From: Noam Chomsky To: "jeffrey E." <jeevacation@gmail.com>, Valeria Chomsky < Subject: Fwd: Scheduling a call Date: Tue, 12 Dec 2017 04:33:36 +0000 I'm inclined to write a strong letter to Harry saying that it is indeed urgent, there is time pressure, with a few words explaining why (I already have done this to some extent). What do you think? Forwarded message From: Harry Chomsky Date: Mon, Dec 11, 2017 at 5:57 PM Subject: Re: Scheduling a call To: Deborah Pechet Quinan Cc: Noam Chomsky Yes, I have a copy of the trust and I understand the procedure for selecting a trustee to replace Max should that become necessary. Can you say more about why it is imperative for us to speak to each other this week in particular? Is the topic of the call simply to consider the possibility of seeking a different co-trustee? If so, Pm not sure where the time pressure is coming from. If you need to tell me something and don't want to wait until I have established a relationship with a new attorney who can assist me during a call, perhaps you could send me the urgent information by e-mail.

Please let me know if you have a copy of the trust that contains the appointment powers. In the interest of moving your father's desires forward may we please schedule a call for this week. It is imperative that we do so for a number of reasons which I can explain when we speak. Deborah Sent from my iPhone. Please excuse brevity and typos.

I am still looking for a professional who can advise me during the call. I hope to write to you again with more concrete information soon.

I would need guidance from someone who is an expert in trust law and administration. Since Max cannot fill that role in this particular conversation, I will need to find another professional to advise me. I will begin my search process right away. When I have found someone, I will send a message of introduction to both of you and we can begin looking for a time that we can all talk. I will get back in touch with you soon. — Harry On Sat, Dec 2, 2017 at 1:27 PM, Deborah Pechet Quinan c wrote: Thank you Max. I did not feel it necessary to include the fact that a successor that is agreeable to Harry and Noam needs to be appointed as I felt that to be obvious since Harry has the appointment power subject to Noam's approval. Harry now that Max has offered this clarification please send me your availability to talk at a mutually convenient time on Monday and Tuesday. Thank you, Deborah Sent from my iPhone. Please excuse brevity and typos.

What I said in both of those calls is that I have agreed to resign if Noam and Harry wish to name a successor to me and are in agreement as to who that successor should be. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to clear up this misunderstanding. Max A.

From: On Behalf Of Harry Chomsky Sent: Saturday, December 02, 2017 1:42 PM To: Deborah Pechet Quinan; Max Kohlenberg Cc: Noam Chomsky Subject: Re: Scheduling a call I have not heard from Max that he has decided to resign. The last time I was told (by Noam, citing Richard) that Max had decided to resign, it was not the case. Max, will you please clarify your intentions?
