Mr. Alston:

Hope you are doing well.

Checking in to see if you had a moment to to review xNY.io's whitepaper.

We would like to engage the New York False Claims Act under urgent pretences. Specifically, regarding a RICO barred by the five year market manipulation statute of limitations.

Please let me know what NY-DFS Bank Applications Special Projects thinks of this approach.

Warm regards,

Gunnar

Dear Mr. Alston:

Thank you again for our call yesterday. Congratulations on your new special projects role at NY-DFS Bank Applications.

xNY.io - Bank.org is proud to be an innovative endeavor out of New York State. The New York False Claims Act is designed to combat false information that can lead to marketplace manipulation. Every New Yorker has the right to ask the State for approval to explore the New York False Claims Act.

Mr. Alston, yesterday you mentioned not having read xNY.io's whitepaper. As such, please find it attached to this email: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1aeK8X8-2KDZ8tQPN5ksaUCXcxH9tbjexsUbW1olf... <https://gcc02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fdocs.google.com%2Fdocument%2Fd%2F1aeK8X8-2KDZ8tQPN5ksaUCXcxH9tbjexsUbW1olfeW4%2Fedit%3Fusp%3Ddrivesdk&data=05%7C01%7CCathy.Weintraub%40dfs.ny.gov%7Cc71c48274363411a5b7908db1436f230%7Cf46cb8ea79004d108ceb80e8c1c81ee7%7C0%7C0%7C638125999393446228%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=LH4i9ptejq3IW0o56rmYE%2FZrJfrbvOOCsFB1R5IavNM%3D&reserved=0> .

xNY.io - Bank.org would like to earn the State's approval to engage the False Claims Act by end of week next week. Given the statute of limitations associated with market manipulation. We feel xNY.io's whitepaper is probably one of the best papers in the world for this sort of thing.

You may have some questions about our approach. Keeping this in mind, I will give you a call on Monday so we can discuss this more. Yes, I understand Monday is President's Day.

Wishing you a terrific weekend ahead.

Thank you,

Gunnar
