The Honorable Victor Marero United States Distrct Judge United States District Cour Southern Distrct of New York 500 Pearl Street New York, New York 10007

Re: Anwar, et al.. V. Fairfeld Greenwich Limited, et at, 09-CV-00l1S (VM)
Dear Judge Marero:
We are interim co-lead counel for plaintiffs in the above Anwar action. We are the Consolidated Amended Complaint, and

writing in connection with the fiing today of

also with respect to the pending motion for remand in the Ferber and Pierce actions referenced below.

By Orders dated March 24, 2009 and March 31, 2009, the Cour consolidated

with the Anwar action two cases that were filed as derivative actions: Ferber v. Fairfield Greerrich Group, 09 CV 2366 (VM; and Pierce v. Fairfield Greerrich Group, 09 CV 2588 (VM). As the Court is aware, the cases that were initially consolidated into the Anwar action were all class actions assertng direct claims on behalf of the shareholders in two "feeder fuds" that channeled investments into Berard Madoffs Ponzi fraudFairfeld Sentr Limited (a British Virgin Islands (BVI) investment fund, which

supposedly had $7.3 bilion in assets) and Greenwich Sentr, L.P. (a Delaware limited
parership, which supposedly had $200 millon in assets).

It is our understading that when the Cour ordered the consolidation of the Ferber and Pierce actions into the Anwar action, Interim Co-Lead Counel were responsible for considering whether to assert not only direct claims on behalf of the
Funds' investors, but also any related derivative claims on behalf of

the Funds. The

Consolidated Amended Complaint that we are filing today continues to asser only direct
claims. Although we do not believe there would be any confict in assertg both direct

and derivative claims under the circwnstances in ths action, i we are not asserting

derivative claims at this tie pendig fuher developments (discussed below) with the Funds, while reservng the right to assert derivative claims respect to liquidation of
later if circwnstances warant.

Specifically, certn of our clients have commenced proceedings in the BVI for
the appointment of a liquidator for Fairfeld Sentr. The liquidator, if appointed, could

consider whether to assert claims on behalf of Faireld Sentr that would otherwse be
asserted in the Consolidated Amended Complaint as derivative clai on behf of the

Fund. Under BV! law, ajudicial determination must be mae prior to filing a dervative action that the case satisfies certin statutory requirements, including a showing that "the company does not intend to bring. . . the proceedings" as a direct claim. See § i 84C(3 iea) of the BVI Business Companies Act. Inasmuch as the Anwar plaintiffs anticipate that a liquidator wil be appointed, and may well assert direct claims on behalf of Fairfield Sentry, we are not assertng those Fairfield Sentr derivative claims at this
time.
Similarly, we believe it likely that proceedigs in the Delaware cour may lead to

appointment of a liquidator for Greenwich Sentr, who would be in a position to pursue
direct claims on behalf of that Fund. If

that occurs, asserton of derivative clais in this

action may be superfuous.

On the other hand, because the liquidation proceedings are just beginnng, it is possible that the BVI or Delaware courts may not make the anticipated appointments, or
that the liquidators may not assert direct claims on behalf of

the Funds. In that event, it

may be necessary for the Anwar plaitiffs to seek permssion to llend the Consolidated

Amended Complaint to assert derivative clais.
With respect to the motion to remand fied by the Milberg finn in the Ferber and Pierce cases, we take no position On whether removal was proper. We believe, however, that if the Ferber case remains in ths Cour, its consolidation with the Anwar of the proceedings is proper. We disagree with counsel's argument, at page 9 Memorandum of Law in Support of Its Motion to Remand (Docket No. 89), that any
conflct or other barier to assertion of derivati ve claims in a class action which also

raises direct claims of shareholders exists in the circumstces presented here. See note i above. In any event, the Cour need not decide that issue in ruling on the remand motion,
i See. e,g., Kane Assoc. Y. Cliford, 80 F.RD, 402, 407-08 (E.D.N.Y. i 978) ("To deny the possibilty of from ever( J mechanical rules excluding any derivative plaintiff representing a class suing the corporation might well, as a practical matter, deny both the class and the corporation the right to vindicate wrongs done against them in situations such as that alleged in the verified complaint to exist here.").

0118 CVM)

Hon. Victor Marero United States Distrct Judge Daniel Patrick Moynhan
United States Courhouse

500 Pearl St. New York, NY 10007-1312

Dear Judge Marero:
We represent defendant Fairfield Greenwich Advisors LLC ("FGA") and other defendants in Morning Mist Holdings Ltd. et ai. v. Fairfield Greenwich Group et ai., Docket No. 09 CV 5012 ("Morning Mist"). We wrte in response to Mr. Wallner's letter to the Cour of earlier today opposing our request for consolidation of Morning Mist into Anwar et al. v. Fairfield Greenwich Limited, et ai., Docket No. 09 CV 0118 ("Anwar").

Plaintifs in Morning Mist oppose consolidation on the ground that Morning Mist is a derivative action and Anwar is a class action. But in so doing, Plaitiffs ignore the fact that this Cour has already consolidated into Anwar two other substatially similar derivative
actions - Pierce et ai. V. Fairfield Greenwich Group, et ai., Docket No. 09 CV 2588

("Pierce"), and David 1. Ferber SEP IRA v. Fairfield Greenwich Group, et ai., Docket No. 09 CV 2366 ("Ferber"). Plaintiffs in Morning Mist - who are represented by the same
counsel as plaitiffs in Pierce and Ferber - fail to provide any valid reason why the

consolidation directed by the Cour in Pierce and Ferber should not also be directed by the Cour in Morning Mist.
Contrar to Plaintifs' suggestion, this Cour has ample authority to consolidate

derivative and class actions. See e.g., Glauser v. EVC! Career Colleges Holding Corp., 236 Defendants' F.R.D. 184, 186 (S.D.N.Y. 2006) ("The derivative suit, which also arses out of alleged false and misleading statements about EVCl s earngs and enrollment, is consolidated with the class actions for discovery purposes. The Cour will consider at a later date whether it wil be consolidated for trial as well."); Baughman v. Pall Corp., 250 F.R.D.

121, 129-30 (B.D.N.Y. 2008) (consolidating shareholder derivative action with class actions
for puroses of discovery); In re IACIInterAcliveCorp Secs. Lilig., 478 F. Supp. 2d 574, 577

(S.D.N.Y. 2007) (consolidating shareholder derivative actions with class action suit for pretrial puroses).

Plaintiffs' other basis for opposing consolidation - that they have sued defendants not named in Anwar, includig PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP - is unavailing. First, consolidation does not require complete overlap in pares, and Plaintiffs point to no authority so suggesting. See In re Fuwei Films Sec. Lilig., 247 F.R.D. 432, 435 (S.D.N.Y. Jan, 24, 2008) (holding that the existence of additional defendants does not preclude consolidation); Pinkowitz v. Elan Corp., PLC, 2002 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 14593 (S.D.N.Y. July 29,2002) ("(C)onsolidation is not bared simply because the actions to be consolidated allege claims agaist different paries.").
Furtermore, the Court has already consolidated into Anwar four other actions

asserting claims against PricewaterhouseCoopers ("PwC"): Pierce, Ferber, Knight Services Holdings Limited v. Fairfield Sentr Limited, et aI., 09 CV 2169, and Zohar v. Fairfield Greenwich Group, 09 CV 4031. Counsel for PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP has already appeared in and is actively litigating the Anwar action. See Docket Nos. 147-153 (Kirkland & Ells LLP appearing on behalf ofPwC); See Letter from Robert A. Wallner to Timothy Duffy, dated May 22, 2009 (demanding that PwC make its initial disclosurs); Letter from Timothy Duff to Robert A. Wallner, dated May 28, 2009 (rejecting plaintiffs' demand on the ground that PwC's initial disclosures were not yet due).
Anwar contemplates Finally, nothng in the Cour's Consolidation Order in postponing briefing and/or a decision on consolidation until after a motion to remand is decided.

For the foregoing reasons, we believe it is clear that consolidation of Morning Mist
into Anwar is appropriate at ths time.

Hon. Victor Marrero United States District Judge Daniel Patrick Moynihan United States Courhouse 500 Pearl St. New York, NY 10007-1312

Dear Judge Marero:
We represent defendant Fairfeld Greenwich Advisors LLC ("FGA") and other defendants in Anwar el ai. v. Fairfield Greenwich Limited, et aI., Docket No. 09 CY 0118 ("Anwar"). We write in response to the letter to the Cour of earlier today from Robert Wallner, counsel for plaintiffs in David 1. Ferber SEP IRA v. Fairfield Greenwich Group, et aI., Docket No. 09 CY 2366 ("Ferber"), Pierce et al. v. Fairfield Greenwich Group, et al., Docket No. 09 CV 2588 ("Pierce"), and Morning Mist Holdings Ltd. et al. v. Fairfield Greenwich Group et al., Docket No. 09 CY 5012 ("Morning Mist"), which the Court consolidated into Anwar on March 24, 2009, March 31,2009, and June 9, 2009,1 respectively (collectivcly, the "Consolidated Derivative Cases").
On June 8, 2009, the Court-appointed Interim Co-Lead Counsel and counsel for defendants in Anwar submitted to the Court a stipulation pursuant to which defendants consented to the service and fiing by plaintiffs of a Second Consolidated Amended Complaint and agreed that defendants' time to answer, move against or otherwise respond to any complaint in Anwar would be adjoumed until 45 days after service by plaintifts of a Second Consolidated Amended Complaint (the "Stipulation"). For the Court's convenience, a copy ofthe Stipulation is attached hereto.

Mr. Wallner opposes the Stipulation to the extent it applies to "any complaint" in
Anwar, including the complaints tiled in the Consolidated Derivative Cases. Mr. Wallner's the Court's Januar 30, 2009 Consolidation Order position is contrar to the clear terms of

i Mr. Wallner's letter was submitted prior to the Court's order consolidating Morning Mist.

and Order for Appointment of Interim Co-Lead Counsel (the "Consolidation Order") and the Cour's March 11,2009 Civil Case Management Plan and Scheduling Order in (the "CMO").
the Anwar CMO, which provides that "Defendants shall respond only to the Consolidated Amended Complaint; no response by Defendants is due to any individual complaints that are
First, Mr. Wallner's objection ignores the unambiguous terms of

consolidated into the Consolidated Action." CMO, 6. No response to the complaints in the Consolidated Derivative Cases is required, and Mr. Wallner's opposition to the Stipulation to the extent it applies to those complaints is misguided.
Second, Mr. Wallner's asscrtion that the Stipulation is objectionable because the Consolidated Amended Complaint in Anwar does not assert derivative claims is unfounded. Pursuant to the Consolidation Order, the Court designated "Lovell Stewar Halebian LLP, Wolf Popper LLP and Boies, Schiller & Flexner LLP as Interim Co-Lead Counsel to act on behalf of all Plaintifs in the consolidated cases. . ." Consolidation Order at 5, , 12 (emphasis added); see also Consolidation Order at 5," 14-15. Interim Co-Lead Counsel has clear authority to act on behalf of plaintiffs in the Consolidated Derivative Cases and determine what claims to pursue on behalf of all plaintiffs in Anwar. Indeed, the Court designated Interim Co-Lead Counsel in order to organize plaintiffs' counsel and avoid precisely the type of divisiveness and confusion reflected in Mr. Wallner's letter. Moreover, while the Consolidated Amended Complaint does not assert derivative claims, Interim CoLead Counsel has advised us that they are considering asserting such claims in the Second Consolidated Amended Complaint.

For the foregoing reasons, we believe that Mr. Wallner's opposition to the Stipulation is without merit and we respectfully maintain our request that the Court so-order
thc Stipulation.
