I spoke with them last week and they said that they were working hard on getting it sold, but had no updates. I told Leon this and he met with Jeffrey right after I spoke with him, so I believe he and Jeffrey discussed it. I'll be asking Gagosian for an update again tomorrow (the gallery is closed today) and will let you know what they say. I also asked Leon again about the Braque and he said he would discuss it with Jeffrey. Attached and below is information about the warehouse in Paris where the Giacometti is currently in storage. Leon's curator and I have reviewed the information and we think this facility is an appropriate and safe place to store for the sculpture. It is also helpful to have it at Chenue (the warehouse) in case Gagosian has additional potential purchasers who need to view it (better than trying to do viewings at Jeffrey's apartment). The fee is 70 Euros per month for the first three months, and then it increases to 100 Euros per month because at that point the work is no longer considered to be temporarily in France. I am checking with the shippers to determine when we will need to change the temporary import of the work into France into a permanent import and the VAT consequences of that, and will be back to you next week. Please let me know (1) if Jeffrey wants to store the Giacometti at Chenue for the time being and (2) what info I should give Chenue for the owner (I'm out of the office this week, so if you could resend me the address and contact person for The Haze Trust, I'll forward it to Chenue and have them send whatever account paperwork they need to have signed). I'm at a conference this week, so best reachable by email because I'm in lectures all day and then I can step out and call you/Jeffrey as needed.

The price would thus be 70 € + VAT for 3 months and 100 € + VAT after that. The smallest private space left in our facility is 18 sq. meters which I fear is far too big (this would be 850 € + VAT per month). I precise that even if your crate is stored in a collective area it does not mean we move it more. And if so happens our specialized handlers move it and you are notified in advance of course. Please do not hesitate if you need any further information.

Can you please tell me what temperature and humidity controls you have in place in the area where the sculpture will be stored? Also, is there an option to have the sculpture stored in a private room instead of in a general space with other objects and, if so, what is the cost? We are concerned about it being moved around a lot. I am confirming with the owner now, but I believe he will be keeping his own insurance on the sculpture while it is at the warehouse. Best, Heather EFTA01056927 From: Olivia Silberstein Imailtol Sent: Thursday, December 15, 2016 8:57 AM To: Heather Gray <Ma> Cc: Diana Howard <=a• Subject: RE: Giacometti Dear Heather, The presentation took place today morning. With Helene and Chantal's supervision, the work has been repacked (front panels) and transferred to the safe at presentation end.
