IN THE CIRCUIT COURT OF THE FIFTEENTH JUDICIAL CIRCUIT, IN AND FOR PALM BEACH COUNTY, FLORIDA Complex Litigation, Fla. IL Civ. P. 1.201 Case No. 50 2009CA040800XVOCMB AG JEFFREY EPSTEIN, Plaintiff, V. SCOTT ROTHSTEIN, individually, BRADLEY J. EDWARDS, individually, and L.M., individually, Defendants. I BANKRUPTCY TRUSTEE'S MOTION FOR PROTECTIVE ORDER Pursuant to Rule 1.410, Herbert Stettin, Trustee of the Bankruptcy Estate of Rothstein Rosenfeld Adler, P.A., files this Motion for Protective Order and states: 1. On November 10, 2009, Rothstein Rosenfeld) Adler, P.A. ("RRA") was put into involuntary bankruptcy. That case is pending as In Re Estate of Rothstein Rosenfeld Adler, P,A., On November 20, 2009, Herbert Stettin was appointed Trustee of RRA. On November 30, 2009, an Order for Relief was entered by this Court. 2. On April 16, 2010, Plaintiff caused a subpoena duces tecum to be served on the Trustee for production of documents. A copy of the subpoena duces tecum is annexed hereto as Exhibit A. 3. The Trustee's responsibility under the involuntary bankruptcy filing is to wind- down the business affairs of RRA. In that regard, the Trustee has three (3) people in his employ P4, "R„QER. S INGERMANI v.."" attorneys at law acrd train. ter! Lowder's'.

P. 1.201 and has various professionals whose employment have been approved by the United States Bankruptcy County. 4 . Additionally, Scott Rothstein, who apparently managed the affairs of the law firm, has been criminally charged by the United States of America with various violations of federal law to which he has pled guilty. Associated with those charges, the United States of America seized the law firm's bank accounts. See Exhibit B annexed hereto. 5 . Consequently, the very limited financial resources are primarily devoted to tying to bring money into the estate as opposed to expending money on unrelated third party litigation, such as this one. 6. While the Trustee has indicated in a different lawsuit his willingness to try to product to Mr. Epstein the documents he needs, in order that the Trustee's responsibility for winding-up the affairs of the Estate is not impeded and because of the limited finances available to the Trustee, he requests that the Court order that all costs associated with responding to Mr. Epstein's subpoena daces tecum be borne by Mr. Epstein and that at least 50% of the estimated costs be paid to the Trustee prior to any responsibility for undertaking a search for the documents. 7. The Trustee also requests that the time for responding to the subpoena duces tecum be adjourned until such time as this Court or Mr. Epstein and the Trustee are able to resolve the issues raised in this Motion for Protective Order. Wherefore, for the foregoing reasons, the Trustee requests this Court to grant this motion. E R. SINGERMAN attorneys at law 200 South Biscayne Boulevard Suite 1000 Miami.
