Plaintiff, between 2006 and 2012, was trafficked to Jeffrey Epstein's Island on Little Saint James on more than twenty occasions. On each occasion she was forced to engage in commercial sex. 97. On one occasion on the Island, Plaintiff posted a publicly readable social media post indicating that she was on the island. The next morning, Jeffrey Epstein woke her while holding her wrists tightly. He was in a state of great anger. His laptop computer was open. He began questioning her, stating, "Why did you make this post? Who has read it? What have you told them?" At the end of the angry conversation, Jeffrey Epstein threatened Plaintiff and commanded her never to tell anyone about the commercial sex acts in which he was making Plaintiff engage, and never to tell her mother of her activities with Jeffrey Epstein. As punishment for the post she had made, Jeffrey Epstein did not speak with Plaintiff for a month. 98. Jeffrey Epstein sent Plaintiff back to New York without paying her for any of the commercial sex acts she had engaged in with him on the island on a daily basis over the course of approximately one week. 99. Plaintiff, from that point forward in 2007, was in fear for her safety and her life and knew that strict compliance with the dictates of this very powerful man 21 3501.484-002 Page 21 of 70 SUBJECT TO PROTECTIVE ORDER PARAGRAPHS 7, 8, 9, 10, 15, and 17 EFTA_00095927 EFTA01250001

Case 1:19-cv-07772-ALC-DCF Document 1 Filed 08/20/19 Page 22 of 52 was required as a condition of her maintaining her safety and her life. Epstein, in a show of his anger and power, kicked Plaintiff out of her living quarters, essentially rendering her homeless overnight. At the same time, Epstein informed Plaintiff that she was forbidden to tell anyone about him or the sexual activities he was engaging in with her. 100. In order to cause Plaintiff to continue to engage in commercial sexual activity, Jeffrey Epstein made it known that he was close friends with other powerful and influential people. 101. Jeffrey Epstein commonly bragged to Plaintiff that Bill Clinton, Donald Trump, Prince Andrew, and the Sultan of Dubai were among his closest friends. 102. Plaintiff overhead Jeffrey Epstein talking with the Sultan of Dubai and on one occasion met him in person, supporting Jeffrey Epstein's statements that he was closely associated with this and other powerful friends. 103. Plaintiff observed photographs of Jeffrey Epstein and Bill Clinton together and heard Jeffrey Epstein talk about times when Clinton was on his private island in Little Saint James. Plaintiff never saw Bill Clinton on the island. 104. As Plaintiff was trying to distance herself from Jeffrey Epstein, he called her into his massage room and warned her not to lie to him or there would be serious repercussions. He threatened her with these repercussions in order to cause her to continue to engage in commercial sex. Epstein worked with the people and 22 3501.484-002 Page 22 of 70 SUBJECT TO PROTECTIVE ORDER PARAGRAPHS 7, 8, 9, 10, 15, and 17 EFTA_00095928 EFTA01250002

On one occasion, Jeffrey Epstein forced Plaintiff to serve hors d'oeuvres at Epstein's private party with Woody Allen. This server's role was forced upon Plaintiff in order to demean her, frighten her, and impress upon her the need for her to conceal the commercial sex trafficking enterprise he was running. 106. Jeffrey Epstein constantly told Plaintiff that her opportunities were endless as long as she complied with his dictates but that he could take it all away from her if she did not. 107. There came a time when Jeffrey Epstein forced Plaintiff to give other powerful friends massages. During some of these massages she was sexually abused, by force, against her will, by the friends whom she had been required to massage. 108. Plaintiff, trying desperately to leave the proximity and influence of Jeffrey Epstein, failed to show up for multiple appointments at his mansion. Associate 1 contacted Plaintiff on behalf of Epstein and told her that Jeffrey Epstein was very upset with Plaintiff's behavior. This warning caused Plaintiff to experience extreme fear and anxiety for her safety and her life. This fear and anxiety ultimately had its intended effect and Plaintiff returned to Jefferey Epstein's mansion to continue to engage in commercial sex acts. 23 3501.484-002 Page 23 of 70 SUBJECT TO PROTECTIVE ORDER PARAGRAPHS 7, 8, 9, 10, 15, and 17 EFTA_00095929 EFTA01250003

Jeffrey Epstein informed Plaintiff again that her career opportunities were endless as long as she complied with his demands. 110. Jeffrey Epstein instructed Plaintiff in 2011 that he was putting her through massage school and she had no choice but to attend. 111. While she was in massage school, Jeffrey Epstein constantly asked Plaintiff to recruit other young females from the massage school and became angry and threatening when she refused to do so. 112. Jeffrey Epstein forced Plaintiff to wear certain color panties, remove certain body piercings, and undergo surgery by Jeffrey Epstein's doctors to remove body moles. Plaintiff complied with these demands with the understanding, conveyed to her by Epstein, that she had no other choice. . 113. From 2006 through 2012, Jeffrey Epstein and his associates and employees recruited, enticed, harbored, transported, provided, obtained, maintained, and solicited Plaintiff knowing that force, threat of force, fraud or coercion would be used to compel Plaintiff to engage in commercial sex acts. 114. The commercial sex acts included intercourse, the use of sex toys inserted inside Plaintiff, digital penetration, forcible touching and many other sexual acts. 115. Plaintiff was made to engage in commercial sex acts in New York every year from 2006 to 2012 (except for a brief period of time in late 2008 through 2009 24 3501.484-002 Page 24 of 70 SUBJECT TO PROTECTIVE ORDER PARAGRAPHS 7, 8, 9, 10, 15, and 17 EFTA_00095930 EFTA01250004

There were sexual acts in addition to those described above which acts are too graphic and perverted to detail in the complaint. Each and all of such acts were required by Jeffrey Epstein and his Corporate Defendants, all of whom worked together to cause Plaintiff to engage in such acts, including Defendants' informing her that if she refused to engage in such acts she would suffer serious harm. 117. In order to maintain Plaintiff's compliance, Defendant Jeffrey Epstein also informed Plaintiff that he would use his vast resources to get Plaintiff's relative the serious medical care she needed, further enticing Plaintiff through fraud to engage in commercial sex acts. 118. Multiple associates, employees, and corporate entities assisted Defendants in causing Plaintiff to engage in commercial sex acts knowing fraud would be used to cause her to continue to engage in such acts. This assistance included making promises, scheduling medical appointments or promising to schedule medical appointments, promising medical care to Plaintiff's close relative, 25 3501.484-002 Page 25 of 70 SUBJECT TO PROTECTIVE ORDER PARAGRAPHS 7, 8, 9, 10, 15, and 17 EFTA_00095931 EFTA01250005

In order to cause Plaintiff to engage in each commercial sex act, Epstein and his co-conspirators, associates, employees and related corporate entities, including Corporate Defendants, used coercion, and knew that coercion would be used, in order to cause Plaintiff to engage in such acts. 120. Epstein and various associates, employees, and related corporations and employees, including Corporate Defendants, worked in concert together as an enterprise with extraordinary power, wealth, and resources capable of affecting Plaintiff's life in positive or negative ways depending on her level of cooperation, all while knowingly conveying these promises and threats to Plaintiff. 121. Epstein and others associated with Epstein, including employees of Defendant HBRK, bragged about Epstein's unusual political and powerful connections and his ability to obtain education, housing, or medical needs for young females who cooperated with Epstein's sexual demands. 122. In addition to being explicitly reminded by Epstein, or one of his associates, of his extraordinary power to reward and punish Plaintiff, his power to do so was apparent to Plaintiff, inasmuch as: (I) she visited Epstein many times at 26 3501.484-002 Page 26 of 70 SUBJECT TO PROTECTIVE ORDER PARAGRAPHS 7, 8, 9, 10, 15, and 17 EFTA_00095932 EFTA01250006

Epstein from 1990 through December 23, 2011; and (4) she visited his private Island in the United States Virgin Islands, located at No. 6B Red Hook Quarter, U.S. Virgin Islands, previously owned by Defendant L.S.J., LLC prior to its having been deeded to Nautilus, Inc., a United States Virgin Islands corporation, on December 23, 2011. 123. Under Epstein's control were numerous companies with many employees and obvious resources, each of whom worked for the Epstein enterprise. While the individuals were employees of various Epstein related companies, including Defendant Corporations, it was clear through explicit words, actions and appearances that all such employees acted at Epstein's direction and for his protection. This team of individuals included chefs, butlers, receptionists, schedulers, secretaries, flight attendants, pilots, housekeepers, maids, sex recruiters, drivers and other staff members. 27 3501.484-002 Page 27 of 70 SUBJECT TO PROTECTIVE ORDER PARAGRAPHS 7, 8, 9, 10, 15, and 17 EFTA_00095933 EFTA01250007

Case 1:19-cv-07772-ALC-DCF Document 1 Filed 08/20/19 Page 28 of 52 124. Each of the employees and associates were paid through companies believed to have been funded by Jeffrey Epstein and, regardless of such funding, were disciples of Jeffrey Epstein, constantly informing Plaintiff and other victims of Jeffrey Epstein's power and ability to improve or destroy a victim's life depending on her level of cooperation. 125. The main and in many instances only function of each of the associates who acted at the instruction or direction of Epstein was to recruit, entice, harbor, transport, provide, obtain, maintain, or solicit young females, knowing that fraud or coercion would be used to cause each female, including Plaintiff, to engage in a commercial sex act. 126. Each such associate described above was also employed to perform functions in order to avoid detection of the illegality of Epstein's commercial sex trafficking and to forever conceal the enterprise. 127. One significant element of the sex trafficking scheme—a scheme used to compel commercial sex acts of young females, including Plaintiff—was its design and effort to avoid detection. This concealment was furthered by the enterprise's design, actions, and patterns of behavior which caused Plaintiff and others similarly situated to believe that failure to perform acts required by the scheme would result in serious psychological, financial, or reputational harm. 28 3501.484-002 Page 28 of 70 SUBJECT TO PROTECTIVE ORDER PARAGRAPHS 7, 8, 9, 10, 15, and 17 EFTA_00095934 EFTA01250008

The scheme included frequent statements to Plaintiff and other victims by Jeffrey Epstein and his associates, including employees of Defendant HBRK, that: (1) Jeffery Epstein was of extraordinary wealth, power and influence; (2) Jeffrey Epstein's business and political friends, including world leaders, included some of the most powerful people in the world; (3) the scheme or plan was designed to constantly grow the number of victims through the recruitment of other victims; (4) Jeffrey Epstein had the ability to advance or destroy nearly anyone financially, reputationally, or otherwise; (5) medical and normal life necessities would be denied victims if they, including Plaintiff, failed to perform commercial sex acts for Epstein; and (6) Epstein could take away Plaintiff's and other victims' life needs such as shelter or housing if she or they failed to perform those acts. 129. Jeffrey Epstein bragged about knowing some of the world's most powerful people; introduced some of them to Plaintiff; and required Plaintiff to perform sexual massages on some of them. These circumstances caused Plaintiff to believe that Jeffrey Epstein and his organization was powerful enough to cause her serious harm if she did not strictly follow his and their demands.
