I like draft lets see what more of a long form contract would look like with these changes: If PPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP comes in they get 10%. Venby.com button can be non exclusive. Brand or Aysis management (along with you )must also sign off on all transactions over 2k until Finance Dept is in place. 7.5 ownership "stock" in ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ. Its obviously a competitor and if you decide to shift gears I would like to be protected. Elton Brand Milkandmedia

Subject: Elton Brand Date: Mon 9/09/13 8:32 PM Dear XXXXXXXXXXXX This firm is litigation counsel to Elton Brand. We have learned that you have engaged in activities for which you may be substantially liable to Mr. Brand. Among other things, we are aware that you have written a false and defamatory letter to Mr. Brand's current employer, the Atlanta Hawks organization. We understand that the sole reason you contacted the Atlanta Hawks is to frighten Mr. Brand

You have falsely stated and implied to Mr. Brand's employer that Mr. Brand and others may have succumbed to some sort of illicit investment opportunity, thereby casting Mr. Brand in a negative and derogatory light. Your bizarre letter has the effect of causing Mr. Brand's employer to associate him with strange and unseemly activities. Your harassment of Mr. Brand and attempt to extort money from him must cease immediately. Very truly yours, ELTONSLAWYER From: OOOOOOOOOOOO To: @hawks.com Subject: Hi Mr. Aaaaa -looking to confirm an email contact Date: Mon, 9 Sep 2013 15:10:37 -0700 Zzzz Zzzz Head Zzzzzz Atlanta Hawks hi Mr. Aaaaa, my name is OOOOOOOOOO It has come to my attention from Mr. Brand that while Mr. Brand was in Atlanta trying to focus on working outs, that the below individual solicited Mr. Brand and pitched him on one or more investment opportunities, **onsite** at Hawks property. I have offered to do bit of digging to determine if: i) this gentleman may be targeting other Hawk players with investment solicitations ii) that there is a lack of security and protection in the workout gym areas that allowed what Mr. Brand characterized correctly to me a few days ago, "a promoter", to gain access to ur players where they have insufficient legal representation and are vulnerable. iii) that there could be other "promoters" also targeting ur players by somehow having gotten access to use gym facilities that are surely meant for Hawk players and team officials only iv) that allowing "frat-rappers" (see mr. Itzler wikipedia bio i would describe as "highly selfedited with fluff) 'that clearly are hucksters and/or unlicensed investment professionals to physically engage and pitch deals to players in gym is a bad idea for many reasons. Not to mention, creating potential confusion by players that the Hawks endorse the high risk offerings of "promoters" like Itzler. Finally Mr. Itzler may have threatened or pressured Mr. Brand because Mr. Brand disclosed he intended to invest in a YYYYYYYY private placement that was a competitor to a JJJJJJJJJJ deal Itszler wanted Elton to invest in. Therefore, could you be so kind to forward this to Mr. Yyyyyy and ask him to confirm the # of days over last 2 weeks he can recall Itzler was seen in gym or adjoining areas that players use. And if Mr. Yyyyyy can review any security cam coverage during days Mr. Brand was using facilities, and try to determine if he can confirm Itzler had contact that appears to show attempts to "pressure" "threaten" or "promote" Mr. Brand. Simultaneously, as Mr. Yyyyyy looks into this, can u introduce me to Senior Zzzzzz via email to alert

the Hawk lawyers to this matter, and provide me with their contact info to further discuss their views on this potential unhealthy interaction, and how to protect players like Mr. Brand while on Hawk facilities. Or at least vet background of "promoters" that are likely to pitch high risk investments to players. And provide guidelines to nonplayers that want to make solicitations to players while on Hawk premises. Including Hawk GC providing highly visible warnings or regular briefings that Hawks have no affiliation with Itzler offerings. Thanks

Best Regards (EXHIBIT E) From PPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP Mr. YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY As mentioned in an earlier email, I will return to my office tomorrow. Are you available to come to my office tomorrow to discuss this matter? If so, please provide me with a couple of time periods when you are available to meet with me. I look forward to discussing this matter with you. PPPPPPPPPPPPP
