EFTA00192744 201 S. Biscayne Boulevard, Suite I300 • Miami, Florida 33131 • Phone: 305-371-6421 • Fax: 305-358-2006 • www.RoyBlack.com As you know, Rothstein’s firm represents Wilde, three of the plaintiffs who have brought civil actions against Mr. Epstein. The Rothstein firm was a criminal enterprise that used the litigation against Mr. Epstein to lure investors into its billion-dollar ponzi scheme. We believe that Rothstein and his co-conspirators used the government's criminal investigation as a means to perpetrate and further their fraud. For example: letter. It has taken us a while to respond to your letter because other matters have consumed our time and effort. Over the past five weeks, the massive billion-dollar conspiracy created and run by Scott Rothstein has been exposed. On Monday, Mr. Epstein filed a state civil RICO lawsuit charging Rothstein, his partner Brad Edwards, and others with tortuous and fraudulent abuses of process that resulted in serious injury to Mr. Epstein. A copy of the Complaint is enclosed with this You emailed me a letter on November 2, asking whether Jeffrey Epstein's place of employment remained constant. It has. I reviewed a Google map to confirm that the distance between that place of employment and the location where he was stopped by Palm Beach Police is less than 3 miles (and that the location where he was walking was on a direct route to his place of work).

EFTA00192745 Black, Srebnick, Kornspan & Stumpf, P.A. Enclosure RB/wg I would like a short conference with you in person to talk about Mr. Epstein's progress through the state criminal justice system, to discuss several outstanding issues that I want to make sure you have accurate information about, and, from my perspective, most importantly, so that I can provide Mr. Epstein with proper counsel going forward. If you email me some dates when you are available this month, we can schedule a short meeting in your office hopefully before the year ends. As a lawsuit brought by some of the investors’ claims, Rothstein and his partner Edwards used Jeffrey Epstein as bait. The litigation strategy, media pronouncements, and investigatory initiatives of Rothstein and Edwards were calculated to support Rothstein’s deceptions rather than to advance the position of his clients. I bring these facts to your attention so that if you had contact with Edwards or those associated with him in the past concerning Mr. Epstein, you consider not continuing communications with any of them in the future. our part would constitute a breach of the NPA. So the Rothstein lawyers, once again, are using the power of the federal government to perpetrate and further their fraud. And the expense of litigating these cases has been extreme. For example, Bob Josefsberg, who I do not believe was aware of the Rothstein crimes, is now demanding over $2 million in legal fees. A. Marie Villafaña, Esq. December 9, 2009 Page 3 EFTA00192746
