Hello Mr. Kahn,
As we discussed earlier, the actual amount available for redirection by Mr. and Mrs. Black was $467,150. We wired
the funds to MIT-Media on February 14, 2019. Between Friday 2/15 and yesterday, we have corresponded with
Marissa Marcoux at MIT-Media confirming receipt of the funds and we have passed along the language in the letter
you sent us from Mr. Black as guidance for the use of the funds.
Thanks,
Ginny
