To: "jeffrey E." <jeevacation@gmail.com>, Valeria Chomsky
Max seems to be trying to make this as difficult and unpleasant as possible. Do you think we should provide
this information?
If so, I would be inclined to answer the question about expenses and income by spelling out how they were
taking money from the IRA for distribution to family and taxes/management fees for the whole estate,
exhausting it.

Dear Noam and Valeria,
As you know I spoke with Max on Monday afternoon regarding his requirements for financial information
from you in order to make the additional principal distributions from the marital trust that we requested. He
EFTA01007049
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:
I. A current balance sheet (assets and liabilities)
2. A listing of gifts made (I believe gifts made in 2016 and 2017 will suffice.)
a. I am not aware of any gifts in addition to the Assignment to Valeria of the copyright to Who
Rules the World; please let me know of any additional gifts.
b. Transfers of funds to Valeria that are used for the payment of ongoing household expenses
are not gifts.
3. The extent to which your expenses exceed your income; and
4. The extent to which you will be needing periodic distributions from the trust.
Max indicated that he is not interested in the details of your expenses. He is looking for big picture
information.
I believe we are at the point in this negotiation with Max where we have reduced his information request to a
more reasonable scope. I would like your permission to represent to him that he will be provided with the
above. He is balking at making the Massachusetts estimate until he receives this assurance. My and
Max's brief email correspondence of yesterday evening regarding the Massachusetts estimate (and
confirmation that 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. from other
funds, with the voucher that Matthew Mazotas sent yesterday via email and please let me know to keep
me updated.
I also discussed with Max the status of the list he is preparing for a successor independent trustee. His belief is
that a 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 current balance of your IRAs
and this may influence him to include certain corporate trustees on the list he is preparing for Harry. May I
disclose this information to him?
I look forward to hearing from you.
Best,
Deborah
