EMAIL DETAILS

Hunter and Eric-

Please review my draft email to Rebekah. I want your approval before I send.

Rebekah-

It was a difficult day for everyone- including Hunter.

Bottom line, it was reckless to file that Motion as part of a public court filing and the repercussions of this are and will continue to be widespread- and will negatively impact Hunter, Kathleen, and the girls. While no one could have predicted the exact timing of this story breaking in the press, that fact that it would break at some point was never a question. You could have moved to seal the file before filing that motion- especially since it was never even set for a hearing.

Hunter's business has already been impacted and his income earning potential has been jeopardized if not already damaged. This is bad for everyone.

What Hunter was prepared to do last week at mediation, literally may no longer be possible. And candidly, his willingness to be as generous as he offered before, is now limited if not non-existent.

I am in trial next Monday and Tuesday and Hunter has a meeting he cannot reschedule on Thursday. I am going to talk with him about how to proceed from here but at this juncture, the path I saw to settlement on Tuesday is no longer achievable.

I am not sure what, if anything, can be done at this point to salvage this. I assume you will brainstorm with Kathleen to that end.

Sarah

Sarah,

I understand from your assistant you were in mediation all day, so I am sorry to bother you on the heels of that.

Today was obviously a very tough day for Kathleen and the girls. Hunter seems to think the Motion to Enjoin was filed yesterday. Please help him understand it was filed when he denied possession of the diamond, and after the secret deposits into his separate bank accounts. It was filed at a time when the case had been pending for some time with absolutely no media attention. We had no way of predicting the Halle - Hunter story would break yesterday, and as soon as we realized it we tried to get the case sealed. It just moved too quickly for us to do anything at that point. In any event, this is not fair to the girls, and Kathleen wants to quickly work to quiet everything down.

I ask that you please work off of the most recent draft MSA I sent you and turn it around as soon as possible. Please let us know if Hunter can get close to what we are asking for so we can wrap this up and quiet everything down.

Sincerely,

Rebekah J.H. Sullivan
