From: Todd Meister Date: Saturday, June 8, 2013 Subject: RE: To: Jeffrey Epstein [email protected]> Neil and U called me as well to say that they are working on it with steve. That call occured on friday. Can you exercise any influence here as neil and ari respect ou and are concerned with their reputations? Tommy Tisch is going to organise for me and to have lunch and said he would tell him that "I am honest, a wonderful guy, talented and that he would back me himself"... they are best friends. I have retrieved texts and emails from neil asking me to bring ari into the equation dated may 22. Jeff- please help make this right. I have stuck by you, been a true friend and looked to you as a mentor. and neil wpuld not have come togrther without me and without my working with both of them to find the right model. Steve hanson should not be engaging with them as they are squeezing me out. There was room for everyone. .. this about greed and If you protected me and neil wouldnt cross you. They are afraid of you and worry about their reputations. Steve "wouldnt do this without you", I took notes on the call. He shouldnt do it at all... please stand up for me and exert your influence... i put my hesrt in this and can add tremendous value. As of monday all emails and conversations with neil and ari were beyond positive. I am struggling and very uoset. I only appeal to your sense of decency - I think you know how hard I have worked on this and for how long. Please help make this right.

He said that he is pursuing a transaction to partner with neil and ari and that he is doing this with you. Is it true? Jeffrey, I worked so hard to pull this together and to introduce you to the managers and the fund concept... how could steve who you asked me to introduce to neil ,which I did, do this to me? I consider you a mentor and friend and 1 openly trusted yoi and who you brought. Finally if it is true that you and steve are doing this- he said he wouldnt do it without you- why? I really worked hard, had tremendous opportunity cost, zero income , and thought you weir my mentor and friend EFTA_R1_004 53907 EFTA01971281
