He has reduced the scope of the financial information request he sent previously, to something that is=more reasonable. As a result, he would like to see the following:=/u> 1. =C2 A current balance sheet (assets and liabilities) 2. =C2 A listing of gifts made (I believe gifts made in 2016 =nd 2017 will suffice.) a. =AO I am not aware of any gifts in addition to the Assignm=nt to Valeria of the copyright to Who Rules the World; please let me know =f any additional gifts. b. =AO Transfers of funds to Valeria that are used for the pa=ment of ongoing household expenses are not gifts. 3. =C2 The extent to which your expenses exceed your income; =nd 4. =C2 The extent to which you will be needing periodic distr=butions from the trust. Max indicated that he is not interested in the detai=s of your expenses. He is looking for big picture information. I believe we are at the point in this negotiation wi=h Max where we have reduced his information request to a more reasonable s=ope. I would like your permission to represent to him that he will b= provided with the above. He is balking at making the Massachusetts estimate until he receives thi= assurance. My and Max's brief email correspondence of y=sterday evening regarding the Massachusetts estimate (and confirmation tha= the federal payment has been sent) will follow this email. If you need time to consider this, please ensure that=you make the estimated tax payment by 12/31 directly to the Mass D.O.R. fr=m other funds, with the voucher that Matthew Mazotas sent yesterday via em=il and please let me know to keep me updated. I also discussed with Max the status of the list he =s preparing for a successor independent trustee. His belief is that = corporate trustee may not be willing to serve given the asset size of the=trusts. As a result he is considering lawyers who serve as trustee. He is not knowledgeable regarding the =urrent balance of your IRAs and this may influence him to include certain =orporate trustees on the list he is preparing for Harry. May I discl=se this information to him? I look forward to hearing from you. Best, Deborah 2 EFTA_R1_01794538 EFTA02604576 Deborah Pechet Qui=an, Esq.
