NAMED IN A COURT FILING. SAC para 42: payments from JPMorgan accounts of nearly $1.5 million to known recruiters, 'including to the MC2 modeling agency', plus $150,000 to a private investigative firm. SAC para 48 quotes JPMorgan's own March 2011 security report: 'MC2 Model Management received $1 million from Epstein in 2005. It is unknown if the money was given as a secret investment or payment for services as a procurer.' NOT YET VERIFIED against any corporate registry — jurisdiction assumed NY, unconfirmed.

2026-09-07 (phone sweep): NY DOS negative. MC2 was Jean-Luc Brunel's modeling agency (Epstein-funded per public reporting) — a COUNTERPARTY/ASSOCIATE entity, not a wholly-Epstein one; handled like [withheld third party]/MC2-class, not the core register. May be foreign-registered or purged; DE/FL optional. Do not assert Epstein ownership/control.

FL CORPORATE RECORD (verified 2026-09-11, FL Sunbiz doc L03000049345): the MC2 agency's Florida corporate vehicle is MC2 Model and Talent Miami LLC (f/k/a MC2 Models Miami, LLC), a Florida LLC formed 2003-12-02, EIN 33-1078207, administratively dissolved 2021-09-24 for failure to file its annual report; principal/mailing 6001 SW 70th St Ste 101, South Miami FL 33134 (address changed 2020-01-16); registered agent Bello & Martinez PLLC. Corrects the earlier 'jurisdiction assumed NY' (NY DOS was negative) - the documented registration is Florida. NOTE: JPMorgan's 2011 report / USVI SAC name the agency 'MC2 Model Management'; whether this specific FL LLC is the exact entity that received the $1 million from Epstein in 2005 is not established here - recorded as MC2's Miami corporate vehicle. Reporting's 'dissolved Sept 27 2019' does not match the Sunbiz admin-dissolution date (2021-09-24) and may refer to a cessation of operations or a different MC2 entity.

DOCUMENTED CORPORATE LINEAGE (verified 2026-09-11 from FL Sunbiz filing images, doc L03000049345): the entity was organized 2003-12-02 as KARIN MODELS USA, LLC (principal 846 Lincoln Road, 3rd Floor, Miami Beach FL); renamed to MC2 MODELS MIAMI, LLC by Articles of Amendment adopted 2005-09-02 (filing H05000210901); renamed again to MC2 MODEL AND TALENT MIAMI LLC by Articles of Amendment filed August 2011; administratively dissolved 2021-09-24. The original name KARIN MODELS USA, LLC ties this entity to the Karin Models agency that Jean-Luc Brunel ran before MC2 - documentary corporate continuity of the Karin-to-MC2 transformation described in the USVI v. JPMorgan complaint. Source: FL Sunbiz images (Articles of Organization 2003-12-02; Articles of Amendment 2005-09-02; Articles of Amendment 2011; 2020 Annual Report).
