Original Message From: Sent: Tuesday, March 28, 2023 2:45 PM Subject: [EXTERNAL EMAIL] - Re: Urgent: FinCEN matter Many thanks. Do you think you will have heard back from all the relevant FBI folks by Thursday, or do you mean that you will have gotten all the inquiries out by then? Also, is it possible to get the IDs for which the response has been "no concerns" or similar thus far, as an interim step? (We are considering a partial authorization as a step forward.) Again, we know this is a big lift and appreciate all your efforts! From: Sent: Tuesday, March 28, 2023 12:48 PM sunlect: : urgent: tint tN matter Hello, We should be done by Thursday.

Sorry that took a minute. Here are our responses. Hope this is what you need. If not, or if you need more information, please just let us know. - Purpose of disclosing the reports Discovery in a series of civil lawsuits in the Federal District Court for the Southern District of New York against banks based on the banks' provision of financial services to sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. Specifically, an unnamed Epstein victim (and a claimed class of victims, "Doe") are suing both JP Morgan Chase and Deutsche Bank. The government of the U.S. Virgin Islands is separately suing JP Morgan. The cases have been consolidated for discovery. - Who is requesting disclosing these reports Both the USVI and JP Morgan are seeking disclosure of the SARs in that matter, and all parties are seeking disclosure in the Doe matters. - Who will be receiving or viewing these reports Initially, just the attorneys representing the banks and the attorneys for the plaintiffs. But we anticipate the banks are likely seek further authorization to disclose the reports to the plaintiffs themselves, each other (i.e., for Deutsche Bank to see the JPMorgan reports and vice versa), and witnesses (e.g., expert witnesses, bank employees). There are protective orders in place that cover SAR confidentiality. - Any other relevant information would assist the agents in deciding whether to object or not Many of these reports relate to transactions that took place over a decade ago, though some of the reports themselves were not filed until roughly a decade later, after Epstein's arrest. We are not aware ourselves of any ongoing investigations related to these matters. Although FinCEN normally does not authorize the disclosure of reports in civil litigation, this litigation presents special circumstances, and the presiding judge has indicated he may order the reports' disclosure if FinCEN does not authorize it.

From Sent: on a arc : Subject: - : rgent: in matter Privileged/BSA Confidential As Katrina indicated, attached please find the first batch of SAR names and dates of birth (where known/applicable). As Katrina noted, this process is taking a bit longer than we originally hoped and we're still working through a number of additional SARs. Thus, we'll shoot to have you a supplemental list later today (which I hope to be short, as I'm expecting a lot of the same subjects in the remaining SARs). If you have any questions, please let us know. Best, EFTA00162429

There are more names than anticipated because several of the SARs have multiple subjects. I'm about to take off on a flight. My colleague Tim (copied) is coordinating this for us, and will have the first batch of names and DOBs (where applicable) shortly. Pls feel free to reach out to Tim if you need anything.
