Richard has requested tha= Max distribute an amount to you from the trusts of the amounts paid for y=ur 2016

have=received from Matthew Mazotas this amount is $109,271. Please confirm that you want me to request this
distribution from the tr=st from Max.
Please note that you and =aleria are my clients, and I cannot take direction from Richard with respe=t to your

=arameters of my duty to you which is paramount in all matters.
I appreciate your earlies= convenient response and am available to speak by phone if that would be e=sier.
