Knight February 3, 2011 Page 2 unexpected sexual deviance. She deserves fair compensation for her injuries in an amount that also addresses the punitive nature of Mr. Epstein's actions against her. As such, she is demanding $300,000 as full settlement for all claims. While I know from experience that this is more money than Mr. Epstein has paid in the past for "one-timers", it is a lesser amount than will receive at a trial on her case and an amount that represents an extreme compromise on her behalf. We will delay filing a lawsuit for fifteen (15) days as we await your response to this demand. Very truly yours, FARMER, JAFFE, WEISSING, EDWARDS, FISTOS & LEHRMAN, P.L. Bradley J.
