AGENDA
Date:
May 23, 2013
Re:
Meeting with Eileen, Jeffrey and Ada
I.
2006 Trust Restructuring
A.
Tinting.
Consider whether we hold off on signing until details are complete for the Phase
II substitution of assets.
1.
Avoid a lag period when LDB is not entitled to income—not record owner
on dividend date because Substitution not complete.
2.
Consider making post September 30th distributions of TAI from the
Relevant Companies only and noting this on the R&I agreement.
B.
Structure of Phase II:
Discuss structure of the asset substitution:
1.
Is LDB swapping a promissory note into the 2006 Trust or cash borrowed
from a bank (or a combination)? Explore financing opportunities with
JPM, Deutsche bank and Morgan Stanley?
2.
What are the interest rate to be charged and the repayment terms?
3.
What collateral is to be used (if any) to secure the note?
4.
Determine how LDB will service the debt obligation
C.
Review by Jib Black.
Consider timing of getting him involved.
D.
Unwinding Phase II:
Discuss plan to pay off note between LDB and a grantor trust during his lifetime.
Downside of not doing so:
1.
Possible capital gain to the 2006 Trust of either the full amount of the note
or the outstanding balance on Leon's death.

2.
Gift tax risk-such a large outstanding note would be an audit red flag
a.
Even a 5% undervaluation on a $2 bil asset substitution would be a
taxable gift of $100 million (or a $40 MM gift tax).
b.
Can't file a gift tax return to report the swap and get the SOL
running as this is also a red flag.
E.
Phase III:
Discuss structure of BFP and possible restructuring of it.
Make list for Wendy Duhlman of open questions.
II.

3.

to the beneficiaries).
4.
BFP redeems the interests of the 1997 Trust for cash (need appraisal).
