ORDER terminating 589 Motion for Sanctions. As stated at yesterday's hearing, the court's ruling regarding plaintiffs' motions for discovery sanctions is as follows: "The Court finds that the Republic of Argentina has failed to comply with the September 25, 2013 discovery order as it relates to assets of the Republic. The Court further imposes the following sanction for such failure. The following is the sanction: any property of the Republic in the United States except diplomatic or military property is deemed to be used for commercial activity. The Court further holds that if the Republic is claiming a privilege as to any documents or information required to be produced under the discovery order of September 25, 2013, it is directed to prepare and deliver within 10 days of today a privilege log on a document-by-document basis. Failure to do so will be deemed to be a waiver of the claim of privilege. The Court makes no determination at this time as to sanctions, if any, with respect to the alter ego issue."

ORDER: It is hereby ORDERED that: Absent further order of this Court or confirmation that a Ratable Payment has been or is being made in compliance with the Amended February 23, 2012 Orders of the Court (the "Injunction"), Euroclear will not process any payments received from any source, including but not limited to Nacion Fideicomisos S.A. and Caja de Valores, in respect of any bonds subject to the Injunction, and will hold any such payments in suspension pending a ruling from this Court on their proper disposition, and; Before any bonds subject to the Injunction and held by Euroclear or a Euroclear depositary or nominee are transferred from Euroclear or a Euroclear depositary or nominee, or the custodial location of such bonds is changed, Euroclear shall provide notice of the proposed transfer, including but not limited to the date of the proposed transfer, the identity of the proposed transferee and other particulars regarding the transfer that are known to Euroclear, to Plaintiffs' counsel at least thirty days in advance of the proposed transfer, except that if it is not reasonably practicable for Euroclear to provide such notice at least thirty days in advance through no fault of Euroclear, Euroclear will provide the notice as soon as reasonably practicable. Should Euroclear violate the terms of this Order, Plaintiffs shall be free to compel prompt compliance with the above-referenced Subpoenas, and to seek any other just and proper relief against Euroclear as to which they may be entitled, subject to any and all rights or defenses Euroclear may have. SO ORDERED. (Signed by Judge Thomas P. Griesa on 3/25/2015) (kl) (Entered: 03/25/2015)
STIPULATION AND ORDER: It is hereby STIPULATED and AGREED: Citibank waives and foregoes any and all (i) rights of appeal with respect to the Court's July 28, 2014 Order, March 12, 2015 Opinion and Order, and March 16, 2015 Order; and (ii) rights to seek a stay, without the consent of plaintiffs in the above-captioned actions ("Plaintiffs"), from any court with respect to any part of the July 28, 2014 Order, the March 12, 2015 Opinion and Order, or the Injunction. The U.S. Dollar Argentine Law Exchange Bonds bear International Security Identification Numbers ("ISINs") ARARGE03E097, ARARGE03E113, ARARGE03G704, ARARGE03G688, and ARARGE03E154. If the Republic of Argentina (the "Republic") pays some or all of the March 31, 2015 interest payment on the U.S. Dollar Argentine Law Exchange Bonds with ISINs ARARGE03E097 and ARARGE03G704, without making a Ratable Payment as defined in the Injunction, and Citibank Argentina receives a portion of such payment on behalf of its customers (approximately $3.7 million), Citibank Argentina may process that payment in the ordinary course. Such permission shall only apply to Citibank Argentina, and shall not apply to any other party or participant in the payment process on such bonds. Citibank Argentina shall, no later than March 27, 20I5, provide to customers whose holdings account for at least 85% of the U.S. Dollar Argentine Law Exchange Bonds being held in custody by Citibank Argentina as of March 20, 2015 whatever notice may be required to terminate Citibank Argentina's custody relationship with such customers. By June 1, 2015, Citibank Argentina shall have either (1) reached an agreement with all customers whose holdings as of March 20, 2015 include U.S. Dollar Argentine Law Exchange Bonds to amend the terms of their custody agreements to exclude U.S. Dollar Argentine Law Exchange Bonds from the scope of Citibank Argentina's custody services, (2) sent termination notices to any such customers who have refused to amend the terms of their custody agreements, such that the required notice period for termination shall have expired prior to September 30, 2015, or (3) with respect to any such customers who have not agreed to amend the terms of their custody agreements and have not been sent termination notices, entered into an agreement in principle with one or more buyers to sell those portions of Citibank Argentina's custody business that include such customers' accounts (the "June 1 Requirement"), as further set forth herein.

ORDER: Citibank, N.A. has written the court requesting a stay of the court's opinion and order of March 12, 2015. The March 12th Opinion and Order upheld an earlier order which clarified that the injunction issued in this case prohibits Citibank from processing payments on the dollar-denominated exchange bonds governed by Argentine law. The court has received plaintiff's response to Citibank's request, and has also received additional submissions from both sides. Having considered all the arguments, and having also considered all factors pertinent to obtaining a stay, the court does not believe that a stay of the March 12th Opinion and Order is warranted. Therefore, Citibank's request for a stay of the March 12th Opinion and Order is hereby denied. SO ORDERED. (Signed by Judge Thomas P. Griesa on 3/16/2015) (kl) (Entered: 03/16/2015)

OPINION #105312: Citibank and the Republic have advanced three primary arguments in support of vacating the July 28th Order: (1) the exchange bonds governed by Argentine law should not be subject to the Injunction because they are not 5 "external indebtedness" of the Republic; (2) Citibank's Argentine branch should not be considered a "participant in the payment process" and therefore its dealings in Argentina should not implicate the Injunction; and (3) principles of comity weigh in favor of vacating the July 28th Order. As discussed, the operative paragraphs of the Injunction do not speak in terms of "external indebtedness," and as a result, Citibanks participation in making payments on exchange bonds is prohibited. This is true whether or not the exchange bonds are external indebtedness. Thus, payment on these exchange bonds would violate the Equal Treatment Provision of the FAA, providing an additional reason as to why the Injunction applies. Citibank is not an exchange bondholder, but rather a financial institution that processes payments initiated by the Republic and intended for and terminating with exchange bondholders. To rule otherwise, this court would have to adopt an overly narrow and technical reading of the term "participants," one at odds with the clear language of the Injunction and at odds with the court's intent in fashioning that Injunction. Comity does not suggest abrogating those judgments, or creating exceptions to the Injunction designed to enforce them. Rather, comity suggests that the Republic not penalize third parties, like Citibank, who must observe the orders of United States courts. For the reasons given above, the court denies Citibank's motion, by order to show cause, to vacate the July 28th Order. (Signed by Judge Thomas P.

ORDER granting 389 Motion. Pending before the Court is the fully briefed June 29, 2014 "Emergency Motion for Clarification" filed by the non-party "Euro Bondholders" (as defined in the "Notice of Emergency Motion for Clarification"), seeking an order concerning the Court's Amended February 23, 2012 Order, dated November 21, 2012 (the "Injunction"). Specifically, the Euro Bondholders ask for an order clarifying that the Injunction does not apply to certain third parties that process payments on Exchange Bonds, as defined in the Injunction. The Court declines to grant the requested order. To do so would start making important exceptions to the basic ruling and Injunction, which was issued by the Court and affirmed by the Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit. Motion denied.

MANDATE of USCA (Certified Copy) as to 486 Notice of Appeal filed by The Republic of Argentina, 478 Notice of Appeal filed by Euro Bondholders USCA Case Number 14-2922 (L). The Republic of Argentina, Euro Bondholders, and Fintech Advisory, Inc., appeal from the August 6, 2014 order of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (Thomas P. Griesa, Judge) clarifying that the Bank of New York Mellon ("BNY") was not in violation of the District Courts Amended February 23, 2012 Order. We conclude that this Court lacks jurisdiction because the Order appealed from is a clarification, not a modification, of the Amended February 23, 2012 Order. See Weight Watchers Int'l, Inc. v. Luigino's, Inc., 423 F.3d 137, 141 (2d Cir. 2005) ("An order reconsidering or interpreting a preliminary injunction... is not appealable."). The injunction, as issued, already prohibited BNY from assisting Argentina in evading its terms, and the Orders language concerning BNY's liability does not enjoin third parties, such as Euro Bondholders or Fintech, from bringing suit against BNY. Accordingly, the Order neither expands nor modifies the existing injunction. It is hereby ORDERED that the above appeals are CONSOLIDATED and DISMISSED for lack of jurisdiction. The motions to expedite, to enter certain briefing schedules, and to intervene are DENIED as moot. Catherine O'Hagan Wolfe, Clerk USCA for the Second Circuit. Issued As Mandate: 11/17/2014. (nd) (Entered: 11/17/2014)
ORDER: The Court will further defer the hearing on Citibank's September 22, 2014 motion by order to show cause to vacate the Court's July 28, 2014 order or to modify the injunction contained in that order, or for a stay of that Order (the "Motion") now scheduled for December 9, 2014, and will defer the date for briefs (now scheduled for November 21, 2014), to dates to be set after January 1, 2015, and will allow Citibank to process the December 31, 2014 interest payment, approximately $85 million, that it receives on the U.S. Dollar denominated Argentine law bonds, ISINs ARARGE03E113 and ARARGE03G688, and will further allow Citibank's downstream recipients to receive and process their respective portions of such payment. In the interim, it is the Court's direction that the parties and non-parties served with discovery related to the Motion cooperate in the production of relevant documents and information, so that the Court will have the benefit of a complete and accurate record in resolving the Motion.

AMENDED AND SUPPLEMENTAL ORDER: On September 29, 2014, pursuant to an order to show cause, the court held a hearing, at the conclusion of which it found that the Republic of Argentina was in civil contempt of court. The reasons for this finding were stated on the record. The court now reaffirms this finding, and incorporates it by reference in this order. Pursuant to Local Civil Rule 83.6(c), a finding of contempt should include a statement of conditions the performance of which will operate to purge the contempt. The court believes that it is clear what such conditions are. The Republic of Argentina will need to reverse entirely the steps which it has taken constituting the contempt, including, but not limited to, re-affirming the role of The Bank of New York Mellon as the indenture trustee and withdrawing any purported authorization of Nacion Fideicomisos, S.A. to act as the indenture trustee, and complying completely with the February 23, 2012 injunction. The current order amends and supplements the order of September 29, 2014. SO ORDERED. (Signed by Judge Thomas P. Griesa on 10/3/2014) (ajs) (Entered: 10/06/2014)

ORDER denying 417 Motion for Reconsideration: the court denies plaintiffs' motion for partial reconsideration at this time. Citibank may make payment on the interest due on the Repsol bonds and on both the peso- and dollar-denominated exchange bonds described in the Citibank order. However, the court will only allow this one-time payment on the dollar-denominated exchange bonds. After July 30, 2014, the court will rescind the Citibank order with regard to the dollar-denominated exchange bonds. To avoid future confusion, the parties are directed to devise a way to distinguish between the Repsol bonds and the exchange bonds before the next interest payment is due. (Signed by Judge Thomas P.

ORDER. In a letter dated June 23, 2014, and in a letter dated today, counsel for the Republic requests that the court stay certain injunctive relief. Such a request is not appropriate. The injunctive relief ordered by the court (dealing with the pari passu issue) does not even come into play unless the Republic makes payments to the exchange bondholders. The court has no control over whether or not the Republic makes such payments. A Special Master has been appointed to assist settlement negotiations. It is the understanding of the court that such negotiations will include the handling of any further payments due to exchange bondholders. The stay that is requested is denied. So ordered.

ORDER FOR APPOINTMENT OF SPECIAL MASTER: 1. The Court hereby appoints Daniel A. Pollack, 245 Park Avenue, New York City, as Special Master to conduct and preside over settlement negotiations between and among the parties to this litigation. 2. The Special Master may conduct and preside over such negotiations publicly or in camera, in whole or in part, and shall also be empowered to confer with the parties ex parte in his sole discretion. 3. The Special Master is not expected to file a report of the negotiations, but shall have the right to confer with the Court at such times and in such manner as he deems necessary and appropriate in his sole discretion. The Special Master shall not displace the Court in any respect and shall have no responsibility for or power to make any rulings of any kind in this litigation. 4. The Special Master shall have the right to use such other support persons (both lawyer and non-lawyer) to assist him in the carrying out of his responsibilities as he deems necessary and appropriate in his sole discretion. 5. The compensation of the Special Master, including fees and expenses incurred by him and others who assist him, shall be the responsibility of (a) the Republic of Argentina and (b) Elliot Capital Management and Aurelius Capital Management, and shall be borne equally between these two sides. All invoices of the Special Master shall be due and payable when rendered and the parties are instructed by the Court to pay all such invoices promptly. 6. The parties are instructed to give full co-operation to the Special Master in all respects in the negotiations and to provide the Special Master promptly with any and all information he may appropriately request and any and all logistical assistance which he may request. 7. The Court expressly finds that, in view of the limited scope of this appointment, except as expressly set forth in this Order the provisions of Rule 53 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure shall be of no applicability to this appointment and compliance therewith shall not be required of the Special Master.

ORDER: IT IS HEREBY: (1.)DECLARED that the Anti-Evasion Injunction of the March 5 Order has been and remains continuously in full force and effect. (2.) ORDERED that the Republic shall not-either directly or through any representative, agent, instrumentality, political subdivision, or other person or entity acting on behalf of the Republic-take any action to attempt to evade the purposes and directives of the Amended February 23 Orders, attempt to render those Orders ineffective, or attempt to diminish the Court's ability to supervise compliance with the Amended February 23 Orders, including without limitation, altering or amending the processes or specific transfer mechanisms by which it makes payments on the Exchange Bonds, without prior approval of the Court. This paragraph shall remain in effect during the pendency of any petition to the United States Supreme Court for a writ of certiorari with respect to the October 26 Opinion or the August 23 Opinion, any proceeding on the merits in the United States Supreme Court, and any proceedings on remand,unless a further order of the Court states otherwise. And as set forth herein. This Court shall retain jurisdiction to monitor and enforce this ORDER, and, on notice to the parties, to modify, amend, or extend it as justice requires to achieve its equitable purposes and to account for materially changed circumstances, including any failure by the Republic to abide by the terms of the ORDER. (Signed by Judge Thomas P. Griesa on 10/03/2013) (ama) (Entered: 10/03/2013)
OPINION: The significant point is that counsel for the Republic does not deny the factual allegations in plaintiffs' September 11, 2013 letter. In fact, there is a new problem that goes beyond the circumstances known as of the time of the March 5, 2012 order. Plaintiffs are surely within their rights to seek a remedy for this new problem. They do so in appropriate provisions in the proposed order. The court will sign the proposed order. SO ORDERED. (Signed by Judge Thomas P. Griesa on 10/03/2013) (ama) (Entered: 10/03/2013)
ORDER: For this reason, the court believes that the discovery requests should be set aside. Plaintiffs' motions to compel compliance are denied, and the non-parties' motions to quash the subpoenas are granted, all on the conditions described below. Plaintiffs have a right to make new discovery requests based on current circumstances, if they feel it is appropriate to do so. Cleary and the Euro Bondholders have a right to respond in the manner they deem appropriate. This order resolves the motions located at Doc. Nos. 42, 45, 48, and 51 (in case 10cv9587). SO ORDERED. (Signed by Judge Thomas P. Griesa on 9/27/2013) (ama) (Entered: 09/27/2013)
ORDER: IT IS HEREBY ORDERED THAT: The NML Motion to Compel is granted, and the Republic's NML Motion is denied, except that the Republic need not provide information regarding BNA in response to the alter ego sections of the NML Requests (i.e., section B. of the Interrogatories and section B. of the Document Requests). The Aurelius Motion to Compel is granted, and the Barclays Motion, the Citibank Motion, the Deutsche Bank Motion, and the Bank of America Motion are denied. The Republic's Scheck Motion is denied, and the Scheck's application to withdraw their application to extend the restraining notice contained in the Schecks' Restraining Notice and Information Subpoena is granted. The Republic shall produce all information responsive to the NML Requests (as limited by Paragraph 1 of this Order), the Aurelius Requests, and the Schecks' Restraining Notice and Information Subpoena within 30 days of the date of this Order. BNA, Bank of America, Barclays, Citibank, and Deutsche Bank (as defined in the Aurelius Subpoenas, including but not limited to each of their respective branches, affiliates and subsidiaries) shall produce all information responsive to the Aurelius Subpoenas wherever in the world it may be located within 75 days of the date of this Order. The parties shall engage in discussions regarding a reasonable search methodology that BNA, Bank of America, Barclays, Citibank, and Deutsche Bank can use to reduce the burden of locating such information. SO ORDERED. (Signed by Judge Thomas P. Griesa on 9/25/2013) (ama) (Entered: 09/26/2013)

ORDER: A non-party Citibank N.A. ("Citibank") filed a motion, and summarized the substance of that motion in a letter of May 23,2013. Plaintiffs sent a letter to the court on the same day opposing the application of Citibank. Citibank replied with a further letter on that date. Citibank asserts that it needs clarification as to its obligations in the event that the Court of Appeals affirms the District Court's November 21, 2012 rulings. The District Court declines to make any further comment on matters now before the Court of Appeals. What further ruling or action is required from the District Court will obviously depend on the holding from the Court of Appeals. No more can be said at this time. (Signed by Judge Thomas P.

The Republic is permanently PROHIBITED from taking action to evade the directives of this ORDER, render it ineffective, or to take any steps to diminish the Court's ability to supervise compliance with the ORDER, including, but not limited to, altering or amending the processes or specific transfer mechanisms by which it makes payments on the Exchange Bonds, without obtaining prior approval by the Court; This Court shall retain jurisdiction to monitor and enforce this ORDER, and to modify and amend it as justice requires to achieve its equitable purposes and to account for changing circumstances.

ORDER CONCERNING THE MARCH 5, 2012 ORDER re: (199 in 1:09-cv-10620-TPG). For the reasons stated in the Court's two opinions dated November 21, 2012, in the NML Capital, Ltd. v. The Republic of Argentina cases, Nos. 08 Civ. 6978, 09 Civ. 1707, and 09 Civ. 1708, which are incorporated herein, it is HEREBY ORDERED that: The provision in the March 5, 2012 Order staying the carrying out of the February 23, 2012 Orders is vacated and it is directed that the February 23, 2012 Orders, as now somewhat modified, are to be carried out forthwith. This means that the February 23, 2012 Orders will be applicable to the interest payments made to exchange bondholders in December 2012. In order to avoid confusion and to give some reasonable time to arrange mechanics, the Court specifies that the precise interest payment involved will be that of December 15, 2012. Counsel for Argentina is directed to consult with counsel for plaintiffs in order to arrive at the exact amount to be paid to plaintiffs and other mechanics. Since the Court of Appeals has not finally spoken on the subject of the calculation of the payment to plaintiffs, such payment is to be made into an escrow account, so that any adjustments required by the final Court of Appeals' ruling can be made. The Court will consult with counsel about the proper party or institution to hold the escrow account. Copies of this Order, together with copies of the Amended February 23, 2012 Orders, such amendments to be dated as of this date, will be promptly provided to the parties involved in payments to exchange bondholders, who will be on notice that the December 15, 2012 interest payments due to exchange bondholders cannot be made unless Argentina certifies that it is making the appropriate payment for the benefit of plaintiffs to the escrow account, either in advance of or concurrent with any payment to exchange bondholders.
