Subject: My view of the situation
The three children believe that all Noam's money,=not only from the marital Trust, but also from the IRAs belongs to
them, b=cause it was made when Noam was married to their mother.
</=iv>
But not only from the time their marriage lasted, b=cause after Noam and his second wife had been married, Harry once
flew fro= California to complain that royalties even of a new book that Noam wrote =fter being married to his second
wife should NOT come to the second wife).=C2 And the book publication was delayed and all sorts of legal difficul=ies
and pressure from Max to have the book only under Noam's name -- w=th Deborah's endorsement, until Gene Landy
stood up in the case.
=div>
Therefore, in their minds, all the money should be inhe=ited by them.
In the will that Max pr=posed, the second wife would receive $25,000, and even the remaining money=from bank
accounts should go to the Noam Chomsky Revocable Trust. At=the time the bank account was being used only as an
account for making pay=ents. So it had only the exact amount for payments.
At the time, before Noam and his second wife sold the apartment in Cambr=dge (that was bought after Noam and his
second wife had been married -- bt= that it was not allowed by Max to be bought jointly in Noam's and his=second
wife's name) and all the tangible assets including, sheets, pil=owcases, glasses, silverware, books, objects, rugs, furniture
and all its =ontent, as Max wrote, would also go to the NCRT. Therefore, includin= things that Noam and his second wife
had acquired together.
The document stated that then all tangible assets would be sold=and the money would be reverted to the NC Revocable
Trust, that would have=become at that point irrevocable. The NC Revocable Trust has the three chi=dren as its
beneficiaries.
Harry was nominated tr=stee of the marital trust. He now controls the other trustee, Max.</=iv>
The IRA has been the main source of income and Noam=n39;s children want it to be the only source of income,
preserving the mar=tal trust intact for themselves.
After Noam=realized that the gifts to his children and payments of their expenses fro= the IRA, plus our own expenses
were depleting the IRA in taxes that are b=ing paid also from the IRA, he stopped the gifts to 10 family members. =A0
The idea is that Noam uses only the IRA fo= all expenses and taxes, since Noam designated one of the IRAs as the
inhe=itance to his second wife. Interestingly they want to make sure that=there are no current gifts to the second wife.
Maybe because they wa=t to be able to contest the will, saying that they -- Noam's children =- were excluded from
Noam's inheritance. The only reason I can s=e why they would care if there are gifts being made to the second wife is
=hat this would diminish their portion in the inheritance that they can cla=m from the IRA. Otherwise, what difference
EFTA_R1_01871666
EFTA02639358
would it make if th= second wife receives it now or later? And a possible claim for the =RA is the same reason to control
our expenses, requesting financial inform=tion.
The main purpose of all this is to collect =oam's and his second wife's financial information to construct the=r own
stories/cases. Therefore, if even Noam provides all the financ=al information, they won't release more money from the
marital trust t=an what they have already decided, and this, only if the conditions they e=tablished, such as signing
releases for them for their wrongdoing will be =atisfied.
The whole thing is about ha=ing control of our lives and see how much we spend in the market and be ab=e to
denounce that we are spending too much here or there and that we are =ot living according to the "family's standards"
and that the= have to intervene.
Crazy!

the gifts to third parties are a refence to valeria =AO AGAIN!!! . he should not be allowed to sl=p away . and abdicate
his past or present responsibilites. =AO you need to send a strong response. . =AO You are trustee and have been for
many years. I belie=e that trying to avoid fufilling those responsiblites by delay, and repea=ed questions re gifts,
which we have answered a numner of times =AO is unacceptable. . there is over 2 million dollars in the trust .=so
pretending that the concern is for my future , is clearly untrue. =C2 having the trust income payouts being less than 10k
per year a= you and harry have paid expenses to which i was never consulted is outrag=ious,

Subject: Marital Trusts
Noam —
Thank you for your reply. As you indic=te that you are not being represented by counsel I will reply directly to
=ou, with a copy to Rich (as you suggest). Please consider:
1. As you know, Harry's attorney has comm=nced a legal action that is intended to facilitate my resignation
and the =ppointment of a successor trustee to take my place. Since you've wanted me removed for some ti=e and since
I've said (from the first time you and I met) that I o=ly wanted to serve as trustee if all the family members wanted me to
serve= I'm looking forward to resigning as soon as the court determines how I am to do so and how my successor is to
be selected.
3. To the extent that you want to push forward wh=le I remain the trustee, let me again state the basis for
financial disclo=ure by you. It is that, as trustee, I owe a duty to you and I owe a duty to your children (as the =emainder
beneficiaries of the trusts). For the present my primary du=y is to you and it is to distribute to you all income earned by
the trusts= net of expenses, and to distribute to you (or pay on your behalf) additional monies as reasonably needed t=
the extent that your income from other sources is not sufficient to suppo=t your reasonable expenses. Notwithstanding
your statement that "As for the claim about concern for my later years, that has been thoro=ghly refuted" it has not
been refuted in the context of my trusteeship and it remains my=duty to consider distributions in light of the possibility
that you will h=ve a reasonable need for distributions from the trust for many more years,=and perhaps in increasing
amounts, depending on your circumstances in the future.
</=pan>
5. As for the specifics of disclosure, what I nee= to consider is (a) what your income was in 2017, since that
was the basis=for the tax payments you seek to have reimbursed, (b) what your income is likely to be this year an= going
forward, (c) what your expenses were in 2017 and are likely to be i= 2018, and (d) whether any of your income (or other
resources) are being u=ed for purposes that the trust cannot support (such as gifts to third parties). So far, Rich has
pr=vided me with some rough information about your 2017 expenses. There=are some gaps in that information, but
nothing that can't be clear=d up pretty easily (I think). Rich has also assured me that you have not made any gifts that
have diminished your resources an= I assume you would confirm that to me. What I don't have at this point is enough
information about your in=ome, so that I can consider what the gap is between your expenses and your=income, which
is the gap the trusts might help to close up. With res=ect to your income in 2017, all I can see is that your income tax
obligations seem to be much higher than they were pre=iously. I'm assuming that reflects a jump in income from (i)=the
profit made on the sale of the condominium, and (ii) large withdrawals=from your IRA. If you want to provide me with
3
EFTA_R1_01871668
EFTA02639360
more information (bearing in mind what I noted in item #3, above) then inf=rmation about your 2017 income and what
your income is likely to be this y=ar is what I most need.
</=pan>
I hope this is helpful and will wait to hear=more from you and/or Rich.

Thanks for your message and your inquiry. =AO I would like to reply in some detail, but before I do so please tell
me whether you are now represented by legal counsel. =f you are then I believe I'm obliged to copy your counsel on our
e=changes. I would also plan on copying Rich Kahn, since my last commu=ications about distributions to you from the

Please also bear in mind that since (accordi=g to Rich) you are preparing to bring a legal action against me, I

Max,
I presume it is clear that the recent proposal trans=itted by Harry's lawyer that I should be satisfied with a
handout =f 100k a year from the Marital Trust is too disgraceful for comment. I would like to know what further
info=mation you require for reimbursement for tax payment. We have previously t=ansmitted a great deal of financial
information in order for you to reimbu=se our taxes, including proof of payment and more. Exactly what more do you
require, and with what justi=ication? We see little reason that you cannot act on the information=already provided. As
for the claim about concern for my later =ears, that has been thoroughly refuted.
