Dear
I'm writing m opes that you can pass this email on to Jeffrey Epstein. I've never
met Jeff but many people have told me that I should. As you know Fm not the
most social TED-ite. And now that I've banded in my TED badge for my Wurman
scarf....well...who knows. Here's the issue.
I led the last Titanic expedition. The results were spectacular...even beyond what I
thought they could be. There are great opportunities for entertainment and
education...among other things. I think the most interesting of these is the
creation of Virtual Titanic and getting it on a gaming platform like Xbox. ALL
OF THE DATA WE COLLECTED ARE THE PROPERTY of RMS Titanic Inc..
They funded the expedition.
RMS Titanic Inc is a subsidiary ofPremier Exhibitions NASDAQ: PRXI
This company has a long track record of a.) not recognizing the true value of Titanic and
b.) not capitalizing on a growing public interest (the recent documentaries were off
the chart).
Premier is the owner of the Titanic Artifact collection...which they exhibit. It's very
powerful but extremely poorly done. EXTREMELY.
They also hold salvor rights to the ship itself....and trust me there is more to be done at
the site.

Here's the issue. Premier wants to auction off the artifacts and maybe even sell the
company.
I know deadlines have come and gone but I also know that they have come to me for help.
At the end of the day they want the collection to stay AT LEAST in the hands of
someone in the Western Hemisphere. The price tag that they put on the collection
is in the vicinity of $190M. I am very sure it can be many many 10's of millions
less than that. The end price, the payment schedule....EVERYTHING can be
shaped.
I know lots of people that could "do this" but Jeffrey seems to me to be the kind of brain
that can see all or most of the angles.
If Jeffrey is interested I'd like to sit with him (and one or two of the RMS Titanic Inc
people) to discuss what the possibilities arc.
As you know, I don't do this sort of thing but I think (aside from finding Air France 447) it
could be the most important contribution to the world I make.
