August 30, 2012 Opinion or Order Filing 390 MEMORANDUM: Therefore, applying New York choice of law principles to this case, the Court concludes that New York has greater interests in this action than Bermuda, and thus that New York law applies to the Trustee's claims. Accordingly, the Court, reaffirming its "bottom line" Order of July 27, 2012, hereby denies defendant's motion for summary judgment. As previously indicated, trial will begin on September 4, 2012, at 9 A.M. (Signed by Judge Jed S. Rakoff on 8/29/2012) Filed In Associated Cases: 1:07-md-01902-JSR, 1:07-cv-08165-JSR(lmb)

January 21, 2010 Opinion or Order Filing 145 CASE MANAGEMENT ORDER NO. 12. The Court hereby orders that the allocation between the two committees remain equally divided. The parties agree that in monetary terms the amount in dispute is modest. Since the Court will, if appropriate, reallocate the division of contributions at the close of the case, no reason has been suggested to the Court that the amount here in dispute is sufficiently material to warrant changing the arrangements already in place. Likewise, the Court finds unpersuasive the arguments of counsel for the EMF Parties to tamper with the allocations presently in place within the defendants group, which were brought about only after extensive negotiations and have been accepted by almost all defendants. Again, however, the Court emphasizes that the current allocations are subject to subsequent reallocation at the close of the case if warranted. (Signed by Judge Jed S.

December 17, 2009 Opinion or Order Filing 139 CASE MANAGEMENT ORDER #10. Pursuant to Case Management Order #6, the Case Accountant established an interest-bearing account in which to hold funds contributed by the Plaintiffs' and Defendants' Coordinating Committees. However, the Court has been advised by the Case Accountant that the cost of preparing the required tax return on an interest-bearing account will exceed the income earned by that account at its current interest rate of 0.4%. Therefore, the Court directs that, prior to January 1, 2010, the Case Account transfer the case-related funds to a non-interest-bearing account. Should interest rates rise sufficiently to change this calculus, the Court will revisit the issue. (Signed by Judge Jed S. Rakoff on 12/16/09) Filed In Associated Cases: 1:07-md-01902-JSR et al.(rjm)

October 29, 2009 Opinion or Order Filing 114 CASE MANAGEMENT ORDER No. 2. After considering the submissions of the parties, the Court is tentatively of the view that, given the considerable complexity of the group of cases here joined under the umbrella of In re Refco Securities Litigation, the Court should appoint two Special Masters: Professor Daniel Capra (the candidate proposed by several of the parties) to handle and issue Reports and Recommendations on all substantive motions, and the Honorable Ronald Hedges, former Magistrate Judge of the District of New Jersey, to handle all case management matters, resolve discovery disputes, decide non-substantive motions, and handle all miscellaneous matters not handled by the Court. If any party has any objection to this proposal, such party should raise the objection at the in-court conference being held tomorrow at 9:30AM. Professor Capra's time will be billed at $500/hour and Judge Hedges' time will be billed at the reduced rate of $400/hour. They will also be authorized to each hire an associate attorney to assist them at a rate not to exceed $300.00 per hour. Since these charges will be borne by the parties and must be paid promptly on a monthly basis, the Court's tentative plan is to create a fund for this purpose, to which contributions would initially be made equally by plaintiffs and defendants, subject to reallocation at the conclusion of the case. If any party has any objection to this proposal or has an alternative payment proposal, such party, again, should raise such matter at tomorrow's in-court conference. In-Court Conference set for 10/30/2009 at 09:30 AM before Judge Jed S. Rakoff. (Signed by Judge Jed S. Rakoff on 10/29/09) Filed In Associated Cases: 1:07-md-01902-JSR et al.(rjm)

October 9, 2009 Opinion or Order Filing 111 CASE MANAGEMENT ORDER NO. 1. This complicated group of related cases has now been reassigned to the undersigned from the Honorable Gerard E. Lynch following his elevation to the Second Circuit Court of Appeals. Accordingly, the Court will convene a status conference on Friday, October 30, 2009 at 9:30AM in courtroom 14-B of the United States Courthouse, 500 Pearl Street, New York, NY 10007. Counsel for each and every party to each and every lawsuit in this MDL (the full list of which is here attached) must appear in person at the conference unless they have previously advised the Court, by letter mailed no later than October 21, 2009, that they have delegated all authority to another counsel for all matters likely to arise at the conference (which will include apprising the Court of the status of each case, including any outstanding motions, discovery, and the like, and will also include setting case management schedules for each case, which mayor may not accord with schedules previously set). In this connection, counsel for similarly situated parties are strongly urged to arrange among themselves for liaison counsel authorized to be their representatives with the Court for most purposes, as well as a coordinating group of counsel who can have authority over common issues, failing which the Court will appoint liaisons and coordinators. It appears to the Court in this regard that the cases appear to be grouped in the following general categories: shareholder actions, customer actions, insurer actions, Krys actions, and Miller actions. Proposals for nomination of such liaisons and coordinators, as well as suggestions as to how they shall be organized and paid, should be forwarded to the Court by letters mailed no later than October 21, 2009. Given the number, breadth, and complexity of these cases, the Court is convinced that a Special Master, having substantial authority over the coordination of these cases, needs to be appointed to address the kinds of matters specified in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 53(a) (1). At the same time, the Court is convinced that the duties of such a Special Master can be accomplished by a single individual assisted by no more than one associate so that the fees and expenses of such a Special Master, which will be borne by the parties, are carefully contained. The Court is already considering several candidates for the role of Special Master, but would also welcome suggestions from the parties pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 53 (b) (1). Such suggestions, including appropriate background materials and confirmation that no conflicts are present, should be submitted by either the proposers or the candidates to the Court by letters mailed no later than October 21, 2009. After hearing argument, the Court expects to appoint such a Special Master at the conference scheduled for October 30, 2009. Status Conference set for 10/30/2009 at 09:30 AM in Courtroom 14B, 500 Pearl Street, New York, NY 10007 before Judge Jed S. Rakoff. (Signed by Judge Jed S.
