Dear Vincent,
Please find attached an updated worksheet, showing the royalty income donated to Noam's children.
These are conservative estimates, as I do not have complete records for every title, especially older titles.
If I can help with anything else, please let me know.
Best
Anthony

>> Thank you, Anthony. I really need some numbers, even if it is order of magnitude. There is no rush; we
may be in mediation in a few weeks. It sounds like I will not need you to deal with publishers if you can give
me reasonable order of magnitude numbers. For example, for Imperial Ambitions received approximately
$750,000 in royalties to date with the work still in circulation.

publishers, which will take some time.
