Do NOT reply, click links or open attachments, unless you recognize the sending email address and know the content is safe..\n\nJim,\n\nl write in response to your email below and also in reference to the declaration the Debtor filed today purporting to assert his rights under the Fifth Amendment in response to the Court's order dated January 20, 2023 [ECF 1353] (the \"January 20 Order\") compelling him to (i) produce certain documents by January 31, 2023, and (ii) submit a sworn declaration by today describing in detail his document collection, search and review process in response to the Trustee's subpoena.\n\nWe do not believe the Debtor has substantiated a basis for his invocation of the Fifth Amendment, whether based on the \"act of production doctrine\" or otherwise. Among other things, the Debtor has not demonstrated how or why his production of every document the January 20 Order has compelled him to produce would be either incriminating or \"testimonial,\" as he must in order to rely on his rights under the Fifth Amendment. We further do not understand the basis for the Debaration that merely describing the process he used to search for responsive documents, in accordance with the January 20 Order, would somehow impinge on his Fifth Amendment rights. The Debtor cannot possibly take the position that his production of certain documents would violate his Fifth Amendment rights if he has not first searched for and identified all responsive documents that may exist, and we are entitled to understand the contours of that search and identification process, as the Court recognized in issuing its January 20 Order.\n\nFinally, I would note that the Debtor previously both produced documents and attempted to describe his document collection efforts without asserting any purported rights under the Fifth Amendment. In fact, the Debtor did not once invoke the Fifth Amendment in his response to the Trustee's subpoena or at the hearing on the Trustee's motion to compel.\n\nThe Trustee's subpoena has been outstanding since August 2022, the lanuary 20 Order was issued nearly three weeks ago, and the Debtor's deadlines to comply with the order have now lapsed. Absent a sufficient explanation by tomorrow, February 8, concerning the basis for the Debtor's assertions of his Fifth Amendment rights, we intend to seek relief from the Court.\n\nSeparately, as Avi discussed with Aaron last Friday, the production deadline under the January 20 Order of your other clients, Mei Guo and HK USA, has also passed. I previously agreed to take no action if your client produced the documents by February 3, and Avi subsequently agreed in the interest of allowing you to spend time on the production as opposed to motion practice that we would not seek the assistance of the Court prior to today. Please let us know if that production will be forthcoming today, as otherwise we also intend to address that issue with the Court\n\nRegards,\n\nNick\n\n![](_page_4_Picture_2.jpeg)\n\n### Nick Bassett | Partner | Financial Restructuring Group Paul Hastings LLP | 2050 M Street NW, Washington, DC 20036 | Direct: +1.202.551.1902 | Main: +1.202.551.1700 | Fax: +1.202.551.0402 | nicholasbassett@paulhastings.com | www.paulhastings.com\n\nFrom: James Moriarty <jmoriarty@zeislaw.com> Sent: Wednesday, February 1, 2023 5:32 PM To: Bassett, Nicholas <nicholassett@paulhastings.com>; Luft, Avi E. <aviluft@paulhastings.com> Cc: Aaron A.

We told you that if your clients could make a complete production before the end of this week we would withhold raising to the Court your clients failure to comply with the Court, but if your clients did not anticipate being in compliance by that time, we asked that you tell us now so that we need not waste turther time. You told us that you were meeting with Mei yesterday and that you would get back to us later in the day yesterday, to let us know the status of the production.\n\nOn that call we also had a brief discussion re: the scope of what your client must search for and produce. Specifically, in response to your comment that Ms. Guo need not produce her documents that may be held by Golden Springs, I noted that Ms. Guo and HK Int. were required to produce all documents in their possession custody and control, whether they were currently in their personal possession or in the hands of Golden Springs, Lamp Capital or any other agent, counsel or advisor. Consistent with my comment, I wanted to draw your attention to the Court's order that specifically calls for the production of such documents, and that Golden Springs, Lamp Capital, Yvette Wang, and Max Krasner (along with potentially others) – all of whom Ms. Guo has testified have taken actions either on behalf of, or in relations to, her business interests – have not yet produced a single document, and as such Ms. Guo is required under the Order to produce any documents under her or HK Int. control that they may have.\n\nSimilarly, I will note to avoid any dispute later, that the Order specifically calls for information regarding Ms. Guo and HK (USA)'s assets that are allegedly owned by Ms. Guo. While not definitive, I will note from her deposition, this should include any information regard her bank accounts (including the one at Bank of China where she testified her salary is deposited into, along with the six others she said were recently closed); her salary; the plane she testified she owned and the \\$10 mm she claims to have received for it; interests in any family businesses (including Pangu Plaza); the BVI entities she owns (including Whitecroft); Eastern Profit; HK Int (USA); HK Int (HK); her apartment; any monies she receives for expenses or otherwise from family members.\n\nPlease let us know.
