I, JEFFREY E. EPSTEIN, a resident and domiciliary of St. Thomas, United States Virgin Islands, do make, publish and declare this to be my Will hereby revoking all prior Wills and Codicils made by me.

1: I direct my Executor to pay from my estate all expenses of my last illness, my funeral and burial expenses, the administration expenses of my estate and all of my debts duly proven and allowed against my estate.

A. I direct my Executor to pay from my estate, as compensation to each Executor for serving as Executor hereunder, the sum of Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000) to each Executor upon the completion of probate of my estate. No Executor shall receive any other compensation for serving as Executor hereunder; provided, however, that my Executor shall be reimbursed from my estate for all reasonable costs, expenses, charges, and liabilities incurred or paid in respect thereto, including fees and expenses of counsel or any other agents hired by my Executor, and my Executor shall not be liable therefor individually.

B. I direct my Executor to pay from my estate the federal and state transfer taxes described in Paragraph B(1) of Article SEVENTH.

C. I direct my Executor to pay from my estate all expenses of storing, insuring, packing, shipping and delivering my tangible personal property in accordance with the provisions of Article SECOND.

2: I give all of my property, real and personal, wherever situated, after the payments and distributions provided in Article FIRST, to the then acting Trustees of The 1953 Trust ("Trust") created under that certain Trust Agreement of The 1953 Trust (the "Trust Agreement") dated August 8, 2019, as the same may be amended from time to time, to be held in accordance with the provisions comprising the Trust Agreement at the time of my death.

3: I appoint DARREN K. INDYKE and RICHARD D.
KAHN to serve as the Executors of this Will. If any one or more of my Executors fails to qualify, is
unable or unwilling to serve or ceases to act, I appoint BORIS NIKOLIC, as successor Executor. If
any successor Executor fails to qualify, is unable or unwilling to serve or ceases to act, I authorize
the last acting Executor to designate his or her successor. Such designation shall be made by
written instrument delivered to such designated successor Executor.

A. If my estate must be administered in whole or in part in any jurisdiction other than the state or territory of my domicile at the date of my death, and if my Executor is unable or unwilling to serve in such jurisdiction, then I appoint the successor Executor of my estate designated in Paragraph A of Article THIRD as successor Executor in such

If no Executor or successor Executor is able and willing to serve in such jurisdiction, my Executor shall designate a successor Executor to serve in such jurisdiction. Such designation shall be made by written instrument delivered to such successor Executor.

in any jurisdiction.

B. No bond or other security shall be required of any Executor

C. Any Executor may resign in the manner provided for by the governing statutes of the state or territory having jurisdiction of the administration of my estate or in the absence of such statutory guidance, by filing a written notice of resignation with the Court having jurisdiction of the administration of my estate. Any Executor who resigns shall not be entided to any compensation hereunder for any services rendered as Executor prior to his or her resignation.

D. My Executor shall not be accountable or responsible to any person interested in my estate for the manner in which my Executor in good faith exercises or declines to exercise any discretionary authority or power of my Executor. My Executor shall not be liable for any loss or depreciation in value occasioned by reason of any negligence, error or mistake of judgment in entering into any transaction, in making any sale or investment, in continuing to hold any property or by reason of any action or omission, whether by my Executor or any other fiduciary, unless my Executor has acted in bad faith. In the absence of proof by affirmative evidence to the contrary, each Executor shall be deemed to have acted within the scope of my Executor's authority, to have exercised reasonable care, diligence and prudence and to have acted impartially as to all interested persons. An Executor shall not be liable for the acts or defaults of another Executor.

4: The following provisions shall apply to my estate and to my Executor, except as is otherwise specifically provided in this Will:

My Executor shall exercise my Executor's best judgment and discretion for what my Executor believes to be in the best interests of the beneficiaries hereunder. Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Will, if two Executors are empowered to participate in the decision to exercise or not to exercise any fiduciary power granted by this Will or by law, such decision shall be made by such Executors acting unanimously.
