Pittman, Esq. 130 Orinoco Drive PO Box 463 Brightwaters, New York 11718 VIA OVERNIGHT COURIER Re: ARC Holdings LLC v. Nailati Holdings LLC Index No.: 600605/2017 Richard Sapienza, Jr. v. Christopher Mercogliano Index No.: 619214/2016 Dear Mr. Pittman: As you know, this office represents plaintiff ARC Holdings LLC and Richard Sapienza, Jr. inthe above-mentioned actions. I write with reference to the stipulation dated November 17, 2012, which was filed electronically filed on November 20, 2017 and so-ordered by Justice Garguilo on November 21, 2017. As per the terms of paragraph 4 of the stipulation, enclosed please find: (a) as "Exhibit A", a copy of the closing statement for the sale of 22 Railroad Avenue, Babylon, New York; (b) as "Exhibit B", staternents of account for the Chase bank account ending in-7W1-for the period o September 2016 through October 2017; and (e) as "Exhibit C", documentation detailing and supporting certain transactions identified by you concerning the Nailati Holdings LLC Morgan Stanley bank accountending in 8636 and ARC Holdings Chase bank account ending in 7171. Ýo the best of my knowledge, a closing statement has not yet been generated for the sale of 64-66 Park Avenue, Bay Shore, New York, but we will forward same upon receipt. As indicated by the documents enclosed as "Exhibit C", on or about September 19, 2017, Christopher Mercogliano, member of Nailati Holdings LLC, assigned Nailati's to ARC Holdings, among other rights, the right to collect amounts due for rent from its tenants. As you might be aware, the rent from its tenants was Nailati's sole source of income. Prior to the assignment, amounts received for rent were used to operate, maintain and develop Nailati's real estate holdings. As such, after the rents were assigned to ARC, Nailati had no source of capital to continue its operations. In connection with Nailati's assignment of rental income to ARC, Mr. Sapienza created the ARC Holdings Chase bank account ending in 7171. As the bank statements indicate, the account ending in 7171 was used for the deposit rents received. Consequently, and because the Nailati FILED: SUFFOLK COUNTY CLERK 12/03/2018 08/26/2019 02:07 04:38 PM INDEX NO. 613443/2018 603298/2019 NYSCEF DOC.

November 28, 2017 Page 2 bank accounts no longer received any which could fund its operations, for convenience, the 7171 account (which received the rental funds) became the operating account for Nailati. Each of the transactions at issue indicates a transfer of funds from the Nailati bank account ending in 8636 to the ARC Holdings bank account ending in 7171 (i.e. the account being used for the operation of Nailati). Specifically: (i) The October 18, 2016 transfer of $773.33 from Nailati to ARC Holdings is reflected in the bank statement for the period of September 30, 2016 through October 31, 2016 for the ARC Holdings account ending in 7171; (ii) The April 5, 2017 transfer of $63,597.77 from Nailati to ARC Holdings is reflected in the bank statement for the period of April 1 through April 28, 2017 for the ARC Holdings account ending in 7171, and reflects a deposit of a portion of the net proceeds from the sale of 1 Park Place into the account which was being used to fund Nailati's continued operation and pay itsexpenses. (ii) April 6, 2017 transfer of $6,800.00 from Nailati to ARC Holdings is reflected in the bank statement for the period of April 1 through April 28, 2017 for the ARC Holdings account ending in 7171, and reflects a deposit of a portion of the net proceeds from the sale of 1 Park Place into the account which was being used to fund Nailati's continued operation and pay its expenses. (iv) The. July 25, 2017 transfer of $220,460.90 from Nailati to ARC IIoldings is reflected in the bank statement for the period of July 1 through July 31, 2017 for the ARC Holdings account ending in 7171, and reflects a deposit of the net proceeds from the sale of 22 Railroad Avenue into the account which was being used to fund Nailati's continued operation and pay its expenses. D" Moreover, as the documents enclosed as "Exhibit indicate, Mr. Sapienza (or his entities) funded Nailati's continued operation with $275,000.00 in additional funds. Among other things, these amounts were used to pay over $131,000.00 in tax arrears, monthly payments for interest due under the mortgages, regular payments to vendors in connection with the maintenance of the properties, and to make payment to professionals in connection with ongoing operations. When Nailati accrued sufficient funds, by sale of the properties or otherwise, the principal amounts Mr. Sapienza loaned to Nailati were repaid.
