Dear Adam:
This is to confirm and constitute the agreement between Adam Bly ("Sly") and
Jeffrey Epstein ("Epstein") with respect to the terms and conditions under which Epstein
will grant Bly a forbearance on Bly's payment of the obligation of Bly to, and judgment
against Bly in favor of, Epstein, the outstanding balance of which is in the amount of
$300,000, plus accrued interest as hereinafter set forth (the "Obligation"). With respect to
Epstein's forbearance on Bly's payment of the Obligation, Bly and Epstein have agreed as
follows:
1.
In consideration of Bly's payment to Epstein of the Prior Collection Costs (as
hereinafter defined) and Interest (as hereinafter defined) on the Obligation as and when
hereinafter provided, Epstein will grant Bly a forbearance on Bly's payment of the
Obligation for the period commencing on November 12, 2013 and continuing through and
including November 12, 2014, upon, subject to and in accordance with terms and conditions
set forth in this agreement.
2.
Sly acknowledges that Epstein previously granted Bly a forbearance on the
collection of the Obligation for the period December 12, 2012 through November 12, 2013
in consideration of certain payments which were then to be made during that prior
forbearance period pursuant a written forbearance agreement between Bly and Epstein
(the "1st Forbearance Agreement"). Prior to the parties' execution of the 1st Forbearance
Agreement, as a result of Bly's failure to pay the Obligation, Epstein was required to take
steps to collect on the Obligation, including, but not limited to, retaining a collection
attorney, and requesting the New York City Marshal to effect an income execution with
respect to the Obligation. After the parties executed the 1st Forbearance Agreement, Sly
requested that Epstein cause the New York City Marshal to rescind the income execution.
Epstein's total costs in retaining and paying for the services of the collection attorney, and
in paying the New York City Marshal reduced poundage, which the Marshal demanded to be
paid prior to rescinding the income execution, amounted to $16,700, representing $7,500 of
attorneys fees and $9,200.00 in reduced poundage (the "Prior Collection Costs"). Pursuant
to the loan documentation evidencing the Obligation, Bly is responsible for all of Epstein's
costs of collection, including but not limited to the Prior Collection Costs. In consideration
1
EFTA00616097
of Epstein's forbearance on collection pursuant to this Agreement, Epstein and Bly Agree
that Bly shall pay the Prior Collection Costs in two equal installments of $8,350 each,
payable on December 12, 2013 and January 12, 2014, respectively.
3.
In further consideration of Epstein's forbearance hereunder, Bly also agrees
to pay Epstein interest on the Obligation in the amount of 18% per annum, based on a
calendar year of 365 days, so that the total interest payable for the period of forbearance
hereunder (through and including November 12, 2014) shall be in the amount of $54,000
(the "Interest"). The Interest shall be due and payable by Bly to Epstein as follows:
(a)
Bly shall pay Epstein the sum of $3,000 per month on the 12th day of
each month beginning on December 12, 2013 and continuing on the 12th day of each month
thereafter through and including November 12, 2014.
(b)
Bly shall make 4 payments to Epstein of $4,500 each on each of
February 12, 2014, May 12, 2014, August 12, 2014, and November 12, 2014.
4.
The breach by Bly of any agreement, representation or warranty hereunder,
including, but not limited to, the failure of Bly to make any payment due and payable
hereunder as and when due within five days after Epstein gives Bly notice of non-payment
shall be a breach of this Agreement. Upon the occurrence of any such breach, Epstein's
agreement, and any obligation hereunder, to forbear will terminate, and Epstein shall be
free to pursue all available remedies of collection and enforcement for the full amount of the
Obligation, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon at the rate of 24% per annum from
November 12, 2013 through and including the date on which the full amount of the
Obligation and all such accrued but unpaid interest is paid in full. Nothing provided herein
shall modify, terminate, restrict or vitiate in any manner the judgment against Sly that gave
rise to the Obligation, any lien against Bly or his assets in respect of such judgment, or,
subject to the forbearance provided for in this Agreement, Epstein's ability to pursue
enforcement of or collection of such lien and judgment. In the event that it becomes
necessary to enforce the provisions of this Agreement against Bly in order to collect any
amounts due hereunder, Bly shall be liable to Epstein for all costs of such enforcement,
including, without limitation, attorneys fees and disbursements, which costs, when incurred
shall be deemed to be additions to the Obligation and shall accrue interest at the rate of
24% per annum.
5.
Each notice or other communication (each, a "Notice") to be given under this
Agreement shall be in writing and shall be delivered in person, by email or facsimile
transmission, via reputable overnight courier, or by first class certified mail, return receipt
requested, to the party hereto to which it is directed at the address of that party set forth in
this Agreement.
6.
This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between Bly and Epstein
regarding the matters contained herein. Each party hereto acknowledges that such party
has not executed this Agreement in reliance on any representation, inducement, promise,
agreement, or warranty that is not contained in this Agreement; provided, however, that
nothing provided herein shall be relieve Bly of his unconditional obligation to make any and
all payments required under, and to otherwise comply with, the provisions of the lu
2
EFTA00616098
Forbearance Agreement, which obligations remain in full force and effect and are fully
enforceable by Epstein.
7.
This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the
laws of the United States Virgin Islands applicable to contracts to be performed entirely
therein, without giving effect to the principles of conflict of laws applicable therein. Each of
the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction
of any court sitting in St. Thomas, United States Virgin Islands over any proceeding arising
out of or relating to this Agreement. Each party hereto agrees that service of any process,
summons, notice or document in the manner provided herein for the giving of Notices shall
be effective service of process for any court proceeding arising out of or relating to this
Agreement. Each party hereto irrevocably and unconditionally waives any objection to the
laying of venue of any such court proceeding and any claim that any such proceeding has
been brought in an inconvenient forum. Each party hereto agrees that a final, non-
appealable judgment in any such court proceeding shall be conclusive and binding upon
such party and may be enforced in any other courts to whose jurisdiction such party is or
may be subject, by suit upon judgment
If the provisions of this letter correctly state the agreement between Bly and
Epstein, please so indicate by signing this letter in the space provided below, whereupon
the provisions of this letter shall become a binding and enforceable agreement between Bly
and Epstein.
Sincerely,
Agreed to and accepted by:
Adam Bly
