Rodziwill Bingham Ray Paul Trijbits Joana Vicente Executive Director November 21, 2011 Jeffrey Epstein 301 East 66th Street, Suite 10B New York, NY 10065 Dear Jeffrey, I would like to thank you for your generous support of IFP with your contribution of $7,000 USD, to be used toward our annual program, the Gotham Independent Film Awards TM. The success of the organization, our programs, and the filmmakers upon which we provide support and mentorship would not be possible without kind and generous donations such as this. After debuting with a program in the 1979 New York Film Festival, the nonprofit IFP has evolved into the nation's oldest and largest organization of independent filmmakers, and also the premier advocate for them. Since its start, IFP has supported the production of 7,000 films and provided resources to more than 20,000 filmmakers' voices that otherwise might not have been heard. IFP believes that independent films broaden the palette of cinema, seeding the global culture with new ideas, kindling awareness, and fostering activism. Currently, IFP represents a network of 10,000 filmmakers in New York City and around the world. Through its workshops, seminars, conferences, mentorships, and Filmmaker magazine, IFP schools its members in the art, technology, and business of independent filmmaking (there are special programs to promote racial, ethnic, religious, ideological, gender, and sexual diversity). IFP builds audiences by hosting screenings, often in collaboration with other cultural institutions-and also bestows the Gotham Awards TPA, the first honors of the film awards season. When all is said and done, IFP fosters the development of 350 feature and documentary films each year. Our programs provide filmmakers with access to the tools to develop and present their vision, and audiences with the opportunity to discover new work. Our signature programs include the Gotham Independent Film Awards TPA, Independent Film Week, Filmmaker Magazine, Envision, and IFP's Independent Filmmaker Labs. The success of these programs would not be possible without the generous support from individuals like you. IFP is designated by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) as a tax-exempt organization as defined by section 50I(c)3 of the IRS code. Therefore, your contribution of $7,000 is tax deductible. IFP's Federal Tax Identification number is 13-3118525. Please keep this letter as a receipt for tax purposes, and contact your financial advisor for proper consultation. With warmest regards and sincere thanks, Steven Pfeiffer IFP Development Manager cc: Joana Vicente, Executive Director EFTA00284496
