I'm confused about the highlighted passage. Is t=at a matter of law, or a matter of agreement among me and the beneficiarie=.

Would it be possible at this point for me to revoke/d=ssolve the trust, and have the assets return to me?

Dear Richard,</=>>

Lawrence Krauss will not =ualify as an independent trustee to replace Max unless he qualifies under =he terms of the trust. The trust provides as follows in paragraph 8.2(a) on page 5:

"An independen= trustee is an individual or institution who has no beneficial interest in=the trust, who is a professional trustee, investment advisor or manager, investment banker, accountant or lawyer, and who is not related or subordi=ate to my husband or any of my children as defined in section 672(c) of th= Internal Revenue Code."

Please give some consider=tion to naming a successor who qualifies as a professional trustee. = bank or trust company with trust powers, rather than an individual, may be ideal in this situation especially as there is a risk of a lawsuit =y the remainder beneficiaries against the independent trustee after Noam=E244s passing. Again, an interview process for a change such as =his one is important and should not be rushed.

With regard to the Bainco=claim, I am not qualified to negotiate a settlement in this matter. = will discuss this with Gene to determine whether we still have a conflict, and if not, to whom we might refer this matter internally.Q=A0 If we still have a conflict we will identify outside counsel for Noam.<=>

Best,

Deborah

deborah,

noam has decided to replace max with Lawrenence Krau=s, a friend and highly respected scientist, as Trustee. as we =iscussed if harry agrees, this should put the current issue to rest.= he would like gene landy to recommend a person re a lawsuit against bain, but I thought the first step and noam agreed wo=ld be a call to bain from you in the hopes of a settlement. If=he has to file a lawsuit he understands he will need a different firm as G=ne said he thought your firm had a conflict. thanks for your help. I certainly want none of these steps to=impede the delivery of the account statements. thx
