‘ Attorney Proffer | January 3, 2020 girls that were with him to go shopping. He pointed out what he thought was in good taste and looked good as compared to combinations that he didn’t think looked good. learned how to dress from his comments. Over the years, f got to understand Epstein in some ways and not at all in others. She was impressed with his accomplishments and the way he handled people. She attended dinner parties at his house with other young girls about her age and business associates of Epstein. These parties were interesting and could see how much respect people had for Jeffrey Epstein. To knowledge, there were no sexual encounters at these parties. Social, business acquaintances and Epstein’s friends were present at these parties. ma also was invited to teas at Epstein’s house with Epstein’s friends, business acquaintances, and beautiful women. In these settings, the matters were purely social and not related to anything sexual. Epstein would call _ to his office and she would spend time with him, in a sexual manner and potentially for a part of the day. There were times he’d call to the office for her company and then leave in a car to run errands. Basically, he helped || with her living expenses but wanted her available to be with him and accompany him on trips upon request. Epstein, in fact, helped | | with dental work that she needed. During the first three months, there were discussions about and her aspirations regarding whether she wanted to be a model. She replied that she thought she was too old to be a working model. During this time there were also discussions whether she would be interested in working or running a modeling agency. This conversation came up a few times, but Epstein said that he wanted to help mz and was interested in buying an agency. During discussion about the modeling agency, i. that he was interested in buying a modeling agency and that he thought that could run it. mentioned that she had no experience and he said that if she wo! or an agency for a year, she could pick i ause she’s smart and there’s not that much to it. At the time that he said this in 2004, had known, through Google and her search that Epstein had been interested in buying an agency and she thought she was lucky that he would follow through and do this because it would give her a good career opportunity. thought that she was lucky and in the right place at the right time. By late summer 2004, was aware that there were other individuals who were helping Epstein find new girls for him to see. She did not know exactly who they were but there were days believed knew that Epstein saw girls for a massage three times a day when in New York. This number, if true, was far in excess of the number of girls that | indirectly or directly, introduced to Epstein. During the times that they traveled to the island Little St. James, would be there with two or three other girls and sometimes including ace s assistant. The activities on the island were somewhat structured whic 1 an The people that came Page 7 of 11 EFTA00084197

Attorney Proffer | January 3, 2020 with him would have breakfast, lunch and dinner together. There were times they had group activities which would include snorkeling, being in the pool, or going to St. Thomas to do shopping or visiting his office there. The group of them would even go out for ice cream after business. so biked, hiked, and snorkeled. These group activities were generally something that welcomed and enjoyed. There were times when Epstein just had around just to check how she was doing, Sometimes at the island, was called to see Epstein for a bubble bath on more than one occasion which turned out to be nonsexual. Epstein would inquire how was doing and ask if she was having fun. On many occasions, Epstein asked to only give him a foot massage when they were on the island. When the modeling agency didn’t work out and more pressure was coming from Epstein regarding finding girls, became frustrated. recalled in 2005 that she asked Epstein on two occasions, about three months apart, about whether she could be his second assistant. She thought there was going to be an opening in that position. Epstein replied, “Not now, but let’s talk about it later.” At the end of this period, believed that he was stringing her along. She disliked the pressure that Epstein was putting on her to find girls. In August 2006, Jeffrey Epstein told IJ he had been arrested and the FBI was involved. He told her she should not bring any girls or look for any girls for him at that time. was scared because she didn’t understand what happened. Epstein cut the conversation short and didn’t want to talk about it. For the next 2-3 weeks, | access to Epstein was limited as he was traveling and unavailable, As far as Florida was concerned, all the information that | | got was from Google alerts and whatever newspaper articles they picked up and forwarded to her. She never discussed this with people in the Epstein’s circle of influence. Starting in May or June of 2004, Epstein used sexual toys such as vibrators on was not experienced with these before. Later the type of vibrators changed; faked orgasms Eventually, told Epstein that the vibrator hurt her. By early 2005, Epstein suggested threesomes. Before this happened, he told || that kissing and being with women would help her learn how to please a man. The threesomes occurred 3-4 times in New York, New Mexico, or on the Island. Sometimes Epstein’s girlfriends were involved. In late 2005, Epstein asked | | to see male friend on his behalf. The first time Epstein said it would be good for you to meet this guy. Thereafter, Epstein directed ma to go to a hotel room and give a massage or be with his friend. This happened about every three months for different friends. was upset and very hurt about being told to be with his friends. Page 8 of 11 EFTA00084198

By March 2008, Natalie was able to study, take and pass the Series 7 exam. By May 2008, she voluntarily left Smith Barney due to personal reasons. Vil. Jeffrey’s Incarceration During the time that Jeffrey was incarcerated, | occasionally sent emails to see how he was doing. Some emails were answered and some were not. These were personal in matter. At this time, ia life was difficult on many levels, most of which were due to the trauma and relationship she had had with Epstein. Post Epstein’s incarceration, mz spoke to Epstein in New York in November 2010 by telephone. During that conversation Epstein asked to look for girls, but declined, and the conversation ended. At that point, decided that she had to leave New York. I left in early 2011. In February 2017, iz received an email from = stating that he was being sued and that she had been named in a lawsuit filed by . should get an attorney and that it would be best if they did not communicate. As it turned out, was never served in the case entitled Doe 43 v. Epstein et al. VII. Hindsight iz realized that she missed the warning signs regarding Epstein’s character and motives. The following summarizes her hindsight beliefs: 1. Looking back, the surroundings and the way Epstein conducted business made it possible for him to manipulate people and brainwash them. 2. The le around Epstein who were involved in sexual encounters such as and and others, had nowhere else to go. They had no family, and were young, easily trapped and manipulated.

All these girls were unable to separate the aura of success, the private jet, the island, the many houses, and the various influential people who looked up to Epstein from the truth of what was going on and how he was pulling strings and working at sorting through young woman for his own benefit. 4. iz now believes that Epstein was picking through the numerous girls who he could control for his own gratification and to eventually either provide service for Epstein’s friends of his or who he could introduce to important people for marriage. Either way, all were, for Epstein’s benefit and to increase his influence. 5. | | is still troubled and haunted by Epstein and what happened to girls who may have been vulnerable and hurt. It is now over 15 years and continues to suffer psychologically and emotionally from Epstein’s control and domination.

Gain trust sexually, have fun, feel comfortable, just say something bothers you — no big deal, makes you feel comfortable; 3. Impress with accomplishments, wealth , power interaction with important people and show mansion; 4. Surround young girls by happy people, fun loving , powerful , beautiful and successful people to create an aura of privilege and normalcy; 5. Ask friends- massage; 6.
