Therefore= in their minds, all the money should be inherited by them. In the will that Max proposed, the second wife would=receive $25,000, and even the remaining money from bank accounts should go=to the Noam Chomsky Revocable Trust.

At the time, before Noam a=d his second wife sold the apartment in Cambridge (that was bought after N=am and his second wife had been married -- btw that it was not allowed by =ax to be bought jointly in Noam's and his second wife's name) and =11 the tangible assets including, sheets, pillowcases, glasses, silverware= books, objects, rugs, furniture and all its content, as Max wrote, would =lso go to the NCRT.

The NC Revocable Trust has the three children as its beneficiaries. =iv> Harry was nominated trustee of the marital trust.=C2 He now controls the other trustee, Max.

EFTA_R1_01872847 EFTA02640043 After Noam realized that the gifts to=his children and payments of their expenses from the IRA, plus our own exp=nses were depleting the IRA in taxes that are being paid also from the IRA= he stopped the gifts to 10 family members. =div>The idea is that Noam uses only the IRA for all expenses and taxes, si=ce Noam designated one of the IRAs as the inheritance to his second wife.=C2 Interestingly they want to make sure that there are no current gifts=to the second wife. Maybe because they want to be able to contest th= will, saying that they -- Noam's children -- were excluded from Noam&=39;s inheritance. The only reason I can see why they would care if t=ere are gifts being made to the second wife is that this would diminish th=ir portion in the inheritance that they can claim from the IRA. Othe=wise, what difference would it make if the second wife receives it n=w or later? And a possible claim for the IRA is the same reason to c=ntrol our expenses, requesting financial information. =div>The main purpose of all this is to collect Noam's and his second w=fe's financial information to construct their own stories/cases. =Therefore, if even Noam provides all the financial information, they won&#=93 release more money from the marital trust than what they have already =ecided, and this, only if the conditions they established, such as signing=releases for them for their wrongdoing will be satisfied.

As you indic=te that you are not being represented by counsel I will reply directly to =ou, with a copy to Rich (as you suggest). Please consider: =span>1. =C2 As a starting point, let me note that I think =ou and Rich may have misunderstood (at least initially) the terms of the s=ttlement that Harry proposed through his attorney. Rich and I discussed this in a call about 10 d=ys ago and I'm hoping that misunderstanding has been cleared up, b=t as I'm not a party to your exchanges (and Rich's exchang=s) with Harry's attorney I can't be sure. also not certain whether the terms of the proposed settlement have changed. All I can=say for sure is that characterizing the offer as one in which distribution= to you cannot exceed $100K per year is not consistent with my understandi=g of what has been offered. =u> =span>2. =C2 As you know, Harry's attorney has comm=nced a legal action that is intended to facilitate my resignation and the =ppointment of a successor trustee to take my place. Since you've wanted me removed for some ti=e and since I've said (from the first time you and I met) that I o=Iy wanted to serve as trustee if all the family members wanted me to serve= I'm looking forward to resigning as soon as the court determines how I am to do so and how my successor is to be selected. =span>3. =C2 Given that my replacement is impending, it mig=t be worth waiting until my successor is in place before responding to my =equests for financial disclosure, as it's possible that my successor won't share my views as=to what the trustee of the trusts needs to know before making decisions ab=ut distributions. Likewise, if my 3 EFTA_R1_01872849 EFTA02640045 successor will be identified soon =t might make sense for me to hold off on any distributions and leave it to the new trustee to work with you on figuring all of this o=t. In this regard I'm kind of a "lame duck" =rustee, wouldn't you say? =span>4. =C2 To the extent that you want to push forward wh=le I remain the trustee, let me again state the basis for financial disclo=ure by you. It is that, as trustee, I owe a duty to you and I owe a duty to your children (as the =emainder beneficiaries of the trusts). For the present my primary du=y is to you and it is to distribute to you all income earned by the trusts= net of expenses, and to distribute to you (or pay on your behalf) additional monies as reasonably needed t= the extent that your income from other sources is not sufficient to suppo=t your reasonable expenses. Notwithstanding your statement that "As for the claim about concern for my later years, that has been thoro=ghly refuted" it has not been refuted in the context of my trusteeship and it remains my=duty to consider distributions in light of the possibility that you will h=ve a reasonable need for distributions from the trust for many more years,=and perhaps in increasing amounts, depending on your circumstances in the future. =u> =span>5. =C2 As for the specifics of disclosure, what I nee= to consider is (a) what your income was in 2017, since that was the basis=for the tax payments you seek to have reimbursed, (b) what your income is likely to be this year an= going forward, (c) what your expenses were in 2017 and are likely to be i= 2018, and (d) whether any of your income (or other resources) are being u=ed for purposes that the trust cannot support (such as gifts to third parties). So far, Rich has pr=vided me with some rough information about your 2017 expenses. There=are some gaps in that information, but nothing that can't be clear=d up pretty easily (I think). Rich has also assured me that you have not made any gifts that have diminished your resources an= I assume you would confirm that to me. What I don't have at this point is enough information about your in=ome, so that I can consider what the gap is between your expenses and your=income, which is the gap the trusts might help to close up. With res=ect to your income in 2017, all I can see is that your income tax obligations seem to be much higher than they were pre=iously. I'm assuming that reflects a jump in income from (i)=the profit made on the sale of the condominium, and (ii) large withdrawals=from your IRA. If you want to provide me with more information (bearing in mind what I noted in item #3, above) then inf=rmation about your 2017 income and what your income is likely to be this y=ar is what I most need. =u> I hope this is helpful and will wait to hear=more from you and/or Rich.

I would like to know what further info=mation you require for reimbursement for tax payment.
