Dear Noam and Richard,

I wanted to l=t you know that I am in receipt of both Rich's email of yesterday =vening
requesting that I prepare documentation to replace Max as the indep=ndent trustee with Richard based on Richard's
discussions with Max and N=am, and of Max's email below. (Rich please review Max =99s email, below.)
My advice: let me write to Max and request t=at he responds within a week to Noam's request
that he resigns. =AO If the response is not positive, I suggest that we move back to the plan Noam and I had established
on October 29th</=up> and which was on hold, i.e. that I help him craft a letter to his chil=ren requesting that a majority
of them agree to remove Max. Please r=call that removing Max is an option if he is not willing to resign, but that
requires that a majority of Noam=E2 s children participate in the removal. Barring that, we woul= need to institute a
court action to remove him, which I am sure everyone =opes to avoid. Noam please let me know if you agree with the
plan I have outlined above.
<= class="MsoNormal">Richard, assuming we are a=Ie to resolve this issue in the short term
please let me know under which =rovision of the independent trustee definition in the trust you qualify.
<=pan style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-s=rif";colorllf497d">
Based on Max's response below I bel=eve we are at a point where all communications should be
between me and Ma= regarding this issue. Richard this is because you are not Noam's attorney and I need to establish
the case direc=ly with Max, as Noam's counsel, as to why he needs to resign, as I=build my file. I intend to set forth the
manner in which the trust h=s been administered in this regard, if we have to get to that point, and I will get input from
all of you on this issue. =C2
I look forward to hearing from you both regarding the iss=es I have raised above and to
receiving specific direction from Noam. =A0

Best,
Deborah

Subject: RE: trustee
Good morning Noam =E2
I'm afraid th=t Rich may have misunderstood me in our conversation with respect to my se=ving
as trustee of the marital trusts. What I said to Rich was that I would =ever want to serve as trustee of a trust if the
beneficiaries did not wish me to serve as trustee, and I was =xplicit in stating that I would resign as trustee of these
trusts if you a=d your children no longer wish me to serve as trustee. I'm s=rry if there was some misunderstanding
between Rich and me, but I have not asked your children if they wished me to resig= and have not (as of yet) given
consideration to whether or not I would re=ign if you wish me to resign and one or more of your children wishes me
to=continue to serve as trustee.
As you will note, I am again copying Deborah =n our exchange.
Thanks,
Max
