I can confirm. It will be three attendees if David can attend, and two if he can’t attend.

10am Monday works for Lawranne.  Can we confirm?  We told her that two of David's partners would be there and that David would try.  How many people would it be total if David can attend?  3?  They want to reserve a conference room.

Hunter, the hang up is David’s schedule. We still don’t know if he can make a morning meeting, and we know the proposed afternoon meeting does not work because it will conflict with the FDIC meeting. Can we lock it in for the morning, but make them aware in case it makes a huge difference to them that, regardless whether Boies can make it personally, two of his partners will be there?

FYI, my contact at Treasury told me that Jake has been out of the office on vacation.   She’s going to touch base with Jake’s office and coordinate and get back to me tomorrow on a possible meeting.

I know David cannot do after 2:30 because we are meeting with the FDIC at 4. I will wait to share with client until we find out if David can do the morning meeting.

Nick-

 

Lawranne Stewart, Senior Counsel to Chairman Frank on the Financial Services Committee, will be happy to meet with David on Monday.  She had availability before 11am or after 2:30pm.  What time works best for David?  Let me know and I’ll confirm with Lawranne and get you her room number.

 

Best,

 

Hunter

Here is text for an all purposes email

 

You may remember that in September of 2008, JP Morgan bought most of the assets of Washington Mutual Bank for $1.88 billion from the FDIC.  This transaction occurred on the same day WaMu was closed and the FDIC was appointed WaMu’s receiver.  JPM has reported that it has made billions from its 2008 purchase of WaMu from the FDIC.  JPMC a TARP recipient, is now claiming an additional $2.6 billion in WaMu tax refunds from the November 2009 stimulus package.  Congress expressly carved out TARP recipients—such as JPM—from those who could benefit from the November 2009 stimulus package.  JPM argues nonetheless  that there is a loophole in the law: Washington Mutual Bank, not JPMC, may claim the stimulus tax relief and then turn it over to JPM.   JPM is now trying to obtain the FDIC’s consent to a settlement of claims that awards the $2.6 billion in stimulus refunds to a TARP recipient (JPM) and the FDIC is urging a settlement that will permit that result.
