Dear Mr. Lefcourt: It was a pleasure speaking with you and Ms. Sanchez today. As we discussed, I have attached hereto the subpoenas to J. Epstein Virgin Islands Foundation, Inc., J.

I understand that you are representing these entities for the purpose of accepting service, but the entities may retain different counsel at a later date. None of these entities is a target of the grand jury investigation. The subpoenas call for documentary and electronic information. I have set the date for the return of the items for Tuesday, June 19, 2007. If additional time is needed to complete the document collection, please let me know. If there are any categories for which no documents exist, please ask the Custodian of Records to provide a certificate of nonexistence of records. Thank you again for your assistance. Sincerely, R.
