                                       - 24 -                                         
               Q:   You said that if the money wasn’t sufficient from her             
               [decedent’s] share of the partnerships to pay for her needs,           
               extra funds would come out of your share, your sister’s                
               share and your brother’s share?                                        
               A:   Yes.  And that’s why my sister and I purchased shares.            
               * * * When we came up with the agreement for the limited               
               partnerships, it was the thing that anybody ever agreed to;            
               the three of us finally agreed to something.  Judge Gould              
               sat at a table with us months, every day for three weeks               
               straight.  She sat at the conference table with us and                 
               worked this out with us.                                               
                    *    *     *        *      *       *      *                       
               Q:   Now, you testified on direct that your mother had the             
               right to income from her share, correct?                               
               A:   Yes.                                                              
               Q:   But you also testified earlier that if there hadn’t               
               been enough income from her share, she would have been able            
               to get the income from your share and your sister’s share?             
               A:   Yes, I did say that.  I would have given my mother                
               money to take care of her living.  It was from my share and            
               personal assets.                                                       
               Q:   So, that if she had had an extraordinary expense in any           
               given month, like an un-reimbursable medical bill, you would           
               have paid it, right?                                                   
               A:   Yes, I would have.                                                
               Q:   And you would have sought reimbursement from that                 
               expense from Mr. Goldman first?                                        
               A:   Yes, I would have.                                                
               Q:   And if it absorbed all of the income from the                     
               partnerships for that month, Mr. Goldman –- you still would            
               have asked for it from Mr. Goldman, right?                             
               A:   I would have asked for it.                                        
               Q:   And he would have paid it?                                        
               A:   Yes.
