Subject: Re: FW: Scheduling a call
I wrote Harry a strong letter say that the matter was inde=d urgent and shouldn't be delayed, and asked him to please
arrange the=call as quickly as possible. I don't think you should bring up a=y special considerations (health, house,
anything). The urgency has =o do with the taxes, and there is no reason for Max or Harry to have any e=aborate
explanation of why we need the money.
When mone= was being withdrawn regularly from my IRA to pay taxes and management fee= for the entire estate,
neither Max nor anyone else asked for an explanati=n or a financial review of the beneficiaries, or any account of how
money =rom the trusts was being used (not for or by me). The withdrawal fro= the IRA for taxes and management fees
for the entire estate was just done= There are even stronger reasons to keep to that procedure in the pr=sent case,
since I am simply asking for tax payments from funds that I sho=ld have full access to.
Doesn't seem to me th=t anything is needed beyond that.

Noam,
Please see the email from=Harry below inquiring into the urgency of speaking this week. In my =mail response to Harry
(and in my call with Max today) I would like to make reference to your increasing anxiety level and its detrimenta= effect
on your health that Richard has told me of, which is the primary r=ason, in addition to the delays in addressing the issues
at stake, to insi=t on some progress this week via a call with Harry. I would also like to make reference to the fact t=at
your recent distribution request was for the purchase of your new home =n Arizona since I did not see that specifically
referenced in your request=to Max.
Since these are private m=tters to you and I do not know whether Harry is aware of the above health =nd purpose I
would like your permission to disclose them to him, and also to Max.
Please let me know.
Thank you,<=span>

Yes, I have a copy of the trust and I understand the=procedure for selecting a trustee to replace Max should that
become necess=ry.
Can you say more about why it is imperative for us t= speak to each other this week in particular? Is the topic of the ca=I
simply to consider the possibility of seeking a different co-trustee?4>=A0 If so, I'm not sure where the time pressure is

If you need to tell me something and don't want =o wait until I have established a relationship with a new attorney who
can=assist me during a call, perhaps you could send me the urgent information =y e-mail.

Deborah, I'd be happy to talk to you about the q=estion of who should serve as my co-trustee. I would need

When I have found someone, I will send = message of introduction to both of you and we can begin looking for a tim=

I will get back in touch with you soon.
