Re: Request regarding Noam Chomsky

Noam has requested that =e look into a discrepancy on his behalf regarding a RMD distribution made =n January 22, 2015 in the amount of $187,000. He states that he has been unable to determine where these funds went. =n your records, it shows this distribution was made to the Noam Chomsky Re=ocable Trust and then subsequently wired to his checking account. No=m states that a deposit was made into his checking account on that date in the amount of $70,000, but not the full a=ount. We can also see from your records that distributions totalling-4150,000 were made from the Noam Chomsky Revocable Trust during the period=of January 26,2015 — February 4, 2015, which may account for some of these funds, but not the total, and none of =hese distributions show a wire/deposit into the checking account. We=are unable to go any further in our investigation as we have no other reco=ds to check.

Please let me know with =hom on your team I can coordinate to look into this matter so that we can =rovide Noam with full detail into the disbursements associated with the $187,000 RMD. Thank you, in advance, for your as=istance.

We never received any information about this. =id you find out anything?

Sam indicated he would ge= back to me and I did not hear anything further.

That's curious. Could you write again, and=if he doesn't respond quickly we'll have to think about further ac=ion. That's a lot of money to just disappear.

Have you received any response from Bainco about the=missing funds? There surely has been time for them to find the answe=. A lot of money is involved, and if they refuse to give the information, =urther action will be necessary.

I haven't heard from you about this matter yet.=C2 It has been a long time. Can you let me know how things now st=nd.

I will follow up with Sam=today as to the status of his response to my previous request. Beyon= that, I will not be able to assist you in pursuit of any further action against Bain, due to my firm's previously disclosed conflic=.

I hadn't realized that the c=nflict discussed in connection with Gene's proposal extending to pursu=ng the matter of the apparent disappearance of these funds. If Bainc= continues to refuse to provide information, I will then have to pursue ot=er methods.

i suggest you first write max s firm executive committee a=d pen a letter that you would be proud of it is beomes public
