adverse publicity surrounding Epstein and his illegal activities, and the publicity falsely linking Plaintiffs with those activities; namely, sex trafficking. (Composite Exhibit A). 10. One example of such a photographer was Michael Avedon, who worked with MC2 on photo shoots. Avedon stopped answering Plaintiffs’ emails and phone calls after having known Plaintiff for some time. Upon meeting Avedon out one night, Avedon stated to Plaintiff Brunel he had “found out some information” from some friends of his and that he could not associate his name with MC2. 11. This statement by Avedon was no doubt a reference to the alleged and false links between Plaintiffs and Epstein’s illegal activities with under-aged girls. This incident clearly illustrates an example of lost business on Plaintiffs’ behalf. 12. | The second example of a business relationship that was terminated due to Epstein’s intentional and illegal activities was a very recent one, involving an overseas agency, Modilinos Model Agency. The owner stated that the model to be placed with MC2 “found some article in internet, which changed her position and she preferred to be placed with another agency.” This was relayed to Plaintiff Brunel by e-mail dated October 15, 2014. This amply demonstrates that Epstein’s intentional & illegal activities continue to cost Plaintiffs’ business income. (Exhibit B attached). 13. A third example of a lost business relationship can be found in an e-mail dated October 17, 2014 (Exhibit C attached). The director of the | Mother Agency, Vladmir Yudashkin, states that a specific model will not sign with Plaintiff MC2 due to her fear that Plaintiffs’ will force her into illegal activities. The model bases her fears upon the stories on the internet falsely implicating Plaintiffs as being involved with illegal activities with young models. This is HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_011914
