As you know | chose to partner with you due to your reputation in the business for being a top scout and developing a couple world class agencies in the past. | knew what you could bring and | knew what | could bring and contribute and | thought it would be a great partnership. Clearly, | never expected to have the level of challenges we have had recruiting new models over the last several years. | could have never foreseen the problem of your friendship with Jeffrey Epstein turning into the situation it has where you are seen as guilty by association when you have never done anything or even been convicted ofacrime.

This has stunted our growth and our billing over the past 6 or 7 years. In fact, we do not even know who avoids us based on finding this information. | have been surprised how challenging it is for us to grow due to this problem. | have also had a tremendous amount of worries from our clients that we are vendors for that are large American corporations likes Kohls, JC Penney, Sears, Nordstrom, Target, Neiman Marcus, Macys, Saks, Belk, and so forth that require vendor agreements and for us to be considered an upstanding company. It really worries me as some of those companies have disassociated themselves from what EXHIBIT K HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_012019
