Subject: RE: Art Partnership
Jeffrey,
My understanding is that Heather spoke with Jeffrey Haber (last May) about arranging for a new fine arts insurance policy
for AP Narrows LP. He told her that it would be extremely difficult to obtain a new policy for AP Narrows because of
capacity issues. Apparently, there are a number of insurance companies already providing insurance on the Black
collection at 760 Park Avenue and in Jeffrey Haber's opinion, none of them would be willing to take on primary liability for
AP Narrows' art.
My understanding is that Jeffrey had a very difficult time finding insurance companies willing to provide coverage to APO1
and APO2 summer before last, but that he finally managed to convinced Travelers to take on the $150 million of primary
coverage and he was able to bring in five other insurance companies to provide the remaining $450 million in excess
coverage. Jeffrey does not think that Travelers or any of the other companies in the trusts ' insurance "stack" would be
willing to be the primary insurer for AP Narrows. There is also a "stack" of insurance companies providing primary and
excess coverage to Leon (some of which also provide part of the trusts' insurance), but, again, Jeffrey does not believe any
of these companies would be willing to provide primary coverage for AP Narrows.
Brad, Alan, Heather and I discussed this last May and agreed that the best approach to solving this problem would be to
have the partners of AP Narrows agree contractually to each continue to maintain insurance on the works that they are
contributing to AP Narrows. AP Narrows would be added as a "Named Insured" on Leon's policy with respect to the art
that Leon and Narrows are contributing to the partnership, and as a Named Insured on the Trust's policy with respect to
the art that the Trust is contributing to the partnership.
Jeffrey Haber has written a letter for AP Narrows' records describing his decades of experience in the insurance business
and outlining how, in his professional opinion, it would be impractical and almost impossible for AP Narrows to obtain
coverage. This substantiates that AP Narrows acted in a commercially reasonable manner by not obtaining its own
insurance under the circumstances.
Heather is available to respond more specifically to any questions you may have regarding the art insurance for AP
Narrows. Of course, I am always available for discussion as well.

Hi Jeffrey,
Last Thursday, I sent you an email that included all the documents needed to implement the art partnership other
than the first two noted below (see below) which you had previously reviewed. I asked if you wanted to see those
documents but did not hear back from you. I understand from Brad that you do want to see them. Attached are
all of the documents needed to implement the partnership, as follows:
1. Contribution Agreement between LDB and the Partnership (with Schedule A);
2. Contribution Agreement between Narrows Holdings LLC and the Partnership (with Schedule A;
3. Contribution and Subscription Agreement between APO-01 Trust and the Partnership (with Schedule A);
4. APO-01 Trustees Resolution (whereby the Trustees resolve to distribute to the APO-B Trust cash to enable it to
buy the Class B GP interest from Leon);
5. APO-B Trustee Resolution (whereby the Trustee resolves that the trust will purchase the Class B GP Interest
from Leon).
6. Purchase and Sale Agreement (for the purchase of the Class B GP interest)
7. Assignment and Assumption Agreement (assigning the Class B GP interest from Leon to the APO-B Trust);
8. Resolution of Class A GP (amending the Partnership's LP agreement to reflect partners and percentage
ownerships post-sale of the Class B GP interest);
9. Certificate of Amendment to the Certificate of Limited Partnership (amending the Partnership's Delaware filing
to reflect the APO-B Trust as the Class B General Partner);
10. Art Use Agreement (whereby Leon (as a partner) and Debra (as a beneficiary of trusts that are partners) are
permitted rent-free use of partnership owned art); and
11. Art Insurance Agreement (whereby each partner agrees to maintain separate insurance coverage over art it
contributed to the Partnership).
Also attached are the Limited Partnership Agreement of AP Narrows LP and the APO-B Trust Agreement. Please
let me know I you need any other documents or information in order to review the attached documents.
Best regards,
Ada

Good afternoon Jeffrey,
Brad Wechsler
EFTA00643664
Attached are the revised documents needed to implement the art partnership. They await only your approval
before sending them for signature. The revisions were needed in order to include the APO-01 Declaration as a
limited partner in place of APO1 and AP02 (which no longer hold any art). There is also a new insurance
agreement designed to avoid underwriting risk limitations that we are told would prevent the partnership from
obtaining insurance covering its art holdings. The documents that did not change since your sign off last May are
not attached and will not be re-executed (we have been holding the signed document). They are:
1. LDB Contribution Agreement to AP Narrows LP
2. Narrows Holdings Contribution Agreement to AP Narrows LP
I have also not attached the Schedules showing the art to be contributed. Please let me know if you want to see
any of the above referenced documents.
Please let me know if you approve of the attached documents so that I may send them for execution. Of course,
I am happy to answer any questions you may have.
Thank you.
