Page 201 1 Epstein 2 you? 3 A. Correct. 4 Q. And the reason that you are telling 5 Mr. Dubin that you want out is because you can't 02:50:10 6 get a firm answer on this issue; isn't that 7 correct? That's what the e-mail says; correct? 8 A. What I was suggesting, again, is that I 9 had enough of Dan Zwirn and his firm bullshitting 10 us, lying to us, misleading us. I want all my 02:50:26 11 money out. 12 Q. What you say, This is why I want out. 13 A. Correct. 14 Q. The e-mail to which he refers was sent 15 months ago. There were many conflicting 02:50:36 16 conversations since then. After yesterday when I 17 was promised to get a firm answer, we heard 18 nothing except the e-mail received only this 19 morning, copied to you; correct? That's what it 20 says? 02:50:47 21 A. Yes. 22 Q. And it makes reference to no other 23 issue about getting out is that correct? 24 except what's there? 25 A. You have to repeat the question, I'm 02:50:58 VERITEXT REPORTING COMPANY www.veritext.com EFTA00299285
Page 202 1 Epstein 2 sorry. 3 Q. It states a reason for wanting to get 4 out and states nothing further; correct? 5 A. No. 02:51:07 6 Q. It does state something further? 7 A. Yes. 8 Q. What does it state further? 9 A. It says there were many conflicting 10 conversations since then. 02:51:19 11 Q. And those were the conversations about 12 the valuation; correct? 13 A. It was the valuation, and my 14 recollection is that it goes back to when I can 15 get my additional $53 million out. Sorry. 02:51:25 16 Q. You testified a moment ago that the 17 conflicting conversations were about the 18 valuation. Are you changing that testimony? 19 A. Yes, sir. You just refreshed my 20 recollection. Thank you. 02:51:40 21 Q. What was it that I said that refreshed 22 your recollection? 23 A. Because there were many conflicting 24 statements, and the concept was I wanted to know 25 when I could get the rest of my money out, all 02:51:48 VERITEXT REPORTING COMPANY www.veritext.com EFTA00299286
Page 203 1 Epstein 2 along, and then in fact I think this refreshed my 3 recollection that they were saying you can't get 4 your $80 million and there's a crazy redemption 5 schedule for the rest. 02:52:00 6 Q. What did I say that refreshed your 7 recollection? 8 A. I don't know specifically. 9 Q. But I refreshed your recollection? 10 A. But thank you. 02:52:06 11 Q. And the $80 million isn't referred to 12 anywhere here; is that correct? 13 A. That's correct. It says total, I want 14 all of it out. It says I want out, which is all 15 of it. 02:52:18 16 Q. There is nothing in the text of the 17 e-mail that refers to $80 million; is that 18 correct? 19 A. That's correct, that's correct. 20 MR.

The time order isn't consistent. Glenn 03:12:24 16 Dubin said that Dan Zwirn was a liar, a cheat, 17 it's amazing that the SEC found him -- found no 18 substantial violation, he must done a very good 19 job. Sorry, that he misled everybody, he was a 20 micromanager, that even the idea of the airplane 03:12:58 21 expenses, nothing Dan Zwirn had told him turned 22 out to be accurate. 23 Q. Was that one conversation? 24 A. No, it was many conversations, sorry. 25 Q. This was many conversations? 03:13:17 VERITEXT REPORTING COMPANY www.veritext.com EFTA00299292
Page 209 1 Epstein 2 A. I'm conglomerating many conversations 3 over a period of time. 4 Q. The conversation with him about the SEC 5 not finding anything substantial, is what you 03:13:24 6 said, when was that? 7 A. That was recently, after the SEC gave 8 Dan a pass. 9 Q. He called you up? 10 A. No. 03:13:34 11 Q. You called him up? 12 A. It was on a telephone call. I don't 13 know who called. 14 Q. Who raised the issue? 15 A. I did. 03:13:41 16 Q. What did you say? 17 A. How is it possible that the SEC didn't 18 call me and ask me to testify against this 19 scumbag. That's what I said. 20 Q. And in response to that he said what 03:13:51 21 you said he said, that it's amazing that they 22 didn't find a substantial violation? 23 A. And that they didn't call you. 24 Q. Did they call him? 25 A. I don't know. 03:14:01 VERITEXT REPORTING COMPANY www.veritext.com EFTA00299293

Any other conversations you remember 15 with Mr. Dubin about this matter? 03:14:24 16 A. They all basically came down to the 17 same -- again, conglomerate a bunch of 18 conversations, it was all the fact that Dan Zwirn 19 was a crook. 20 Q. Did you ever have a conversation with 03:14:36 21 Perry Gruss? 22 A. Yes. 23 Q. When was that? 24 A. In the past two months. 25 Q. Who was present? 03:14:49 VERITEXT REPORTING COMPANY www.veritext.com EFTA00299294
Page 211 1 Epstein 2 A. I believe just Mr. Gruss and me. 3 Q. Who set up the meeting? 4 A. I did. 5 Q. How? 03:15:05 6 A. I called him. 7 Q. And asked if he would meet with you? 8 A. Yes. 9 Q. Where did you meet? 10 A. My house. 03:15:12 11 Q. In New York? 12 A. Yes, sir. 13 Q. How long was the meeting? 14 A. Five minutes. 15 Q. What did you say to him and what did he 03:15:18 16 say to you? 17 A. I said tell me about Dan Zwirn. He 18 said, Dan Zwirn is a very bad guy. He was a 19 micromanager. The fund has monstrous liquidity 20 problems. There was never going to be -- even 03:15:42 21 though he told you there was going to be a run on 22 the bank, that was not true. 23 The fact is that the fund had no money, 24 it had no liquidity, that it had been borrowing 25 from the offshore fund because in fact it deferred 03:15:56 VERITEXT REPORTING COMPANY www.veritext.com EFTA00299295
Page 212 1 Epstein 2 fees to benefit Zwirn's personal tax position, 3 that the -- he thought that the SEC might file an 4 investigation against him, Perry Gruss, sometime 5 in the future. 03:16:18 6 That Mr. Kahn had showed up on most of 7 the e-mail with respect to the airplane which 8 Schulte Roth had been -- I believe it was, Schulte 9 Roth had been called in in May of '06, my best 10 recollection, sir, to deal with the issues of the 03:16:38 11 airplane, which was never disclosed to me; that -- 12 Q. "You" "me" meaning you? 13 A. Yes, sir. 14 That I -- that there had been a lawsuit 15 I believe he told me he had filed against Zwirn, 03:16:59 16 but I'm not sure of that; that as everyone else 17 knew that Dan was a micromanager; that he -- 18 though the SEC found he didn't know anything about 19 the airplane, that was his position, it was 20 ridiculous. 03:17:19 21 Dan Zwirn was the only one who could 22 make investments. Dan Zwirn ran the company very 23 tightly; that Dan Zwirn never had any real cash; 24 that after -- after the conversations with me with 25 respect to my redemption, it became even -- he 03:17:42 VERITEXT REPORTING COMPANY www.veritext.com EFTA00299296
1 2 3 Page Epstein wasn't there. But most of the blame was going to be put on him, something like that. 213 4 Q. Anything else you remember? 5 A. No. 03:17:58 6 Q. In five minutes were you sitting down? 7 Were you standing up? Did you actually invite him 8 in? 9 A. I have very little patience. I invited 10 him in. 03:18:09 11 Q. That's already been established. 12 A. I sat down. 13 Q. You sat down? 14 A. Yes. 15 Q. And he made a speech and then left? 03:18:13 16 A. Yes. 17 Q. Did you ask him any questions? 18 A. Not very many. 19 Q. So it was just tell me about Dan Zwirn, 20 and this is what he said? 03:18:21 21 A. That's correct. 22 Q. Did he tell you of any instance in 23 which he communicated with Dan Zwirn about 24 anything that he was doing that was improper? 25 A. No. 03:18:31 VERITEXT REPORTING COMPANY www.veritext.com EFTA00299297
Page 214 1 Epstein 2 Q. He told you that Dan Zwirn knew about 3 the airplane in the spring of 2006 because Schulte 4 Roth was called in to look at it then? 5 A. That's my best recollection. 03:18:48 6 Q. Did he tell you that he had ever 7 communicated to Dan Zwirn anything about the 8 airplane prior to the spring of 2006? 9 A. As I said before, he told me that Dan 10 Zwirn was a micromanager, he knew everything, and 03:19:00 11 Mr. Kahn was the person in fact who got fired 12 but -- over the airplane. And it was never -- it 13 was never disclosed to me that in fact there was 14 no liquidity in the fund. Sorry. 15 Q. Did he ever tell you -- two things are 03:19:15 16 established: Some people think that Dan Zwirn is 17 a micromanager, and you're impatient. 18 A. Correct. 19 Q. My question to you is did he ever tell 20 you that he communicated anything to Dan Zwirn 03:19:28 21 about the airplane prior to the spring of 2006 22 A. No. 23 MR. SIFFERT: Or even in 2006. 24 Q. Or anything after the spring of -- did 25 he ever tell you he communicated anything to Dan 03:19:53 VERITEXT REPORTING COMPANY www.veritext.com EFTA00299298
Page 215 1 Epstein 2 Zwirn about wrongdoing after the spring of 2006 3 face-to-face? 4 A. No. 5 Q. Do you know who Ron Tutor is? 03:20:11 6 A. No. 7 MR. SUSMAN: How do you spell that? 8 MR. SCHWARTZ: T-U-D-O-R. I'll check 9 it. T-U-T-O-R. 10 Q. You reached settlement with the fund at 03:20:42 11 some point; correct? 12 A. Correct. 13 Q. Did you have any conversations with 14 Mr. Dubin about that? 15 A. Yes. 03:20:50 16 Q. What was that? 17 A. I told him I reached a settlement. 18 Q. What did he say? 19 A. Good. 20 Q. Anything else you remember? 03:21:05 21 A. No, sir. 22 Q. Have you and Mr. Dubin ever gone back 23 and discussed since February 2007 the call that 24 you've testified about that the three of you -- 25 Mr. Zwirn, Mr. Dubin, and you -- had on the phone 03:21:22 VERITEXT REPORTING COMPANY www.veritext.com EFTA00299299
Page 216 1 Epstein 2 concerning the $80 million? 3 A. Yes. 4 Q. When did you discuss that? 5 A. I've discussed it since November -- 03:21:28 6 sorry, since February 2007. 7 Q. With Mr. Dubin? 8 A.

Did you ever ask Mr. Dubin to contact 03:21:48 16 Mr. Gruss for you? 17 A. I might have. 18 Q. Did he? 19 A. I don't know. 20 Q. Let me show you a document, please, 03:21:59 21 which is Exhibit 11. 22 (Exhibit 11, e-mails with attachment, 23 marked for identification.) 24 Q. That's an e-mail chain with the top 25 e-mail being from you to Mr. Dubin dated December 03:23:00 VERITEXT REPORTING COMPANY www.veritext.com EFTA00299300
Page 217 1 Epstein 2 6, 2009, enclosing -- attaching an e-mail from 3 Mr. Dubin to you and another one from you to 4 Mr. Dubin. 5 Do you recall these? 03:23:22 6 A. I see them now. 7 Q. You see the bottom e-mail, Jeffrey 8 Epstein to Glenn Dubin Sunday, December 6, 2009, 9 2:05? 10 A. Yes, sir. 03:23:32 11 Q. Do you recall sending that? 12 A. I sent it. 13 Q. Do you recall sending that? 14 A. No, not really. 15 Q. It's cc'd to Mr. Glenn Dubin and 03:23:40 16 Mr. Susman; is that correct? 17 A. Yes. 18 Q. Does this refresh your recollection 19 that you in fact asked Mr. Dubin to meet with 20 Perry Gruss and put questions to him? 03:23:53 21 A. No, sir. 22 Q. Did Mr. Dubin ever get back to you with 23 answers to these questions? 24 A. I don't recall. 25 Q. Well, he says in his response to you: 03:24:09 VERITEXT REPORTING COMPANY www.veritext.com EFTA00299301
Page 218 1 Epstein 2 I'll get e-let you know how it goes. Did he ever 3 let you know how it went? 4 A. I'm sorry, I only have 5 Q. He responds. 03:24:26 6 A. Okay. 7 Q. The top of your e-mail is his response. 8 A. I see it. 9 Q. Did he ever tell you how it went? 10 A. I don't think so. 03:24:34 11 Q. And then you asked him whether to 12 find out whether he would agree to meet with you 13 or your lawyers. 14 A. That's correct. 15 Q. Did Mr. Dubin ever tell you whether 03:24:45 16 Mr. Gruss had agreed to do that? 17 A. I think -- I think we decided at that 18 time it was not a good idea. 19 Q. "We" being who? 20 A. Me. 03:25:05 21 Q. Why? 22 A. I don't recall. 23 Q. Why was it a good idea recently but not 24 a good idea in 2009? 25 A. My best recollection is that the -- 03:25:15 VERITEXT REPORTING COMPANY www.veritext.com EFTA00299302
Page 219 1 Epstein 2 Perry Gruss was still at this point being 3 investigated by the SEC, and I thought maybe, on 4 further reflection, it would be a good idea to 5 meet with him at that time. 03:25:39 6 Q. You met with Perry Gruss before he 7 received word that he was going to be charged by 8 the SEC; is that correct? 9 A. That was more than a year after this 10 was written. 03:25:47 11 Q. But before he was charged; correct? 12 A. Correct. 13 Q. And so as far as you knew, he was still 14 under investigation by the SEC; is that correct? 15 A. I gave it little thought. 03:25:54 16 Q. So in 2009 you thought it might not be 17 a good idea because he might still be under 18 investigation by the SEC; correct? 19 A. Correct. 20 Q. And in 2011 or 2010 it was okay 03:26:05 21 A. '11. 22 Q. -- even though he still might be under 23 investigation by the SEC? 24 A. 2011. 25 Q. What had changed? 03:26:17 VERITEXT REPORTING COMPANY www.veritext.com EFTA00299303

I don't think so. 9 Q. Take any notes of your conversation 10 with Perry Gruss? 03:26:29 11 A. No. 12 Q. I take it you don't take notes? 13 A. Yes, that's correct. 14 Q. Doesn't go with impatience? 15 A. Correct. 03:26:38 16 Q. Did you ever meet with any other 17 potential witnesses in this case other than those 18 that work for you? 19 A. You'll have to give me a list. I'm 20 sorry, I don't know who the potential witnesses 03:27:01 21 are. 22 Q. Did you ever meet with anybody else 23 about this case other than people who work for you 24 or Mr. Dubin? 25 A. Again? 03:27:08 VERITEXT REPORTING COMPANY www.veritext.com EFTA00299304
Page 221 1 Epstein 2 Q. Did you ever meet with any -- put aside 3 your lawyers. Did you ever meet with anybody else 4 about this case other than people who work for you 5 or Mr. Dubin? 03:27:17 6 A.

That were produced in this case? 15 A. Yes, sir. 03:28:54 16 Q. Is that where you know about the 17 lawsuit from? 18 A. Yes, sir. 19 Q. Now, you've told us that Mr. Dubin told 20 you that he was misled by Mr. Zwirn; correct? 03:29:04 21 A. Correct. 22 Q. How many times did he tell you that? 23 A. More than five, less than a hundred. 24 Q. So I take it it was a frequent topic of 25 conversation after February 2007? 03:29:19 VERITEXT REPORTING COMPANY www.veritext.com EFTA00299306
Page 223 1 Epstein 2 A. He might have said it repeatedly in the 3 same conversation. 4 Q. It was fair to say he was angry? 5 A. Fair. 03:29:29 6 Q. And did he tell you specifically the 7 things that he personally was misled about? 8 A. I believe I testified to that this 9 morning. 10 Q. I would like to list the things that 03:29:46 11 Mr. Dubin personally was misled about. 12 MR. SUSMAN: I think that was totally 13 answered this morning right out of the bag. 14 That was the first -- 15 MR. SCHWARTZ: Then I'm going back and 03:30:03 16 getting more detail. I don't think I asked 17 that question. 18 MR. SIFFERT: Mr. Susman, it will take 19 longer to do that. 20 MR. SCHWARTZ: It's my deposition, and 03:30:12 21 I've asked the question. It's a question I 22 have not asked before, and I would like an 23 answer to it. 24 He testified about a single 25 conversation this morning. I did not go into 03:30:18 VERITEXT REPORTING COMPANY www.veritext.com EFTA00299307
Page 224 1 Epstein 2 detail and ask him follow-ups. Nor did I ask 3 him about any of the other between 10 and 100 4 conversations in which Mr. Dubin might have 5 said this. 03:30:29 6 Q. In any of those conversations, did he 7 tell you specifically the things that he was 8 misled about as opposed to things that he thought 9 you may have been misled about? 10 A. The purchase of the airplane. 03:30:38 11 Q. How did he tell you he was misled about 12 that? 13 A. He said if he would have known about 14 the airplane he would have taken all his money out 15 right away. 03:30:48 16 Q. And when did he tell you he knew about 17 the airplane for the first time? 18 A. I don't specifically recall. 19 Q. Do you have any reason to believe that 20 he knew about the airplane before you did? 03:31:00 21 A. Yes. 22 Q. And what is that? 23 A. I think it was Glenn that told me about 24 the airplane. 25 Q. And do you have any reason to believe 03:31:08 VERITEXT REPORTING COMPANY www.veritext.com EFTA00299308
Page 225 1 Epstein 2 that Mr. Dubin found out about the airplane at or 3 about the same time that Mr. Zwirn did? 4 A. No. 5 Q. Would you believe that he would not 03:31:21 6 from what he told you? 7 A. Yes. 8 Q. What else did he tell you he was misled 9 about? 10 A. He told me basic -- in general terms, 03:31:28 11 again, that he was misled by Dan Zwirn about most 12 things, that Dan Zwirn didn't know how to tell the 13 truth. 14 Q. I'm asking specifically. 15 A. Okay. That the fact that there was a 03:31:38 16 monstrous cash shortage and that the fund was 17 really totally illiquid, that there had been -- so 18 he was misled about that. 19 Q. Anything else? 20 A. Yes. The -- I believe he had told me 03:31:58 21 that the same concept of he was initially told the 22 thing was immaterial and turned out to be 23 material. I'm sorry. 24 Q. I'm sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt 25 you. 03:32:11 VERITEXT REPORTING COMPANY www.veritext.com EFTA00299309
Page 226 1 Epstein 2 A. Okay. 3 Q. I think you just finished saying, "I 4 believe he told me the same concept of he was 5 initially told the thing was immaterial and turned 03:32:18 6 out to be material." 7 A. That's correct. 8 Q. Did he tell you that he would have been 9 aware that Schulte Roth had been asked to look 10 into the airplane? 03:32:25 11 A. Yes. 12 MR. SUSMAN: I think you asked him to 13 make a list. Why don't you let him make a 14 list. 15 MR. SCHWARTZ: That's fine. 03:32:36 16 MR. SUSMAN: So you don't say later you 17 forgot to tell me something. 18 Q. Anything else in the list, sir? 19 A. The concept was the funds were illiquid 20 and that in fact badly managed, that the -- sort 03:32:47 21 of the concept of the fear of being run on the 22 bank was really a fear that they didn't have the 23 liquidity to make my first $80 million withdrawal, 24 that the airplane was -- the money was taken from 25 the Highbridge-managed account. 03:33:07 VERITEXT REPORTING COMPANY www.veritext.com EFTA00299310
Page 227 1 Epstein 2 And had he known that there was funny 3 business -- that, again, the dollar value might 4 have been immaterial. But the fact that monies 5 were purloined from the clients' account was 03:33:21 6 extremely material, and had he known that he would 7 have taken and advised me to take all my money out 8 as soon as he found out about it. 9 Q. Anything else? 10 A. Not that I can recall. 03:33:43 11 Q. Did he tell you that he was surprised 12 to find out that the fund had -- that the funds' 13 investments were almost all in illiquid 14 investments? 15 A. No. 03:33:52 16 Q. Did he tell you that he knew that they 17 were in illiquid investments? 18 A. No. 19 Q. Nor did he tell you that in 2002; 20 correct? 03:34:07 21 A. The concept of -- what he told me was 22 the fact that some of your investments are 23 illiquid has little bearing on the fact of the 24 fund itself being illiquid. The fact that a 25 responsible fiduciary would never have their 03:34:22 VERITEXT REPORTING COMPANY www.veritext.com EFTA00299311
Page 228 1 Epstein 2 entire portfolio in only illiquid investments and 3 no liquidity. 4 So the concept it's an issue of 5 proportion. The concept was they had maxed out 03:34:33 6 their fund early. 7 Q. Did he tell you when he used the phrase 8 "illiquid" what he meant? 9 A. They didn't have the money to pay me 10 back. 03:34:47 11 Q. They didn't have the money to pay you 12 back when? 13 A. Even the first time that Dan Zwirn 14 convinced him to have him convince me to reduce my 15 initial demand from the entire amount to 80 03:35:00 16 million. 17 Q. Did he ever tell you what his view of 18 the lockup period for the funds was? 19 A. No. 20 Q. Did he ever tell you that he was aware 03:35:26 21 that the fund was maintaining investments in 22 lockups on an investment-by-investment basis as 23 opposed to on an investor-by-investor basis? 24 A. No. 25 Q. Would you be surprised to hear that he 03:35:38 VERITEXT REPORTING COMPANY www.veritext.com EFTA00299312
Page 229 1 Epstein 2 knew that? 3 A. No. 4 Q. Why? 5 A. You asked me if I'd be surprised. 03:35:50 6 Q. And I asked you why. 7 A. not surprised by anything anymore. 8 Q. Because your view of Mr. Dubin has 9 changed over time? 10 A. No. I just don't get surprised. 03:35:59 11 Q. Were you involved in obtaining an 12 affidavit from Mr. Dubin for this litigation? 13 A. I asked Glenn if he would provide an 14 affidavit. 15 Q. In fact, you sent him the affidavit you 03:36:24 16 wanted him to provide; right? 17 A. No. 18 MR. SCHWARTZ: Exhibit 12, please. 19 (Exhibit 12, document on Epstein 20 letterhead, marked for identification.) 03:37:00 21 Q. I ask you to look at Exhibit 12. 22 A. Yes. 23 Q. Is this document on your letterhead? 24 A. Yes, sir. 25 Q. This is one of your homes in Palm 03:37:10 VERITEXT REPORTING COMPANY www.veritext.com EFTA00299313
Page 230 1 Epstein 2 Beach? 3 A. Yes, sir. 4 Q. And Lesly Groff is your personal 5 assistant? 03:37:18 6 A. Yes, sir. 7 Q. Did you send a draft of the affidavit 8 from Mr. Dubin to sign? 9 A. No, sir. 10 Q. Did Ms. Groff? 03:37:31 11 A. Yes, sir. 12 Q. And did you request her to do that, 13 sir? 14 A. I don't think so. 15 Q. So she would write, Jeffrey requested I 03:37:41 16 send you the attached, even though you had not 17 requested her to do that? 18 A. Yes. 19 Q. She did that on her own initiative? Is 20 that your testimony? 03:37:53 21 A. My testimony is that I did not ask her 22 to do it. 23 Q. Well, can you explain to me why she 24 would do it if you didn't ask her to do it? 25 A. No. 03:38:03 VERITEXT REPORTING COMPANY www.veritext.com EFTA00299314
Page 231 1 Epstein 2 Q. Did you read this affidavit before 3 Mr. Dubin signed it? 4 A. I don't believe so. 5 Q. Did you ever see it before Mr. Dubin 03:38:21 6 signed it? 7 A. I could have. 8 Q. But you do not believe that on or about 9 February 2nd, 2010, you requested that she send 10 this affidavit to Mr. Dubin? 03:38:36 11 A. That's correct. 12 Q. Did you have a conversation with 13 Mr. Dubin about the affidavit before it was sent 14 to him, before February 10th, or on February 10th? 15 A. Again? 03:39:17 16 Q. Did you have a conversation with 17 Mr. Dubin about the affidavit before he executed 18 it? 19 A. Yes. 20 Q. How many conversations? 03:39:24 21 A. Probably less than five. 22 Q. Did you discuss with him what should go 23 into the affidavit? 24 A. No. 25 Q. What did you discuss with him? 03:39:37 VERITEXT REPORTING COMPANY www.veritext.com EFTA00299315
Page 232 1 Epstein 2 A. I asked him if he would file an 3 affidavit in this case. 4 Q. And you mentioned that to him less than 5 five times, but that's in essence what you said to 03:39:45 6 him? 7 A. Yes. 8 Q. And he said he would? 9 A. Yes. 10 Q. Who drafted the affidavit? 03:39:50 11 A. I don't know. 12 Q. Was it drafted by your counsel? 13 A. I don't know. 14 Q. Do you know how it arrived at your Palm 15 Beach home? 03:39:58 16 A. I don't know if it arrived at my Palm 17 Beach home. 18 Q. Do you know how it arrived in your 19 personal assistant's hands? 20 A. No. 03:40:10 21 Q. Mr. Dubin told you that if he had known 22 about the airplane he would have pulled his money 23 out; correct? 24 A. Correct. 25 Q. And in the phone call in October or 03:40:22 VERITEXT REPORTING COMPANY www.veritext.com EFTA00299316
Page 233 1 Epstein 2 November that you and Mr. Dubin and -- that you 3 had with Mr. Dubin about withdrawing your funds, 4 you asked him if he was going to keep his money in 5 the account; correct? 03:40:36 6 A. I asked him if he was keeping 7 Highbridge's money in the account. 8 Q. And he said he was; correct? 9 A. Yes. 10 MR. SCHWARTZ: Give me just a second, 03:41:02 11 sir. 12 THE WITNESS: Sure. 13 (Pause.) 14 Q. Let me show you Exhibit 12 -- 13. 15 (Exhibit 13, memorandum dated 2/13/08 03:42:25 16 with fax cover sheet, marked for 17 identification.) 18 Q. You see Exhibit 13 is a fax from 19 JEEPERS to Dan Zwirn attaching a memorandum on 20 JEEPERS' letterhead dated February 13, 2008? 03:42:36 21 A. Yes. 22 Q. Have you seen this before? 23 A. Not to the best of my recollection. 24 Q. Did anyone on or before February 13th, 25 2008, discuss with you the possibility of sending 03:43:08 VERITEXT REPORTING COMPANY www.veritext.com EFTA00299317
Page 234 1 Epstein 2 such a memorandum? 3 A. They might have. 4 Q. Do you have any recollection? 5 A. No, not sitting here today. 03:43:16 6 Q. Do you have a recollection of 7 discussing it with Mr. Dubin? 8 A. No. 9 Q. Do you have any understanding as to why 10 he's a cc on this? 03:43:26 11 A. All my dealings with Dan Zwirn were 12 through Glenn Dubin, virtually. 13 MR. SCHWARTZ: I am going to pass. I'm 14 done. 15 THE WITNESS: Thank you. 03:43:45 16 MR. SCHWARTZ: Thank you. 17 MR. ARFFA: Do you want me to go? Do 18 you want to take a break? 19 THE WITNESS: No. 20 (Pause.) 03:44:15 21 THE VIDEOGRAPHER: We're going off the 22 record. The time is 3:43 p.m. 23 (Recess taken from 3:43 to 3:45.) 24 THE VIDEOGRAPHER: We are back on the 25 record. The time is 3:45 p.m. 03:46:33 VERITEXT REPORTING COMPANY www.veritext.com EFTA00299318
Page 235 1 Epstein 2 EXAMINATION BY 3 MR. ARFFA: 4 Q. Good afternoon, Mr. Epstein. 5 A. Good afternoon, Mr. Arffa. 03:46:46 6 Q. I'm Alan Arffa. I'm from Paul, Weiss 7 and represent the current manager, as you know, of 8 the fund. 9 A. Yes, sir. 10 Q. Mr. Epstein, you characterize yourself 03:46:54 11 as a sophisticated investor? 12 A. Yes. 13 Q. FTC is the vehicle through which you 14 generally invest or just in this instance? 15 A. Generally, sir. 03:47:06 16 Q. Are you aware that each time you made 17 an investment you executed on behalf of FTC a 18 subscription -- a set of subscription documents? 19 A. No, sir. 20 Q. Let me just mark one of them to show 03:47:21 21 you. 22 (Exhibit 14, subscription document, 23 marked for identification.) 24 Q. So it's your testimony you didn't 25 read have you ever seen Exhibit 14 before 03:47:36 VERITEXT REPORTING COMPANY www.veritext.com EFTA00299319
Page 236 1 Epstein 2 today? 3 A. Yes, sir. 4 Q. Did you read it at the time it was 5 executed in I believe it was late 2002 03:47:42 6 A. No, sir. 7 Q. -- I'm sorry, May of 2002? 8 A. No, sir. 9 MR. SUSMAN: Do you have another copy 10 of that? 03:47:57 11 MR. ARFFA: Sure. 12 (Pause.) 13 Q. Just if you look on page 17, do you 14 recall whether or not you signed the document at 15 the time, which appears to be April 2002? 03:49:15 16 A. I don't recall. 17 Q. Do you know if this is something you 18 signed or Mr. Beller signed for you? 19 A. He could have signed for me 20 Q. I think I may have asked you this 03:49:33 21 already, but do you recall if FTC executed a set 22 of subscription documents each time it made its 23 investments in the fund? 24 A. You've asked me that before. The 25 answer is no. You've asked me that before. The 03:49:45 VERITEXT REPORTING COMPANY www.veritext.com EFTA00299320
Page 237 1 Epstein 2 answer is no, sorry. 3 Q. But in any event are you aware that in 4 these documents, FTC certified that it had in 5 excess of $25 million in investments? 03:49:58 6 A. Yes, sir. 7 Q. And that was true at the time, I 8 assume? 9 A. Yes. 10 Q. So it's true that as of the time of 03:50:08 11 your investments you and FTC had over $25 million 12 in money? 13 A. Yes. 14 Q. I don't want to pry too much, but 15 approximately -- 03:50:18 16 A. Not the word too much. 17 Q. But are you a billionaire? 18 DI MR. SUSMAN: You don't need to answer 19 that question. 20 Q. Do you have hundreds of millions of 03:50:26 21 dollars? 22 A. I have hundreds -- 23 DI MR. SUSMAN: You don't have to answer 24 that question. 25 MR. ARFFA: Well, I believe it is 03:50:30 VERITEXT REPORTING COMPANY www.veritext.com EFTA00299321
Page 238 1 Epstein 2 relevant. 3 MR. SUSMAN: I instructed him not to 4 answer. If you want to call the judge right 5 now, we can do that. 03:50:35 6 MR. ARFFA: I don't want to waste my 7 time right now with that, but we can do it at 8 the hearing. That's fine. 9 MR. SUSMAN: Bet you won't. 10 Q. You said that the -- 03:50:45 11 MR. ARFFA: Oh, I bet I will. 12 MR. SUSMAN: How much? 13 Q. You said that the entity itself was 14 a as I understand when you left Bear Stearns, 15 you started this business -- correct? -- FTC or 03:50:53 16 its predecessor? 17 A. Its predecessor. 18 Q. And that business has, I believe from 19 your prior testimony, since that time, so for 30 20 years or so, been an advisor to wealthy 03:51:07 21 individuals; is that fair? 22 A. That's fair. 23 Q. Does the entity itself then have just 24 your money, just the fees that it earns? 25 A. Yes, sir. 03:51:21 VERITEXT REPORTING COMPANY www.veritext.com EFTA00299322
Page 239 1 Epstein 2 Q. So in other words that entity does not 3 hold money for your clients and invest that money? 4 A. That's correct. 5 Q. So all of the money in FTC is your 03:51:33 6 money? 7 A. That's correct. 8 Q. And it makes its money by charging fees 9 to people for whom it provides investment advice; 10 fair? 03:51:42 11 A. That's correct, sir. 12 Q. Are you a licensed investment advisor? 13 A. No, sir. 14 Q. Do you hold any licenses? 15 A. No, sir. 03:51:48 16 Q. Fair to say by the time you made the 17 investment here you had been working in the 18 financial world for something in the order of 30 19 years? 20 A. Yes, sir. 03:51:59 21 Q. Could you give us a sense of the 22 amounts of money for which you've provided advice, 23 again, very rough number? I'm not going for 24 anything specific. 25 A. Billions of dollars. 03:52:16 VERITEXT REPORTING COMPANY www.veritext.com EFTA00299323
Page 240 1 Epstein 2 Q. Now, the entity FTC we've talked about, 3 are you do you recall your specific title there 4 or position that you hold? 5 A. I believe I'm chairman or president or 03:52:40 6 potentially both. 7 Q. And you are the sole owner, though; 8 correct? 9 A. Yes. It's all my money. 10 Q. Right. 03:52:52 11 And it's incorporated in the British 12 Virgin Islands; correct? 13 A. No. 14 Q. Sorry? 15 A. No. 03:53:02 16 Q. Okay. That's incorporated where? 17 A. United States Virgin Islands. 18 Q. Sorry, correct. U.S. Virgin Islands. 19 U.S. Virgin Islands; correct? 20 A. Yes, sir. 03:53:12 21 Q. JEEPERS also is a wholly owned 22 subsidiary? 23 A. It's a qualified -- I believe it's a 24 qualified sub S, yes. 25 Q. I want to ask you about that. 03:53:22 VERITEXT REPORTING COMPANY www.veritext.com EFTA00299324
Page 241 1 Epstein 2 A. Okay. 3 Q. Just start with the corporation itself 4 is a Virgin Islands corporation; correct? 5 A. It's an LLC, I believe. 03:53:29 6 Q. A Virgin Islands LLC, sorry; correct? 7 A. Yes. 8 Q. I think we've referred a couple times 9 to the fact that it's an S Corp.; is that fair? 10 Or it's a, sorry, subchapter S subsidiary; is that 03:53:48 11 fair? 12 A. You have to ask a better question, III 13 sorry. 14 Q. Okay. Let me just show you this form. 15 (Exhibit 15, document, marked for 03:54:13 16 identification.) 17 A. Yes. 18 Q. You see here it's referred to as a 19 corporation, subsidiary corporation, for which 20 well, let me start have you ever seen this form 03:54:44 21 before. 22 A. I must have. 23 Q. Is that your signature there? 24 A. Yes, it is. 25 Q. JEEPERS, according to this, is a 03:54:51 VERITEXT REPORTING COMPANY www.veritext.com EFTA00299325
Page 242 1 Epstein 2 corporation? Do you see that? JEEPERS, Inc.? 3 A. Yes, sir. 4 Q. At least at this time, let's say, was a 5 corporation; correct? 03:55:02 6 A. Yes. 7 Q. And at least as of that time there was 8 an election made by FTC to treat JEEPERS as a 9 subchapter S subsidiary; correct? 10 A. Correct. 03:55:17 11 Q. And did you understand that was for the 12 purpose of avoiding corporate taxes on that 13 entity; otherwise you'd have to pay corporate 14 taxes on its earnings, and then you'd have to pay 15 taxes on whatever income you received from it; 03:55:28 16 correct? 17 A. I believe so. 18 Q. Could you just look at the assignment 19 that's Exhibit 6. Do you have that? 20 A. Yes, sir. 03:55:51 21 Q. I can't remember, did you say that was 22 your signature or you thought that was someone 23 signing for you on that document? 24 A. It looks like someone signing for me. 25 Q. Could you look at the -- isn't it true 03:56:01 VERITEXT REPORTING COMPANY www.veritext.com EFTA00299326
Page 243 1 Epstein 2 that in the assignment both FTC and JEEPERS in 3 fact represented to the fund that the assignee was 4 not an S corporation or other pass-through entity 5 for New York State income tax purposes? Do you 03:56:18 6 see that on the first page? 7 A. I'm sorry? 8 Q. You see that on the first page in the 9 fourth paragraph? 10 A. Yes. 03:56:28 11 Q. Each of the assignor and assignee does 12 represent that, and if you go to number 3, the 13 assignee is not an S corporation or other 14 pass-through entity for New York State income tax 15 purposes. Do you see that? 03:56:39 16 A. Yes. 17 Q. Isn't that representation inaccurate? 18 A. No. 19 Q. Do you know? 20 A. No, I don't believe so. 03:56:48 21 Q. And why not? 22 A. This is -- this says the U.S. Internal 23 Revenue Code. 24 Q. I'm going to try to talk about some of 25 the subjects we talked about earlier today but 03:57:07 VERITEXT REPORTING COMPANY www.veritext.com EFTA00299327
Page 244 1 Epstein 2 hopefully not repeat them. 3 A. Okay. 4 Q. I was a little unclear on your 5 testimony at the beginning on lockups, sort of the 03:57:25 6 purpose of lockups. You understand that money 7 you've heard of lockups -- you had heard of 8 lockups before you invested in the fund; correct? 9 A. Yes, sir. 10 Q. And you understood the purpose of a 03:57:37 11 lockup from what -- you understand why managers 12 want lockups; correct? 13 A. There are many reasons. 14 Q. Right. One of the reasons would be a 15 manager can have time to implement a particular 03:57:51 16 strategy, for example? 17 A. Correct. 18 Q. And they don't want to have to 19 prematurely -- in their view prematurely exit 20 investments that they've made; correct? 03:58:04 21 A. Correct. 22 Q. And they might have -- I think you said 23 one reason is they may want to buy an -- lease an 24 office space, buy equipment and have expenses and 25 they don't want to have everybody pull out at once 03:58:18 VERITEXT REPORTING COMPANY www.veritext.com EFTA00299328
Page 245 1 Epstein 2 and then they're stuck with all these unnecessary 3 expenses; correct? 4 A. Correct. 5 Q. Now, investors, on the other hand -- 03:58:29 6 A. What? 7 Q. Investors, as opposed to the managers. 8 A. Yes. 9 Q. They would rather be locked up as 10 little as possible; right? 03:58:38 11 A. Different instances, not necessarily. 12 Q. Not necessarily. 13 MR. ARFFA: Can I just mark this. 14 (Exhibit 16, document, marked for 15 identification.) 03:59:15 16 Q. I just want to -- this I just took off 17 a Web site. If you go down to the middle of the 18 page, there's a discussion of lockups, lockup -- 19 it says, Lockups are periods usually commencing 20 from the time of the investment during which 03:59:27 21 investors are precluded from redeeming their 22 investment. Lockups may range from one to three 23 years depending on the liquidity of the underlying 24 investments. 25 Some funds may permit investors to 03:59:38 VERITEXT REPORTING COMPANY www.veritext.com EFTA00299329
Page 246 1 Epstein 2 redeem even during the lockup period provided the 3 investor pays an early redemption charge. All 4 redemption charges paid by exiting investors 5 usually and should accrue to the benefit of the 03:59:49 6 fund in order to compensate the remaining 7 investors for possible harm created by 8 destabilizing the asset base. 9 Now I want to call your attention to 10 the next paragraph: Managers desire lockups in 04:00:00 11 general because a stable asset base eases pressure 12 for smoother return streams for fear that 13 investors may pull capital because of poor short- 14 term results and permits the deployment of capital 15 over longer time horizons. 04:00:14 16 Let me just top you there. Do you 17 agree with that? 18 A. That's what it says. 19 Q. But do you agree with it? Are those 20 reasons that managers desire lockups? 04:00:25 21 A. That's what it says. 22 Q. I'm asking for your opinion as a 23 seasoned, sophisticated investment professional. 24 A. I think managers prefer lockups so that 25 they can be in certain areas assured of getting 04:00:38 VERITEXT REPORTING COMPANY www.veritext.com EFTA00299330
Page 247 1 Epstein 2 their performance fees over a longer period of 3 time. 4 Q. And the second -- is that another 5 reason in addition to the ones you gave me before? 04:00:52 6 A. I think that was in addition -- I think 7 I added that one this morning. I had that as 8 well, sorry. 9 Q. Then the next sentence says, quote, For 10 obvious reasons investors generally desire higher 04:01:04 11 liquidity. Do you see that? 12 A. I see that. 13 Q. Do you agree with that? 14 A. No. 15 Q. No. You think investors generally 04:01:11 16 desire less liquidity? 17 A. No, no. 18 Q. So which is it? They generally desire 19 less or they generally desire higher liquidity? 20 A. I think investors is a very broad 04:01:25 21 category of statements. There are many different 22 types of investors. 23 Q. So some investors prefer to be locked 24 up for long term? 25 A. Very long term. 04:01:35 VERITEXT REPORTING COMPANY www.veritext.com EFTA00299331
Page 248 1 Epstein 2 Q. And some prefer not to be locked up at 3 all? 4 A. That's correct. 5 Q. Is it your testimony, from what you 04:01:39 6 said earlier, you prefer to be locked up for two 7 years? That's your preference? 8 A. No longer than two years. 9 Q. No longer than two years? 10 A. Correct. 04:01:48 11 Q. Would you rather be locked up within 12 the two-year period as little as possible or as 13 close to the two years as possible? 14 A. Every investment's a different 15 investment. 04:01:57 16 Q. So it would depend on the investment? 17 A. That's correct. 18 Q. So some investments you might want to 19 be locked up on a six-month basis; correct? 20 A. Yes. 04:02:07 21 Q. Whereas others you might want to be 22 locked up for two years; correct? 23 A. That's correct. 24 Q. Do you understand when you invest in a 25 hedge fund that each investment that's made has to 04:02:25 VERITEXT REPORTING COMPANY www.veritext.com EFTA00299332
Page 249 1 Epstein 2 be separately tracked and accounted for by the 3 hedge fund? Do you understand what I'm saying? 4 A. No. 5 Q. Let me try it again. Do you know when 04:02:40 6 you invest in a fund that the investment manager 7 has to track the profits and losses and the fees 8 applicable to each investment when it's made? 9 A. No. 10 Q. Okay. Let me take an example. You 04:02:58 11 know hedge fund managers receive fees; correct? 12 A. Yes. 13 Q. And there are management fees that are 14 paid; correct? 15 A. Correct. 04:03:09 16 Q. Those are a percentage of the assets 17 held; it could be 1.5 or 2 percent; correct? 18 A. It could be. 19 Q. And then there are also incentive fees; 20 correct? 04:03:21 21 A. Sometimes. 22 Q. Sometimes. Don't most hedge funds 23 generally have 20 percent incentive fees? 24 A. I don't know what most hedge funds 25 have. 04:03:30 VERITEXT REPORTING COMPANY www.veritext.com EFTA00299333
Page 250 1 Epstein 2 Q. Did you know what Zwirn had when you 3 invested in it? 4 A. I believe it had 20 percent. 5 Q. Meaning they were going to take as a 04:03:37 6 fee 20 percent of the gain correct? -- on the 7 investors fund? 8 A. Yes. 9 Q. So let me get back to my first 10 question, which is don't they have to therefore 04:03:56 11 keep track -- didn't up understand that hedge fund 12 managers have to keep track of each investment in 13 order to properly assess the performance fees? 14 A. No. 15 Q. So you're telling so let's say you 04:04:10 16 invest -- give me -- can I give you an example? 17 A. Please. 18 Q. You invested $10 on January 1st; 19 correct? 20 A. Yes. 04:04:20 21 Q. June 1st it's now worth 20; okay? 22 A. Yes. 23 Q. Now, June 1st you make another 24 investment of 10. 25 A. Yes. 04:04:29 VERITEXT REPORTING COMPANY www.veritext.com EFTA00299334
Page 251 1 Epstein 2 Q. Okay? That investment, the 10, is flat 3 for the rest of the year; okay? In other words, 4 once it goes to 20, they gained a hundred percent, 5 right, that hundred percent gain through June. 04:04:41 6 A. Yes. 7 Q. And then June through December, flat. 8 A. Yes. 9 Q. For the first investment, right -- 10 A. Yes. 04:04:49 11 Q. -- that investment made a hundred 12 percent; right? 13 A. You say made a hundred percent. 14 Q. Received a hundred percent return in 15 that year. 04:04:57 16 A. How are you defining return? 17 Q. They got 10; now it's worth 20. 18 A. Is that a gain? 19 Q. Is that a gain? I guess in my world, 20 yes. I would rather have my counts go up. 04:05:06 21 A. Okay. 22 Q. So isn't it true the manager has to 23 assess is allowed to assess a 20 percent fee, 24 in my example, on the first investor's gain, the 25 10 -- additional 10 they received in that year? 04:05:23 VERITEXT REPORTING COMPANY www.veritext.com EFTA00299335
Page 252 1 Epstein 2 A. Every fund is different. 3 Q. Do you know how the Zwirn hedge fund 4 worked? 5 A. No, not specifically. 04:05:31 6 Q. Do you know if they, in my example, 7 would be able to take the 20 percent fee on the 10 8 gain for investment one? 9 A. I assume you mean if they mispriced the 10 assets so that in fact what was really valued at 04:05:41 11 10 they valued at 20, you're suggesting he was 12 able to take a percentage fee on something that 13 was reported as a value increase as opposed to a 14 gain? 15 A gain is normally a taxable event. So 04:05:53 16 if in fact the stock simply went up from 10 to 20 17 in your example, it isn't necessarily a gain; it's 18 an increase in value. 19 Q. Whether or not it is a real gain, 20 doesn't the hedge fund account for it by taking a 04:06:06 21 fee against that paper gain? 22 A. Every hedge fund's different. 23 Q. Did you know how the Zwirn fund worked 24 in that regard? 25 A. No, sir. 04:06:14 VERITEXT REPORTING COMPANY www.veritext.com EFTA00299336
Page 253 1 Epstein 2 Q. And isn't it true in my example 3 investment two, assuming the hundred did work how 4 I'm saying where they take 20 percent on the gain, 5 investment two, which went in in June where you 04:06:26 6 put in 10 and it was still 10 at the end of the 7 year, no fee gets assessed as to that investment; 8 isn't that true? 9 A. You say "that investment." 10 Q. Right, as to that 10. 04:06:37 11 A. Every hedge fund is different. 12 Q. In my example where they are 13 assessing 14 A. You're telling me in your example they 15 don't assess a fee, then they don't assess a fee. 04:06:47 16 Every hedge fund is different. 17 Q. I'm saying assume a world that a hedge 18 fund manager at the end of the fiscal year is 19 allowed to assess a 20 percent incentive fee with 20 respect to the profits relating to that 04:07:03 21 investment. Wouldn't they have to track each 22 investment separately? 23 A. In that example, yes. 24 Q. And similarly, in the second for 25 investment two, they wouldn't get any performance 04:07:15 VERITEXT REPORTING COMPANY www.veritext.com EFTA00299337
Page 254 1 Epstein 2 fee -- right? -- it was flat? They wouldn't get 3 the performance incentive. They might get the 4 management fee but not the incentive fee; correct? 5 A. That's correct. 04:07:25 6 Q. Similarly, isn't it true that hedge 7 funds have to track investments separately to 8 understand the losses that may be attributable to 9 that account -- to that investment, sorry? 10 A. Every hedge fund is different. 04:07:41 11 Q. Do you know how the Zwirn fund worked 12 in terms of dealing with losses? 13 A. No, sir. 14 Q. Let's take an example. Let's say you 15 put in 10 at the beginning of the year; okay? 04:07:53 16 A. Yes, sir. 17 Q. At the end of the year, it's 8. You 18 lost money. 19 A. Yes, sir. 20 Q. No investment fee, under my scenario 04:08:01 21 correct? -- no performance fee, sorry, under that 22 scenario -- correct? -- there's a loss? 23 A. That's correct. 24 Q. You put in -- second investment you put 25 in another 10 on that date; okay? 04:08:15 VERITEXT REPORTING COMPANY www.veritext.com EFTA00299338
Page 255 1 Epstein 2 A. Yes. 3 Q. With me? Now, in the second year the 4 fund shows returns of 50 percent, let's call it. 5 So on that first investment that was 8 at the end 04:08:27 6 of year one, that investment's now at 12; right? 7 Do they -- is that correct? Are you with me so 8 far? 9 A. I'm with you. 10 Q. Do you know whether the fund takes 04:08:41 11 can charge -- whether hedge funds generally assess 12 the performance incentive fee on the full 8 to 12 13 rise, the 4, or do they only assess it on the 2 14 from what you originally invested? 15 A. Every hedge fund is different. 04:09:05 16 Q. Do you know how that worked in the 17 Zwirn fund? 18 A. No, sir. 19 Q. Do you know whether the Zwirn fund in 20 fact utilized a concept of a loss recovery account 04:09:12 21 to deal with the kind of situation I was just 22 describing? 23 A. No, sir. 24 Q. And do you know whether the Zwirn fund 25 in fact would only give you the -- would only 04:09:23 VERITEXT REPORTING COMPANY www.veritext.com EFTA00299339
Page 256 1 Epstein 2 assess the fee on the amount that was higher than 3 what you originally put in? 4 A. No, sir. 5 Q. Do you know whether they took into 04:09:32 6 account the losses? 7 A. I don't know what they did. 8 Q. Do you know the concept high watermark? 9 Have you ever heard that in connection with a 10 hedge fund? 04:09:44 11 A. Yes, sir. 12 Q. Okay. What's that? 13 A. It's different for every hedge fund. 14 Q. But the high watermark concept is 15 again -- the same concept I was describing -- 04:09:51 16 right? -- that you look at the high watermark, not 17 maybe how it just did over the last fiscal year, 18 because you may have made money. But if compared 19 to another point in time there were losses, you 20 take those into account; right? 04:10:05 21 A. Yes, sir. 22 Q. And in my example the second investment 23 where you put in the 10, got a 50 percent return 24 at the beginning of the year, then you would get 25 the fee on that fully assessed on the gains on 04:10:19 VERITEXT REPORTING COMPANY www.veritext.com EFTA00299340
Page 257 1 Epstein 2 that investment; correct? 3 A. In your hypothetical, potentially, yes. 4 Q. So didn't you understand -- well, did 5 you or didn't you have any understanding 04:10:29 6 whatsoever as to whether Zwirn fund, Zwirn's fund, 7 because of the way performances fees were assessed 8 and gains and losses were allocated, was tracking 9 separately each investment for the reasons I've 10 just described? Did you have any concept of that? 04:10:48 11 A. No, sir. 12 Q. Did you ever discuss that with anyone? 13 A. No, sir. 14 Q. And never asked anybody about anything? 15 A. No, sir. 04:10:56 16 Q. Do you recall there was a point in time 17 where a one-year plus option was added to the 18 fund; do you recall that? 19 A. No, sir. 20 Q. Do you recall declining to take the 04:11:06 21 one-year plus -- it was a redemption option where 22 at the end of the year investors were given an 23 option to say, okay, I want -- you can redeem me 24 in one year but it's fixed at whatever's in the 25 fund attributable to me and I have to -- I don't 04:11:24 VERITEXT REPORTING COMPANY www.veritext.com EFTA00299341
Page 258 1 Epstein 2 actually get it all in one year; I get it as those 3 investments are sold off, but it's frozen in time 4 at that point. 5 Do you recall that option? 04:11:36 6 A. No, sir. 7 Q. And you don't recall discussing that 8 with anyone? 9 A. No, sir. 10 Q. Do you know who declined it on your 04:11:40 11 behalf? 12 A. No, sir. 13 Q. You don't recall signing something? 14 A. No, sir. 15 Q. You don't recall discussing it with 04:11:47 16 anyone? 17 A. No, sir. 18 Q. You certainly don't recall ever being 19 under the impression that that option applied to 20 you; is that fair? 04:11:56 21 A. Never discussed it. 22 Q. And I take it you had no -- I take it 23 from what you said earlier today you didn't have 24 an understanding that the lockups at the Zwirn 25 fund were applied by the investment -- on an 04:12:21 VERITEXT REPORTING COMPANY www.veritext.com EFTA00299342
Page 259 1 Epstein 2 investment-by-investment basis; correct? 3 A. That's correct. 4 Q. I think you already went through you 5 had a discussion about that with Mr. -- was it 04:12:33 6 Dubin? 7 A. Yes, sir. 8 Q. And Mr. Dubin told you it would always 9 be whatever the first investment was? 10 A. That was my understanding. 04:12:42 11 Q. Okay. So even if you put your money in 12 a year and a half later, it was always -- the 13 redemption right was always triggered by the two 14 years from the initial investment? 15 A. Yes, sir. 04:12:55 16 Q. What understanding, if any, did you 17 have about other investors in the fund? Do you 18 know whether they had lockups by investment? 19 A. The only time I believe I understood 20 anything about any other investors was when they 04:13:12 21 said before that January 11th, '05, letter that 22 when other investors would have a three-year 23 lockup that I would not continue to be involved in 24 the fund unless I continued to have only a two- 25 year lockup. 04:13:27 VERITEXT REPORTING COMPANY www.veritext.com EFTA00299343
Page 260 1 Epstein 2 Q. But other than that -- 3 A. No. 4 Q. -- before that memo -- 5 A. No, sir. 04:13:32 6 Q. -- did you have any understanding 7 whether their lockup were by investments or the 8 initial date when they first put in money? 9 A. No, sir. 10 Q. You never discussed that with anyone? 04:13:44 11 A. No, sir. 12 Q. Did you think it was important to 13 understand whatever the redemption rights were? 14 A. No, sir. Separate from the fact they 15 could not be locked up for more than two years. 04:13:57 16 Q. That was important to you? 17 A. Yes. 18 Q. You didn't want to go beyond two? 19 A. That's correct. 20 Q. Had you previously invested in any 04:14:07 21 hedge funds that had lockups? 22 A. I don't recall. 23 Q. Do you recall whether you invested in 24 hedge funds that definitely did not have lockups? 25 A. Yes. 04:14:18 VERITEXT REPORTING COMPANY www.veritext.com EFTA00299344
Page 261 1 Epstein 2 Q. Did you do any research on lockups when 3 you made this investment? 4 A. No, sir. 5 Q. Have you ever done any research on 04:14:25 6 lockups? 7 A. No, sir. 8 Q. Okay. I think you've mentioned a 9 couple times -- you just mentioned again -- that 10 at some point you learned that there was a switch 04:14:41 11 to a three-year lockup; correct? 12 A. Yes, sir. 13 Q. And you didn't like that; right? 14 A. Yes, sir. 15 Q. You wanted to be relieved of that; 04:14:51 16 fair? 17 A. "Relieved" is a word -- 18 Q. You didn't want that. 19 A. I wouldn't agree to it. 20 Q. You didn't want that to apply to you? 04:15:02 21 A. That's correct. 22 Q. By the way, do you recall there being a 23 switch in the fee, the management fee, from 1.5 to 24 2 and you also asked that that stay with 1.5? 25 A. Initially, yes. 04:15:14 VERITEXT REPORTING COMPANY www.veritext.com EFTA00299345
Page 262 1 Epstein 2 Q. And do you recall that was was that 3 around the same time as this two- to three-year 4 change? 5 A. I don't remember. 04:15:22 6 Q. But you did ask it stay at 1.5? 7 A. Correct. 8 Q. Let's see. When you learned about the 9 three-year lockup and you said, I just want two, 10 is that something you said to Mr. Dubin? This is 04:15:41 11 now the end of 2002, beginning of '05 -- I'm 12 sorry, end of 2004, beginning of '05. 13 A. Yes, sir. 14 Q. That refreshes your recollection. 15 To whom did you express this view: No, 04:15:56 16 I'm staying at a two-year lockup? 17 A. To Mr. Dubin as well as my in-house 18 people. 19 Q. I'm sorry if this was asked before. 20 Had Mr. Dubin approached -- this was -- eventually 04:16:12 21 became a $20 million investment; correct? 22 January in January 1 of '05, you invested 20 23 million added $20 million to the fund; correct? 24 A. Correct. 25 Q. And that $20 million investment, was 04:16:26 VERITEXT REPORTING COMPANY www.veritext.com EFTA00299346
Page 263 1 Epstein 2 that something that -- I think you testified 3 earlier Mr. Dubin recommended to you; fair? 4 A. Yes. 5 Q. And when he recommended it, did you 04:16:39 6 say, Okay, but it's got to stay on a two-year 7 cycle? 8 A. Yes. 9 Q. And do you know whether he went back to 10 Mr. Zwirn and got approval for that? 04:16:54 11 A. I don't recall. 12 Q. So you didn't have any direct 13 discussions with Mr. Zwirn about the two-year 14 lockup for that money? 15 A. No. 04:17:04 16 Q. Did you have any discussion with anyone 17 else at Zwirn about that money? 18 A. No. 19 Q. Do you know whether any of your other 20 employees had any discussion with Zwirn about that 04:17:16 21 January 1, '05, investment? 22 A. Yes. 23 Q. And that was the -- and then there was 24 a side letter -- this was the genesis of the side 25 letter; correct? 04:17:44 VERITEXT REPORTING COMPANY www.veritext.com EFTA00299347
Page 264 1 Epstein 2 A. I believe so. 3 MR. SUSMAN: It's time for a pit stop. 4 MR. ARFFA: Oh, okay. 5 THE VIDEOGRAPHER: Stand by. We're 04:17:53 6 going off the record. The time is 4:14 p.m. 7 This is the end of Tape 5. 8 (Recess taken from 4:14 to 4:24.) 9 THE VIDEOGRAPHER: We are back on the 10 record. The time is 4:24 p.m. This is the 04:25:26 11 beginning of Tape Number 6. 12 Q. Mr. Epstein, when is the first time you 13 recall ever learning that at least the Zwirn fund 14 was taking the position that in fact a two-year 15 lockup applied with respect to each of your 04:25:48 16 investments separately? 17 A. February of '07. 18 MR. ARFFA: Can you mark this as the 19 next. 20 (Exhibit 17, e-mail dated 11/13/06 from 21 Zwirn to Dubin, marked for identification.) 22 Q. I want to show you Exhibit 17. I 23 understand this wasn't to you. It's from Dan 24 Zwirn to Glenn Dubin on November 13, 2006. 25 A. Yes. 04:26:33 VERITEXT REPORTING COMPANY www.veritext.com EFTA00299348
Page 265 1 Epstein 2 Q. And it says, Spoke calmly as possible 3 to Harry 4 A. Yes. 5 Q. -- re the facts of lockups, et cetera. 04:26:37 6 A. Yes. 7 Q. Would be very good for you to call 8 Jeffrey. 9 Do you see that? 10 A. Yes, sir. 04:26:44 11 Q. Do you recall -- I mean, does this 12 refresh your recollection that maybe in fact much 13 earlier, somewhere around November of 2006, if not 14 earlier, but certainly on November 13 Dan Zwirn 15 had walked Harley Beller through the different 04:27:00 16 lockups the fund believed applied with respect to 17 your investments? 18 A. No. This -- my best recollection 19 MR. SUSMAN: Whoa. No question. 20 A. No. 04:27:14 21 MR. SUSMAN: We want to get out of 22 here. 23 Q. Do you recall having discussion with 24 anyone at or around this time, the time of this 25 e-mail, November of 2006, about how exactly the 04:27:21 VERITEXT REPORTING COMPANY www.veritext.com EFTA00299349
Page 266 1 Epstein 2 fund believed the redemptions the two-year 3 lockup worked with respect to your investments? 4 A. Again, I'm sorry? 5 Q. Do you recall having a discussion with 04:27:38 6 anyone around this time, which is November of 7 2006, about how exactly the fund believed the 8 two-year lockup worked with respect to your 9 investments? 10 A. Yes. 04:27:53 11 Q. Okay. And what discussion do you 12 recall? 13 A. This was -- this was regarding the $53 14 million. 15 Q. You're saying by this time -- by the 04:28:05 16 time Mr. Zwirn called and walked Harry Beller 17 through, you had already made your decision that 18 you were taking out 80 and you were leaving in a 19 53? 20 A. That's correct. 04:28:23 21 Q. And you had conveyed to Mr. Beller and 22 to Mr. Dubin and through Mr. Dubin to Mr. Zwirn? 23 A. Not through Mr. Dubin. Mr. Zwirn was 24 on the phone. 25 Q. Okay. And you believe this happened 04:28:32 VERITEXT REPORTING COMPANY www.veritext.com EFTA00299350
Page 267 1 Epstein 2 after the phone call? 3 A. Yes. 4 Q. Do you recall what they said at that 5 time about how the remaining 53 would be handled? 04:28:45 6 A. There would be some lockups. 7 Q. Do you recall whether it was one or 8 two? 9 A. There would just be some lockups on the 10 53. 04:28:56 11 Q. And do you recall how -- you made a 12 number of different investments -- correct? -- in 13 the fund; is that fair? Hello? 14 A. Yes. 15 Q. Do you recall which of that 80, how was 04:29:08 16 that 80 going to be allocated? Did you have a 17 discussion as to was the 80 coming from the 18 earlier investments or the later investments? 19 A. I think I've given you my best 20 recollection of the phone calls how it would be 04:29:20 21 made. 22 Q. To be clear, you don't recall any 23 discussion like on the subject I was, like where 24 was the 80 going to be coming from? 25 A. That's correct. 04:29:32 VERITEXT REPORTING COMPANY www.veritext.com EFTA00299351
Page 268 1 Epstein 2 Q. Which investments it was going to be 3 coming from? 4 A. No, sir. 5 Q. And you don't exactly recall the 04:29:39 6 lockups to which you were subject going forward on 7 the 53? 8 A. No. 9 Q. Putting aside the discussion that you 10 had with Mr. Epstein and Mr. Zwirn, what was your 04:30:21 11 understanding as to the 80? Was that available at 12 that time or was that subject to lockups, absent 13 that communication? 14 A. I want to be kind to you. I didn't 15 have a conversation with Mr. Epstein. 04:30:37 16 Q. I'm sorry. Let me try that again. 17 Good point. 18 A. Okay. 19 Q. Putting aside your discussion with 20 Mr. Dubin and Mr. Zwirn, what was your 04:30:44 21 understanding as to the 80? Was that available at 22 that time or was it subject to lockups had you 23 never had that conversation you say you had with 24 Dubin and Zwirn? 25 A. My understanding was that I was going 04:31:00 VERITEXT REPORTING COMPANY www.veritext.com EFTA00299352
Page 269 1 Epstein 2 to get my $80 million. There was a problem at the 3 fund. In fact, to some extent it was -- it was 4 never discussed about which tranche. It was $80 5 million. 04:31:17 6 Q. But had you not had that conversation 7 earlier in the day before the conversation, before 8 you had any conversation with Dubin and Zwirn or 9 Dubin or Zwirn, did you believe the 80 was there 10 for you or was it subject to some kind of lockups? 04:31:30 11 A.
