Good afternoon Noam and Rich —
I am about to send along the information about trust account activity referenced below. Because financial information
must be sent via encrypted email I am sending this message to give you a heads up. If you don't get a follow-up,
encrypted email in the next hour then please check your spam filter.
Thanks,
Max

Good morning Noam —
I'm sending along this note just to tell you that your inquiry has not been forgotten! I have obtained distribution reports
for both trusts from Bainco and from Goulston & Storrs. (Goulston & Storrs is the firm where the Palmer & Dodge trust
records from 2009 to 2015 are now held. As you may recall, Palmer & Dodge managed one trust account until 2015,
when it was consolidated with the trust accounts at Bainco.) The reports cover the period from January 1, 2009 to July
1, 2017. Because some of the items in the Goulston report are unclear (such as a 2015 distribution of Qualcomm stock
that the report says went to you, but which I think was actually a charitable gift) I am asking the folks at Goulston to
check their records for me. As soon as I have answer to those few questions I'll send the reports along.
Thanks,
Max

Noam —
The reports that I provided to Richard included figures from January 1, 2010 forward, but perhaps not all the detail that
you are looking for (and not covering 2009 in any case). I am now gathering information (from my own records and
from those at Bainco) about all of the trust distributions starting in 2009, including the date of distribution, the recipient
and the amount. I will get back to you with that information as soon as I can. I should also be able to provide you with
annual portfolio statements for each account. I believe that if you review those statements you will see how the
portfolios have been invested and how they have performed (both as to income generated and as to appreciation of
holdings).

Subject: information about Trusts
I've asked several times about information concerning the handling of the trusts since 2009. Quoting below from my
request. Could you please provide me with this information. My letter in red.

Until I asked about the matter recently, I am aware of no income distributed to me earned from the trusts. I cannot
be sure, because I have no record of having received any accounting of what is happening to the trusts, including
distributions to others (or as required, to me). Could you then please send me the records on these matters since
2009, when I appointed Harry to replace me as trustee.
I provided reports on income, expenses and distributions to Deborah Pechet Quinan last October and I copied those
reports to Richard (and updated them) in the last 60 days. I think it might be easiest if Richard forwarded those reports
to you, but if he can't for some reason then I will do so when I am back in my office.
I would like to know more about this. Richard Kahn did forward reports to me, but all that I see is from the
last few years, after I requested information. I don't have any records for the years since 2009, when I
appointed Harry trustee, neither about the income that was supposed to be paid to me or about
distributions from the Trust or any accounting of those years. So could you send them to both of us? In
particular, I would like to know the reason why there is virtually no income from the trust -- whether it was
paid to me from 2009 or not. And about the instructions for any distributions that may have been made
from the Trust.
