Estate of Emanuel Trompeter, Deceased, Robin Carol Trompeter Gonzalez and Janet Ilene Trompeter Polachek, Co-Executors - Page 27

                                        -26-                                          
          discussing with the decedent the specifics of the assets which he           
          owned.  Gonzalez, and to a lesser extent Polachek, became                   
          knowledgeable of the specifics of the decedent’s vast wealth, and           
          Gonzalez in conjunction with Polachek deliberately undertook to             
          maximize their receipt of that wealth by, among other things,               
          undervaluing his assets and excluding assets from the taxable               
          estate.                                                                     
               Receipts and canceled checks show that the decedent bought             
          from Mamiye and Lloyds (primarily at its Fifth Avenue store in              
          New York) various assets which included diamonds, rubies,                   
          sapphires, and emeralds, either loose or as pieces of jewelry,              
          and ivory, jade, rugs, furniture, and Chinese artifacts.  We set            
          forth these receipts and checks in four categories.                         
                         a.  Receipts From Lloyds to the Decedent                     
               Lloyds gave to the decedent nine receipts reflecting                   
          $1,421,000 of merchandise that it sold to him during 1988 and               
          1989.  Three of the nine receipts relate to purchases of $650,000           
          made on January 16, 1988.  One of the nine receipts relates to              
          purchases of $235,000 made on May 4, 1988.  One of the nine                 
          receipts relates to purchases of $235,000 made on May 5, 1988.              
          Three of the nine receipts relate to purchases of $276,000 made             




               13(...continued)                                                       
          33 years old, respectively.
