Summary

Heather Schoeppe reports that an account was opened that day for Blue Flame Medical and Mike Gula, who expected a wire of 450 Million from the State of California for N95 masks from China.

Importance: High

John and Joanna,

We opened and account today for Blue Flame Medical/Mike Gula and he is expecting a wire in today for 450 Million from the
State of California. Mike Gula said the Governor of California just announced that California is buying 100 Million N95 masks
from China and will be deploying them. Mike’s company Blue Flame Medical received the contract. He said the money
should be in today and will be spent out fairly rapidly as China produces the masks and they pay them. He said he

understands that the timing is important to us and can give us more information tomorrow on the timing of payments out of
the account.

| will call you right away, but wanted you to see this in case | can’t reach you immediately.

Thanks,
Heather

Anything of that size would need to be known on the front end Shcause that’s half our asset size and could be problems on
our capital ratios.

Please reach out to confirm and let’s talk with John and Joanna if it turns out to be something that massive.

He actually said 450 million. | was hoping Maria knew about it already b/c it is pretty crazy and would explain
why he is going crazy today. If not, then maybe someone should reach out to discuss further to see what it’s all
about and the timeline of how long it will be here. I’m happy to do it if you want.
