Hello Mary,

SubjeciTravel Request on Client’s plane approvuti

I have approved for Dale to accept an invitation by his client and personal friend, Michael Ovitz to round trip on his personal plane to the JPM’s Alternative Investment Summit in Miami. Mr. Ovitz is a long standing client of the Bank bio below:

Ovitz has been a client of the client of the LA office for about a year after being a prospect for several years. Through Jeffrey Epstein, Jes Staley has established a direalogue with Ovitz which has enabled us to pursue various opportunities in connection with his Disney options, his TV production company and other entertainment-related projects. This new entity is the borrower on the restructuring of a credit facility for which the borrower will be Artists Production Group (CKE AssociataC, Artists Management Group, LLC, Artists Television Group, LLC were the original borrowers). Dale was Mr. Ovitz CFO for the Ovtiz Family office prior to his employment as a Senior Banker at JPMorgan. In 2001 Ovitz shuttered n production company (ATG) and in 2002 sold his management company (AMG) to The Firm 1.1 He is currently producing films under the Artists Production Group (APG) banner and providing management/agency services for a select hand full of clients (Tom Clancy, Michael Crighton). In addition, he is actively pursuing an NFL team for Los Angeles by working with a local developer Bill Geherity as a consultant. Ovitz recently negotiated a $10MM advance from the NFL to be used for Stadium planning and feasibility testing. His involvement is unclear, but seems to be purely a consulting roll for the stadium with hopes of having a piece of the stadium and a larger roll in a football team. Ovitz also remains active in the art world buying, selling and collecting major art pieces. Ovitz maintains one of the top 200 private art collections in the world. He has a very successful Japanese restaurant in west Los Angeles, Hamasaku. He is considering opening another location in Hollywood area. He has several real estate holdings, commercial and personal, and is planning to build a new residence in the Beverly hills area. His wife Judy is actively building a horse ranch in the Ojai, California area.
