Alan and Jeffrey,
The agent finally called me this morning. 40=A0 He was apologetic that he didn't call sooner. He said he=E24040s been
in and out
of the office the last couple of weeks.
He was very nice on the phone....saying we can=have more time to get him the information requested.
However, he said to contact him by the end of May if=we still need more time. He said he would grant
more time, if necessary.
I would hope we can get the response done as soon as=possible so we don't have to ask for more time.
The bad news is that they will also examine 2014.4=A0 He told me a letter will go out soon.
Mr. Falk readily volunteered that it is the GRATS (s=ecifically the valuations) that are kicking off the audits.
He did say that he would try to "move the au=its alone.... He also said he sees (and audits) valuations
from Empire all the time.
I'm reachable all day, if you would like to =all.

To:=Melanie Spinella < < >>
I am sorry. I realize you are under tremendous stress, In Bedfor= you asked me for my help I could not have been
more clear that thou=ht it very unwise as in my words I did not want any financial arrangm=nt between us, it risked
conflict and tension what neither of us n=eded more of. and did not want to risk torturing our friendship into the likes
of the kind you have with Mark nor Josh, : now,4=A0 I dont have anyone but you yelling at me, in my own house. no
one. it is highly unpleasant but I am trying my best to be understanding . sorry = From the outset and as you told me
you recall. i tsuggested t=at three years should be the period of engagment. as planning is not a o=e year excericse .
you declined to commit to a number of alternatives presented to you for payment of the third year. I told yo= in nov
that you should decide whether to now sign on for that very third year as the vast majority of my work ended on oct 15.
you recently t=ld me you thought i was kidding. .you hired brad patting him on the back=20 that after months of
inquiry he can now, finallly tell you which Ilc=20 owns the cars??
once he has all the facts what next ??. whether or not you refer to a portion of the third y=ar as after care, or
whatever term besides 'scoundrel you choose to use,Q=A0 I m not sure why you assume now it should be free.( I HATE
THIS CONVERSATION=20 < HATE , ) and i heard you when you said you told me what wasi>=A0 I work still to be done
you thought valuable enough to pay for. please=20 tell me . and then we can decide the next steps „, if any. I consider
my work rarefied art. I guess the value is in the eye of the beholder=. IT reminds me of those people looking at a
modern art piece and saying40=A0 " my child could do that " . hope you are feeling be=ter.

I know that both you and I heard brads'. im out of here if i dont =et a coo. . sorry,. i know that neither of us have stood
in the way =f his finding/ getting one.. JPM account D8 account GS account, ???=C24> its MAY 1. nothing in the first
quarter and these are only papers that ne=d signing.
I suggest your thinking on my role and compensation for my work might benefit , from a mental shift - =hink mark and
josh, without the mutual resentment ( HAHA) only in terms of=20 sharing ,thanks, I am and have been your financial
partn=r i.. rectifying circumstances that appear in hind sight unexpl=inable. I wish you woudl have asked me earllier
to review your things, but i understand. I do know that soley as a result of my actions you= personal bottom line has
increased dramatica=ly, if you had thought of me as your partner in this endeavor , instead of an employee, i think
your reaction to sharing t benefits would be different.
If you recall, you wanted me to be p=id , unlike others at the END of my work. we discussed this ad nauseum,Q=A0
and agreed OCT 15, last year was the end . You had wanted more comf=rt initially on the art partnership so that date
was delayed. It h=s now been six monhts since then, your concept of aftercare . .=C2* for free. was already unique,
in your words this has to have an end.( w=aned ) if the actions of josh and mark led to one =undred million dollars ,
what would be their share. Im not sure why it =s different in your mind. but i respect the fact that it is, Is it because
their=20 work seems harder. it cannot be simply because they=devote more time to you .or it appears to involve more
effort. I am happy to co=tinue to play a partnership role. as I have been in many areas of your lif=. . I am also happy to
move on and have no more of these emails. =1 find them as tedious as you do . if you prefer a partnership structure , =k
with me, I tried to minimize the amount of money i would recieve by=20 making it a flat fee . as i wanted you to feel
good and have no second thoguths somehow if the payment comes from a partnership struc=ure you seem relaxed as
opposed to writing a check, I focus on40=A0 trust and friendship first, and the fact that you don't include josh and
mark in=20 that category, gives me great pause . I proposed 33 perc=nt of money made for you. . in the past you
agreed that amount. it will b= huge, but ok with me, I can talk today at 945 as yo= suggested. or if you woudl rather
over the weekend ok

Jeffrey-leon and I (and martin kelly) all like john c for the coo/cfo role. Next step is for you to interview him; hopefully in
person. When will you be arnd or is this a skype.
Remember he's at the sackler family coming from ray chambers. Various=20 observations were: nice manor, seasoned,
sufficient seniority to have rj report to him, willing to get hands dirty on numbers, knowledge of IT platforms,
partnership issues, accounting.
