All communications and documents (including drafts) exchanged between and among any of the defendants in the Adversary Proceedings listed on Exhibit A, and/or their respective attorneys, shall be deemed to be privileged communications and/or work product, as the case may be, subject to a joint interest privilege; 11.) This Order is without prejudice to any and all grounds for withdrawal of the reference (other than the Withdrawn Standing and SLUSA Issues) raised in the Adversary Proceedings by the Standing and SLUSA Withdrawal Defendants, all of which are preserved; 12.) Nothing in this Order shall: (a) waive or resolve any issue raised by any party other than the withdrawal of the reference solely with respect to the Standing and SLUSA Issues; (b) limit, restrict or impair any defense or argument that has been raised or could be raised by any Standing and SLUSA Withdrawal Defendant in a motion to dismiss under Fed. R. Civ. P. 12 or Fed. R. Bankr. P. 7012, or any other defense or right of any nature available to any Standing and SLUSA Withdrawal Defendant (including, without limitation, all defenses based on lack of personal jurisdiction or insufficient service of process), or any argument or defense that could be raised by the Trustee or SIPC in response thereto; and (c) be deemed or construed as the submission of a motion to dismiss under Fed.

The procedures established by this Order shall constitute the sole and exclusive procedures for determination of the Withdrawn Standing and SLUSA Issues in the Adversary Proceedings, and this Court shall be the forum for such determination. To the extent that briefing or argument schedules were previously established with respect to the Withdrawn Standing and SLUSA Issues in any of the Adversary Proceedings, this Order supersedes all such schedules solely with respect to the Withdrawn Standing and SLUSA Issues. To the extent that briefing or argument schedules are prospectively established with respect to motions to withdraw the reference or motions to dismiss in any of the Adversary Proceedings, the Withdrawn Standing and SLUSA Issues shall be excluded from such briefing or argument. Except as stated in this paragraph, this Order shall not be deemed or construed to modify, withdraw or reverse any prior Order of the Court that granted withdrawal of the reference in any Adversary Proceeding for any reason. (Oral Argument set for 10/15/2012 at 04:00 PM before Judge Jed S. Rakoff.) (Signed by Judge Jed S. Rakoff on 5/15/2012) (jar)
