Dr. Rakhat Aliyev

Vienna Ankara Istanbul Sotia

Dear Mr. Cremona:

We would lilce to confirm that we have known Dr. Rakhat Aliyev since 2007 and that she
bas been maintaining business relations with our law offices since then. At ail times, the
reiationship bas been reliable and of mutual trust. As to Dr. Aliyevs reputation and per
sonal style, nothing negative is known to us.
We are well aware of the allegations raised against our client with respect to various
crimes of violence, money laundering and fraud. However, we have no reasons whatso
ever to believe that the allegations are true and correct. To die contrary, the evidence
submitted in the proceedings appears to us as inconsistent and manipulated for well
known. purely political reasons.

Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions regarding the above or oth
erwise.

Sincerely yours,

-KARASEKWIETRZYK
