## Noam,

I spoke =ith Harry a short while ago and made no progress whatsoever. In =act he refused to give me any input into his thoughts at all, except =hat he would be willing to speak about the successor trustee issue with =ither Max or his own counsel on the phone. I got the distinct =mpression that he has made little progress on finding his own counsel =s he mentioned that a discussion with his own counsel would need to =ait until January.

I asked Harry to consider naming Richard as the successor =rustee on the basis that Richard is a trustee with a great deal of =xperience, he has your trust, and he is a permitted independent trustee =ccording to the terms of the trust.

## Noam, (cont.)

If we are to make progress on finding a =uccessor to Max we need to either a) have a call with Max and Harry =arly next week; b) your daughters need to agree to remove both Max and =arry and leave the appointment up to you; or c) institute a court =ction for removal. I do not think we should wait until Harry =inds his own counsel. I do not think we should institute a court =ction until we get the list of potential successor trustees from Max =nd have had a chance to review it together. I will review and =hare with you, Valeria and Richard the list of potential successor =rustees from Max and we can determine how to proceed from there.
