DERSHOWITZ 1575 MASSACHUSETTS AVENUE CAMBRIDGE • MASSACHUSETTS • 02138 August 15, 2011 Jack Scarola, Esq. Searcy Denney Scarola Barnhart & Shipley Re: Edwards adv. Epstein Dear Mr. Scarola: As you may know, I was Jeffrey Epstein’s attorney when he submitted his guilty plea. Accordingly, “any knowledge” I may have in connection with that plea is privileged information. If you would let me know what non-privileged information you would seek from me, I would then be able to decide whether to cooperate. Sincerely, Alan M. Dershowitz EFTA00188853
