Goldberger and Black: I write to follow up on my e-mail correspondence of June 24 and June 26, and my message this morning. As of 3:15 pm., Friday, June 27, 2008, the Office still has not received a copy of a proposed plea agreement between Mr. Epstein and the State Attorney's Office, nor has the Office received notice of a date and time for a change of plea. As you know, the Non-Prosecution Agincourt between Mr. Epstein and the Office called for Mr. Epstein to plead, be sentenced, and begin serving his sentence not later than January 4, 2008—almost six months ago. The Office has continued that deadline to allow /qr. Epstein to raise various issues with the Department of Justice, but repeatedly advised that, once those appeals were completed, Mr. Epstein would need to perform the terms of the agreement within a short window thereafter. Now that those appeals have been exhausted, we promptly informed counsel for Mr. Epstein that he must enter his plea, be sentenced, andbegin serving his sentence by 5:00 on Monday, June 30, 2008, This week I have sent two e-mails and left a message with Mr. Black's receptionist asking for the date and time of the change of plea and for a copy of the proposed plea agreement between Mr. Epstein and the State Attorney's Office in accordance with the terms of the Non-Prosecution Agreement. I have received no response to any of those requests. EFTA00213796 JUN.27.2009 3:39PM USAO WPB FL NO.324 P.3 JACK GOLDBERGER, ESQ. ROY BLACK, ESQ. JOKE 27, 2008 PAGE 2 OF 2 I have received correspondence from counsel for a witness asking to cancel or continue the witness's appearance because he "understand[s] that there has been a recent development with respect to Mr. Epstein in that he intends to plead guilty in Florida state court on Monday pursuant to a deferred prosecution agreement with your office that has already been executed" and that he has "learned from Mr. Epstein's attorney that the plea is scheduled to take place on Monday morning." I also understand that there is an envy on Judge McSorley's docket that a hearing is scheduled for 8:30 a.m. on Monday. Both parties have agreed that it is amaterial term of the Non-ProsecutionAgreementthatthe United States shall have the right to review the terms of any agreements between Epstein and the State Attorney's Office prior to entering into those agreements. If, indeed, the change of plea is set for 8:30 Monday morning, the agreement with the State Attorney's Office must be provided to the Office by 4:30 today to allow adequate time to review and comment. Failure to provide this opportunity shall be deemed a breach of the Agreement. Accordingly, I again ask that you provide me with a copy of the Plea Agreement with the State Attorney's Office and notification of the date and time of the change of plea. Thank you. Sincerely, R.
