose of said principal and -13- EFTA01111069 income in accordance with the provisions of Article X hereof. D. Without limiting the discretion my Trustees would otherwise have, my Trustees may transfer or distribute any portion of the net income and principal of the trust for the primary benefit of the Beneficiary under this Article to any other trust created by me for the primary benefit of the Beneficiary, or may merge the trust for the primary benefit of the Beneficiary under this Article with any other trust created by me during my lifetime or upon my death and determine under which instrument such continuing trust will be held; provided, however, that such other trust has substantially similar terms and the same Beneficiary or beneficiaries, provided further that if the ultimate remainder provisions of such mists are not identical, the trustees of the resulting merged trust shall keep a record of the initial proportions of the trusts so merged so that if such ultimate remainders become operative, the remaining principal of the resulting merged trust shall pass proportionately according to the original governing provisions of the trusts so merged. If the duration of two trusts that are merged pursuant to this Paragraph is measured or limited by a provision referring to the death of the survivor of a group of individuals, such provisions shall be considered substantially similar even if the groups include different individuals, as long all members of one group are included in the other. If such trusts are merged, the duration of the merged trust shall be measured or limited by the group that has fewer members. E. With respect to any trust held under this Article for the benefit of a child of mine who is a minor at the time of my death, after first satisfying the provisions of Paragraph A hereof with respect to such trust, my Trustees may distribute to the guardian or guardians of such minor child, other than Marla Prather if she is then acting as guardian of such minor child, for the guardian's own use, such sum or sums as my Trustees in their discretion deem appropriate to relieve the financial burden on such guardian and his or her family resulting from such minor child's presence in the guardian's household. For example, my Trustees may distribute funds to such guardian to provide additional domestic help, enlarge such guardian's home or purchase a new home, to the extent necessary to provide a suitable living arrangement for my minor child and to ensure that such guardian will not personally bear any additional cost as a result of his or her care for my minor child. In the exercise of such discretion, my Trustees shall take into account the size of such trust, the needs and age of such minor child, and the financial resources of the guardian to the extent known to my Trustees. No Trustee who is simultaneously acting as guardian of such child shall participate in decisions regarding any distribution pursuant to this Paragraph E to himself or herself or for his or het -14- EFTA01111070 benefit as guardian of such child. In addition, my Trustees may distribute to any nanny or other person who is determined by my Trustees to serve a quasi-parental role in such minor child's life (other than Marla) such amounts as my Trustees determine to be appropriate to provide for costs of care provided to the child so that such person may maintain a close relationship with such child. Article XII Trust for the Benefit of a Descendant of a Niece or Nephew of Mine My Trustees shall hold and dispose of any property retained or received by them for the benefit of the issue of a niece or nephew of mine as follows: A.
