In October 2013, Hunter Biden’s associates (including Devon Archer) discussed which one of their corporate vehicles would be appropriate for a new deal they were working. Archer noted their need to use a “Rosemont Seneca SPV” (also known as a special purpose vehicle) because Rosemont Capital was too close to the Heinz family and because using an SPV could “bring Hunter into the mix.” Archer explained his desire “to leverage Hunter more” in a way that didn’t involve Heinz who Archer called “much

Very interesting. Let's discuss today.
(One subtlety is that | think we want to do with Rosemont Seneca SPV. It won't make a difference on economics
ther than we bring Hunter into the mix a litte but without a commitment. | want to leverage Hunter more and he's a
900d guy for us to include.

adam brought me a deal called Spin Media. his former employee Is the newly appointed CEO. we have an inside
track to take it over for ZERO plus a forward conditional commitment fo $20MM. we would not ever fund the
20MM however, given the plan of the CEO to bring headcount from 140 to 70.
Dale Strang is currently CEO of Viximo, the largest social game distribution
platform connecting game developers with social networks outside of Facebook.
Prior to joining Viximo, Strang most recently served as president and co-founder
of venture backed online ad network 5to1.com. Before 5to1, Strang spent three
years as executive vice president & general manager of IGN Entertainment
where he led the company to more than 300% revenue growth (over 2+ years),
and was a member of the executive team that presented and sold the company
to Fox Interactive Media in 2005. Before IGN, he served eight years as
executive vice president and publisher of Ziff Davis Media
the company does about $48MM a year. it owns a large number of sites. take a look.

they also own Spin Magazine. there are some music contacts that i can exploit on this.Se ee | Oe mR ee BO OI SSS Oe Sor ESET EP OY Oe Oe COTE OY ae OE OY
based on a future promise to invest that is highly conditional
the business plan would be to get control and take it public in an S-1. comps are in the 5-6x revenue range. let
your hamster math calculate that for you.
what we need as you will see from weiss’ email below is Rosemont to front it. we can do a rosemont SPV to ring
fence it.
adam cant do it without us. 150+ milion in paper to cut upif done right
let me know, i wil do all the work. the greek has a lot of bandwidth,
