From: jeffrey E. <jeevacation@gmail.com> Sent: Thursday, May 12, 2016 10:18 AM To: Melanie Spinella Subject: tight schedule lets try a set time to speak Leon, you hired me to produce a work of art.=C2* it was not inexpensive. the value far exceeds any other piece in your collection.- by FAR . =lt took me 30 years to be able to craft such a work. I understand your desire to modifiy my work, =C24k in doing so you have brad telling me , just a bit more red., here let me show you,=C24k you yourself pick up a brush a add some strokes. you have=joslin spray water on it to maintain it. I vigorously complain that joslin in ruining my w=rk .. you describe me as zeus, i describe it as artist and a reaction to his work being ruined. however =m aware that you own the work and you have the right to paint over it. tear it up , put it in the closet in the basement . its you=s. I was told that Toms office is sending someone in ,or some people in, to review "some things." brad told me ,the partnership account=ng. I know absolutely nothing more than that. though bringing in his team was my idea . Having them review things without even asking for my input , or let alone my direction ,is ridiculous. but.. I guess you wanted to save money.? The audit has brought to the fore the lack of your=office quality that i have been violently squawking about. ie . =children playing with works of art.. It is inconceivable to me that*=A0 John castrucci is still there , joslin part time, but relied on .4,=A0 joe error prone and brad a corporate bandleader talking abo=t the office's finance team, accounting dept, and directing wendy to d= things that are clearly not in your interest. ( saving money ag=in ?) its nuts!! . a still non-existent IT dept. impossi=le , it was the first thing on my list of things that were needed to be done. =C2* Still no trading accounts to speak of , though its prophylactic quali=y has been discussed over and over during the past three years . computers do not read Page Six . the women at the IRS do. !4>=A0 you said your motivation in keeping this group of part timers was = consequence of the high cost of my artwork. . the urfortunate result was easily predictable. - now 40=A0 If you want my and my atelier to continue, I will oversee the audits. take charge of the TRA BRH assignments and review 2012 amendment options!!( note :your redo of the=20 estate fire drill has not progressed very far ). Lots of paper needs=20 to be collected and reviewed, At MY direction. the outside team will be brought in at my expense working for me and you. coming=C240 in for interviews and reviews, . sucession, technology, tax and compliance. investment reporting „ computerized timelines for filings etc. .=C24k household classifcations and reporting with a system of best practices. <=r> My goal is clear • to end, not extend , our financial interactions. you will have a machine that works , it will not be complexto oversee , to create it,=20 is some thing else . Unfortunatley for us both, the price for =y works has not changed since day one. 40m per year, I m w=lling to discount it to 35 as I did give you a bad number when asked and=should pay an embarassment fine. Im also aware, as you made perfectl= clear . that you have already paid what you consider a great deal of=money, for my work, but again its value exceeds anything else by far in your collection at a cost less than agreed upon. . please also reme=ber that you and i agreed no more demands on my time after the last payment for the big transaction. OR, =ou can decide that brad , tom , and whomever else you choose can screw with my work and they can oversee your audits .=C24, they are both aware and sensitive to the issue at hand. alan c=uld be brought in but i would be extra careful having paul weiss given access to entire story. EFTA_R1_01572950 EFTA02465196 _-On an unrelated n=te• you recently seemed shy to discuss certain things. , please be assured I make no judgement on a=y of your activities , whether or not i agree with them . not my=role I am always on your side on the table. I hope your person.' life quiets. you've had a rough 15 months. 3. Remind me to talk to you about MR 2 EFTA_R1_01572951 EFTA02465197
