EMAIL DETAILS

To clarify on the gift taxes, Hunter just alerted me that he misspoke. He meant that any money that the Buhles gifted Kathleen they would have paid a gift tax on and any money Kathleen gifts to the Buhles she would pay the gift tax on.

> 4. The notion the R is giving me advice about the nature of the press and tabloids is truly astounding. I don't know what fantasy world she lives in, but her failure to recognize that she alone cost her client millions of dollars filing that motion and her failure to advise her client that it's in her own interest to help stop the bleeding is stupidity at best and malpractice at worst. I can't believe she phas the nerve to charge Kathleen anything to tell you the truth. Kathleen should go with D'Amato's advice and sue her for malpractice. Somehow Rebekah seems to have convinced Kath that the whole thing was our fault for not Requesting it be sealed.

>> Re: the life insurance, he can’t collaterally assign it to Kathleen/an individual. Setting up an ILET would be time consuming, cumbersome and cost money. Since that isn’t required by the agreement I requested something from John Hancock saying that as of X date Kathleen is the sole beneficiary and Hunter can get that each year as required. Also, the agreement says she is irrevocably the beneficiary so that should cover that concern.
>>
>> While we are on insurance, Kathleen’s health insurance is paid through April 30th so I defer to Hunter but it makes sense to just remove her from the policy effective on that date. Then she would need to get health insurance effective May 1.

>>> Attached is Hunter’s press statement. Its identical to the one that Meg prepared at mediation except that we changed “breakdown” to “conclusion”. Please confirm the attached is agreeable to Kathleen.
