MEMORANDUM
To: Barry J. Cohen, John J. Harman and Richard Ressler; Trustees of the APOI Agreement
From: Leon D. Black
Re: Suggested Art Purchases
This is to memorialize my advice to you in September 2014 that as Trustees of the Discretionary Trust
under the APOI Agreement (the "Trust") you consider purchasing several works by the artist Peter
Sacks that were then available for purchase from Robert Miller Gallery, namely:
1. AF7'ERATH (MANDALA) [SAC-0023]
2. ULYSSES 1, 2013 [SACK-0044]
3. ULYSSES 2, 2013 [SACK-0037]
4. ULYSSES 3, 2013 [SACK-0038]
5. ULYSSES 4, 2013 [SACK-0043]
6. ULYSSES .5, 2013 [SACK-0036]
7. ULYSSES 6, 2013 [SACK-0035]
8. ULYSSES 8, 2013 [SACK-0042]
9. ULYSSES 9, 2013 [SACK-0045]
10. ULYSSES 10, 2013 [SACK-0046]
11. ULYSSES 11, 2013 [SACK-0040]
12. ULYSSES 12, 2013 [SACK-0039]
Peter Sacks is a living artist whose works are represented in private and public collections
internationally, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Museum of Fine Arts Boston, and the
Museum of Fine Arts Houston. Accordingly, it was my opinion the above works would be worthwhile
additions to the Trust's portfolio. In addition, I advised that you consider purchasing the referenced
works as the Trust owned only one work of Contemporary Art at the time, that being Ed Ruscha's Egg.
Therefore, the referenced works by Peter Sacks would help to diversify the Trust's fine art portfolio.

APOI AGREEMENT
The undersigned, representing all of the Trustees (the "Trustees") of the

in fine art.
3. The attached memorandum by Leon D. Black that the works
